Life so far.
Last weekend is what I'd like to call the "Hell Weekend". Never in my life was I given so much work to finish off to the point that I was ready to burst like an atomic bomb. Let me remind you that the assignments I was suppose to finish that weekend was not a last minute, procrastination, "should've done it earlier" kind of thing. It was just a shit load of assignments given from a couple of lecturers who were freaking out over key-ing in mid semester marks and were unaware that their students had other subjects to attend to. Let me just list down the things that had to be done before the weekend was up:
Calculus and Vectors 12 (MCV4U):-
1. Prepare respective part of slides for Chapter 7 summary presentation (group presentation of chapter
7 of MCV4U)
2. Prepare nine Chapter 6 & 7 quiz questions+solutions as part of the Individual Study Unit (ISU)
3. Prepare summary notes for mentioned presentation (this wasn't a "rajin" thing. I really had to summarise a part of chapter 7 of MCV4U, type it out, print it, compile with my group members summary notes and hand it to the lecturer and students)
4. Compile my quiz questions+solutions with my group members'( quiz questions+solutions) and turn it into a quiz packet for the other students as part of chapter 6 & 7 revision for the upcoming test.
5. Study chapter 6 & 7 for THE UPCOMING TEST, which was today....
6. Finish chapter 7 homework.
Challenge & Change [social science class] (HSB4M)
1. find more research articles related to negative effects of media.
2. From there, pick two out of the many articles and write a summary about it along with the author of the article's biodata and determine the article's bias (among many other things).
3. Find its citation(bibliography, reference etc.), type it down (according to format) and attach it with the summary.
4. Determine the thesis hypothesis for ISU. (F.Y.I this subject requires us to create a thesis project as part of the ISU)
Biology 12 (SBI4U):-
1. Complete lab report on Catalase Enzyme Reaction
2. Study Chapter 1 for Biology test, which was that exact Monday after "Hell Weekend"
So that pretty much summarizes "Hell Weekend". As you can see the bulk of the work stems from Calculus and Vectors which is pretty unexpected considering the fact that it's basically just math and "shit heavy load of assignments" usually doesn't attach itself to that. Safe to say I survived that weekend but with some bruises and a flu along the way.
I would be lying to you if I said I didn't suffer from a meltdown at some point but I recovered quickly and did my best to get back to work. It really was quite a weekend and I really hope (like honest to god!!!) that these weekends cease to exist ever again..........................But I doubt that. My dad told me that I need to learn how to handle my stress better which is true, because he ensures me that there will be more weekends and sometimes weekdays like this in the impending future.............

WWHHHHHHHYYYYYEEEEEEEEE!!!???????!!! *takes a deep breath* Fiuh, I just gotta take it day by day that's all and hope for the best. At least with all this heavy work load experience I'll be better prepared for university (I hope)...........
