Ehhhh I tend to find that whenever I set goals in my holidays I always end up failing miserably at achieving them and ultimately just do nothing all holidays... So most likely I'll just be relaxing :)

That said, *hopefully* I'll just do the Chem + Physics checkpoints for what we've covered so far... Can't really do anything for English and Latin (cept maybe go over my Cicero once for my Tm 2 SAC), and Methods is a bit... Ceebs. Anything more than that is probably a bit ambitious, anyway.

When I see a youth thus engaged,—the study appears to me to be in character, and becoming a man of liberal education, and him who neglects philosophy I regard as an inferior man, who will never aspire to anything great or noble. But if I see him continuing the study in later life, and not leaving off, I should like to beat him - Callicle

I am going to use holidays to hopefully get well prepared for the Chemistry Mid-Year exam, and get ahead in Economics, Methods, Further and English.

Gonna attempt to write as many practice essays as I can. :D

number of pokemon caught = study score

If I get over 9000 pokemons, I hope my aggregate score is also over 9000.

Thats what all the MHS guys say.

When they say: 'I didn't study' or 'I only did about an hour',
90% of them actually mean: 'I did 3 hours yesterday, 7 on the weekend and revised it this morning in the library'.

i wish. I actually have been procrastinating a shit load. i have studied about 1 hour total for enzyme SAC tomorrow... : (

Don't worry, you could be Rohitpi no.2 and end up with SS of 42 for Bio as well.

Okay, time to stop procrastinating!
