I am FINALLY recovering from my cold, so this week we are getting back on track! Our dreams won't happen by themselves. January has been our intro month, I've figured out my goals and what I want from this year - fulfilling my academic potential and personal development! So now that my mindset is clear, it is time for habits and sleep so that I can be a functioning human.

It's a busy week, I have the open book test which I won't use notes for because I like to make my life harder, I'm helping at a parents evening for the younger years, I have two applications due, two other deadlines, work and a conference. 😭 So productivity is a MUST.

Now for the plan...
School

✅L1 Further Maths

✅L2 Chemistry

✅L3 Biology

✅L4 Free - Comp work

✅Lunch - team photo at start, then med club (ask what they want to know on application process)

✅L5 assembly + application writing

After school

✅3:30-4:30 Chem notes + revision

✅5:15-6:45 FINISH comp design work

⭕️7:30-8:30 Applications

✅9:00-9:30 Biology revision

Ahh ok I am so sure they will accept you!!!
Also i am not sure when sutton trust opens but its an amazing programme, my friend had a bit lower ucat then me and had already been accepted to sutton trust (it has some specific criteria) got an interview for hyms her application got flagged because of sutton trust so was guaranteed an interview. So you should definitely try applying to it!

We're doing well with this so far, it's been a fairly happy and productive day! But THIS is your sign to TIDY your desk, put on a cute and comfy outfit, put some lofi/classical music and light a scented candle. I just did the dreaded hour of chemistry and this 100% made me feel more ✨academic✨. Honestly I'm probably more of a Devi than a Rory Gilmore, but I felt like I was in a Rory Gilmore era (before dropping out of Yale...). Also have snacks middway through revision, you need the energy to keep your brain going.

I'm not sure if it feels so good because I've just been sick for a week or I just woke up on the right side of the bed but I am determined to finish the rest of my tasks! When making notes I struggled on one part (which is about some sort of double titration but my school unit is so all over the place I don't even know what it's about), so I've asked my teacher if she can go over it with me tomorrow.

Also in our assembly today we had a lecture on how we need to work more, but then said there are one or two students who work non-stop and need to pause, where they pointedly looked at me 👀 But I think this GYG has helped me manage my time better, today might be packed but I relaxed last week. Also I can't wait for half term, I really want a shopping spree even though I have nothing to buy 😂

Anyhoo that's the update since things were going well. Will post tomorrow's list later, now I have to do some more work.

Have a nice evening all ❤️

NO, IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU. Like I know what you mean with the academic part, because honest if you have a tidy work space you also have a tidy mind I think, with less things to get distracted with. And a scented candle with like piano jazz cafe music works best for me with a steaming cup if coffee. And I totaly agree with you on the ill part because (even though Im still Ill) it really does make you feel better to get up and be productive. GO GIRL XX

Thank you!!!!! Ikr it's so nice with the candle, it's our at home version of a cafe where you don't end up spending all your money on cakes and coffee 😂 I'm hoping you feel better soon xx

omg setting the whole mood for revision with lofi and ambient lighting is my FAVOURITEE, like it always makes me feel so productive and motivated to revise 🤍 i feel like i'm the opposite with being sick though, like i think being ill just gives me an excuse to procrastinate even more... BUT GO YOU FOR REVISING WHILST BEING SICK ASW 💪💪
i'm glad things are going well for you overall, good luck with the rest of your work today <3

Tuesday 30th January
Ok so Monday was better than I thought it'd be - going to do bio now to finish my tasks for the day! For Tuesday I have a double free in the middle of my lessons so I have to stay all day 😭 Anyway let's keep up momentum for tasks today! Once I get applications done this week I should be able to revise more - like I need to revise FM, idk when I did that last. Today hopefully my chem teacher will be able to go over something with me 🤞

School

✅L1 Biology

✅L2 Biology

✅Break - have a break

⏩L3 - finish application + 10 mins prep for webinar

⏩L4 - chem revision (if haven't been able to go over with miss, start past paper questions and anki practise)

Lunch - comp work (write up page 3)

L5 - Further Maths Pure CANCELLED❌

⬆️Moving ✅applications and webinar prep to lunch

⬆️Moving chem revision to l5

After school

3:30 webinar - CANCELLED - why are all my webinars being cancelled 😭😭😭

5:30-6:15 maths notes

✅6:45-7:30 Comp work

8:00-9:30 applications

Ughhhh my tasks are not going in the order I’d like. It’s taken me almost two hours finishing comp work with my teacher so my chem revision and applications will be moved to lunch and l5. So I’ll still get it done but it will be more rushed 😭

Also my teacher cancelled FM l5 today and tomorrow! I’m honestly worried about how many lessons are getting cancelled, 5 fm lessons cancelled this half term, there’s only 6 weeks of lessons until Easter half term - how will I finish the course?!? I need to start revising fm a lot because it will be rushed by the end.

Otherwise though it’s a good day, I woke up early and did some yoga and comp work (so I actually had time to relax, have a coffee and be productive!) Really leaning into this romanticising school vibe.

Anyhoo see you later, now I have to work
