False Statement

Today has been another busy day. As it draws to a close, I still have several things I planned to do left undone. I managed to finish my personal statement, something that I really needed to do for university applications and to stop a number of teachers from killing me on Monday. I got some Physics revision done but by the time I got to that, I was already kind of worn out, so I may do some more before I go to bed and in the morning.

I've noticed recently that I have a bit of a reduced work ethic towards school. It's probably because I'm doing less work, compared to last year, so I feel less motivation to do the work I do have, if that makes any sense. Which I suspect it doesn't. Basically, since no one is forcing me to do lots of work, I feel compelled to do very little.

This has worked well enough so far, but I really need to get it together over the next few weeks for the various tests I have coming up and the projects that I have to begin for Physics and Computing. Not to mention the fact that I need to do some more stuff outside of school, particularly Corbett's Fiction and finally learning some C++ and building my own PC.

Just so you know, I claimed to be doing those things on my personal statement. Which is kind of true, I guess. I certainly intend to have them done by the time I start university, so what difference does it make?

And, just so you know even more, I didn't mention TWToday on the statement. I can justify it by saying that it has no real relevance or something like that, which it really doesn't, but it's also something that I don't tend to like telling people about. Plus I've not liked it so much recently, since I seem to be becoming a bit more whiny. No idea if that's true, but it feels that way. Plus, I'm putting more energy into Corbett's Fiction and generally stretching myself a bit thin and this site is kind of low on my priorities list right now.

But I'm still updating once a day, every day.

Actually, I've thought of a better reason not to mention TWToday on my application. I've admitted here that I made up half the stuff on my statement and that I consider most of the “teamwork” and “qualities” stuff to be utter bullshit.

Yeah, don't want any admissions people reading that.


Just realised, another week goes by without a woodle. I'll try to think of something for next week. By next Saturday, I also hope to have The Grey Line updating again and I really need to write some stuff for the MacTake. Since I mentioned that on my statement.

Well, maybe it'll get cut when the teacher in charge reads over the first draft. You never know.

Actually, I could live with a lot of stuff getting cut from that statement. Like the on-hiatus podcast. It'll come back by mid-October, I promise. With some new comedy sketches that I claim to have written.

Holy crap, I really hate talking about myself and the stuff I do when I know it'll actually affect anything. Or when it'll affect nothing. I really have no idea why I talk about myself so much on here. It's probably because I'm exceptionally arrogant and self-centred.
