why do u study (1 Viewer)

[Adrian.]

So I can get into this http://www.unsw.edu.au/virtualHandbook/programs/3653.html

 

[*girl04*]

I study (cram) last minute because of the stupid expectations teachers have of me

Math Teacher expects me to get Band 6
Society teacher expectsme to top the year
History (Anc) teacher thinks I'm capable of great things
and to top it all off my bio teacher thinks I "exude a air of confidence and orgination"...what the hell

The only reason I stay up studying most of the night is because Im terrified of the look they will give me if I dont live up to their expectations...the dissapointment they would feel. I suppose its my own fault for getting a bit too close to some of them...

I feel like you alot of the time! my teacher told me she thinks i will come 1st in our entire grade for a subject ( i missed 2 whole terms of work) and she goes nah your heaps good dont catch up and im like what??!?!? CRAZY and yeah so i was scared to start this assign because i didnt want to stuff up becaue my teachers would be sooo disapointed in me! the only good thing u can make of it is motavation i guess


but it is sort of annoying coz if i do good in an assesment the teacher is just like yeah"thats coz ur naturally smart" and im like damn all those hours i studyied and it gets passed off as natural.

So i can beat the arrogant fags who think they are soooo good, to get a degree, to feel happy about the marks i get.

Don't worry, I don't think anyone here was under the impression that you had anything resembling intelligence.

[tomorrows_angel]

Hmmm and here was me thinking that BOS was a good way to procrastinate... Oh well, i'll procrastinate anyway. I have a serious problem with that. I want to study but i have a 2 second attention span. If and when i do study, it's cos i want to get into a decent course at uni... however that doesn't happen very often. If i screw up this year i'm going to repeat at tafe next year and then i can get a good uai (cos i'll already know it and it would give me a chance to learn the things that i've never understood.. like the whole chemistry course!). When i do study it's usually when i have something to prove.

 

[Egghead]

study haha.. No thanks

 

[Xayma]

Why do I study, because my trials started last friday so I should study now.

 

[Silver Rose]

I study because I'm aiming to be one of those smart blondes

 

[miss_pie]

so that i can go to uni...

 

[SipSip]

Pfft...don't see them again after the HSC exam...then no you can't see the teachers faces.

 

[Slidey]

I study because I'm aiming to be one of those smart blondes

Godeeeeer you!

 

[mervvyn]

In theory i am studying so that i can get into the course i want to, and so that i can be satisfied that when i look back i gave it my best shot. However the way things are going, i am not studying that much (and with trials starting on friday!) because either i have found more interesting things to do/think about (msn is a tool of the devil, i swear) or after that, it all looks like too much and i give up quite quickly.
Three cheers for the HSC... or not.

I remind myself often- There is a point to studying, im not just doing it for fun, it will lead me somewhere. It is the only thing that has kept me sane today. It is now 12am, and ill be hitting the hay after a whopping 9 hours of study, starting round 2-3pm(Giving a one hour gap for a healthy dose of procrastination).

I am so hard-kore.

 

[evilc]

ditto, screw paying some ridiculous amount of money for an education and a bit of paper to totally risk it by not studying.
besides, i really dont want 'ff' written on my academic transcript forever.

Yeah, no way i ever want to see and FF on my transcript..thats the only reason why i am staying up all night writing a shit essay to be handed in at 9am

Although I'm sure that there are people out there who do enjoy writing essays on the recent problems related to coal ships queuing off the port of newcastle

"I really should procrastinate... Meh, I'll do that later." *studies*

Now that is a concept i can embrace...or at least I wish I could...

 

[glycerine]

i study cuz i have goals

of course, i'm not very motivated. all i want is money money money.

 

[Jago]

all i want is bang bang bang, but what are you gonna do?

 

[hyperbole]

I study to get into the course that I want at the Uni that I want.
However, disppointment of family and teachers also plays a huge role.
