A quarter way through into the exam week preparation and I wish I could say that I am more than on schedule, but the truth is that I'm lagging behind. It's nothing new because I've been having this feeling for a few weeks now. What's bothering me is that for the last few weeks I haven't been able to solve my problem, probably because I didn't know what the problem was. A feeling that just was not right.
Today as I was dragging my feet through my revision it hit me that what I lacked throughout the whole semester was confidence. I had no confidence in my assignments, I had no confidence in my tute work, and now I have no confidence in my exams either. I had to refer back to the solutions more than half the time, but now that I know the problem I've decided to drown myself with exercises. Practice makes perfect (: Hope it is not too late.
While I'm on the point of no confidence, I figured I might have no confidence for my research as well. Not quite sure what I can do to make that better though. But one thing at a time, right now I just need to make sure I don't do so badly that they kick me out of the course.
