Had no idea I had triple posted. And not able to delete it

Today:

The Human Defence System notes complete and got a start on The Nervous System. Must do exam questions on them and my revision is complete.

Downloaded 2012+SEC Sample Irish Listening Comprehensions onto my phone. Will listen, listen, listen as this helps me with vocab and keeps my ear trained. Did the same for French and downloaded 2011, 2010 and 2009. Just need to do it for German and print out the tapescripts for the listening comps and I'll be happy out.

Listened to French podcasts and took down quick phrases/sentences on terrorism/high security in Paris (read an article on it).

Very productive day!

Revised over ADP, ATP, NADP+, and NADPH today. Refreshed the idea of photosynthesis into my head.

Watched a maths video for differential calculus and practised some exam questions/sample questions.

Practiced French pronunciation of letter "r" and various other word endings. Realised that my pronunciation really needs some work for the French oral.

Looked over material for the Treaty for History.

Happy New Year everyone! Hope 2016 is a blessed year for you all and I hope we all achieve our goals and dreams ☺️

Best of luck!! You can achieve anything you set your mind to. Don't mind me at all, I'm just taking it day by day and not hitting my peak anytime soon, which I think is best. I truly hope you get Med!

Was too tired to post yesterday! But I got French listening comprehensions downloaded on my phone (2001-2015) in full! Finally! Also started this thing where I record myself saying Biology notes onto my phone and I listen to them back. Never knew it could be so helpful! Will definitely be doing this with Respiration, Enzymes etc.

Also got Introduction to Photosynthesis and The Light Stage revised in full, with diagrams, everything. Did the 2015 question on Photosynthesis and other questions on The Scientific Method and Ecology. Also managed to get Picture Story #5 revised for German (In der Jugendherberge ist es besser). Productive day and happy.

Today:

At long last I got a book for my history project! Need to get started on the evaluation of sources asap!

German 2001 Letter done, second opinion piece complete. Half of Text II finished and first section of applied grammar done. Need to brush up on verbs, tenses, conjunctions, nouns, seriously! 😅

Revised over Le Journal Intime: Des Phrases Utiles I. Nice to get the little useful sentences back into my head again. I absolutely love French, just ahhh it's such a lovely language. German is cool also hehe

Watched crash course videos for biology: respiration, the human defence system and like 2 minutes of the endocrine system because we haven't covered it in class yet. I'm actually in love with Human Biology it's not even funny! Love studying it so much aha

Finally got around to King Lear. Typed out notes on Animal Imagery as revision and got theme of Violence down now. Tomorrow, or at least by the end of this week, I need to go over the minor characters: Cornwall, Albany, The Fool etc and poetry! Plath Plath Plathhhh

Christmas break is officially over and I really proved to myself that if I work hard and stay determined I can get anything done. I hope you all had an amazing break and I wish everyone the best as we head into the new term! Only half a year and it's all done forever!!

siebey123

First day back to school today and we got a lot of homework, not going to lie. But most of it is revision so that's cool.

Today: covered "Sestina" by Bishop briefly, revised over Operation Rolling Thunder for History very very quickly. Did 2015 Bio Q6+7 short questions as revision for viruses and DNA isolation experiment.

Did an answer on The Fool for "King Lear" for homework, but it really helped as revision so I'm counting it hehe

Also revised Irish comhra as homework, but really good to get the basics back into my head again.

Good first day back

siebey123

Revision done for "Filling Station" by Elizabeth Bishop and highlighted key notes for "First Death in Nova Scotia." Also managed to get an opening paragraph revised for a "is Lear a tragic hero?" question.

Studied a French opinion piece and noted down new phrases for the opinion section.

Did edits and some extra research for my history project. Just need to put it all together and get my evaluation of sources & review complete.

This was done above a busy day of homework, so I'm happy

I also caught myself thinking about CAO stuff during school and I realised I really really want to go into a social-based area. Like an area where I'm directly in contact with people and I managed to think of a few extra courses in addition to the ones I have in mind already.

Hope everyone's first few days back were good Friday tomorrow!

siebey123

Revised a bit more of "why the audience should sympathise with King Lear.'' Highlighted key terms for Excretion and Animal Nutrition. Highlighted Fianna Fáil Notes for History and read through them. Also planned 2015 P1 Composition.
