studying...or trying

environment, circumstances and my own mind don't always help

I was happy that our parish feast this last weekend finished, and with it the huge blasts of fireworks, which in Malta are excessive to put it mildly. Then, today there was an incessant jack-hammer going on from around 8 to 7...probably tomorrow there will be more of the same - aaarghh. Plus, I'm not feeling too well but I'll put it down to tiredness and stress. In addition, I'm in a very artistic and creative mood (wrong timing obviously). And then there are thoughts, dreams, worries, etc. which should really just be pushed aside for the moment.

I. NEED. TO. FOCUS.

4 days till the start of final exams.
4 weeks to freedom.

Good luck!!! Wishing you the very best on your exams! It is normal to feel creative now...as that is what your mind lacks at the moment due to all the structured studying that you have to go through! It always used to happen to me.. these creative ideas rushed to my head when I was studying econometrics or international finance..

I somehow miss studying now.. it gave my life a sense of purpose.. or maybe im just having a boring day at work :)

I wish you the very best! It's funny sometimes howthings seem to be out to distract when you're studying... been there... But you should pull through. Best of luck again ...

hi Mar! thanks so much. yeah the reasoning about creativity compensating for all the structured thinking makes sense.
At the moment I definitely don't think I'll miss studying :) although I might a few years down the line, but probably not the studying per se, just being a student ;) hope you're well.

Thanks Gordon. Good luck for your thesis.
