🪄🪦 bringing grades back from the grave (y13 edition): fesselnd’s 24-25 gyg
new blog, who dis?
after staggering off a rollercoaster called y12, i took a few weeks to hibernate before considering starting a new gyg.. for 2025 😟 (time flies)
although my singular AS result in a 4th subject (that i dropped ✌️) came out well, my predicted grades are looking… a bit dead.
predicted grades:
Spoiler
i could just bury them and surrender but for the sake of reaching degree level, I will spar with biology and my Public Enemy #1, chemistry, for a whole year 😇.
with a little magic, inspiration and by channeling the spirit of the scientist in Frankenstein, we can drag maths, biology and chemistry out of the grave to make them undergo a divine transformation (think of the MC of the kdrama and webtoon True Beauty).
final grades (dream):
Spoiler
magic, right?
tools:
•
the forest app: my saviour 🙏
•
my notion board 🤞
•
a calendar.. i need to implement a calendar into my board
•
screen time blocking. someone on here mentioned opal once and i’d recommend the free version for work sessions. screenzen on the mac and app stores is good too. stayfocusd on the chrome web store is very strict and stops me procrastinating, most of the time.
•
a little more discipline
•
my textbooks 😛
•
anki, I love you forever.
•
PhysicsAndMathsTutor.. i need to use this more. my weakness is using past papers less than flashcards and it shows through sometimes..
•
watch this space
about me:
•
y13 (yeah.. time flies)
•
will apply to medicine, sometime in the future
•
gcses: 999988887777
•
likes to read (books, webtoons 😛 sometimes an article or two), study new languages, listen to music (live off rnb and some other genres), writing sometimes
•
learning german, will maybe pick up french again sometime
•
listening to too many artists
•
infp? enfp?
•
if you wanna get into ennea then i’m a 7w6
•
prone to phone addiction 😕
•
think I learned more this year than the rest of my life
•
can’t think of any more, maybe i'll add bits later
anyways
if anyone who stumbles on this post has forest and wants to plant together, hmu. if you have questions, hmu. otherwise, enjoy the rest of your day 🤞

anywayss here's some extra things i forgot to add. let's go~
favourite artists:
sza on top! i've surprisingly got back into mitski recently. i love my 90s rnb, so brandy, aaliyah and erykah badu are repeaters. sade makes appearances on my playlists too.
as results day:
i took an as level a few months ago for german. i'm happy with my result 🙂 i'm gonna wait for the certificate to come out~
song of the day
🎵 townie - mitski

Favourite song by sza?
right now it's tread carefully 🫶 if i had to pick a few more i'd say warm winds, go gina, child's play and maybe forgiveless. wbu?

hi nice to meet you!
hey girlll i'm great today! (still got a few more sessions to do but we move 💔)
how are you? do you have a gyg? i'll drop by~
can we trade rnb recs too? i think you'd like youra (mimi is my fav song from her) if you like szanotion picks me up and pours me tea when chemistry beats me down ❤️*🩹 my board is single-handedly saving me rn. also, it looks pretty so i actually like typing whatever into it 😛
it's so nice to meet others going into y13 too! and YES, please trade rnb recs with me!!
i've never heard of youra b4, but i'm adding her to my playlists rnnn 😍
also, after listening to MIMI by youra an artist that i listen to came to mind. i don't know if i'd put them into rnb, but they're called orion sun 🫶 the tracks 'concrete' and 'mirage' eatttt
please drop me any more tracks as they come to mind! what other artists do you listen to?
yesterday's pastries were delicious 🙏🤤 the most mouth-watering pockets of goodness you could imagine. the bakery's in london- if anyone wants the location lmk.
i made a little way with biology today, but i struggled to maintain my focus. i think i'm having a problem with that. i pray that i finish my biology work before the deadline and i pray i salvage bio and chem.
for maybe 1 more hour i'm going to do some more bio and review a set of flashcards.. and find my charger.
with love,
fesselnd

Ooo I love this, I really need to download forest again, thanks for the reminder 😂 I'm trying out anki this year for my flashcards as well as I've seen lots of people saying it's better than quizlet, and I also ADORE notion, I literally spent ages today downloading it on my laptop and setting up more boards!
!hey emmanuella! congrats on your place at ucl, you acedddd it 💗 let us know how experimental linguistics is going 🫶
thanks, cause it's gonna be one hell of a journey 😢 onwards and upwardsss
and damn am i excited to witness your journey! 4A*s is bombb, you deserved that! gl with oxford (and imperial, and warwick..) 💗
i recommend anki from the bottom of my heart, it's like my little PA 😛 it schedules all your flashcards so you can review them at the end of each forgetting curve. it's the most god-tier studying tool along past papers for me. if you need any help setting it up, youtube and random forums are your godsend. hit me up if you have qs about that~
and if you download forest back, def add me if you want. everyone i know is using flora for some reason..
how are you? do you have a gyg? i'll drop by~
i'm good, actually feeling like i could be productive this year lol
here's my gyg: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7516611
