But, I’ve never seen geese on the beach before! I could have been imagining things but, I surely wouldn’t have got so scared if I saw them! I tried running from them and they kept following me! Let’s just say, I am never going back for the time future haha I've been chased by geese as well, so relatable MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm scared for all my other exams to be truly honest but I'll face the fear and do them anyway Oooh that's a cool approach, I usually see which question appeals to me most and ease myself into the exam by doing the 2 markers and then find the big markers and focus on those - i tend to jump around the exam haha so your approach sounds much better Thank youu! I'm hoping to learn how to do a rock to fakie and finally try dropping in but my park have really steep ramps - sadly nothing small and mellow like a mini ramp to gain confidence on Yayyy I am super happy to hear that, that brunch spot sounds sooo yummy what was your fav thing you ate there? Also the boat trip mustve been so much fun!!! Awwww bless you! Hope you have fun at the BBQ and the summer fete! Thank you for the good luck Aurora (will deffo come in handy haha) Thank you for your amazing tips, lovely updates and for the luck Good morning @jazzy.sky, I'm not sure if you already had your maths exam. If so, I hope it went really well. If not, good luck, good luck, good luck . I hope you'll find all the questions easy, even the big marker ones. Easing yourself in by doing the 2 markers first sounds like a very sensible approach Hopefully you'll feel less nervous about tomorrow's exam as it's another DT one and it sounds like your fist Dt one went really well I hope you had a good weekend and you got to go skating lots. Did you manage to drop in and do a rock to fakie? It is a pity you only have steep ramps. I would imagine it would be so much easier to practice on a mini ramp first!! My favourite thing was this flat bread with different spices and a bit of crumbled cheese, dipped in this super yummy grilled pepper dip Just talking about it makes me hungry haha What kind of foods do you like? 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did get stopped getting chased by geese. Got so scared! I hate birds no matter if they’re small or big like that! How are you? :)! Sorry to hear that @Megs- That sounds super scary. I think geese are pretty territorial so this seems to happen quite regularly that people get chase by geese How are you feeling now? Better I hope MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good morning lovely Aurora!! How are you today? Thank you so muchhhh!! my exam is today at 13:30-16:00 and I'm feeling nervous haha Thank youuu DT is less of a worry as I'm very passionate about it but still somewhat scared for tomorrow too haha Awww thank you! I did get to go skating on saturday but the skatepark was full of parents watching the football match on the pitch next to it so I couldn't go, so I did some street skating on the roads in my neighbourhood instead! That was really fun Yesss, I really wished there was a mini ramp to practice on instead of these huge ones Oooooh that sounds superb!!! now im craving some I am honestly a big foodie so anything will do but I love spicy foods and I have a salty tooth so anything savoury is a win with me! I only have a few things I don't like but if I went to a friend's house and they served it, I'd eat it anyway to not be rude How about you?

I am feeling a bit under the weather today , which is why I am going to log off a little earlier today. Hopefully things will be back to normal by Thursday and I will be feeling better by then. Before I go I just wanted to say, that I will be thinking of you during your exam! I hope they give you a better space this time, so you can see the clock. If not, don't be afraid to ask if you can be moved. Are you by yourself in the library or are there others around you? Remember, you've prepared for this and you can do this !! Are you already at school? If not, you might find it helpful to do some calming activities to do to take your mind off things before it's time to leave for school. Maybe a guided meditation, listening to relaxing music or even just messaging us here at Ditch the Label :-) I also quite like to go for a run before an important task as this helps me to clear my head. I don't know if that's the same for you? You've got this @jazzy.sky! I will reply to the rest of your message when I am back online on Thursday - I hope that's OK 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you had a wonderful day - despite having to write an exam. Hopefully, having your birthday on an exam day means that you automatically ace your exam !! Did you get to do anything nice on your birthday? I hope you will have the chance to celebrate on another day as well (without any exam pressure) ? In fact you should just turn this week into your birthday week - how does that sound ? How did your other exam go? Good, I hope Only one more to go! You can do this!! I'm feeling a lot better, thank you so much Still have a runny nose and a bit of a cough but nothing too bad... I'm a big foodie, too. Like you I like spicy stuff. I must admit, I do have a sweet tooth as well I just don't like mixing the two. Definitely not a fan of any sweet and sour dishes. I love all kinds of different cousins - I think Thai, Chinese and Mexican are probably my favourite but there are so many more I like. What about you? What are some of your favourites dishes? 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awwwww thank you Aurora!! hahaha yess, I think birthday luck did come along yesterday to help me that extra bit! It was a good paper, completely different to how my teachers and I had expected it to be but still good! I got to relax at home and build some lego which was so much fun! And my parents were super kind and took me out for a walk and surprised me with a lego set to go with the set im currently building! They are simply amazing! Mum made a delicious strawberry and cream Victoria sponge cake (one of my favourites) so that was super yum Ooooh I'd love a birthday week! After exams and things, I'm planning to have a day out with friends Yayyyy aww I'm so glad to hear you are feeling better, be sure to drink loads and rest as much as you can, sending healing hugs Ooooh yessss, yummmm I've never had the honour of tasting proper Chinese or Thai but I bet its delicioussss I love anything spicy, love Italian food, as well as Caribbean and Pakistani dishes thank you for everything Aurora MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love your optimism and enthusiasm for everything Happy Friday by the way !! Do you have anything nice planned for this weekend? That's great that your exam went well and it sounds like you had a really nice birthday, too. I love Victoria Sponge cake and home bakes ones are always the best That's so cool that you are into building Lego. I used to have loads of Lego as a kid and spent hours building it but then didn't use Lego for years, Funnily enough this Christmas we decided to get the Home Alone Lego set to build as a family and I loved it. I forgot how satisfying it is when you complete a build and it's pretty calming, too when you do it. Is there any Lego in particular that you enjoy doing? You should insist on a birthday week . I feel with all the exam stress going on you deserve it!! Great that you've made plans to have a day out with your friends. That will be really nice. Is that planned for this weekend or for after you've finished your last exam? I do love Italian and Caribbean food as well and I love the spices that go into Pakistani food (and Indian). In fact I now want a curry . If you like spicy food you should try Chinese or Thai at some point if you can- I think they are both delicious. 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always brighten my day and its always so lovely hearing from you Oooh yes Happy Friday!! I had a bit of a lazy morning as I dont have school today which was so nice - got to catch up on sleep my weekend will most likely be just revision (hopefully skating and going for nice walks too!) How about yourself Aurora, any plans? Also any updates on your wellbeing- are sniffles slightly better today? Awww I still have some Victoria sponge cake so I'll save you a slice! Ooooh, any sets that you remember really enjoying as a kid? I bet the home alone set was so cool once finished - and im so glad you and the family had a great time building it too!! To be honest I love any lego because lego is lego I especially like how lego stimulates my fine motor skills and coordination (something ive always had trouble with) but I love lego city (especially the sets from the early 2010's) lego creator sets (the 3 in 1) and lego technic - because the lego has functionality and I love the 3 in 1s because you can break the lego up and rebuild it into something new! How about you Aurora? Awww thank youu smm, I'll see what I can do - hopefully a birthday weekend can happen! As for the day out, that's planned for after exams because that way my friends aren't stressed either and we can all relax knowing we never have to go to school again (which is crazy to think about!) Awww bless you, if you do get a curry save a crumb for me! Its officially on my bucket list to try Chinese and Thai someday so I'll let you know when I have the chance of trying it!

How nice that you had a morning to chill and catch up on some sleep. It makes sense that you have planned your day out with your friends for after your exams. Especially if you have lots of revision to do this weekend. The 3 in 1 Lego sets are really good and I know what you mean about loving lego because it's lego I had quite a bit of Lego city and also any lego set with a horse in it . I used to ride a lot as a kid so the lego sets with horses were my favourite! I am feeling a lot better, thank you. I do have an exciting weekend planned - I am off on holiday on Sunday so I will be packing and getting everything ready tomorrow. It does mean that I won't be online for three weeks though but I am already looking forward to catching up with everyone once I get back. I'm therefore going to wish you good luck for your exam on Tuesday (I think it's Tuesday, right?) today !! Last exam - you can do this . Hopefully you'll be feeling less nervous as you've done all your other exams already. You've got this. Enjoy the great feeling once all your exams are over and I will catch up with you, once I am back online. 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
