That’s honestly all I hear. I feel like no one understands how I feel. I know I should think of why I have to get this done and not why I can’t do this but FUCK I CAN’T DO IT. Not to mention that today when I should have been cramming for chemistry, I had to take my bitch of a sister to her one direction concert, miss my test, only to have her treat me like shit. honestly, fuck this world. let this be a reminder that I am never doing anything for that fucking bitch again. I’ve been thinking of dropping chemistry and just giving myself a year off, but no I think I’m fucking superman. With my premedical goals on hold, I’m pretty much taking this chemistry just because.
But anyways, say I wanted to write my test tomorrow, Its 1AM, my test is at 9:30AM. That 8.5 hours. .75 hours goes to commuting so thats 7.25. I’d probably study for 3 hours, so thats 4.25 hours sleep. then write my test…
Ok, so tomorrow I have no class.
I will get a doctors note for 1000, and study as much of chapter 14 and chapter 15 as I can. and get ready for tomorrows lab
the next day I have
1:00-2:30 training
2:30-5:30 lab #2
So I’ll have to bus, so I’m out of commission from 11:30 to 7.
I’ll try as much as I can but we’ll ultimately see what happens.
I feel like I have been freed ever since I said medicine is not for me.
I remember in grade 12 second semester, my life really changed when it came to my academics. What changed?
I know that the drive to get accepted into a university really kicked in and made me work to my limit.
But after my first biology test I realized something — that I study improperly.
I think what really changed was I changed the way I study and my mindset. I wasnt doing straight up textbook work and glooming about examples I did not understand…
I really took charge of my learning and used animations, other websites, made my own notes on the computer, made those tables for hormones, printed those pictures and labelled them, oh and zerobio! I think what zero bio did for me, I have to do for myself now for second year.
As for problem solving courses such as the calculus that I took, What honestly really helped me was the practice…
Even in uni I did very well in microeconomics, and that was a concept course. I really structured my studying, made to do lists, I would read, make notes, do practice tests and mark myself, then do them again, and again. Repetition does really drill it in your head but what’s better is finding a better way to study.
But on top of all, consistent effort. Daily hard work.
My biggest down fall is having a whole day for free. I have to break this shit down for myself.
But back to studying…
Alrightie, so my day was okay so far, had track+field class in the morning, and just got back and ate. It’s about 1pm now, and I’m gonna nap for an hour just to get some rest and when I wake up, I’ll take a shower!
Today my goal is to finish chapter 5.
I’ll be out of the shower by 2:30, pick up my sister, and go to Starbucks/Second Cup to study for chemistry.
3:00 - 5.1
4:00 - 5.2
5:00 - 5.3
6:00 - rest
7:00 - 5.4
8:00 - 5.5
9:00 - 5.6
10:00 - rest
11:00 - 5.7
12:00 - go to sleep
Tomorrow I have a 9:30 class till 11:30 and then a lab that starts from 2:30 to 5:30. So I’ll do my pre-lab in that 3 hours gap and start chapter 6. Also, that also means that I’m going to have to bus it to school.
