You don't know how excited I get when I see a new updateGood to see that you are adjusting and figuring out your way
.
HAHAHA REALLY? I am flattered, straight up blushing. I have been continuing this journal so that at the end of Year 12, I'll be able to see a collection of how I've grown as a person and I kinda wanted to look at my old posts but I can't because ohhh the cringe. Irl, I am one of those really crazy and weird kids so when I read my journal, I am just like why is this so boring like who would actually want to read this. So those words literally mean everything to me
And yes, I am still adjusting though. Some subjects are just so intense (I'm looking at you jap)
It's great to see how quickly you've adjusted to the Year 12 life. Honestly, I'm always so motivated by your journal and your words.
Absolutely understand where you are going here. My Chem teacher last year was a nice person overall, but I found it hard to adjust to their overall style (your situation was literally me last year). You might get one of the world's best teachers, but sometimes life just doesn't work out. One thing it does do is that it encourages you to fend for yourself and be an independent learner however it can get super hard when the teacher has 'biases'. Might be good to just talk it out with them if it does escalate (you guys want to be working together. Just be honest with each other and it should work out). ~*Sending motivation for Chem*~
That is...every single word is filled with wisdom. I will keep hanging on and try to do better in chem. I think my chem teacher does like me but she just has a different way of showing it (I'll update about it in my next entry). But I definitely do agree that in the end, it has benefits too (like the independent learning thing which I have never thought about before). Thank you so much for the motivational words! I will study harder and [attempt to] follow your footsteps!
Happy Belated Birthday!!! Glad to see you had an awesome time out and yum Korean!
Closer to school? WOOHOO! That is a miracle and one of the best things to hear. Free periods last are again, a blessing. Enjoy them when you can!
Thank you! Korean food is one of the best because I'm a sucker for spicy food. Funnily enough, everyone goes to the library to hang out during free periods. It's like if you go to the library, you will always see at least one of your friends just hanging about and around.
Imagine how hectic this would be if mhs was like 'Yo, let's join our swimming carnivals together'.😂
OMG THE SCANDALS! House Cup (which is a joined event for Year 10's only) is already one of the most controversial events because every year, at least 80% of the people complain. Each year, we complain about them being stupid and aggressive and they complain about us being annoying and petty. Maybe this is why an mhs x mghs couple never survives (I mean have you ever met a married mhs x mghs alumni)
But ew I would be so uncomfortable standing next to boys in their speedos (I believe their swimming uniform is a school speedo...don't ask how I know)
*That feeling when the class doesn't follow the textbook structure*
Totally understand this and if you want to have a more solidified understanding before you even get there to class, just ask the teacher at the start of every week what they plan to cover, hopefully, it gives you an idea what to expect. Anytime for advice~ 💕.
I love all of your advice. I think I should just look at the course outline - whose existence everyone seems to forget - in order to get ahead. Most macrob teachers are reluctant to let students get ahead which is really annoying. They think that everyone should learm it once the teacher teaches or something like that. Not to mention, they bear grudge against tutoring (except for my cool as spesh teacher who has no problem with it).
That is a whole mood. Imagine having a clean locker let alone a locker that's big enough to put your stuff in.... (I literally only have a bag and food in mine. Thanks for the snowball treat suggestion~)
HAHAHAHA I want a middle locker one day...one day. Year 9 top locker was the worst though, things would fall from my locker onto other people's heads and let's just say...it wasn't very nice.
I wouldn't be surprised if I can't even fit food in there. They might as well give us those hooks like in primary school (okay maybe lockers are the better option)
Also anytime for the snowball suggestion haha. Glad it was helpful
I'm so glad to see you are doing amazing Chopsticks! Good luck and keep up the beautiful work! You will be fine and you will absolutely smash 2020!
Thank you, thank you and thank you again. You have no idea how big of an impact your words have. Also, 2020 is your year! Own it and beat the shit out of VCE, I know you will do amazing
