    Jealousy.

    I got up at 6.45 and went to school. After supervised midterm study I went to the library.
    This can't go on, I'm not cut out for this sort of dedication!

    Know Keats, Longley and Bishop back to front after today, and they're the only poets I plan on studying (well for the mocks anyway).

    Today is everything to do with Irish and French, oral, etc...:cool:

    So far I'm on trackm which is a surprise.:D

    Did nothing today; even went so far as messily arranging a few books and "freshly" made out notes on my desk to avoid a guilt trip from the parents. I'm a bastard.

    I've done no study so far. Was in school the past two days finishing my DCG project and was too tired when I got home to do anything else. Going out at night doesn't help your plans to study the next day too.

    I've been in school during the day but I've been really inefficient. I've only got a Walcott essay done so far.

    Fair play to all those studying over the midterm.
    Personally I haven't opened a book since the mocks finished.

    I find I need this opportunity to have a kind of 'complete break' from school work to keep my sanity.

    Also the alcohol helps too.... hmm :rolleyes:

    Library is my new best friend - just can't study at home.

    Can't study at home either.
    School until 12.30, Library until 4.15 and then a quick dash to the bus for 4.30.

    Although, this has only gone according to plan twice this week. Distractions like Topshop have been hard to avoid.
    Who locates a library in the middle of a city? Foolish planning right there.

    What is this thing with people going to school over mid term? You all make me sick. With inadequacy.

    I started out with the best of intentions, I mean, I brought books home! Good start, right? :p
    My bag has been left untouched. I didn't factor in that my birthday was last Sunday. That in itself is an excuse not to study!
    The mocks drained me, I'm taking this week as a break, and will definitely do work once I'm back! :D




    I said this after Christmas too.... But still, this time, I will! ;)

    Yeah, that's the plan :D

    I actually feel really bad for anyone who has their mocks after the midterm. It would definitely ruin the midterm somewhat :(

    Oh sorry, that wasn't supposed to come across like that. I do genuinely feel sorry for ye :o At least you can practically get all the questions and stuff from other people now, if that's what you want to do like, cos loads of people are finished already! :D

    That would put you in a false sense of security though.:D I'm tempted to look at what poets came up in English as I've chosen to bank on three, Keats, Longley and Bishop.:cool:


    So far I've studied Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and a bit yesterday, having today off (going up to Drogheda for a Shels match) and back to the books tomorrow with a bit of Business study.:cool:

    Put in a few hours the last few days. Just had a look at some goegraphy sample answers on e-xamit. They're atrocious. They're not really the answers examiners are looking for are they?
