| | STUDY, STUDIER, STUDIEST
Hate to mention the obvious, but mid-years are looming and it's time to get down to some serious studying. Well, believe it or not, I've actually started revising. Yes, you read that right, the same person who waited two days before last year's finals to start has actually made a friggin study plan and is following it. Okay, to be honest, I doubt a baboon would have much trouble following the plan becuz the only subject I've factored in is math.. but you have to count the fact that my power of concentration isn't much better than a three-year-old at a talk about, say, cordblood and stemcell research. A talk I attended a while back, I might add, although I spent the majority of the time playing Bingo on the evaluation form. Basically I get distracted easi.. hey I wonder what's on Disney Channel?
This leaves me with only one time in the day to study: the wee hours of the morning when everyone else is dead to the world (and based on the results from tests of what I 'studied', perhaps I was too). Before that? I get distracted by the TV, the sisters playing Bridge, the folks discussing renovation plans, even the ant crawling across the kitchen table; anything to keep me from studying, really. I haven't gone to bed before two the past two weeks, my latest being 4.30, which sucks becuz, being required to be in school by 7.20, I'm normally left in only two states: half-dead or half-alive. Kinda the same thing, depending on whether you're more a glass half-empty/half-full kind of person. Point is, I'm left completely knackered.
This is quite a problem, as you shall see. My dad's proud to see that I'm studying so hard, but afraid I'll experience a burn-out. All I can say is, how can anyone experience a burnout if they haven't even gone near the fire? That I stay up so late might seem that I'm studying hard, but the fact that I never start before eleven, sometimes even past one, is conveniently overlooked. So I'm thinking the chances of me experiencing a burn-out is less than certain people taking responsibility for the escape of a certain terrorist two months ago, instead of just feeding the public bull, excuses I mean. No the problem I'm facing is far greater, far more serious and with far graver consequences: if this carries on, imagine the eyebags!! |
