Do you ever get in those moods when you just can't study. you know you should and that if you could just get yourself started you could get completely absorbed and do some amazing cramming. BUT for some reason sitting down and reading those notes seems to do nothing. This is me right now. I open the page and look at it and yet nothing (and I really mean nothing) is sticking in my head. Lucky me to get a brain block when I have a major test wednesday. I think it is made harder because I got a test back today and didn't do quite as well as I would have like. I did better than I thought, but it still wasn't what I wanted. I hate when I feel like I know the information and yet for some reason it just doesn't come out on paper.
I have a question for the blogosphere: How am I supposed to balance enjoying life, and getting good grades?
I have always been a bit of a nerd and done well in school, but I have also loved life and been involved in many things. At the beginning of this school year I was working SO hard! I did nothing but study, had very few friends and basically did was a hermit. and I hated my life. Lately I have been trying to be a bit more balanced. I go out, I've made some great friends, but I also am trying very hard in school. I didn't feel like this new socializing was impacting my school work, until I got this test back today. I don't know that I would have done any better than I did if I hadn't gone out so much, but I have started to wonder because my grade was quite a bit lower than other girls who I usually can match. So what do I do? just take it as this one test and wait and see what happens? or go back to locking myself in my room?
Hey Chloe! To answer you question,I always find that it is so much easier to study when I am happier, so don't be a shut in! There are always tonnes of fun events at university, or study groups are the best! Btw i can't believe you were trying to study on Halloween!
