SWOT VAC IV

like i say, i am a very visual person. so everytime before my exams, i will make myself a study schedule using a DIY calender planner. of course, i wasn't quite up to date most of the time but who does anyway. people very often tend to make unrealistic goals because it makes us feel better when we're unable to meet them. the beauty of psychology huh? i really can't remember when was the last time i managed to go through all my learning materials before exam. donkey years ago, maybe first year first sem.

okay, my point is, this semester, i did make myself a study schedule. BUT time is so short i decided to ditch the calender and make do with

POST IT

i am the kind of person who forget what day it is all the time.

especially when i dun have to go to uni

so in order to constantly remind myself of the time

how many days are left before the big day

how slow my progress is

how screwed i am

i have to have this tiny post it to keep my orientated

festive hat for Monday???

don't ask me why.

but one thing for sure, i certainly don't think i am that keen to have my exam.

and i also have this little to know list to remind me of what to pay attention to

i used to hate working through past year because to me it's like cheating. and i absolutely despise spotting exam questions because i dun believe in taking short cut, and i definitely am not a risk taker.

BUT

over time i realized that they do repeat the exam questions and it's a disavantage for me if everyone else's know exactly what the answer is but i dun because i too stubbornly hold on to my principle, so i give in.

BUT

i do make sure that i read through all my material (okay, as much as possible) and only use past year as a reference rather than a solution. it went well last time :D

okay, enough of the study shit and let's have some food shall we?

what's for lunch today?
