Oh, and if you think YOUR column's lousy, look at mine. >_<

wait. i take back what i said about the amaths papers thingy. cos Mrs Leong just gave us another 1 or 2 more papers, and if she thinks I'm going to finish all 4 papers in 3 days, she can think again.
even i don't love Amaths that much.

So my goals are: Do the RGS Physics paper, the RGS Amaths paper, the Bio papers, the St Theresa EMaths paper, the 2001 Amaths paper 2 , and study Chem. Acid, Bases, Salts, Redox, Energy Changes and Organic Chem. And do the chem TYS on Organic Chem. And start reading on Russia.
Sigh
Anyway, Firet, I'm sorry, but.... I think you have very very high goals to meet. Trust me. I'm the pro at not meeting my goals/ keeping to my schedule/timetable. =p Set lower expectations for yourself. Unless, of course, you do what I did and stay up until 4 am doing AMaths. =p It's really alot.
still hoping I do get some studying done (instead of only doing the whole pile of work that we're dumped with), so that the column on the left will look less pathetic (under mine)

I can't BELIEVE it. I spent about TWO hours with my tutor doing only FIVE lousy sums on relative velocity. And I STILL have 13 more to go. ARGH!!!!!!!! Have I ever mentioned that I really, REALLY hate A-maths? >_< My only reassurance is that we don't have to pass up the homework until Monday.

AND I need to do more work. I've done hardly anything these past few days! I just loathe being so lazy. *kicks self*

Oh, and Ri-chan, don't worry about falling asleep every time you attempt to do your bio papers. At least YOU don't keep falling asleep during Physics lessons. >_< (But I stayed awake today though. What a miracle. ^_^)

And yes, I think I shall set goals for myself this weekend. Tell me if I'm being too ambitious, okay? (Since this is like, the first time in my life I am actually bothering to set a goal for studying, so I am, shall we say, rather "inexperienced". -_-) They are:

- Finish the E-maths papers. (Just need to do the last few questions of a few papers, I think. I know I'm already almost done with the St. Theresa and St. Andrew and MGS ones... don't think I've tried the ACS Independent one though.)

- Work on the Chemistry papers they gave us AGES ago and that I never got around to doing.

- Finish up A-maths papers, as well as the homework previously mentioned. (I am SO looking forward to that. -_- But after managing to finish only 10 questions in one and a half hours in a paper with 14 questions that have to be done in only two hours, I now know that I need as much practice as possible or else I'll never be able to finish the exam paper on time.)

- Do the summaries of the Twentieth Short Stories.

- Read the E-lite (sp?) magazine to improve my lousy English and Lit skills. Guess I'll also compile a vocab list for English, as well as the list of adjectives for mood and tone for Lit at the same time. Also read some short stories so I can improve my already barren imagination.

Looks like a lot. And I'm not even done with the rest of the subjects yet. 0_o

Reminder: If I don't finish at MINIMUM half the stuff on this list, I will REALLY kick myself.

Ok. I wasn't as naughty as I had expected
I finished the St Andrews Emaths paper, as well as Physics Paper 1 of RGS and NYGH. As for bio... I really give up. It really isn't my fault. It's just that it has such an adverse effect on me. I fall asleep everytime I take the paper out to do. It's happened four times. I can even fall asleep while writing out the answers... that's how scary it is. Can't blame me, blame my body. =p

Short-term goals (ie goals for this week): Finish all the AMaths papers we have on hand, the RGS physics paper, the bio paper (yes, I shall attempt to do so), Study Acids, Bases, Salts, Redox, Metals and Air Pollution for chem, finish all the EMaths papers (Which technically is only the St Theresa paper)
Wish me luck
