Lost in the middle - getting organised and debt free

Marru

I was in the matrix thread about to have a moan but then after reading all the ups and downs of other people I came hiding here with my pesky problems.

Ok the problem is this: I am tired. Exam is on Thursday. I am running out. Even if I wanted to study - which I do - my brain can't take it in. I am so tired I could cry.

I have tomorrow off from work to study. I was hoping to get at least 3 mock exams done but now I have to go back to office in the morning to finish something I started today. Hopefully it won't take me more than half an hour. Unfortunately nobody else can do it as they can't read Finnish.

So tonight is going to be a write off and I just need to see how much I can cram tomorrow. I don't have good vibes about this exam, but every time I think I can't pass it I keep visualising myself opening my email and getting the result: PASS!

And to be honest, if I was working with animals the way I want to they couldn't give monkeys if I am ACCA or not. PAH!

Marru you are tired. Put the books away and stop beating yourself up.

Things are always better in the morning. I am a morning revision person and i haven't failed an exam yet - but it has been a while since i sat one!!!

You have so much to deal with please stop being so hard on yourself.

Go into work tomorrow, then try to work. If you can't you can't. It is your bodies way of saying you are doing too much. Please listen to it.

Best case scenario, you can revise tomorrow when you are energised after a good nights rest. Worst case scenario, you can resit.

That is the worst case scenario petal. Do not beat yourself up.

Please, please just allow yourself to rest. Look at George, he is ill now and finally he realises how hard he works and sometimes he just has to stop.

We all love you lots ok. If you like do some cross stitch or watch tv.

You are a darling SW - and I can do both at the same time. Bed by 10 me thinks.

Remember there is only one you. YOU are precious. Bloody exam will be there anytime you want to sit it but only if you keep your health. That must come first. Are you Superwoman you do soooo much? i have no idea of how you do it and you support everyone on our thread too. You need to chill more and make time for yourself.

Big hug, here's what i sent George, you can have one too.

Marru

Thank you SW, you are an :A

Had a good sleep and also was cheered up this morning by this from 3D's thread:



Hopefully that is not going to be me later when doing revision. However I wouldn't mind being that cute. Oh and I have said that if there is another life I will come back as a cat. They just have it made for them. So watch out. One day your cat will go on your laptop and type: Marru - that'll be me

I have had a second spreadsheet commission. I won't get paid but the boost in my confidence is worth so much more than money. Plus I love doing that kind of stuff. Will get on with it after tomorrow. Weekend planned at BF's so it will be relaxing for me. Only thing is that I need to stop thinking all the things that I should be doing at home (like unpacking after the move that was almost a month ago :eek:)

Anyways, must dash...

So day is pretty much gone. It took me two hours to finish the work this morning and then I was able to come home to study. Done exam question practise and it hasn't gone exactly well.

While DD was in the beavers I was so tired that walked to the W1ld Bean cafe to get a coffee (and some chocolate for tomorrow), walked back to my car (parked outside scout hut), sat in the car listening ZZ Top (I had THIS on repeat) and relaxed. While doing that came up with a plan.

I am going to mindmap all the formulas tonight and take those mindmaps to the train with me tomorrow. I think that is the best use of the little time I have left. So I went to Mr S to get colourful felt tip pens, have dug my printer paper out from moving box and going to get started shortly.

The best thing is that when I log on next time it is all over for now.

ZZ top. Reminds me of a student house i lived in. The boys used to smoke wierd stuff and if you went into the kitchen you had to change your clothes as they reeked of whatever they were partaking in at the time. They played ZZ top. Which i quite liked in a funny way. Remember Sharp dressed man ??? (was that one of theirs?) Glad i have my own place now!!!

Good luck for exam. All this prep sounds positive. You can only do your best Marru, I will pray for you. I am up at 5 probably to prepare nonsense for work too. Roll on tomorrow night hey.

hugs and all the best, sw.
