finals revision day 7

(inconvenient) grogu mug + candle + tea = no crashouts 🤞

moving onto syntax today! i could write the timed essay on it so i am trying to cover it in lots of detail…

idk if that means i should just revise syntax and then have time to do a few practice essays or if i should cover all 3 potential essay topics and have more of a range to choose from?? pls give me any advice this is my first essay-writing final 😭

happy studying! <3

finals revision day 6

4 days and 9 hours until my exam

I worked it out and I should have around 20 hours left which may not seem like a lot but my adhd brain is struggling… so far the max i’ve done is 3 hours a day

i’m going to finish sociolinguistics today and move on to potential essay topics 🫡
