aloue1's a level journey
Is it too late to jump into this? I don't know, but I'm going to do it anyway. I'm currently in Year 12 studying English Literature, History and Mathematics. English Literature is my favourite subject and I'd be super happy if I ended up studying it at a top uni. As for hobbies, I love reading and writing (hence why I enjoy English Lit so much). I love listening to music and go to quite a few concerts (queuing for so long kind of ruins the fun though!).
My target grades are A* (lit), A* (history) , A (maths). but they are aspirational targets given by the school and might change over the course of the next two years.
It's currently half-term, which so far has not been very productive for me. Yes, a break is needed, but it's definitely time to get back into productive mode! Today I have been doing my scene summaries for A Streetcar Named Desire, which I hope to finish off by the end of the evening.
I'll try and update this as often as possible.

Productivity
Back again! During GCSEs last school year, I was always really productive everyday. During term time I am also normally really productive during my frees. However as said before, in this first half term I am struggling a bit with how much work I'm completing vs how much I expect myself to do.
Possible solutions might be:
- make to-do lists each day, slowly building up amount of tasks & finding out how much I can actually do in a day
- going to the library/working in a different environment
- relaxing a bit! i think I burnt myself out during term time which is why I'm struggling to get things done
If anyone has any tips they'd be greatly appreciated!
