24 days till Ramadan

I had a galentine day with friends :smile:.. We made shrek cake and watch the whole of My Demon together and it was fun!
Also, it was sad I had to reject someone :frown:
How was yours?

Yesterday:
Chemistry C7 : Do exam-style questions .. in my opinion this is the easiest topic in Paper 2
Maths: Do a maths paper
I really thought I would get a lot more done but anyways

Today:
Going to be all humanities based:

•Re-read Inspector Calls
•Take notes of a Massolit and Grow your Grades video about Ozymandias
•RE: Create a poster on the Nature of God (Islam)

Reply 21

Update:

I did past questions on Biology (Nervous System and homeostasis)

Re-read Inspector Calls

Did smart-revise ( CPU, Memory, Boolean Logic )

Further Maths (Simultaneous equations)

Those were completely off what I wanted to do today.. I'm glad I did do something

Tomorrow:

Biology Intervention at skl (10am - 12 pm)

Chemistry Intervention at skl (12:30 to 14:30 pm)

This time I am waking up early

Adios!

❤️ My fave thing about the gyg community is seeing other people thrive because it just pushes you to want to be like them. I met someone the other day not on tsr but she had done sooo much and knew so many things and was so put together and I was like you are who I want to be! Gyg has the same effect.

Also lol my effort varies tbh, some days i’ll write loads and others I just put my to-do list. Depends on my energy 😂

1 more day till school - Monday is inset day
20 days till Ramadan

Today:

Did Kumon - still haven't caught up

Did English homework (Sheila Birling and Article Reading about Wordsworth and the Sublime)

FINALLY finished Physics P5 (Forces) - Maybe Physics isn't that bad...the more time I spend on it I just realise how its because I have a close mind. The best thing for me in order to understand it is just trying to relate it with real life situations

Had maths and English Tutoring (Revision of solving Quadratics)

Did English Language Paper 2 (q3)

Reminder : First mock is on Thursday (Spanish Speaking) . My teacher got us questions she would ask on the exam but tbh I end up forgetting and making it up as I go. Not good. I'm wondering what would be the best way to revise this?

Goodnight :smile:

Well, I have a bad cold and I am losing my voice today suddenly ... I think its because I left my windows open and some kid in my family gave it to me 😒. What a good way to enter school tomorrow :frown:

What I plan to do today:

Write an essay on An Inspector Calls (45 mins)

Create a poster on the second topic of RE (Punishment and Justice)

Revise flashcards on Anki (Chemistry and Biology)

Do a maths paper

Do Kumon

Prepare for school tomorrow


It is soo weird when everyone is going to skl and I'm not. See if I'll be able to have an update today or maybe tommoz (if I have time that is)

Well .. what a long day! What I planned to do took longer than expected

What I did today:
•Write an essay on An Inspector Calls (45 mins)
•Revise flashcards on Anki (Chemistry and Biology)
•Do a maths paper - I feel like this is the one I love the most in terms of revision... its soo satisfying doing these papers :smile:
•Do Kumon - I'm getting the hang of integrals now which is pleasant

Since music sometimes does not help me concentrate... I found out that listening to crime podcasts allow me to concentrate more. It just meaningful to listen to

I am not prepared for skl.. i can't bring myself to go sleep. So instead I'm reading the book chosen by the TSR book club - 'The girl with the Dragon tattoos'.
I have finally reached the 200th episode of One Piece... yaaayy 🎉🎉

It a bit late now and this illness isn't going away... at this rate I might be late for skl tommoz
How my day goes :

1.

RE

2.

Biology

3.

Computer Science

4.

Computer Science (yes double with no break in between :frown:.. its not bad but ye)

5.

Maths

6.

Extra period : Physics


Anyways,
Have a good night sleep and Peace

I haven't posted for a while now but we move on...

Friday:
I had my first mock which was Spanish speaking exam.. well it was quite good ig.. I had really weird questions on my photocard like 'When you were younger what ambition did you have' and 'is it important to have good salary' and with that time pressure and invigilators looking at me I FORGOT the word for 'I wanted'.. i especially memorised that but it went down my head. ☹️ So I had to improvise

Reflection (Spanish Mock):
WWW: It was good to memorise my theme question because that rly helped me unlike last time when I didn't
EBI: Try to pause and think of what you would say for surprise questions and don't muffle your words.

Mocks (Next Monday):
English Lang Paper 2

Today's Plan

Physics:

Complete the rest of electromagnetism

Begin revising for waves topic

English Language:

Try a past paper (Q1, Q2, Q3)

Watch a video on all of the questions - i keep switching watching English teachers.. can someone suggest a good and helpful person to watch?

Creative Media

Complete my ideas log - I finally decided to do a magazine on table tennis

Computer Science:

Smart revise (Memory, Network, CPU)

Make flashcards on network topic

Chemistry:

Revise C7


I feel like this is a lot but since mocks is approaching i need to do much more.. Im soo sad Marry my husband has finished.. my rating (4.6/5). Gonna start Doctor Slump now

Approx 15 days till Ramadan

Hope everything is alright with all of you.. update later :smile:
