~May Your Light Shine :D~

So I just spent 3 straight hours studying for Geography and my butt hurts and my brain is all woolly. Hmm... I managed 2 topics even tohugh my initial plan was 3(now see why I'm an INFP? Always with unrealistic goals) but at least I wasn't distracted.

I HAVE TO DO WELL FOR MY MID YEARS EVEN IF IT KILLS ME since I've been failing my tests and all this year(for some reason I don't know. which is why Im suddenly mugging so hard). If I don't then the guilt will just pour down on me like treacle...

Anyway I HATE HATE HATE technical terms and keywords and such.

1. The stomach, ileum, islets of Langerhans were not created with NAMES. They're just different parts all inter-connected. There isn't a LINE drawn to indicate where the stomach ends and the intestine starts. If you understand the concept of digestion and assimilation but can't remember the keywords and scientific names, then no matter how detailed and accurate your portrayal of the process is, you won't get a single mark. Unfair? Very.

2. Why are they testing our memory capacity instead of our understanding of the subject??? This doesn't reflect our academic capabilities at all.

3. I don't understand how some people can start studying 2 weeks before a test and still remember by then. Hello, I forgot the information within 24 hours.

4. More tests please so we know what to expect?

5. Teach us, don't confuse us. And it doensn't help that you teach 2 different chapters at one go. IT really doesn't. Now my mind is all screwed with mix-ups of scientific concepts.

I WILL STUDY. I WILL. I shall regain the sweetness of my 16th year after the O Levels.
