    lol, I was talking about it with my teacher on Tuesday.
    Whenever I know I got revision to do I always think... it would be easier if I tidyed up first lol. Or sorted out this or rearanged that.... guess its the minds way of constructively avoiding revision.

    Revision also makes me really tired... I also notice sometimes when I read I read but don't read... I sort of just process the individul words when I am tired and then have to re-read the passage and can't even remember reading it lol.

    I am so lazy
    :dito:

    and you can tell I'm desperate, because normally I live in a pigsty

    My room is normally spotless, but at revision time, it gets worse for some reason!

    But if I do decide to actually do some, I will tidy up a bit first

    Yeh when there are exams on my room has notes spread across the carpet, piled on the bed, on the desk, chair and shelf. You can't actually walk through the room. It is a bit better at the moment but still not tidy! So revision makes me more untidy!

    I just spent most of the day tidying my room in an attempt to make the environment "more suitable for studying".
