I'd like to get up early and study tomorrow but this week has me exhausted. I aimed to do all 30 algebra questions from 2011-1996 but 2011 was so confusing that I gave up

(By doing I mean copying and trying to understand :L)

I hate how 2011 is the first paper you always open for a topic, and it's always ridiculously hard. :rolleyes: I usually start at 2010 and come back to it. :P

Such an awful paper though, a few of my friends did it last year and I felt so bad for them afterwards, they were so worried they'd fail overall.

The looks I got fron the higher level ones when I was one of the first to walk out after finishing the ordinary paper were gas though. :pac:

Welcome back, and good to hear that you're getting work done!

I find myself spending all my study time doing French and Irish comprehensions, they're the only things that don't make me hate life. I'm actually so ****ed at this stage it's unreal

Yay you're back!! I was wondering if you'd come crawling back to us. :P I did three days of my three hours' study a day chain and then it was Friday so I couldn't, haven't restarted it since. Going to get back into it tomorrow.



And get well soon Siobhán, I've been sick for the past two weeks, it's not good. :cool:

You have to remember that what might come across as a light-hearted comment IRL complete with body language may not translate as easily to the net without a small bit of thought as to how to get the tone across.

That said, from a quick glance back, some (normally relaxed) people a tad hormonal at the moment!

I suppose we'll see more of that over the next few weeks as people get more stressed, but everyone try to take deep breaths and not take it out on one another ... there's been a really nice atmosphere around this forum this year, and it would be a pity to see that falter at the last fence.

Beware

This Leaving Cert is really getting to me. Normally I'm the person that avoid study like the plague, but now if anybody suggests going somewhere, I'm like, "No, no, I must study!" It's my little sister's communion today, but yesterday I was seriously considering missing it to stay at home and study. :P

Wesc.

Haven't been on this in a while, I was just doing so.. much.. work.

Nah I spent the entire day yesterday playing fifa/cod at my friends But yeah next week I'll definitely get my act together and stay focused on my studies!

Funny how I seem to say this to myself every week.:pac:

jameseyf

Just do it

ConTheCat

The leaving cert is now a novelty for me to get out of going to family occasions

Mysteriouschic

I added a few more things to my cao now have 4 on the level 8s and 2 level 7s.
I just realised something all my courses have maths modules in them for the first or second year the only course which hasn't got them is the one I applied to in England, I really hope I get this one, I would really like to avoid doing maths .

Togepi

Today's challenge is to do six hours of study. Oh god.

Nicely done, revising the ENTIRE business course in one day (especially in like an hour or two unless you got up at like 5) is pretty impressive :L I did it the night before the Mocks too...

I've done four hours:
-Did a History document (Congo)
-Did a couple of business questions
-Revised General Vision and Viewpoint (Going to do a question soon)
-Did an accounting question (Ratio)

Going to go back now and do a couple more hours.. Wish me luck

BL1993

Applied for maths in trinners. Feels better than just sitting at home doing nothing next year.

Mysteriouschic

I can't seem to focus today. I did a few business questions and some economics. I decided to give it a miss for the rest of the day and wait until tomorrow when I'll be more focused.

Superbus

I want to go to there.

AlmightyDublin

Eathrin

I kinda hate both teams here. but I'm up for Chelsea today.

Chelsea have the champions league final to enjoy, Liverpools had an awful season, hope that they can scrape a win

Cleaning my room, getting rid of useless notes and books I never use feels good my rooms lookin tidy for once too
feels weird not being in work too much free time I should prob study but I think I'll just take today off for me time

Chuchoter

I hate the CAO. All these choices are crap and there aren't enough courses in places I want to go.

FÚCK YEAH FOR PRODUCTIVITY.

Spent the last 3 hours doing the 2007 Business Paper: Shorts (all 10 :P), ABQ and Questions 2, 3, 5, 6. 19 pages in all. My Teacher's gonna be sooo happy to see all of that to correct after a bank holoiday :pac:

I've been studying since like 11.30, nearly 8 hours :eek:.. No more studying shall be done tonight, sweet brain.

Chuchoter

I know! I got so much work done today. So many notes!

Out of interest, does anyone know what I'd do with sociology. It sounds fantastically interesting but I don't know what I'd do with it :S

I genuinely cannot comprehend how you can stay focussed for 8 hours on a SATURDAY! I applaud you for it, but at the same time just don't how you do it
In the meantime, I have progressed to season 3 on manager mode in fifa :cool:

Coeurdepirate

The talk of study is making me depressed. I did a French comprehension and some biology short questions today.

Now I'm getting ready to go out in Galway and get intoxicated beyond measure.

Manic2

Oh my god. I have yet to start studying.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!?!?!

Still have no motivation.
