Rolled my kitten up into a ball and threw him continuously into the wall and calculated the percentage of times he landed on his feet.

All in the name of science.

We've got 4 weeks! (but 1 week is work experience so technically 3 for holidays).

That's nice! >< I did work experience before my exams, so basically I was using that week to study instead. Where/what are you working? :D
Software engineering - cos actuarial companies don't offer work experience until you're undergrad, where you can do a trainee/cadetship and I didn't try contacting any law firms at that point. What did you do?

Im getting that shit feeling again. You know when during the holidays the first week seems really slow.. Midway through you get used to not having to go to school... From halfway on you feel like its going really fast. urgh

I feel exactly the same way. Still got so much h/w to do as well. I always say I'll do all my h/w and study for all the sacs and everything in the first week but that never happens. I'm such a procrastinator. By the end of it, I'm just gonna regret not using my holidays productively.

I have no reason to not be doing homework right now. I might go nail some. Might download a new album and listen to that all the way through while I study. That could work.

Im just really content at this moment. Im not sure if im content with life or if im just content with this very moment but im so content I dont feel like I should be looking forward at the next 5 months of brutal study.

Im having difficulty channeling my energy into studying too.. its not physical enough. :P

Well I went snowboarding, Downhill and cross country mountain biking, to a few 18ths and last night to a Metalcore concert.

I worked really hard in the last week of school after my sacs to get all my holiday homework done before the holidays started. I've read the rest of the chem and physics text books and am now going back to the start of both my maths subjects rewriting my summary notes and brushing up on the earlier stuff.

VCE: Biology 42 (43.23)|Chemistry 42 (45.88)|English 43 (42.87)|Physics 45 (47.07)| Maths methods 40 (45.14)|Specialist maths 34 (41.70)
