So much to do! Still haven't found a suitable red pen for my notes either.

EDIT: I found my old favourite red pen! Not many people understand how happy a good, lovely coloured pen makes me feel.

Been waiting for 20 minutes for the kitchen to be emptied. My Pops (grandad) is down doing some sort of work with the lights. I've no idea what's going on, but I keep getting dizzy spells so I've to take it easy a bit and drink more water today.

Plan of action for today:
Do my homework (English essay, leamhthuiscint, integration, biology)
German project
Stoichiometry
Plant reproduction done so far - transfer to flash cards (only notes transferred, not extra stuff from the last class)

jessiblah

So much left to do! I just keep talking in Irish to myself to practice my oral. I need to stop this and do some actual work.

I've still my leamhthuiscint, English essay and maths homework!

jessiblah

I've gotten homework in almost every subject tonight, so I doubt I'll get much done. This is what I want for this week:

English: Plath, Mahon

Irish: Dis, sraith phictuirs 8 - 14, Geibheann, Aimsir Chaite

Maths: 1 chapter from paper 1

German: roleplays, project, Ch 1-6 vocab

Biology: finish plant reproduction

Business: 50% of unit 6 - 10% done

Chemistry: Ch 1-5, Titrations, transfer stoichiometry to flash cards

I just looked at the clock and it's hit 1am. The joys of honours maths! I'm done for the night. I'll just go in and be killed tomorrow for not having it finished again (yayyy). I have other classes homework due as well so I'll need a note.

I decided yesterday that on Saturday and Sunday I'm doing all of Calculus, and possibly some Integration if I can fit it in. I need a bit more practice to just engrave it into my head.

I'm doing Mahon on Friday night, and Plath on Saturday night.

I can't find my notes for chapters 1-6 in German at the moment. I last had them at the mocks a month ago, so I don't know what to do if I don't find them (to rewrite or reschedule them and do other chapters now).

I did roleplay 1 today, but very iffy-ly. Now I need to learn the first three tomorrow!

I delightedly rewrote my notes on the structure of flowering plants. I found my 5th year notes folder so I'm writing them notes all out onto my flash cards. I literally was delighted, as it meant I didn't need to go through the chapters looking for the important bits again. It's saved me hours!

I've just got to learn half of the structure of flowering plants now, and rewrite photosynthesis. Then I'll learn photosynthesis and my biology for the week will be done (except if my teacher isn't out again tomorrow, I'll have extra notes to write-up on plant reproduction).

I did half my organising for Chemistry today. I had my flash cards all over the place, so tomorrow I'm going through each chapter to look and see if any are missing.

I realised i've until the 15th to do Unit 6 in Business, so I'm doing grand at the moment!

P.S. Still haven't started my Irish for this week - wehhh!

This week has been a failure due to the homework overload. Some personal stuff has been distracting too. Monday is a fresh start for all though!

English: Plath, Mahon
Plath not started, Mahon is half to two thirds done

Irish: Dis, sraith phictuirs 8 - 14, Geibheann, Aimsir Chaite
None done, but I'm doing the sraith phictuirs tomorrow. I'll try do up some of my own notes on Geibheann too, and I want to go over the briathar neamhrialta in the aimsir caite.

Maths: 1 chapter from paper 1
I did half of the first chapter of Calculus today. Oh calculus, how I hate thee! I shall finish thee tomorrow though.

German: roleplays, project, Ch 1-6 vocab
Did a little bit of practice on the roleplays. Nothing on the rest though. I'm doing roleplay 2 tomorrow, and I will know it perfectly!

Biology: finish plant reproduction, transfer to flash cards
We've only finished this chapter now. Test next Friday on it, so I'll be definitely done studying it by then! Everything is transfered that needs to be though.

Business: unit 6
Business is probably about 12-15% done. I'm gonna do more tomorrow (because seemingly in my head we'll have 100 hours in the day and I'll fit over half of a weeks work in)

Chemistry: Ch 1-5, Titrations, transfer stoichiometry to flash cards
I had the first five chapters almost done notes-wise, but I ran out of flash cards so I put it aside. I've a few little bits to write notes up on in those chapters. I've to write out some examples in stoichiometry too. But I will be doing one of the titration's notes tomorrow too (hopefully).
