struggle is real

yes this is an update of my life.

revision has been okay i guess just a little behind time.. according to my daily plans for myself. i will catch up and in hope be well prepared to score what i aim for each of my modules. final lag.. no time to slack.

no time to slack.. ironic. what is the real struggle when studying? well, personally i have couple of conflicts during such crucial time where you have only a few days left to prepare for the exams. one struggle will be being caught between the idea if one should stay up to study or wake up earlier to start studying earlier. another struggle will be, one needs a break some time but for how long per day and how. answers to such questions somehow differ from people to people. for me, they differ from time to time as well. nonetheless, so far i think that waking up slightly earlier than usual is better for me. evening time proved to be too unproductive for real revision. as such, evening time is when i chill and play and update my blog as you can see. balanced lifestyle, healthy mind.

i can do this.

the list

yes this is an update of my life.

this might be a habit or just a necessary measure. in fact ever since i was studying for O levels, i realise i need lists. i need lists to list down things to revise and do pertaining to my revision for a major exam. yes, only for major exams. O levels and A levels initially. now, coming into university, i am doing such lists for final exams as well.

as expected, the past weekend was pretty unproductive for me. haha i kept on being distracted at home and went out a couple of times to relax and chill with good company. nonetheless, it then hit me that the list for this round of finals was not written out yet. hence, i started doing those lists earlier. time to step up on my game, especially when i have five papers to prepare for.. especially i know i am not the "higher end" student and required lots of effort to get the results i am aiming for.. especially  this is university, no more high school or junior college, shit is real.. especially when this course of education is most likely the last time to prove yourself academically to your future employers. as usual, i am ever finding my motivation within me to push on.
