What did you get done this holiday?

The term holiday is well and truly over :o, so how hard did everyone work during this break?

What did you get done and did you get your "to do list" all ticked off?

You are proud of yourself that you are way ahead OR do you wish you had worked harder because you didn't seem to get anything done...?

I did practically nothing for VCE. It's a disaster.

I turned up at school today and gaped at how much chemistry my friend had done. Her response: "Didn't you do ANYTHING over the holidays?"

Out of everyone, I think you have quite a reasonable excuse ;)

I did no maths (except MM homework - Ch 7 teacher test)
A bit of unit 1/2 chem revision
A little bit of physics - motion :P
Was hoping to get a headstart on Latin, but that'll have to wait til tomorrow morning (tomorrow is our first day back!)
English homework (just a lang analysis essay...)
Remember, remember the 5th of November

2010 - MM CAS (47) - Cisco 1+2 (pass :P)
2011 - Eng - Phys - Chem - Spesh - Latin - UMAT
ATAR - 99.00+ plz... :)

Feel free to PM me for anything :D

True, the time you save in methods and chem will be surely used on other subs. Bio is easyyyy to learn by yourself, you can learn it in a weekend.

That is what I am hoping to do haha.  preferably this weekend lol!

NOTHING, and I did nothing today! WOO-HOO. this is terrible, I've lost all my motivation and I realised, I don't LIKE going to classes anymore, like if I had double spesh, or double eng, I would be soo happy but now I have this neutral kind of apathy.
