Freaking out...And a possible story idea?
So, I have my SAT's from Tuesday. I'm not really that worried about my Science and English exams, but I'm freaking out over my Maths. Seriously, I'm so worried that I feel sick and want to cry and...yeah. My teacher has put me into the 6-8 tier which is stupid, as I've been barely scraping a six on my practice exams. I did a practice paper on my own, just the paper A, and I got 12 out of 60. No joke. How the hell am I supposed to do the highest paper?!
I'm a little worried about my Science but not too much. And English I'm pretty confident with - On my mocks I got 92 out of 100 and I didn't lose any marks on my shorter writing task at all. It's mainly the Shakespeare exam and a couple of silly mistakes on the reading paper (not reading the questions carefully enough and getting sources from the wrong paragraph etc) that made me lost those eight marks. So, for my English, I'm pretty set.
But I'm still having a panic attack. Oh well, when I flunk my Maths it's my teachers fault for making me sit the wrong paper.
Also, I had a random idea for a story a while ago. It would be a My Chem fic, possibly a Freard...But the basic idea would be that, Frank is diagnosed with a terminal illness, but he finds that as he gets sicker, he develops powers...Kinda God-like powers I suppose. He can heal people etc...Everyone but himself. And others things like, random miracles etc. I'm not giving more away because that would totally ruin the plot, but I was wondering if anyone would read it. It sounds really stupid now that I've written it down, but in my head I have it allll planned out. It's not as stupid or over-the-top as it sounds, promise. I probably will write it as a Freard, but it wouldn't be the main central point of the story, and it would be purely focusing on the emotional side of the relationship...Boy sex is a no no. Sorry, but this is too much of a...Personal story I guess for me to work something like sex into it. =/ Plus at some parts of the story, Frank's character is going to be pretty seriously ill and it seems kinda sick to me to have two characters fucking when one of them is dying.
It's loosely titled "Legacy" as of right now. I'm not very good at coming up with titles, and the idea randomly came to me when listening to the Natalie Nordeman song by the same name, and it just fits. The song really has nothing to do with the story, but it will probably on the playlist. It's a beautiful song, I really recommend it, it's by a Christian singer but I'm not religous and I love it.
Anyway, I'm rambling now. Im gonna go now and avoid doing SATs revison by focusing on making this story as good and uncliche as possible. =)

SATs are fine. GSCE's are horrible. I've got four this year and the rest next. I'm crapping myself cuz it's the real thing and my first one is next week.

Practice SATs are far harder than the real thing. When I was studying for SATs I was like "Oh god, oh god I'm gonna fail so bad."
But I was fine. Don't worry too much about it; SATs are to determine how much progress you've made since primary school, and what set you'll be in next year and such. They don't determine your future. Also, if you for some reason do really bad, they take into account how well you usually do in class, too.
Just study as much as you can, but don't worry too much; they're really not that bad.
