Welcome!!

Most of the time when I update my journal it’s because I’m procrastinating too haha

Quote
I'm feeling okay about my SAC (that's also kind of worrying- does anyone else always feel as if they go so much better when they are really stressed for things than when you feel completely chill??)
There’s definitely a sweet spot - too confident and you’ll make silly errors, too worried and you won’t be able to concentrate (and you’ll make silly errors). If you go in feeling confident make sure to read the question properly, answer it, then reread the question to make sure you actually answered all of it. My biggest mistake when I go in feeling confident is looking at it, going ‘I know this, easy’ and then missing part of the question.

Quote
Anyways, I should probably stop treating this like it's more important than my looming psych SAC and actually go do work.
I don’t know how much the study design has changed from when I did it but my teacher always thought it was very funny that we learnt about learning at the very end of the year, when we didn’t have much time left to use it.

With the release of the exam timetable everything feels way more real - I can't believe that end of year exams are approaching so soon when I am currently panicking about mid-years. I guess I've just been thinking lately how everything ultimately boils down to this one exam even though you've spent a year(s) studying and practising, or for other subjects like English your entire schooling life. I've been maintaining A's since year 7, and it's just so annoying to think that all those years of work could fail me in the moment I need it most next year. 

It's weird, innit? But if you put yourself in a good position (which it sounds as though you are), I reckon more often than not the exam sort of falls into place. You can definitely perform well or otherwise on the day, but IMO good preparation very much limits the "damage" a "poor exam" can do. :)

Have enjoyed your posts! Love the fact that we can follow this for the next 18 months. :D

Favourite TV show(s): Grey's Anatomy (ahhhh i love this show so much), Brooklyn Nine-nine (highly recommend) and Skam. If anyone has TV show recommendations, I would love some because I have run out of things to watch  :(


GREY'S ANATOMY, it's one of my top 3 or 5 favourites (along with Gossip Girl, Suits, Stranger Things and unfortunately Master of None), I've admittedly haven't watched it since Derek Shepherd's death (but I still replay his moments from the show, not going to lie he was one of my first crush). 

Most of the law aspects on Suits aren't very interesting (although I did gain a slight appreciation of the complexities of corporate law), but the dynamics and relationship between the characters are lit. (not surprising since the cast is very close-knit) Gossip Girl is one of those shows that people don't know why they love it, but it's very much filled with drama and makes you laugh at how fucked up all the characters are. Stranger Things cinematography and story line development is spectacular. Master of None, not really sure whether I can watch it again after Ansari's allegations, I'm still at a lost in regards to how to respond to his work or future works, but it is very funny and I enjoyed it a lot when I watched it.

I would also recommend the first couple of seasons of Walking Dead, it's a bit of a drag now, but the first couple of seasons gives you the goosebumps of life's fragility and survival instincts. Black Mirror is confronting, original and thought provoking, also great if you don't want to get addicted to a show. Sense8, because the ending is sublime (the rest of it is very good as well but the ending is very complete). I've only watched a bit of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, but it's very funny. Revenge ended quite a while ago, but it one of the shows I connected to the most alongside Greys Anatomy, because I related to the main character, there are also quite a few lessons about humanity along the way. How I Met Your Mother, because I grew up with the show.

Haven't watched the following but have heard really great things about them; Games of Thrones, Breaking Bad, The Good Place, The Crown and The Handmaid's Tale. I don't mind a bit of horror, so I'm interested in Westworld. Narcos is appealing but I'm not sure how accurate the show is. Love by Judd Apatow is also on my to watch list because I like a bit more comedy. I am also looking forward to Maniac's (Emma Stone and Jonah Hill) release on Netflix
