I messed up geog. very badly. but I won't have to look geog in the face for the rest of my life! Actually 2 years of studying geog isn't very long, but I alwaysalways do badly in geog because I fail to memorise the diagrams properly and actually study, so it's all my fault. But geog would be pretty useful if I ever decided to work at greenpeace, for example, which I have considered doing. Because working at greenpeace without a geog alevel is pretty useless, because its all humanitarian issues and stuff. (. .) I don't even know what exactly is it they do [I am useless!], but they dabble in all kinds of things, especially environmental issues so obviously someone has to use geog. And my entire point of this is that I will never ever ever get a job involving environmental conservation because I am not continuing it for the rest of my secondary school life- and if you don't do geog in sec3 and 4, you can't do it in JC right? so yes, no more geog, unless I take humanitarian studies 101 or something in university. Butbut my gpa is much more important! and I don't really like geog, to be honest. You might ask, how can someone who is so into conservation not like geog?! honestly! but conservation is a weenie bit of geog and I find the rest of it boring): (sorry andrea and joyce) Though it is fairly easy to do the essay questions and mcq in geog, I always flunk the structured questions! the ones you actually have to study for -_-' at least there are no structured questions in history, which I initially decided on doing, instead of physics.
But I think I will adopt the very inconvenient method of trying to juggle tripscience lit for a month or two to see how I manage, and then switch to history if I suffocate. Mum firmly believes that I will have no life/ job /future if I don't do triple science, and what can I do, work in the ura? look at all the a*star people! they all major in biochemistry, biotechnology, [insert variant] No one majors in english literature or history! To which I go: "All those smiley people in the paper will become research assistants and have less of a life unless they take their major to the phd level, which takes a ridiculous amount of funding and time! I don't want to be a college student forever trying to pay for tuition and pass my finals!" you get the point. Although I obviously will not have the ability to go that far, much less get a scholarship from a*star, and I am thinking in extremes- I could stop somewhere in the course of getting my phd, get a job, and then continue.
>< its 1230 already and this teacher keeps on coming in to see what I am doing (I'm in 210) so wish me luck for math! and congruence and similarity and the crazy proofs and ratios.
