I’m intellectually uitgeput lol. Its as if though physically drained, and feel like I am about to collapse any moment now. I wish school closed for study leave or something. That way I wouldn’t have to sacrifice my precious sleep. Anyhow so far I completed my factorisation of 3rd degree polynomials. Still need to work on linear programmin and the basic countin principle (for paper three.) haven’t as yet begun on physics, eco, afrikaans n english..think i will hit the shower now and afterwards do a 30 minutes visualization/meditation session to rejuvenate my mind. Will keep you updated..

How I did it: It all came down to determination and constant hard-work. I constantly reminded myself of the great benefits that would accrue to me if I did achieve this goal, and I guess the pressure from my parents, teachers and friends contributed also contributed somewhat. I put in hundreds of hours towards attaining my goal, sometimes even sacrificing my sleep and waking up at 2 morning just to revise what I had previously studied the night before.… Read how I did it…
Woke up at 3 this morning to study, but I realized that I dont have enough time to finish whatever I set out to do! It took me almost two hours to just grasp functions and their inverses (but thank God I fully understand it now). I was disappointed because aside from mathematics, i only finished one unit in Physics. I expected to complete some Eco, English and Afrikaans..but i guess thats life hey? Things dont always turn out the way we expect them to. Today however, i will be dealing extensively with factorisation of 3rd degree polynomials and linear programming. For physics i will complete mechanics and two units of economics (one forward and one backward). And not forgetting Afrikaans and English. The more practice i get doing the exercises the better prepared I will be for trials and finals. Anyways gotta go now. Will report back on my progress later on.
Gee, today was quite productive despite all the shit that was taking place! I realized that I am a fundi when it comes to financial mathematics (h00ray! Yay me!!) and that getting a distinction in physical sciences is something totally achievable. I didn’t quite exactly achieve everything I set out to do in my schedule, however I did accomplish quite a bit and I am proud of myself for having done that. Tomorrow I am gonna wake up at 3 a.m. and study to make up for what aspects I couldnt complete today. Things are looking quite good :)
