Trust me, if you're not in the mood to do it, it's best to wait until you are. I know it's not the sort of thing you need to hear right now, but look at the other night when I was on here. I didn't have any motivation to do my assignment, so I left it until the morning and got it done then. It probably wasn't the best effort, but I felt better for leaving it.

I didn't really bother that much, a quick skim of the books, a couple of nights before and that was it, hang on, wait, actually..... look at me now, get going Paul! That shoudl be motivation for you.

On a serious note, don't over worry yourself, especially if its mock exams which usually fall in January. Do some, but not loads and loads. Thats what I did and I made it to uni and got through that!

Revise, otherwise you'll end up like me; sad, lonely and spending all day posting crap on message-boards.

Hopefully that should be all the inspiration you need.

Aah revision...don't remind me. I just set aside time each day, and get everything over and done, different subjects for different days. Sounds soooo organised, I just never get motivated to stick at it everyday, lol. Its the holidays now, my brains off until January.

Just dont allow yourself to listen to Chris until you've done some revision.

I do things like that, kinda like, i cant watch something I want or listen to him unless I haven't done it. Usually works. I try get it out the way asap, then I don't have to worry about it.

It is always better to get it out of the way, but it's sooner said than done.

I always plan to start revising sooner rather than later, but I always end up leaving it til the night before, meaning I've had no sleep, which is a really great condition to be in when u do an A level chem paper! :roll:

I've got a load of assignments to do before next term, so I'm gonna make myself do some of it tomorrow, and then I can watch the video I got my brother for Christmas :twisted:
