1.
Get into Cambridge I guess? That'd be really good but I'm aiming to get and meet a Warwick offer if that doesn't happen.
2.
Revise phys/comp sci for at least 30 minutes each day so it all doesn't pile up at the end of the year.
3.
Do well in the maths challenges this year (a distinction in BMO2? maybe?)
4.
Actually exercising would be good (going to aim for 3 times a week but we'll see.)
5.
I'd quite like to do some sort of project in maths (probably reading and writing up blog posts on some sort of topic but I'm not really sure) but that'll really be time dependent.

Maths club got (kind of) advertised? It's been missed out of the clubs list but clubs fair went well (okay, a couple of people took pity on me and wandered over to play a game on Nim with me but we'll take the wins where we can get them.) I also managed to talk for the whole of club fair - chalking that up as a win!
•
My new physics teacher has been letting me work at my own pace rather than insisting I work at the speed of the class so that's been going much faster.
•
I've kind of finished the computer science course? I've got a lot of exam practice to do and desperately need to review quite a lot of the topics but it means I can start looking at papers now, which is nice.
•
Okay, I've only just remembered that I can't (under any circumstances) program in C#. Which, when that's supposed to be my language, is absolutely marvelous. So far this just means a lot of googling but it's slow going (like an hour for a couple of lines mostly because who knows how to program a class? Not me!) so it's hard work just sitting down and getting on with it. I'm probably going to mostly give that a break for this week and focus a little bit more on theory then start making deadlines for the code in the hopes that I'll actually manage to finish before Christmas. Fingers crossed...
•
Didn't do much maths which always seems to make everything else harder so I need to remember to make time to actually do some this week!
•
I did nothing over the weekend. Or Monday after school. Or Tuesday after school. It either feels like every task I do is just so big and overwhelming that I can't even start or that I just have way too much stuff to do. I don't know. I'm working on breaking things down more which should hopefully help!

That maths test. No. Just... No.
