11:30-12:15 I decided to check out a Tutor2u Economics stream on financial markets for revision.*
12:15-14:00- I had lunch and decided to relax, reading some manwha and booking a train for an applicant day.*

22:30–22:40 Tesco break for a protein shake*
23:00-24:00 Read some Manwha and do a do a quick recap of economics paper 1 with a booklet.*

Overall assessment of the day:*
Fairly productive, however, I would have liked to focus more on the structure comparison between my history essays and students who consistently score between 18 and 20.
I Could Potentially Limit the time used on trading videos and replace it with more time for direct revision.
However I already deleted numerous Social Media’s such as X,IG,Discord,Snap and all my games. so I could limit distractions which helped significantly lower my screen time on wasteful activities. So limiting time on trading videos may lead to high levels of boredom and low levels of motivation so it may not be a smart idea. As I’ve already reduced the levels of entertainment offered to me.

04/04/24 How the day went (apologies if this is quite poorly written; I was celebrating my birthday on the 4th and my friend's birthday on the 5th, so I may currently be facing some side effects of the drinking that occurred
7-8 a.m. preparation for the day*
8–9 a.m. travel to school*
9-12am USA Revision Session*
12:00–12:45pm went to the co-op, got a meal deal, and came back to school.*
12:45–3:30pm: Business Revision Session*
3:30-4:15pm: Walk Home*
4:15–4:30pm: Prepare for the gym.*
4:30-5:00pm: Walk to the gym*
5:00-6:15pm: Gym (Back and Biceps)*
6:15–6:30pm: I walked to Sainsbury’s and got a protein shake.*
6:30 p.m.–6:50 p.m. Walk Home*
6:50-7:15pm Prepared and Getting Ready for a Family Meal
7:15–7:30pm: Drive to the location*
7:30-9pm: Meal and warmup drinks*
9-11pm: Drinking in town*
11:11 p.m.: Went back to the local pub after saying goodbye.*
11:10–12am: Completed my Mom Side of the Family Drinking Initiation (5 shots of Black Sambuca, 5 shots of Tequila, 3 pints of a lager (Peroni), and 3 pints of a cider (thatchers).

Overall Assessment of the Day:
Was somewhat Productive until 7:30pm With History being useful at adding small parts of knowledge which I missed due to being poorly such as Levitt Towns knowing that small gaps in my knowledge do exist I'll recap the whole textbook but place a larger emphasis on post-war changes in the general culture. However, the Business Revision Session was lackadaisical as it only covered 5 simple topics during the session with near to no depth (PED and YED, Supply and Demand Diagrams, Balance Sheets, Critical Path Analysis and budgeting) This may have just been useless to me due to doing economics where you cover PED, YED, XED and AED in significantly more detail compared to business. And Supply and Demand Diagrams are the bread of economics. Apart from this due to me wanting to do accounting and finance and my experience gained during YE I am perfectly Sound with Balance Sheets. And for CPA it's just a small subsection of a topic. and for budgeting they legit spent 1 minute going through what an adverse variance and favourable variance are and how they are different instead of covering the actual topic. Which is also a topic I did not need any revision for. Therefore Suggesting I may have only been productive in relation to academics between 9-12 am.

22:30–22:40 Tesco break for a protein shake*
23:00-24:00 Read some Manwha and do a do a quick recap of economics paper 1 with a booklet.*
Overall assessment of the day:*
Fairly productive, however, I would have liked to focus more on the structure comparison between my history essays and students who consistently score between 18 and 20.
I Could Potentially Limit the time used on trading videos and replace it with more time for direct revision.
However I already deleted numerous Social Media’s such as X,IG,Discord,Snap and all my games. so I could limit distractions which helped significantly lower my screen time on wasteful activities. So limiting time on trading videos may lead to high levels of boredom and low levels of motivation so it may not be a smart idea. As I’ve already reduced the levels of entertainment offered to me.
