Once again Thankyou and wish you the best of luck for your HSC!!! :)

Graduation!
The end to 13 yrs of schooling !!! Holy heck I feel so numb. I had my graduation on Thursday, and a picnic type celebration on Friday. My mind has been free of anything related to studying, and it was really nice to just live in the moment and enjoy everything with friends while it lasted. I think I cried at least 2 litres of tears, everyday this past week HAHA.
I woke up this morning however, realising that I had to start studying for HSC now (booooo!). I've been cleaning out my study room since I woke up to get me ready in the mindset. It'll probably take me a bit longer, plus some chores I need to do. I should be ready to do some proper study tonight. How daunting!!! I still feel like I'll be attending normal school next term, just like every other year.

Beginnings of STUVAC
Progress has been made! Slowly but surely. My general study plan is to do as much exam practice/many past papers as possible, even if I haven't memorised all my content. I know content enough to do the paper, so if I come across something in the exam that I'm not sure about, I'll add it to a list of things to revise.
On Monday I sat down to do a History Extension paper and realised I didn't know any of my sources. So I went back to my notes and fixed them up a bit; hoping to do the paper tomorrow. I also did a practice English Paper 1, but some of the questions really stumped me. My essay was also a bit :/// since I haven't had much practice writing timed Common Mod essays. By the time night time hit, my motivation just disappeared and I only ended up doing some multiple choice for SAC.
Yesterday (Tuesday), I did the Power and Authority section of a Modern paper, timed. Modern really tires me out!!! I can't fathom doing all of that again; can't believe I managed for Trials. I also did the 2015 HSC Japanese paper, which was good. Japanese exams are probably the easiest to do out of all my subjects. At nighttime, my motivation went out the window again, so I just did some practice HR answer for Legal.
Today, I spent the whole day trying to do a practice Eng paper 2... I kept pausing the timer to take breaks, which definitely defeated the purpose of doing the paper together. I need to work on writing faster, especially for Module A since it's more content to pack into an essay. I managed to do Modules B and C together, but for Module C it was the first time the question asked for only a creative piece, worth 20 marks. I definitely struggled with writing enough for 20 marks, since I always thought the HSC exam would ask for a reflection piece as well?
I also sped through the English Adv lecture today, which definitely reassured me and helped quell my stress. I'm hoping to polish up my Module B quotes and do some essay plans for S&C, but I'm getting super tired so maybe I'll save it for tmr morning.
Well, there's my mundane study update. Hope you guys are all studying well!
Alice : )
