four hours sleep?!?

why wouldn't you do less relaxing during the day so you can do more relaxing/sleeping during the night?

sounds like a recipe for a burn out to me.

i was going to say, unless you have insomnia, then it makes sense. then i was like, nah, he might find that offensive if he doesn't.

fair enough. i don't sleep much [not to that extreme] but i have to be on melatonin tablets to get a good night's sleep, but i find that, for me, doing any study is useless after 930. so i try and cram it all into the day so i can be most productive and relax at night. yay for good things coming on tv =]].

god bless Austar :D. I can't take sleeping meds, they counter-act my other meds which sucks but meh, I can survive. Be good for all those late night uni cram sessions i hear so much about. :D

haha, love pay tv. i do have to say, foxtel iq is the best thing ever =]].

ahh okay. melatonin is the hormone that your body produces to induce sleep. so i just take tablets to put extra of it into my body. i hate taking proper meds so yeah.

yeah i know about melatonin. but i have to meds for my bipolar and it counteracts them by causing a release of some other hormone that makes me really depressed and angry (forget what it is called) so i can't take anything like that. The only thing that slightly works is warm milk, but the drowsy feeling wears off after like and hour.

screen shot of the first week of my timetable, the bit on the right is addition of study hours etc, to ensure everything is spread evenly, or if i need to work a bit more on one subject [ie, i don't need to work on french as much as i do everything else] i can see the total hours spent.

when the teachers at my school told us all to make a study timetable i thought they were joking.

I cant believe anyone has one.

Too ridgid. Inflexible. Controling.

What happens if u have free time but u feel ok for studying?

What happens if u have maths but u dont wanna study?

Why base our lives around a stupid schedual?

I thought these were only for people with poor management skills.

Pple, gain some self control, get a grip and have a bludgier life with more sleep (while still doing well at school). Trust me its possible (unless ur a nerd who considers jumping if they get 99% in a test).

True to some extent. I don't have a timetable per say, i just have a list of things i need to do in a set time frame, say a week. So if i'm feeling crap ill go easy and do a 2U maths paper or something, but if I'm feeling up for it, and ext eng essay.

but its whatever works for you. XD

under this system I get in about 6-9 hours a day and am steadily completing my notes / burning up rain forests. I think ill have notes done by the end of this week 4 all subjects then its PP time XDXDXD

Science Adv @ ANU here i come!!

Christ thats a lot.

Maybe im not doin enough. Atm im lucky to do 2 hrs.

Bio and chem i know well enough. Im pretty good at them. lookin at a 93 - 95.

Legal and pe i will slowly remember the bullshit i need to know.

Maths is different. I can do questions well, but if i see one thats beyond my range, i give up. imo doin past questions wont help me in that respect cos that type of maths (Q10) is natural tallent, not practice.

English is a mix of luck, memory and natural talent. So it dont need much attention.

What do other pple think about me?
