10/11/17 Update - What a Week So it's Friday and I'm absolutely exhausted, trying to keep on top of things throughout the week rather than letting myself get behind is actually so tiring, but writing this GYG is what's giving me the willpower to carry on through. Who knew writing a blog would be the solution to my procrastination problems aye?!
Today I woke up at 7AM ready to get the bus at 8, I sacrificed breakfast to instead put makeup on because I felt disgusting. On any other day this would have been a bad idea but it paid off today because I got food in both my morning lessons
First lesson I had Computer Science and it was Design section coursework deadline day but I got it done so it was all ok!
Our teacher was back after his 6 week sick period so it was a rather strange and slightly emotional lesson. I first got the test back which I did on Wednesday based on computer networks and I got 35/45 which was 1 mark off an A!
I'll let myself off though because I've never completed a test in worse conditions than I did that one, so I'm using that as an excuse for myself.
My teacher then went through my coursework with me, he spent half an hour looking through it and comparing it to the mark scheme. He seemed fairly impressed with the vast majority of things but just wanted to clarify what I needed to do for the test plan subsection. Admittedly I had no idea what to write for that part so completely winged it. He actually seemed really impressed with me though so I'm pretty pleased. He also started to try and explain how I should go about coding my program, which completely went over my head, but I nodded along anyway.
I then got a brownie at the end of the lesson that sir had made because he'd come back (How cute!
)
Second period I had a half lesson of Further Maths, I was the last person to walk in, having just finished eating my brownie, and as I walked in my teacher handed me a whole pack of Oreos and said "no one else in the class likes these so looks like they're all yours." Safe to say I didn't have a very healthy morning.
I then spent my whole half hour on one Kinematics question that just went horribly wrong and I had to try and rectify it all. Then in the next half of second period we had a one day early remembrance day ceremony on the school yard, it was absolutely freezing outside though and I regrettably didn't take my coat!
I then had just under two hours of free period in which I completed a Maths end of topic homework sheet on the Product and Quotient rules. I didn't get anything else done in this time because I went out to Costa in the middle....
Finally I had Maths where I completed a mass of questions on solving equations involving the modulus function, and was just very fed up of graph sketching by the end.
Once I got home after a nightmarish bus journey I'd completely gone off the idea of doing more work, so instead I put on the third episode of Stranger Things 2. Watching one episode at a time is definitely enough for me! Then I went to Nando's for a meal with all my friends which was really nice. But honestly now all I want to do is curl up in my bed, under a huge pile of blankets, and go to sleep.
Below is a list of things I plan to get done this weekend:
• Mechanics 2 sheet of Kinematics Questions (Homework due 16/11.)
• Finish off the small amendments that need to be made to my Computer Science coursework Design section.
• Begin to make an attempt at developing a Network within a GUI for my Computer Science coursework.
• Get my first lot of Christmas shopping done, and buy myself some new black jeans because I somehow managed to lose mine?! How you lose a pair of jeans I really have no idea but I somehow managed to do it.
Thats all for today!
