🩰: core workout, and splits stretches

📚: attended physics and social sciences lectures, completed my lab safety requirements (chemical hazards and biohazards), attended this year's official opening of the science programme i'm in

first day in actual uni lectures!

September 6, 2023 • Wednesday

Today was a really productive day in my opinion! I successfully completed all of my morning routine, and also got in a lot of studying done!

@studaxy and I started Duolingo as well!! I had started learning French way back in 2020 and I was able to read French way before choosing it as a language in school. I got back my language learning bug soooo wish me luck in that :3

Things I did today:

Thirty minutes of Duolingo

An hour of research for my English assignment. The topic of the assignment is "Performing Arts and the Freedom of Expression".

Two hours of physics — got some Module 3 reading done. Rotational motion is a vast concept but I'm pushing through somehow.

specifically aimed at 11th and 12th grade kids who took science and are having online school now

+maggi at 3 am

+cold tea while studying

+crying bc nothing is done

+crying bc you've been working for 6 hours straight and school keeps sending more work

+crying bc you don’t know anything that is in syllabus for the exam the next day

+crying bc exam went bad

+crying in general

+listening to 2000s hindi songs bc new songs are all just remixes with bad raps

+class at 7:30 am, but sleeping at 5 am

+school making you wear uniform for online calls so wearing only the shirt and tie and id card

+school being more unorganized than you and it sending work at random times of the day

+not completing school notebooks bc we are not going back anyways

+then the teachers asking for scans so last minute completion, but whats new

+watching 3 idiots hits different

+knowing its written by chetan bhagat but ignoring that bc the movie was iconic

+"sharma ji ke bacche" (phrase used to compare you to someone else’s child who has done better than you:>)

+not knowing what is happening in coaching classes, asking friends only for them to text you at the exact same time asking the same question

+no social life bc you need to study for minimum 16 hours a day

+having to study for 16 hours a day on the day before exams bc you didn’t study the rest of the year

+failing

+rd sharma and hcv :(

+buying the supplementary books but never using them

+online notes on random websites

+online practicals.

+searching for one question and finding solutions for entire textbook

+for all subjects

+for both years

+physics walla life saver

+textbooks not having enough information so ending up in the wikipedia wormhole

+crying about the lack of STEM representation on social media then realising they probably have no time or are simply tasteless

+"engineering"

+your cousin having done better than you in science in 12th in general

+sleeping too much or too little

+sleeping with camera off bc attendence

+taking science only bc "more options"

+now suffering bc you do have a lot of options but your marks say no❤ to all of them

+being done with science all together

+the subject you had a choice to choose being completely ignored now

+reading the stories in the english textbooks once and scoring the personal highest in english

+the education board being just about as chaotic as you

+learning some of log table values, periodic table and constants before every exam and forgetting as soon as exam gets over

+having an exam every month and still being surprised at it

+"WHY did i take science"

+"bas ab 12th nikalna hain uske baad jo karna hain wo karo" (”just graduate from high school, then you can do whatever you want”)

+more crying

+boards vs entrance exams vs the will to live

You probably do but the app forest is honestly great! If you don't know it's a 'pomodoro', focusing app, you set the timer for 10-120 minutes and in that time you grow a tree - if you come off the app your tree dies.

Once the tree is grown it's added to your collection of trees in your forest! This way you're motivated by the fact you want to see your trees and forest grow, there are more features but that isn't something I'll be delving into. It does cost a little more than £1/$1 but I think is worth it.
