Long time no see (or write in this case)!
I have been kind of busy with school, my writing course etc.
Things to due and things that I have done already seem like two never ending lists. When I get one thing done 2-3 new things appear. At least I got some good grades from the last exams and my first Economics commentary is done. Now I finally understand what some second years meant when they said that Econ IA is the easiest and hardest at the same time. Writing 750 words is really hard for someone who has lived the IB already for 1 ½ years and the same left to go. It's not hard because you don't have anything to say for 750 words, it's hard because yo could easily write another 750 without any repetition.
I figured out a really nice way of keeping track of all the deadlines and assignments that need to be done. I got this cork board and made these little signs with different assignments. I covered the signs with plastic (kontaktimuovi) and 'cause they have the plastic I am able to write and wipe the text away when writing with a non-permanent marker. And to make the whole thing look nicer I added some decorations to the signs marking what thing is it related to.
- Pink fabric tape means languages --> nice to notice how I have the most of those
- Blue fabric tape- sciences and math
- Colorful tape - social sciences, my favorite ones
- Teddy Bear - CAS- reflections
- Ice-Cream - out-of-school things like my writing course

These are just some of the ones I have...
