whoops im bit late tdy…
Was thinking to do bio originally but since I’ve been spending too much time on it already (but its still not done), so I’m gonna start Eng lit today instead (I never want to start studying it).. :facepalm:

After exams: OFC im gonna take like a chill week off first! Munch…munch..and munch. Then I might start playing piano again since I’ll have time, and maybe travel around? maybe…

I'm going to be doing some biology topic questions, i'll try to get through biological molecules and mass transport. I'm genuinely looking forward to the summer holidays after exams, I feel like once I finish mocks, the rest of the school year will just pass me by lolll

oooh do you have a built-in pool or an inflatable?

Neither. It's one of those that you construct. Not rich enough for a built in pool. :lol:

is this further maths I remember doing this for gcse too!

A-Level Further Maths - doubt you’d do matrix transformations for GCSE (normal transformations sure) unless you’re talking about L2 (gcse equivalent) further maths, in which case, the very very basics of matrices are covered.

Right at the beginning of Further Maths which is super exciting :biggrin:

Question to anyone - tips on how to get energy to do work? Like I know we all say push through it but I can’t if I’m physically falling asleep 😭 Apart from sleeping well and eating well how do you keep your energy up!?

Plan is to hopefully do about an hour of chem revision for prac exam. Make bio flaschards. Practice one further pure topic, probably something like hyperbolics

one thing that always wakes me up is drinking water, like after 5 minutes you should feel the effect and be even just a bit more alert

Honestly not good but not bad, but it’s exam season so what did I expect haha. Haven’t been as active on gyg recently but just kept my head down and tried to revise (chiming in when I can!). Issue with a nap is that I’ll just stay in bed 😭 it’s too comfy!

I find it motivating to have a 'study with me' video on in the background. They have breaks built in and I find it more motivating to study when it looks like there's someone else studying as well :o:

Try and book in a whole day to get some proper rest and sleep if you can - it feels counterproductive to slow down but actually helps you in the long run! If not, for me it's motivation by getting a treat at the end of a session!
