Just do the easy things first.
Start with the definitions because definitions take almost no effort (just type define:XYZ into google)
then do the paragraph on the setting bc that shouldn't be hard either
then multiple choice packets bc i mean really, it's multiple choice
then do the pictures
then charts (use these to outline your essay)
then paragraphs (since they require contextual evidence, you can just use the same quotes for your essay!)
then do the essays
when you break it up into small pieces it doesn't actually seem like much and you'll feel like you're being more productive! c:
how long are the essays? If they're all 3 pages or less you should be fine!

Today I'm probably going to work on the essays and then start the activities for the second book |

BUT MY ENGLISH TEACHER GUILT TRIPS ME like my philosophy in literally every class right now is "oh well as long as I pass" but my english teacher makes it seem like I'm some prodigy english student which I am 100% NOT, and he constantly makes me feel like I have to exceed my academic capacity
like okay
I don't try very hard in english and I typically do well anyways, and with my old english teacher things were pretty smooth sailing, and I'd get an 98% in the class and my teacher would joke like "wow you're slacking" and I'd laugh and hahahaha
but with my new teacher, he seems genuinely disappointed when I don't get perfect scores on everything and at this point yeah I could just circle random answers and get like a sixty and I'd still retain a really high A in the class but then I'd feel like I was disappointing him somehow??

screw that
live for yourself not others
i hated myself in high schools because i hated all the standards that i had to live up to
now that the only person i'm worried about disappointing is myself, I'm so much happier.
Before my grades were all about doing well for my mother, but now I'm doing well for myself and rather than seeing bad grades as failures and good grades as normal, I see bad grades as lessons and good grades as victories.
you gotta do what YOU want to do, not what others expect of you
if you don't want to do all this work second term senior year, don't do it!!
just do enough work so that you pass, and do your best in college
at this point high school is just filler space
