only two weeks left of term! honestly it cannot come fast enough. even though I know I'll be revising for mocks the entire time, I just want to have a little bit of freedom back in my day.
last weekend I finally decided to try and get my head around notion and I think I actually really like it? just call me unjaded jess. I also actually did some revision bc I didn't understand my homework and uh,, it helped? I understood things? a wild concept. but also I had a breakdown about my personal statement and it's basically now entirely different but anywayyy we move.
biologywith one teacher we looked at the structure of the brain, and we did a practical about reflexes (the classic drop and catch a ruler) and drank knockoff coke to try and gauge the effects of caffeine, but it didn't really work lol. the coke also tasted kinda gross
with the other teacher we looked at the kidneys yet again, this time at the collecting duct. I actually think I understand it! all the stuff we're doing atm is really interesting.
mathsfinished moments and did the end of unit test on it! didn't go too badly (I hope)
also did the entirety of the regression lines chapter but not sure any of it really went in oops. test on that next week. also did my binomial expansion test so hopefully that also went okay. and we started looking at cosec/sec/cot and their graphs which is uh for sure something.
germanyet more racism stuff. also did some speaking and man my mouth just works ten times faster than my brain when I try and speak german lol. also did some more character studies for the play and I've been writing my essay for that. I ALSO had a chat w my teacher about my IRP and I think I have a rough idea of what my points are going to be, even if I'm still working on my question title since I initially picked a fairly broad topic and I'm finding specific parts of it more interesting as I go.
otherhad a driving lesson. my test feels so far away but all the cancellations I'm getting texted are like.. 2 days in advance and I feel like I need at least a bit more warning for that. oh and after my breakdown over my personal statement I've edited it a bit and I think I like it more now. I'm going to send it to my tutor again on Monday and I'm aiming to get it sent off ideally next week, if not early the week after. aah!! this week has been kinda rough, partially since it's just heavier in terms of lessons and partially just.. because. y'know? here's to a productive weekend!
