The secret with uni

As I and probably many people believed, the less work you putted into school the more time you would have to do "fun stuff", your grades would'nt be the best but you would pass if you struggled some.

But the thing is that if you just put in some extra work then you will be able to understand what the lecturer is talking about, which means that you pick up on so much more stuff during the lecture. You can actually ask legitimate questions that are relevant.

You don't have to be nervous before a test because you know you've done your best and that is the only thing you can do.
I received a few good tips in the beginning of this semester. One was to write questions to myself and write the answers to them. When I got that tip I sighed and thought that that was just a little bit too much for me.

Even though it seems like hard work to do all that writing its actually a faster way (for me) to get things into head. So even thou it seemed like harder work it became a more efficient way to learn and it got me way better grades.

Questions can be dumb as well because its to myself I am asking them.
* What is a kidney?
* What does it do?
* What is a glomeruli and how does it work?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't fall behind and ask your self if you've done the work.

Then will have plenty of time for all the "fun stuff" and you will feel so much more entitled to do it. If you know the feeling on Friday afternoon after a hard week at work, it's spring and the sun shines through, then you know the feeling.

Do whatever you're doing properly and enjoi

Monday


















Monday today, woke up 5.30 ate a banana and a can of tuna in the car och picked up the crew on the hill.

Bjarte was so tired so even the I whipped her with a towel she would'nt get up.
She screamed at me and was mad and she appropriately apologized to me in school a few hours later ;)

Two weeks ago I gave them a hand when they were moving to their new place (which it looks like I am moving into). They gave me this TRASHED surfboard.
It needed a few and another 10 patches.

It was about the right size for me though so I put some fibreglas and a new fin on it and it turned out pretty good.
I've got to the point that I catch most of the waves with my big 8.7 foot board.
Today I tried out this 6.6 board, it was almost like starting out on square one.
Caught a few ones but fell off when I tried to stand up.

Ohh and a PS. my life look just all fun but noone sees when I am studying the sunny days and have to turn down everything else or when I wake up at 6am just to get into my books. I have nothing to do at home else then studying so when I am home I am "always" studying so when there is some swells or wind I have earned to get out there.
