Stay on target...stay on target!

The scene from Star Wars: New Hope, comes to mind when thinking about the coming weeks of exams. Red Leader's flight dives into the Death Star trench, approaching the thermal vent that they need to torpedo to save the day. Darth Vader and his fighters fly in after them and practically have easy targets, since the trench is so small. Regardless of this danger, Red Leader constantly encourages his wing mates to stay with him and to..."Stay on target!" "I can't hold it!" "Stay on target!" "We gotta move!" "Stay on target!"

Boom. They all get shot, save the leader, who misses his shot and also dies.
Inspiring isn't it?


My study room. Cupboard has little notes covered in things I need to do and things I need to learn etc. etc.

Anyhow, I know have a little piece of paper tacked onto the cupboard next to me with the days counting down. Today marks 10 days til my first exam, and 17 days til I'M FREE. But until then, I must 'stay on target.'
I have come to the conclusion that celebrating before exams is not a good idea. It was good fun mind you. But it's so hard to slip back into hard studying habits. Before this week, I was doing a solid 4 hours every night after school. Now it's so hard to study straight through the day. This evident in me posting here in this blog when I should be STUDYING.

Stress is getting to me as I watch the numbers tick down. I'm usually quite good when it comes to accounting, but the past two papers I've done show that I'm really slipping up. Ditto for chem. Physics is the only exam I'm really prepared for at this moment. Hopefully hard studying will bring up the others.

I'd like to take this time to say: I'LL NEVER. N.E.V.E.R. NEVER EVER. UNTIL THE SUN DIES. JOIN FACEBOOK *shakes fist in the air

Ok, inspiration for blogging gone. I blame matt for making me try to blog something.
