The most hectic week of my life
hey and welcome back to 'diaryofanoverthinker' I'd like to start by saying I am so sorry for not posting last week, you'll find out why I didn't post in this blog sine it's related. Today I'll be talking about how hectic this week and term 3 in general has been. This will include my daily routines from Saturday-Thrusday and what I ate because my parents were eating healthy this week and I ended up trying a lot of things I normally wouldn't eat. So sit back, relax and enjoy reading about my suffering
Saturday-24/08/24
Ok in my humble opinion Saturday was the worst out of all the days. I woke up at around 7 and then went to study for math because I had a lot to study and I really didn't understand that much from algebraic expressions and algebraic equations was a 50/50 and don't get me started in geometry. So I ended up doing that for most of my morning trying to grasp the concepts and failing miserably. After awhile when I more or less started to get it I moved on to EMS because I was writing on Monday and this was sadly not the accounting side of EMS that I excel in anddd I have a new teacher so that made it worse because I didn't know what to expect.
At about 11 I decided to go shower and just take a break because I was exhaustedly hadn't eaten and my dad just got back from a work trip so obviously I wanted to talk to him for awhile.So I showered, had something to eat and chilled for awhile just to rest my brain a little before diving right back into work.
I then went to work on a few projects and to be fair it was mainly finishing them up . That consisted of bibliographies, seeing if I had all the information needed since they were both research projects and just the finishing touches. I then moved on to making math questions for a math board game I had to do for a project in a group because that was the last of thing is had to do. Now this may sound like a little but honestly it took up my whole day so it was quite hectic.
Then I spent the night resting and watching T.V since I'd need to wake up early the next day.
Sunday-25/08/24
Ok Sunday was still busy but slightly less hectic compare to Saturday.The morning started with more math and EMS,the concepts getting easier but I was still struggling a however I did actually eat breakfast and start a little later on Sunday so it made it easier.
After I studied which was around 11/12 I went to go shower and we ate lunch and relaxed for awhile, just the usual break you'd take when studying or having to do a lot of projects.
After the break I decide to start up.2 building projects that took up most of the afternoon. I did however have help from my dad so that made it a lot easier but it was still hectic and busy.
Honestly after that I just chilled all night and went to bed because I was exhausted .
Monday-26/o8/24
Ok school was the same work ,messing around, being big backs , walking back to class slowly ,drama, gossip the normal high school day mixed with studying/revising all day because we were writing at the end of the day. The paper it's self was quite challenging and I actually have no idea how I did because even the smartest people in my class struggled.Not to mention it was also the day I had to present my math board game to our teacher and that was chaotic but it went well and we got a good mark.
When I got home I changed into something more comfortable and had a small snack before proceeding to study even more math because math is a matter of practice and that's the only way I get the concept.
After awhile of studying I decided to go and shower and read Salaah before having dinner which was a really odd dinner for me ,delicious but odd. Like I said at the start my parents were trying to eat healthy and my mum had been making salad and obviously we tried the Logan Paul salad which I can't lie was actually really good. However on Monday I didn't have a Logan salad I made this chicken salad thing which had cucumbers, red onion, apples, chicken obviously, mayo and some zatar. Honestly eating a salad is something that made me feel older and grown up because younger me, well even last year me would never but I mean it was really good so I don't have any regrets .
Tuesday-27/08/24
Tuesday was a bit hectic because I had a project due and I had an Afrikaans lit exam which I was stressed about, because Lit exams in general I difficult and I only did well in my English one this year so imagine that but in Afrikaans. However it ended up well and turns out the teacher didn't get to my name yet on the register since she started at the bottom so I only had to hand in and present the next day not that it mattered though because I was done.
Then I came home and had a snack and then guess what I did, more maths.I swear at this point I was so over it but I knew I had to study especially if I wanted good marks and wanted to improve my rank in the top 10 this term. So I did that for awhile and then as usual went to shower and read salaah.
After that I ate dinner which honestly was just chicken with salad and I had bread because as my mother said " She still has the luxury of eating bread" and for that I am grateful because I really love bread.
After that I just chilled because I was actually tired and needed to chill and watch T.V.I also had apples and peanutbutter because its amazing and I'm going through and apple obsession.
Wednesday-28/08/24
Wednesday was pretty chilled except for the presenting of my LO and CA project but I got a good mark on LO so its fine. At this point my whole class was stressed about math and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't also but I was less stressed than everyone else because I'd been studying all week.Although it was a relief because we come out early on Wednesdays so it meant more prep time .
when I got home I had a apples when I got home because I had left over from the night before and since we were out of normal milk and I wanted nesquick I tried alomod milk and it didn't really taste as bad as I though it would.(I don't really know what I've had against almond milk I just always felt skeptical about it)
I then studied for math and I was finally getting it I also noted down all the mistakes I was making as notes so I'd remember them better because I couldn't offered to forget it the day before my test.
I then did my usual shower,sallah dinner oh and we had wraps for dinner which were really good.
I then chilled and went to sleep because I needed to wake up early for math revision
Thursday-29/08/24
The day of the math test had come....DAN DAN DANNNNN. I woke up slightly earlier than normal because I wanted to practice and read over my notes just for some peace of minddd.I then prepared to go to school and studied more in the car because I was writing first period.
When I got to school I needed up teaching people math because well that's what I do and it kinda helps me remember soo it's fine. I then wrote the paper and it really wasn't as bad as I though however I did use the full hour to write because ei was taking my time and triple checking everything.
The rest of the day was chilled and I had not a care in the world because math was over and even though I had tests the next week I wasn't half as stressed anymore.
Well that brings us to the end of the worst week of term 3. Honestly term 3 went from best term to worst term but I think the worst is behind me now and I'm kinda proud of how I handled it. Anywhoo I hope you're all having a better term 3 than me and I hope you enjoyed todays blog. As always feel free to contact me at aidaryofanoverthinker@gmail.com.
