Hey Blog! I’m going back to the very first weekly post I uploaded here, and giving you an update. Things have come a long way since then!
My week now looks something like this.
Monday: Chemistry, and Physics, online classes with Southwest Science School, iGCSE level. After this, English Language and or Literature (with Mum), and/or Maths (online program, usually done with Mum, but most of the time I understand it perfectly and there’s no need to discuss).
Tuesday: Biology online class, again with Southwest Science and again at iGCSE. More English and maths. Yes, I know, a bit repetitive but that’s what’s needed at the moment. Helping at Beavers as a Young Leader in the evenings. Hopefully going forward there is another volunteering opportunity, which I need for my Silver level on Duke of Edenborough’s award, though the day and time is not fully confirmed yet.
Wednesday: Sometimes, a day out with friends. About once a fortnight, piano lesson. (Practice is every day, or supposed to be, and about 40 minutes). Usually a continuation of the rest of the week’s studies, and revision of one or two sciences.
Thursday: More of the six subjects for this year’s exams. Explorers meetings or DofE in the evenings, the former usually either active or creative, the latter mostly planning the route and the equipment needed for the expedition.
Friday: Anything I haven’t done yet in the week. Last year, cricket training was on Friday evenings, however this year it’s expected to happen on Tuesday evenings once we can play outside, as in the under-17s I’ll be training with the seniors. Feeling old already. The plan is a slightly easier and more relaxed day to end the week, but in reality it’s more likely to be the maddest, most rushed day of all as I am desperate for everything to be done before the weekend.
Saturday: There is often something extracurricular on this day, i.e. YAC, Scout camps, days out. Sometimes, however, I just want to laze around at home, reading. This is the best day for anything interesting which does not involve academic study or keeping up with friends and relations.
Sunday: Most often the quietest day. I should be done with everything, and the most common day for family outings. Currently, as it is winter, cricket is indoor and happens on Sunday afternoons.
