Half time 2023

Now it's the halfway point of the year.

Review

As I predicted based off previous observations, my performance in Term 2 did fall off a bit compared to Term 1. I've started to feel the full force of VCE and it does seem like the workload required has increased quite a bit.

The thing about some subjects of VCE, is that the top-end is so tight that even if you get results like losing 1 mark, it could have some implication of falling down the ranks quite severely. Obviously, its a good score and anyone should be content with it, but if you are aiming for the top, then it does matter a lot more than other people might think.

But rather annoyingly, I feel like the subjects that I'm good at (maths, science) all have this tight at the top nature, but the subjects I'm less proficient at (Eng Lang, Chinese) are a lot more skill-based rather than luck-based. But then again, it's probably like that for everyone and that gives all the subjects their competitive natures.

Talk the talk, walk the walk

Every holidays, I think I always have in my mind some magical plan to do stuff. Something along the lines of, going to do X of this and Y of that everyday. This way I can feel productive, get ahead and be happier.

But putting it into action never works, I just fall back to the sleep until midday, watch YouTube for 20 hours mentality. At the end of the holidays, I 100% am going to look back and think, I could have done so much more, but I did not. But then again, this is also my choice, so I can't lament it.

Plans for next week

  1. Come up with somethings to do
  2. Try not to fall into the trap of addiction
  3. Sleepppppp

DM me 'equanimity' if you see this.
