Real students just eat chocolate coated coffee beans straight from the bag*.

Okay, today I pumped out 2,000 words that I can regurgitate in the exam (they gave us the prompts so we could formulate our ideas), which is on Monday. So I've got a few days to read over it a few times and get it pretty stuck in my head.
Gonna take a break now and then start to cram more Psych (habits from VCE just don't leave, Psych is always the one that suffers).

What have we achieved today, people?

Also, tomorrow I'm going to study perhaps 2 of 6 Psych topics in depth enough to be exam ready, read my essay multiple times, and depending on how long/how much effort that takes me, decide to either do more Psych topics or start revising for Philosophy/Literature. Goals for tomorrow, people? #accountability #ashamedtobelongtogroupofdedicatedstudentsandstillbeashittruck #hashtagsonANdontbanme

*I don't do this; I am not a real student; I hate coffee.
✌️just do what makes you happy ✌️

I'm cutting out coffee now! Been a few days now. Gone with tea instead!

Haha, I've never had coffee, just can't stand the smell >.<

Bro that girl wouldn't need a whip to beat the fuck out of me. I'm not going to lie to you people. I do what she says. That's that.

If that happens, I will be so happy that I will smash my face against a pile of knives. I'll be honest and say I'm expecting and HD for Human Rights and Philosophy, a very low D/High C for Lit, and anywhere between 60-80 for Psych (smashed the assessments but know none of the content lol so dependent on exam performance cry cry)

You know where the door is!! The taste, the smell... I miss it already :(

I wish!..

I went to uni/library the other day and I probably did more work in that time then I have in the past 2 days... It's so much easier to 'study' at home (study is a codeword for procrastinate ;) ) I might try studying in the kitchen or something now, there's too much distractions in my room. But I am closer to food.... Far out. I'll test something different tomorrow and let you guys know. We can turn this into a research article. lol

I'll report back in a few hours with how much I get done... Hopefully something lol

I'll tell you when I actually get around to starting studying.... sigh....

Seriously though, new location atm for swotvac, I don't know whats best yet... Maybe Library once I get foundations for everything and can just smash out tute questions and past exams, while at home while I revising (well learning the last 4 weeks for the first time...) for each unit.

Either for me too. Home is good to read your notes aloud, library is good to rid yourself of distractions. Hard to find a balance really.

It's quite empty these days actually

I'll tell you when I actually get around to starting studying.... sigh....

So modest D:

I can't focus well at home, even though it's generally quiet. Speaking of which, whereas everyone studies best in silence, I study better in medium noise D:

Green tea has far too low a caffeine content.

2 red bulls + coffee per day is where its at.
And adding low carbohydrates back into my diet for the purposes of ENERGY.

Oh also I prefer studying at home, mostly because getting to uni takes 1.5 hours of my precious time and also money for transport/food/coffee.  Emphasis on the coffee.

Also everyone should start drinking black french press coffee, you really won't know where all the hours are coming from.

I do what she says. That's that.

I now pronounce you man and wife.

Tried Hargrave, bit distracting though the noise wasn't too bad. Tried Caulfield, effectively packed to capacity (people studying on the floor of the aisles).

For some reason I physically cannot study at my desk/in my room, so I moved to the lounge room and somehow got ~a full day of study done for the first time ever.
I'm so proud of myself
