The dreaded date of my Spanish talk has finally come haha
Today I took a bit of a break and didn’t do any work after school, since there was a very busy week, I’m giving myself a bit of a break
I haven’t really updated much recently so I’ll try to condense everything here :

I’d say the assignment went quite well - I just wish I had more time to prepare as I felt like I kept repeating the same points. My assignment was on population - development between an LEDC and an MEDC, and I just kept waffling about healthcare and such😂 Overall, I think it went quite well and should boost up my marks for the exam 🌏✨

Was stressing so much over this and couldn’t get to memorise it. Yesterday I was panicking so much because the more I practiced the more I forgot what to say and I was just spiralling 😂
I managed to keep my nerves under control during the assessment, and the presentation part went pretty smoothly along with my 1st convo with some minor hesitation and mistakes. I fumbled a bit on the second convo - I forgot so many words and was very hesitant. For the surprise question, I was asked if I like museums - and I said they were very interesting, and that I love them ? literally alI could come up with on the spot 😂 in all honesty, it could’ve gone worse - so I think it’s okay. Hoping that the first part saved me 🤞and that my hesitation hasn’t costed me too many marks. I think I’ll get my results back soon for this so I might just reply to this post later on

Oh god throwbacks to gcse Spanish here, I have so many funny stories haha, in one of my speaking practices, my teacher (who was from Argentina so she had a THICK accent so imagine this in a thick latino accent) told me to "stop searching around the room for the answers because they're not there" because I have this thing where when I'm thinking I tend to stare at a wall behind the person I'm talking to or the corner of the ceiling haha! I'm sure you've done really well

waffling is geography is so real, i literally got a 7 in my mocks without revising and just pure waffling 🤞🤞
speaking assessments are HORROR, like you prepare so much in advance but when you get to the acc talking everything just leaves your brain 😭😭
but i'm sure you did amazing and got a great mark, good luck 🤍🤍

literally 😂 waffling gets me through most subjects ahah
thank you ! 🤍

Hi everyone unfortunately no study update today as I have been extremely unproductive
I made a retrospective timetable inspired by @milktee for maths bc I’ve seriously been slacking off. I’ve avoided maths revision all year so I really need to get going with it if I want to turn that C into an A 🤭

I’m at peak procrastination rn and would appreciate if anyone put some sense into me (in other words, toxic study motivation 😂) because my exams aren’t going to pass themselves! I am hoping to fill out this table with mostly greens by the time my exam comes 😊

Thank you guys for the motivation! I am slowly becoming more productive
I’m so scared for exams - 31 days left !!
My main priority is maths, since it is my weakest subject. I’ve been trying to revise it for at least 1hr a day for the past week - but who am I kidding, it takes me at least half an hour to understand what is going on 😂
I’ve managed to fill in some of my retrospective maths timetable though, which is incredibly helpful for seeing what I need to review!
For now I’m going to do some geography homework and maybe some bio revision 🤍

Ahhh good luck!!

It’s been a while haha 🙃 I’ve not been active as I went abroad to see my family for Easter, but I’m ready to get back on the academic grind
Tasks for today:
Maths - eqations and inequations, circle geometry, indices (and scatter graphs if I have time)
Geography - limestone, rivers (and climate change possibly)
Bio - if I have time I will try to get some bio hw done, but I doubt I will get round to it.
Also as a side note, I wanted to mention my Spanish speaking results as I said I would in a previous post I thought I would have to redo my exam because I forgot so much of my entire talk but turns out I got full marks?! I was so shocked when my teacher told me ahah but I was genuinely so happy !
