Feeling good, for once :h:

Feeling like a bad cat mum :frown:

I bought my cats their usual cat food yesterday and wondered why they weren't eating much of it and I put it down to the heat since it was roasting here yesterday but this morning I had actually looked at the tin and seen it was dog food instead :facepalm: My cats fave cat food is Asda's Tiger brand and their version of the dog food looks the exact same except for a small pic of a dog on the front and the case I picked up the other day was in the bloody cat section, not the dog section. Ah well, they have their cat food now and I bought them some fish to make it up to them but I think I am still in the bad books :colondollar: I'll donate the dog food to my local SSPCA centre :yep:
Worried.
Worrying about Moon also.
I just feel empty and yet again very disillusioned with university. I can't bring myself to revise, it just feels pointless. Definitions have a lifespan of a couple of days in my head; I spend time focusing on one module rather than another and bam, everything I learned just falls through the cracks. Probably a matter of lifelong poor technique, but it's worked for me so far, so who knows. I've done basically all the papers and there's pretty much nothing fresh for me to practice in most cases. The exam I revised most for in the first batch I absolutely screwed up, while I could be looking at 90+ in one that I didn't even learn all the content in. It all seems arbitrary and random.

And what's really the best outcome for me at this point? Sure I could boss these exams and get a score in the 80s again. But how much does that really do for my life? I know I can probably get over the 65 line with minimal effort, and that's all I really need. I suppose the idea is to make it easier to get a first in the long run. But what's so good about that either? Would be better to have a 2:1 plus some actual life skills. I have no plans for the Summer, no internship, not even any chance of a crappy Summer job considering where I live and my lack of experience.
Tired

On the plus side, you'll have no problem identifying Lebesgue-Stieltjes measures and can almost certainly count to a squillion.
Stressed because for the first time in my life (apart from exams), I am without my music!
Can't focus on anything without music!
GCSE. Bye.
just wish this virus would Go Away. :s-smilie: :s-smilie: :s-smilie: :s-smilie: :s-smilie:

I feel the same way sometimes. Perhaps you could do random questions from textbooks to mix it up a little? Try not to think about the pointlessness of life during exams. Focus on the present for now. Good luck for the exams :smile:
