The days are coming closer and was wondering how everyone is coping with last minute study. Nervous, relaxed, etc. whats going through your head?

Stop sensationalising the HSC! It doesn't take over our feelings, or at least mine, nor should it.
fmd,kill me. Why do people assume think that before the hsc everyone is having mental breakdowns.

This is why people get so stressed, because the wider society portray the idea that you MUST be stressed or else something is wrong... Also, if people are having breakdowns over the hsc, good luck dealing with life.

Bingo! And even in uni where the workload is harder, there's a shorter time to grasp the content, and when it's actually important you don't fuck up, you're not half as stressed as you are for the HSC. The thing missing from the picture is other people and the smh exaggerating the difficulty and stress level you supposedly 'should' be feeling.

I get sucked into the dark side of youtube on a daily basis
my life

Yesterday I watched documentaries like all day.

At least they were relevant to legal lol...


Today I did four solid hours at the library. Now I'm going to rest for another hour or two then go until 3:00AM, wake up at 9:00AM and continue.

I have serious issues... I know it's like a week away now but I'm still having so much trouble doing anything.
As soon as I finally force myself to sit down and work, I practically fall asleep. I can't focus on anything so I end up doing
Nothing. I really need motivation....

<35 come at me :/

Wow.

Also I'm feeling stressed because of pressure, but I'm studying. This week will probably be a cram week because I have 4 exams in the first week, and then Modern 4 days after.

Sadly, coffee/ energy drinks don't affect me. I really wonder what a burst of stimulation feels like...
I'll let you in on a secret of mine, coffee doesn't affect me either, but I like to think it affects me and I think thinking of it affecting me affects me.

lol I think it's pretty psychological, but I do get that stimulating effect

it needs more and more coffee as my tolerance increases though
