i cant do it... ARGH so hard

Hi, im on my last year in 6th form, so applying to uni next year, so obv this year is v important. when i started this year i did everything right, i.e. revise everything i learnt in class, doing hwk and stuff.

and now im back to my old self again, going on computer all day, and not getting much work done mainly due to that i cannot concentrate. when i get home i just cant stay away from my computer for sum reason (sad i no)

so wat im asking is are there any advice u guys can give that can help me to stay away from the pc and concentrate/focus on my work.

Thanks :redface:

Gte the Interent cut off if possible, if you really need the Interent use sixth form/libraries. Get a voluntary ban from TSR and any other forums you use. If you don't do those things then you don't want to get off here too quickly, which could affetc your grades. Make the right decision. :p:

Get your parents to hide the cable/vital part of the computer and tell them not to give it back to you on pain of death.

try blackmailing urself at the moment i'm having a similar problem today is my last day of procrastination. i ahve this great new plan for my use of TSR what i do i get home from school (as of 2mr) open up in new tabs all the intereseting things i can see on the main scereen of TSR read them comment on them and then leave TSR alone for another 2 hours then after those 2 hours rinse and repeat. MSN is going to have to stay running because it just does. Youtube a limit of 3 videos every 2 hours. and erm what else +44 online forum once a night, there cannot be two lots of new news in one other time. then every hour one five minute break to indulge in bonus of any of the above. that should work just fine and i here by declare my alleginance to keeping this promise.

th eirony of this 'helping students' forum pissing away my education dam u and ur addictive glory :p:

Just revise your exam technique and lock youself in your room like 1month before exams and u'll be fine.
