- Name: M.C
•
- Age: 16 (year 11 - equivalent to AS level I think!)
•
- Subjects: Advanced English, English Ext 1, Advanced Maths, Philosophy, Modern History, Legal Studies, Economics
•
Was very sick last night so stayed at home today - my body was feeling quite weak
•
I missed out on only 2 classes today so I luckily minimised my academic damage
•
I self-studied legal studies today: I read the beginning of the new topic in the textbook and made some basic notes
•
organised my notes, books and syllabus
•
English extension is pretty much a lost cause for now: we do nothing in class except read summaries out loud each lesson - I'm hoping it will pick up soon
•
I read a lot today - Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck and a philosophy book
•
Had a novel idea but couldn’t flesh it out and put it down on paper - the idea of an epic intergenerational family novel lingers in my mind
•
I watched an entire miniseries in a few hours- Collateral was good escape from the day
•
Focused session of maths study: pages of precalculus questions and a test paper from another school
•
Starting to realise how therapeutic maths is for my frazzled, stressed mind
•
spent a few hours working on advanced maths problems; took a break by watching University Challenge (i love it so much god bless)
•
lost track of time and eventually had to sleep for my health - I did get a lot of maths done!
•
I went back to school today and was feeling very peppy
•
nothing much to report; classes were fine and I'd read ahead
•
watched an hour-long philosophy lecture by Michael Sandel in Philosophy class - fascinating!
•
I had two hours of maths tuition today - I'm starting to love maths, particularly the pleasure and calm that comes with solving problems
•
I think I've improved massively since I've started having faith and confidence in myself and finding joy in maths
•
My standing in class has boosted recently - the teacher often refers to me for answers
•
I sit next to the first in class and we always turn to each other to validate our answers. He's super nice and can always pinpoint my mathematical slipups
•
I'm just really proud of myself since I've always put myself down as terrible at maths. Turns out I just need to put in the effort and have more confidence in myself
