Hello, the end is near
Chemistry paper 3 was, wow. Best chem paper in my life. Not that it was easy, but at least no blanks in the paper. Not saying I'll get very good marks for it, not likely I will, but at least a decent pass. That's really something for a paper which I (and many others) have yet to pass since last year.
13 DAYS to the end of prelims.
79 DAYS to the end of A levels.
Sometimes, when life becomes nothing but waiting for the end to come, you've got some serious issues. So do the 12763 million others in school around the world. Sure, it's become a motivation to press on, and last to the very end, but at what cost? Let's weigh the pros and the cons, shall we? Just like a good GP student should.
Pros:
-Get good results, get into a good course
-After that, lead a life where YOU decide your choices
-Bragging rights to a piece of laminated paper
-Satisfaction from all the hard work
Cons:
-Effectively, 2 years of your life, gone. You know why many sports stars begin to shine at about 18-19 years of age? Exactly.
-Incurable trauma and brain damage
-Many diseases have been attributed to loss of sleep
-May induce short term memory loss
-May induce short term memory loss
So.... after weighing....
Bio beckons.
