I've been plagued with weird dreams and nightmares lately. It's probably not a good sign. Haven't blogged for a long time, mostly because i no longer have all the time in the world to blog anymore. Nowadays my life is routine; school, home, homework, study, 1-2 hours of relaxation, sleep. Even during the weekends; just scrape school out of that routine. It's been more than a week since Common Tests have been over, but we've only gotten back GP and Economics as of now. I won't even talk about GP, but i will put my head on the chopping block if i don't manage to attain at least a D by Prelim 1. Economics is good (: Geography has not even been handed back, but let's just say i don't really appreciate the terribly depreciating comments. It's true that reality is reality, but such comments don't really work well on me. It just serves to demoralise me further. Only gotten back Mdm Shamala's paper for Literature. Not very satisfactory, and Mdm Cho's paper probably isn't going to be that excellent either. Though it was somewhat expected that i will screw up Literature this time round (Refer to previous post)Either way, i'm trying to put in all of my efforts into studying, but i guess today was testimony to what will happen if you don't know how to pace yourself. I completed a Poetry Comparison essay under timed conditions and an Economics essay, also under timed conditions. Initially wanted to do an SSQ and SQ after dinner, but eventually fell asleep and only woke up an hour later. Burn out at this time of the year? Definitely not a good sign. So i decided to surrender to the inevitable and read Newsweek instead; as though i'm trying to convince myself that i really am doing something productive. Gonna do a GP essay tommorrow. I can't ignore the guilt in the pit of my stomach; that i've been touching EVERYTHING except GP Paper 1. I'm scared. Ok, correct that. I'm TERRIFIED of Paper 1 now. Or maybe i should embark on a strict 'no more than 2 subjects per day' revision schedule to prevent a repeat of today's episode. Sorry for the senseless ramblings. I needed to get that off my chest very badly.
