Procrastinate With Me

Update on the chickens: my neighbor sold them (yay) to another neighbor (aww). They’re still very noisy and they also bought a rooster. Just my luck.

I read a lot of books but I have never read some of the classics a lot of people studied in school such as great expectations. This year that all changes. I will also try to finish books because that is a serious problem for me.

Today I had planned to go to a local cafe and get some work done but there is a storm going on outside so that plan got Vetoed. I am going to finish a chemistry sheet and question set and then watch Netflix and read all day.

STRESS. I have had another three tests this week and I was not prepared for any of them. I’ve made around 250 flash cards this week so far which is crazy. I am so ready for next week.

It has been a rollercoaster week. I was sent home from 6th form on Monday because I was not feeling well and when I got back on Wednesday I was surprised with two tests and a stack of homework. Lucky me. Consequently I have cancelled all weekend plans and made some of my friends mad. Whoops. I am in for a fun weekend, hope yours is more relaxing then mine.

I just want today to end. I got to 6th form so early today and all I have done is work. I thought I was done for the day but I forgot I had more questions and an essay plan to do by tomorrow so I’m in for a long night. Wish me luck.

Have a productive week.

Stay productive

13-08-18 I spent most of today in the library doing work. I corrected my end of year exams and I made so many silly mistakes that are so aggravating to look at because I know they were avoidable. I am very susceptible to exam stress and I really feel the pressure. I am learning to slow down and take my time to avoid such mistakes.

10-08-18 I have actually done some work. I only have one thing checked off my to do list but I’m working on it. There are 29 thing on my list, some are larger tasks then others but it looks very daunting at the moment. For biology we have been asked to research taxis and kinesis which is interesting so far. Unfortunately I am currently sick again but I went out for dinner with friends twice this week and I’ve been to the amusements and have just basically been having fun and relaxing (my bank account is not thanking me though). I am going to devote next week to just working and hopefully I will tackle most my list before I am back at Ambleside.

27-07-18 This last week has been great. I finished year 12 last Friday and I have so much work to do over the holidays. I went to pride on Saturday which was absolutely amazing. Everyone was so happy and it was just such a fun day and I’m glad I got to be a part of it. The rest of the week I spent doing work or just watching Netflix. I had to stay inside for most of the week because it was so sunny but as I’m writing this I am listening to thunder and rain and watching the lightning bolts striking houses in the distance. I’m going to Blackpool for the weekend with my family which should be entertaining to say the least.

14/07/18 I have been in the Lake District for the last week on a biology field trip. I go to the lakes at least once a year and the beauty of it never gets ceases to amaze me. We stayed at the YHA, right on the banks of lake Windermere and the view from my room was beautiful (pictures to come?). We didn’t get much free time because we had so much work to do but I still enjoyed it and I started to read ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ by Margaret Atwood. Although I’m not the biggest fan of this style of writing, the story is so captivating that I just can’t seem to put it down. I am home now and just relaxing with my dogs. I am going to a little festival tomorrow so it will be a busy day.

01-07-18 I have had an amazing weekend lying around doing nothing. It has been hot and sunny so I spent most of my time sun bathing, reading and playing with the dogs. I don’t feel like going back to 6th form tomorrow but it will nice to have some work to do. I’m on the biology field trip in a couple of weeks so I have to prepare for that which gives me something to look forward to.

23-06-18 I am done. No more exams, for a few months at least. Yesterday I had bio in the morning and chemistry in the afternoon with an hour break in between. It was not fun. I hope all my hard work has paid off.

01-06-08 The past few days I have been working like crazy, trying not to procrastinate and focus purely on work. It is not working. I’m going to the Harry Potter Studio Tour tomorrow meaning I will barley work over the weekend so today I am going to have to get some serious work done. These are some psychology notes I was supposed to be condensing yesterday but I wound up expanding on a lot of points instead. Today I plan on focusing on biology because I haven’t done any this week as I lost my text book. I have it now though so I’m going to try and make the most of it.
