Day 2/70: burnt out study diaries
I did a mechanics mock and a biology mock todayโฆ
They actually didnโt go too badly (yay!).
The biology one was okay because I had quite a lot of time to spend on it (extra time, whooo) which forced me to dig deep into the dark corners of my brain for all of the stuff I thought I didnโt know. Annoyingly though, all of the topics that came up seem to be the ones I hadnโt revised yet.
Maths was actually so good considering Iโd been staring at past papers that made me want to cry only days before, thinking Iโm going to fail my a levels. Literally, as I was doing it, it felt like Iโd got every single question right until it came to the last two, where, admittedly, I had no idea what was going on.
Overall, it was a long school day full of exams, but it was kind of nice to spend so much time focusing.
My maths exam ran on until 3:30 at which point I realised I was supposed to be going to a driving lesson and I was going to be really late, so the anxiety of that did kind of put a bit of a downer on my day. But then, it turns out my driving instructor left because I was so late so I didnโt have a lesson and for some reason that made me feel a lot better.๏ฟผ
I did about an hour of revision in the evening which was really more of an hour of sitting at my desk getting distracted by various things, I think I did about one physics question (๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ).
In the future, I think itโs going to be important to make sure I remember to write a to-do list the day before because otherwise I feel like Iโm just doing random school stuff with no purpose. I really need to write myself a proper revision schedule because thereโs less than two months till exams and it makes me feel like I havenโt got enough time to properly improve on anything. Like, yes, I might not have the time to go through absolutely everything that Iโm struggling on and get everything perfect but you can still do so much in two months and sometimes the stress and anxiety of exams makes me forget that.
Anyways, Iโm going to try and get a relatively early night and if I manage to get to sleep on time, Iโm gonna do the park run tomorrow which will be exciting (itโs been ages since I last went, since I seem to have not been able to get to sleep before 2 am on the weekend for ages)๏ฟผ
Good night! Have a lovely day :)))
