I haven't blogged much on here so I hope this goes well.


As an introduction I am a teenage girl who is in a smaller secondary school! In my last mocks my grades ranged from 5's to an 8!! I'm aiming for mostly 7s and 8s in my GCSEs. Which definitely requires more revision to get to.

Horrific procrastination I spent all day actually wasting time on my phone and iPad doing nothing productive. I'm planning on reading my revision guide a bit before I go to bed though instead of my regular book. I'm hoping to do better tomorrow and tidy my room as well as it is getting slightly messy. This half term is not going well revision wise. I want to revise but I don't know why I can't stop procrastinating (i do).

20/02/26 had plans today so was busy most of the day, spent the morning crying but managed to get about 20 minutes of maths revision done so I'm happy with that! Tomorrow I need to properly get down to it and do a lot. I'm hoping it will work out as I have mocks on monday

22/06/26 managed to do 1 hour maths revision and Corbett maths five a day, did Spanish vocab and practice reading paper. Then I procrastinated and began learning chess on Duolingo and did a greek lesson. Better than most days so I'm getting there I'll probably do English literature quotes this evening

23/02/26 had Spanish reading mock which went well. I have done 80 minutes of history cold war before dinner. About to do Elizabeth and Germany for my mock tomorrow

25/02/26 managed to get three hours if English literature revision done yesterday for the exam today. Geography got sacrificed to 20 minutes. So far I have done 1 hour for chemistry. I think English literature went terribly geography and felt okay. Caught up on my biology mock it felt too easy. Need to do my maths mock which is also missed tomorrow.
