    Today:

    Before College:

    * Learn Peripheral Systems Notes


    During College:

    * Mechanics Past Paper And Mark 82%

    * Core 3 Past Paper And Mark
    69%


    After College:

    * Write Up Brain Notes



    Now:

    * Draw And Label Diagrams Of The Brain and The Nervous System



    Kind of had enough for today. As I've done 7 hours outside lesson time, I think I deserve a break!

    Am dropping English on Monday, cannot wait! Fingers crossed this will be the third time lucky, the other two times I've been convinced to stay...

    This weekend:

    *Full past paper (timed)
    *Plan out first two paragraphs of philosophy essay
    *answer all the history questions on handout today
    *Spanish - reading, writing and vocab tests
    *A section of Germany notes and revision of the early Nazi years


    Feels so good not to have to add an English essay to that

    Wish I could drop physics. I don't know what possessed me to continue it to A2, I really don't.

    Try and stand your ground this time!

    Aww, it'll be over soon enough (six months or so, right?) and you never have to do it ever again, ever!

    I will try, hopefully they won't gang up on me this time

    Just did some more reading on Computing Unit 2. Also starting to read some examiner reports to get some extra hints :P

    Will go to bed soon. I feel lonely as if I'm the only one studying late tonight? Am I on my own here?
