Damn, I'm surprised how fast time is flying by... Honestly, today was alright. Managed to do a lot.
Today I:
Completed Economics (lesson 2 (Part 1-3) and lesson 5 (Part 1-2))
Completed business studies assignment
Submitted Computer project
Did some accounts sums
Completed English assignment
Tomorrow's to do list:
Complete Arabic assignment
Complete Economics (lesson 5 (Part 3) and 3 (Part 1-3))
Learn a few accounts theories
Assignment to complete:
Arabic
Computer
I also got my test results today, I'm pretty satisfied with most of them cause i managed to get above 80 in everything... So... Yeah.
Today wasn't bad but not too good either :")
Honestly I'm overthinking quite a lot because of the finals so much that i got a freaking headache.... Anxiety has been following me around all week, I don't even know how I'm gonna manage...
Today I:
Studied Accounts (2hr 15mins)
Studied Business studies (1hr)
Honestly nothing much but gosh, my major problem is studies plus teacher pressure and subtract your hobbies/interest multiply zero time and divide your health. Isn't the equation really good? T-T
I can do it... atleast i hope i can. Tomorrow i have school till 3, I'll be at home by 4: 30 and tomorrow is fully accounts in the evening so I'll be studying either economics or business studies in the morning... let's see.
✉️ your academic “motto”?
Hey dear Anon! Thanks for the ask. :D
✉️ your academic “motto”?
I don't really have one, honestly. I generally like to watch study motivations on YouTube and Pinterest and different mottos work for me depending on my mood and i don't really repeat the same motto everytime 😅
Though, currently I've been repeating this phrase "I know more than I think I do" It really helps with my anxiety so yeah.
Today was exhausting but atleast we get a 4 day break till Tuesday because of Eid-ul-adha and gosh am i dreading the coming Wednesday, we have so much due then.
I didn't do much today, just completed my business studies assignment. Now, I'm gonna make a list of my assignments and tests due on Wednesday...
Assignments:
Economics (another one, yes T-T)
Computer (the hardest one)
Arabic (kinda easy)
English seminar
Tests:
Economics 2 lessons
English 1 lesson
Homework:
Accounts
Islamic studies (memorizing 1 Ayn of Dhukhan)
Right and I have to do my own studying... looks like it's gonna be toooo productive and my plans of reading a novel just went out the window T-T
failure hurts
don’t panic or stress
keep it under control
you can do it
i know you can
question your wrongs
learn from your mistakes
change your plan
fix your regime
learn from others around you
start with a fresh mind
renew yourself
failure does not define you
Today was surprisingly not that tiring though I am pretty sleepy... And this week is just too packed, actually the whole month is packed. But anyways, today i just did accounts and mentally made a study plan for the week cause when I write it down i never really end up completing it :")
Today I:
Completed 1 full lesson in accounts
Topics covered:
Goodwill
Calculation of goodwill
Average profit method (Simple and Weighted)
Super profit method (Capitalisation and Annuity)
Capitalisation method
And I'm done for the day T-T
I made a similar post last year for junior year so if anyone wants to check that out, click here!
I missed out on a lot of fun because of studying
I was too serious, I just realised that now
Studied the whole year and did well, only to burn out during finals so take a break. The world does not burn because you left one question
Most of my conversations revolved around college which by the way will irritate people. Talk about actual things, be light hearted.
Spent a lot of time on the phone in the morning
Slept late. Do not follow this. Seriously.
Didn't take time out for myself
Got too addicted to the concept of learning from AI (I mean during learning and not assignments)
Loved the concept of productivity, ended up back firing.
My anxiety sky rocketed because of pressure
People will say sh*t, you don't have to listen to them
And sometimes when people say sh*t. Listen to them
I thought the same study methods I used for my junior year could be applied to senior year but no, I took too much time, trying to force myself to follow those methods and that heightened my frustration because they didn't work (so if something doesn't work even after a month? Your sign to revaluate)
Just because a method of studying worked for you in the past, doesn't mean it will work all the time so don't continue it.
Thought my whole happiness would come with that one freaking grade on my progress grade but newsflash? it didn't
Was forced into things I didn't like, competitions and extra curriculars mainly. Worst part? I won all the ones I participated in but it just felt worthless.
I empathized with others but I couldn't empathize with myself
Stopped giving a shit about certain things that actually mattered
I spent my whole senior year comforting others who had problems but never shared mine. And the result? Burnout plus loneliness.
Panicked during exams and ended up questioning myself too much.
My mental health deteriorated but I managed.
(Again, it is for your referencing obviously. I will look at this when I'm going to college.)
Thanks for the tag! :D
My gender is a good day for the month of the year of the day

Type "my gender is" on your phone and let your phone finish the sentence, then tag your moots to keep the chain going, I'll go first.
My gender is a little bit more intense than I thought I could have done
