✨Year 12 Journey For Productivity✨



Hi everyone! I'm a fellow procrascinator with ambitious goals who wants to manage life and school. Hopefully this GYG will help me plan my week and STICK to those plans, as well as get advice from other college students. If there's anything you need to know about me is that if I set a goal - I will try my best to reach it. I try for every opportunity I can, I like learning and meeting new people, but I also like relaxing a bit every night and hanging out with friends every week. Welcome to my page, I hope I don't bore you 😂

How was gym today??

Actually was just about to update 😂

Gym was actually so good, my friend was really nice and we spent an hour trying a bunch of different things and because we were talking it didn't feel so bad - I know it's only been one session but I feel like it's a start and I'm a bit stronger now.

I'm behind on my list... lessons 3 and 4 got overtook by comp work, my teacher was helping me with a lot of it and we had to sort out orders, but at least I got a budget done. I've just listened to a project managment podcast episode so I'm going to do the scope stuff now.

Then I'll at least do 45 mins Chem if not anything else and my FM hw. Percy Jackson is non negotiable. And today unexpectedly turned into a glow up and tidy day 😂 but I think you need those some days to reset so as long as I get a bit of work done it's alright.

How's your day gone?

Aww! Sounds like your day was fun, i hope you continue gym. I am sure you will catch up on ur missed work and i agree some of these days are so essential and unexpected ones are the best!!
My day has been quite boring, i felt like a robot and can’t wait for this week to be over. Thanks for asking
We both have a full day tomorrow so hopefully it will better than today!

Update:
Today has been happy but fairly uneventful. I was given two pieces of homework and an upcoming open book test (but I think I'll do the test without the notes just to test myself and see how I really perform). Also got nominated by my teacher to lead an assembly - but they haven't told me about what

I did a little 30 min home workout whoop whoop! But now I'm very tired. I think I'll do some extra comp work later and relax. Tomorrow I'll use my free lessons to do some more revision. I will also get my maths mock back 😰

Sorry for a rather boring day, hopefully you've all hada better one!

FYI to anyone applying for medicine 2025 - this has probably be common knowledge for a while and I just missed it. But every BMAT Uni apart from Oxford and Lancaster have confirmed they are moving to UCAT. I was checking every week to see if any new popped up and saw a website article on it today 😂 So one less test unless the other two decide to be different

Unfortunately the time has come that my ears are ringing and my head is pounding - cough cough, I'm sick. (Anyone get the reference 👀) Yeah the weekend revision didn't work out, I did do a lot or exercise, work and hanging out with friends so I am exhausted! Despite having what I think is the beginning of a cold, I do need to hold myself accountable and AT LEAST do SOME work today. I have way too many things happening this month, and it is sooo hard to keep track!
