Tons of people are the same, everytime I go on facebook it's filled of friends saying they havn't studied! It's definitely getting harder to study, i took yesterday and Friday off because it was so nice out and I'm regretting it today. I had a timetable to stick to and although I got it done I was so lay about it and managed to laze around most of the time. I keep putting it off but I think i'm just going to start waking up early and keep refreshed so I can get the work done. Start again tomorrow and hopefully the weather will ease of until the end of June

On the bright side it'll all be over soon
I didn't get a lot done today, I blame the school I was there from 9 until 5 and I only had one double class and a church practise. I've more extra classes tomorrow so I think i'll start with the serious studying on Thursday if i'm not too wrecked from my graduation the night before! 0 -

Lost tonight won't help! (2.5 hours I think).
We're finished school tomorrow.. so hopefully I will get knuckling down into the work. I can't believe I'm only starting my 'serious study' 2 weeks before the LC... if you told me that at the start of the year I would have been disgusted with myself. And everybody in my year has really high expectations of me, which doesn't help
I won't get anything done on Grad Night, and probably won't be able to tackle much the next day either 0 -
I'm exactly the same! A teacher comes up to me the other day, talking about the LC. "Oh, you'll get over 550 points no problem". And here I am, starting study 2 weeks before the exam**Timbuk2** wrote: »Lost tonight won't help! (2.5 hours I think).

My Dad's a teacher so I get pressure from both school and home:mad:.0 -

YES! Same here. I'm one of the very few who always does his homework in every subject, never backtalks a teacher, and don't feck blue tack on the carpetDancingQueen:) wrote: »Auh no way! My parents expect me to do well because I generally do in school, they don't understand that it is basically a memory test that really depends on what comes up on the day. I'm more worried about getting my course next year, if I do I really won't care about the points or how I did. And yet, some jacka$$ who stopped the class from learning for a year and a half can g off and learn off a load of stuff and do well. I do good in school, just not looking forward to this exam

This just makes so much sense and is basically my life right now :cool: People who copy off me in tests, don't bother doing any work and who have taken the last 3 weeks off to 'study' could just fly right by me points wise and take my course even though they seriously don't want it as much as me and will go just because they can!0 -

Nice guys finish last
I remember we were handing up our Geography project. Now, Geography is our worst class. Ever half-minded trouble maker took it up thinking they;d get an A. Our daily 40 minutes is spent with her shouting at them, getting the Year Head, getting the principal... and now we don't have the course finished
But anyway, I had my project done. I asked her to look over it quickly, to make sure I had everything covered, because I worked my A$$ off for that project. As I was flicking through the pages, she kept looking down at the trouble makers and shouting at them. That was when I realised its the loudest, rudest people who get noticed and control the class 0 -

Fortunately my Geography teacher is the vice principal and is not a woman you would mess with :P I know what you mean though, a lot of my teachers are sick and tired of dealing with the chaos and have branded our classes 'trouble makers' when it really is only a few people. Taking in all of that in I do really like my school and the majority of people in it but it is annoying when it seems like all of the hard work isn't going to pay off in the end.0 -

Completely unfair :P If we actually did steady work in school all year, I'd get great grades. I prefer to take stuff in during class than sit down and study 0 -

Sounds like a plan, it'll probably be brought in soon after we leave. Looking forward to college because the majority of people who are there want to be so less hassle : )0 -
