my current to-do list:

•

drama coursework

•

french homework

•

maths homework

•

science homework

•

french flashcards

I can find it really hard to focus and get on with a task. I love to procrasinate 🤭 especially with snacks. My typical productive time is in the evening of a Sunday when I have literally no other options to do my work (so right now!)

I would love to find an accountability buddy, especially considering the importance of this academic year.

PAST: Eventually, I managed to complete all of these, but it did include some late-night homework sessions.

PRESENT: I spent an hour doing some flashcards this evening, which felt good. I also started making a revision planner/schedule for my upcoming mocks.

FUTURE: I wonder how half term break will go next week, and how productive I will be.

Countdown until GCSEs start: 90 days until actual exams, that's a tad scary.

I've learnt in the last few days that challenges are what make you more determined. I struggled finding the ability to actually do my schoolwork and revision when I wanted to, but for now, confused-b is ready to get a move on. So if anyone is reading this, know that it won't be hard the whole time, and if it gets too much, find your support network (friends, family, tutor, chaplain, etc.)
