School Update
11 months ago
yikes, last entry = 2 weeks ago. o.o
I have enough done to get decent grades for quarter 2 all subs. I finished all my work in some subs, but I slacked near the end. I am back on track for quarter 3, but I am not counting this as complete until the end of the year.
Btw, my hardwork resulted roughly with A’s-C’s. Unless you count PE which I think I got 53%, haha. I think that is a low C at least… I hate online PE classes.
For those interested in knowing, it is worth doing.
Cheers.

Still working at a 2-week-per-day pace, and it is certainly working for me. I almost have my quarter finished up. I went one day without doing any work though, won’t happen again. It was one of those hektic days.SL
As of now, I have 22 weeks of work finished in 11 days total since marking this goal. It may seem unbearable to say the least at first, but once you sit down and make it bottom line, it was never as hard as you made it out to be.

As of today, I finished my Biology work for the quarter from start to finish. Proud of myself, but I have yet to finish a few scraps I left behind. I have been working steadily at a pace of 2 weeks daily. Excellent!
Will update how much I have done total later on. I don’t have my cal with me.

Well, yet another day considered not gone as expected. In other words, the day was not normal. However I kept to the deal I made with myself, and I actually wanted to waste what rest of the day I had left on a movie or two instead of finishing the second week of work. Just finished my 2 weeks for today, technically in the morning of the next day, but whatever.
It’s an awesome feeling sticking to the plan no matter what pops up or how I am feeling. +1 baby!
That gives me 10 weeks finished, in other words a quarter of work in one sub, + 1 week in another. Five days worth of work so far. ^^
Cheers to not listening to impulses, I’d recommend it to anyone.

I think we all have a spot that is always opened to obsessions, or the thing that is in our spotlight at any given moment. Unfortunately school has found its way into that spotlight. I still love doing other things, but I often catch myself thinking about the next time I will be doing work. The reason I seem unhappy about this is because it is often short lived, and ends.
My aim wasn’t to get it in the obsession spot, but more to balance it in my mind so that I had no problem doing it. Anyways, I hope after a few weeks when the initial motivation to do homework is over with, I can begin really practicing discipline in this area.
I don’t expect this entry to make much sense to anyone else, but it really isn’t for anyone but myself.
Cheers!

Keeping it up.
11 months ago
So far so good, I have had days where they didn’t go as I anticipated, and that got me down. However I decided not to obey my impulses, and instead continue with the plan and suffer through. I love doing things when I least expect to. (such a rush of freedom!)
I have a total of 7 weeks of work(different subs) finished in the past 3 days, which is excellent. All I need to do now is keep it up, which I don’t see as a problem. If I can suffer through the worst of it, there is nothing else to worry about.
Cheers!

My schedule is sporadic, and has been since I can remember. This of course renders a tight schedule impossible. Trust me, I have tried and would love nothing more than to have a nice little organized deal in my life.
So what I have plans for is simple, to do two weeks of homework in a specific subject(s)a day. So basically I will be doing work in bulk, rather than chunks. So if something happens one day, I am not dangerously behind. Surprisingly for me, it really isn’t that hard, at least for home schooling. On top of that, it keeps me far caught up than the average student.
As for actually “doing” my work, I have been religiously. (Yes i love using religiously.) When it comes down to it, it really isn’t that hard. The hardest part is more so getting yourself to do it in the first place. After that, everything falls into place. I force myself no matter how I am feeling, or what my urges tell me to do instead. I feel more confident, relaxed, and focused as a result. Perhaps I will check this goal as done at the end of the year. It’s too soon to count this as being a success, so I will leave it the way it is.

My problem lies in putting it off, the grades are easy enough. I hope to honestly accomplish this goal, as i have failed far too many times to be comfortable in my own skin.
I am with y’all, lets get this done and do it right!
