Ooo arr Voondabar

Very great lesson today! I am on the path of self discovery. Today we had a lesson with Dieca about 'mind set' and I found it unbelieveably helpfull, I recognise now why I'm not motivated and why I give up easily. I have a fixed mind set, which is holding me back. You can see from my blog that I dont really set realistic targets and everything is a bit all over the place and I try to neglect the things that I dont think I will be good at or don't particulary like because i think "ill never pass it anyway" or I fell like its not my fortay so I will just concentrate on what I think I am good at. This can change, I dont need to be good at the things I do, I can struggle as you need to stuggle in order to progress, and thats ok, I am not 'thick' or 'stupid' I just lack motivation in areas which can actually be improved.

Last week the only I didnt do anything that I wrote on my blog, The only thing I nearly done was instead of using colored pens I just used sympols boxes and arrows on my notes but the coloured pens would have been more benificial as it would have been more eye catching and I would take things in easier.

History - I need to read the handouts that I was givin and refresh my memory on the suffragetes! I just need to spend about and hour doing this on Thursday as the information is in my brain somewhaere, I just need to access it again.

Lit - Go over things likt onomatopia and enjungmong's (as you can clearly see I cant even spell them and its something that I will learn to do for next week so in my next blog I can say, Yeay I did it)

Spanish - go over connecting words and read over the basics, go over the routine and family as I am a bit lost with that. By spending 30 minutes per night and I need to stick to it as I can study at the weekend I'll be best doing this later at night as it is quiet. and I need to make sure the house is tidy and I have organised everything, otherwise I'll just be trying to study thinking 'I need to hang that washin up' no distractions!

Investegating Europe - I have got a good grasp of the subject now and I know what I want to write about so I need to make a more in depth plan and make a start on the actual project as just doing the front page at this stage is not good enough. I want to have the conflict, a bit on the history and the basic believes of Islam done(first draft). I will go to Joes on Wednesday and be honest on what I have done so far and show him my plan and get some feedback on what he things about it.

English - I am finding English ok at the moment and I am on track I just need to finish the assesment on Calvanism which will only take me about an hour, and I can do that on Wednesday night.

Maths - I need to work on the outcome one and go over percentages and significant numbers and I have to go over 2 questions for my first assessment. I can work on my outcome 2 on thursday night so things are fresh in my head for the Friday.

I have alot to do this week, I do have the time so no excuses. I wont be able to do much on Sat and Sun coz Im going to London, yeay!!! But I need to take this blog more seriously, hopefully next week I will be saying, yes I have did quite alot of my project and I feel more comfertable and confident with Spanish.

Roll on next week.
