10 hours a day for 1 week. My head is ready to explode. 2 Weeks left to go. 2 exams next week and another the week after. I have never learnt so much in my life, nor have I sat down for so long just to learn before. I don't think I've ever been this dedicated. Whilst, it's good I am so dedicated, I'm feeling so close to burning out right now, but I have a plan, and I think I would go into stress overload if I took a day off and my plan went squiffy. The plan is 4 lectures a day, so far I've managed that very well. Though today I am struggling, only just half way through my first lecture at it's 15.00. Slightly worrying, I may be working into the small hours to keep to my plan.
Deep breath.
I can do this.
I'm aiming for a 1st, something I truly didn't think I was capable of when I started this degree 3 years ago, but my personal tutor has said to me I can do it. I've also had another lecturer describe me as "one of the top two students in the class", which is well beyond how I view myself. I almost feel like I'm working so hard to not let them down, but I think that would undermine the ambitious desire that has been awakened in me these past few months. I've never been this motivated before.
I hope one day I can motivate my own students to feel this way, so they can go on and do wonderful things with their lives.
