I should be studying right now


Tentacruel

Recommended Posts

I have two exams and a midterm tomorrow, but as you can see I'm here instead. I'm probably going to sacrifice my grade, but oh well.


Please discuss times you have procrastinated doing important educational activities or preparation and instead wasted time doing pointless things like posting on YCM for instance. I can imagine the majority of you have experienced this in some form or another.


I have a math test, a C++ test and a wellness midterm tomorrow, and I'm probably not as prepared as I should be. This is a story. I'm currently sitting here looking at the clock passing time for no reason at all.


To discuss this topic please follow these instructions:

1-Recount a time when you procrastinated in school.
2-Form this story into words, preferably English.
3-Type the words into the reply area.
4-Click "Post"

Why do you expect people to respond to a topic with absolutely no thought/discussion inducing qualities? You provided no background, no plot or storyline as to what you are discussing. Why should we care enough to post when obviously you don't care enough to create a decent topic that will divulge into a discussion, instead you post a tidbit of information and expect everyone to just jump right in?

Thank you for derailing the topic. I can imagine the rest of it will stray off topic now.

I find it funny that there are plenty of other threads that have few words and no one gives a s***.

Like all of these.

On another note I would like to say that studying is now officially against everything I stand for as a human being...

One time I saw 3 cars go through a red light and, being the facetious jerk I am, I figured that laws suddenly stopped existing. So I crossed through the red light like a smug jerk, and soon found myself with a ticket. I'll remember this excuse next time it happens though. Thanks.

Only I stopped running red lights and the cops seem to be harassing me about going 3 miles over the speed limit while ignoring the people running red lights.

I procrastinate [i]all[/i] the time
Far to much for me to pull out a story
Just take my word for it (I have a paper due at 11:45 today but I'm here instead of writing it

Thank you for staying on topic good sir, and good luck with your paper.

Oh procrastination, how I love you so. I've been literally failing classes, and still put off work until after it was due. Pretty much my entire High School life was one big procrastination party, although I still magically graduated...
Also am amused at the fact that there have already been a good number of responses to this topic after a certain person said there would be none....

I thought you were the mod for the TCG section.

The TCG section is full of topics with absolutely no thought/discussion inducing qualities. You should be used to it.

I had 2 homeworks due in today, and numerous homeworks due in over the past few weeks. Still not done.

Oh and a homework for tomorrow I really have no motivation to do.

f*** yeah!

Also, anyone notice the irony of Pika complaining about lack of content in the OP, then providing absolutely nothing on topic?

Many a time I used to, back when I had exams. Now the hardest thing I have to put off is searching for a job everyday. Then again I went through a time where 5am on Sat started my homework time, and I could afford to be lazy with homework in my last 3 years of school, hours and hours of frees (14 in my last year)

Two months before Final GCSE's

*You should start revising now*

Hours of revision = 0

[s]_________________________[/s]

3 weeks before Final GCSE's

*You know, you should be doing AT LEAST 4 hours of revision per lesson per week.*

Hours of Revision = 0

it went on like this up until the day of the exams and you know what Happened.

ICT = A and B
Science Double award = A and B
Maths = B
Statistics = B
RE = C
German = C
Geography = C
Drama = C

So yeah, It shows it's not the studying that counts, it's if you test well.

I didn't too bad in my GCSEs with minimal revision, for my A Levels I had my friend to help me with Biology, but got a lot of Us, I think it was more to do with the level of the work rather than the exam. The subjects were just too hard for me...that's what I get for 2 Sciences and Maths in the first year.

I did Physics, Maths and Chemistry, I got a B at Intermediate. That's where the big gap was, it wasn't on the higher paper, so I had alot more to do to catch up really. I just couldn't get the concept of Moments in Physics for some reason, so I was always gonna struggle since Physics and Chemistry are Maths intense where Biology isn't. (Probably why I got a D in it at A Level rather than Us that I got in Chemistry, Physics and Maths at AS). It's all about how Mathematically minded you are really as to how well you do. I'm not, so prefer softer subjects like Geography and Philosophy (well they're considered softer) which is where I got a C and a B.

Just make sure you understand everything if not the teachers should be more than willing to help you and revise hard. A Levels are not really the time to lose focus especially on the harder subjects. And to be honest now I'd rather I'd gone into a NVQ in Learning Support rather than into A Levels.
