A Christmas holiday in Yorkshire - Lifestyle Monday

By -

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, 

As I'm sure many of you already know, I spent part of my Christmas holiday in Yorkshire with my family. We stayed in an Air B&B next to Robin Hood's Bay, where we celebrated Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and Boxing Day and it was a lot of fun. My mum got the inspiration to go to Yorkshire for Christmas when she watched an episode of the Hairy Bikers on the TV and saw them cooking amazing seafood on the beach of Robin Hood's Bay and she thought it would be the perfect opportunity to go and see the place for ourselves. During our stay, we went on a lot of walks by the sea and we were able to see the house in which the Hairy Bikers had stayed in which was pretty cool. The only shoes we had brought with us were our walking boots as they were the most practical for the hilly terrain. We didn't do too much hiking this time as there was a biting cold and staying out for long periods of time zapped the energy out of you very quickly. However, we were thankfully able to walk by the beaches of Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby which was a great way to unload any mental garbage. It turns out I cried on Christmas Eve! 😂💜 It's okay, everything seems to be fine now but I was just overthinking all the work I had to do with regards to the start of the mock exams in January. I was on holiday but at times it was difficult to relax fully because I had small pieces of revision to do. The sea walks really helped though to unwind. When faced with the prowess of the great ocean all your problems seem to turn insignificant. Perhaps crying on Christmas Eve was not the most convenient thing but it's no good bottling everything in either. You have to express yourself, it doesn't matter what the day. Thankfully though, Christmas was an enjoyable time spent with family, watching silly films, and eating lots of food. I got gifted roller skates for Christmas which I'm keen to try out as another way to unwind. I'll keep you updated on my progress with regards to that. On Boxing Day, we went to see the ruins of the Whitby Monastery. It was beautiful and a great way to end a great holiday in Yorkshire!

"They shall not grow old,as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them,nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them." To the 60 people that died during WW1 in my village. Many of them were either buried in the location that they fell or were missing and never found.  "Their name liveth for evermore." Rudyard Kipling From my trip to the Somme and Arras. In Flanders fields- John Mccrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses,row on row, That Mark our place; and in the sky The larks,still bravely singing,fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived,felt dawn,saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved,and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not slee

Somme and Arras trip photos

By jujupage1 -

I went on a year 9 history trip to the Somme and Arras. I visited loads of WW1 memorials and as a group we discussed wether or not they were the right way to remember them by. I also visited trenches. Some were left as they were and some were made today as they would be 100 years ago. We discussed which one was the best way to preserve the history of the trenches.  I also visited a mine. I forgot to take photos but we visited a quarry and a mine 20 metres underground that was used for a secret attack against the Germans. This was during the battle of Arras. All of these places however were so overwhelming to see but places I would definitely recommend going to. How should we remember the soldiers that died in WW1?

Finding something new to study

By jujupage1 -

Hello Jujubears and welcome to another blog post, Today, I am going to be doing something a little bit different. I've been on the hunt for something new to study. I looked up 'interesting things to study' and it came up with: How to pickle your own vegetables (?!) Learn a new language ( I am bilingual) Learn to code (been doing enough of that already) Find out more about microbiology (too complicated) I just wanted to find out more about a particular subject. So then I searched up 'interesting SUBJECTS to study'. It came up with this: Mathematics (I'm on holiday)  English (again, I'm on holiday) Complete study and practice of geography ( again,again, I'm on holiday) So I thought. I've been really enjoying history. Let's search up some fun history topics to study. It came up with this. Korean war (meh) Franco-Spanish war (mmh) The Crusades (maybe later) Holocaust (interesting, I've been studying that) So as y
