Hello people who read this and possibly future me!
This is going to be another rather pointless blog but iv just read a blog written by a lovely wee scottish lass called Mhairi and i thought ‘you know what? IM going to write a blog post right now’ then i came to wordpress, signed in (pfft) and started writing stuff, which leads up to now.
Finished a block of 5(ish) exams yesterday which is always nice, so i have a nice gap until my next exam on wednesday.. unfortunately a lot of revising will need to take place during this time but its all good, im more than half way now and it feels good so im just staying possitive and living for those moments after exams haha. Felt good to finish english FOREVER yesterday (or thursday, but im gonna write this as if its still friday from now on ok?)
Today i rejected having a huge lie in and instead decided to go into school and revise until about 3:30. ‘Nic, why would you do such a thing? revision is boring as hell!’ Heres the reason (it will probably involve me seeming like a crazy but heres my reasoning anyway):
(skip to the paragraph starting with a # if you want the short version of the story)
When i stay home on days with no exams and have nothing to do heres roughly what happens, wake up about 10:30, only fully awake by about 11:00 due to lack of motivation to do anything. Watch tv till about 12:00 lazily, turn pc on, get hooked into everything ever on the internet for a while till about 1 or 2 when i have lunch, after lunch try to start some revision but get bored and go back on pc then, continue on for the day having this horrible feeling that i should be revisiong but not having the will power to do anything about it. At about 6 or 7:00 i finally try to get something done but this usually only lasts for about an hour. At the end of the day i look back and see that iv done fuck all and iv wasted yet another day of potential studying and feel shit about it, also feel more pressure to work hard all day the next day.
Now heres what happens when i go to school, this is much simpler: wake up at either 7:00 and get a lift in with my brother, or wake up at about 9:00 and get the train to school.. im a fan of lie-ins so 9:00 it is.. get to school at about 10:15 (train is 9:45) go to library, get some real revision done due to no distractions and nothing better to do till about 12:20 (at 12:20 lunch for the whole school starts, therefore annoying lower years flood the library so theres no chance of getting any work done in there) and just have a break for the rest of lunch time. Then i go back to the library at 1:30ish (which is when exams start for people who are in school to do exams and also lunch time for everyone else ends) and revise till 3:30 and get a lift home with my brother. After that its like 4:00 and iv dont shit loads of revision, i feel tired but happy with how much iv done and i have the whole rest of the day to do whatever the fuck a want without feeling that i should be donig work… mint.
#So yeah, thats the long winded way of explaining why i do that… although when i get asked why i came in voluntarily by the poeple who DO have exams on the day i just say something along the lines of ‘cus at home i wouldnt get any wont done and i need to’ … i should of just put that in my blog… im gonna put a warning at the top of this post about that xD
I cant think of anything else to put in this at the moment but its long enough as it is tbh so yeah, have a nice day…
