Hey!! Welcome to my VCE Journey...
I know I’m super late to the whole “VCE journal” thing, but here we are. Honestly, I’m procrastinating hardcore right now and avoiding any real study, so I thought starting this journal might help me feel a bit better about not being productive hahaha. It’ll probably turn into a series of rants about school, but hey, at least it’s something, lmaooo. Reading other people’s VCE journeys has been really interesting and fun, so I figured, why not write my own? Hopefully, by the time I graduate, I’ll look back and laugh… or cry… or maybe both.
Right now, I’m studying English, Psychology, Health and Human Development (HHD), and Maths. I also did a subject last year.
Term 1 went pretty solid — my marks were decent, and I felt somewhat proud of myself. But Term 2? Yeah, things started slipping. My marks dropped, and even though my ranks didn’t drop dramatically, it was enough to be disappointed in myself. But what’s done is done, so now it’s all about learning from it and doing better going forward.
Surprisingly though, I ended Term 2 with two semester awards — one for Psychology and one for English. That genuinely shocked me because I’ve barely ever received awards before, so getting two at once felt unreal. What made it even weirder was that my English teacher — who I really dislike, by the way — was the one who gave me the certificate. For Psychology, I was convinced I’d done terribly, so getting that award threw me off. I actually thought I’d get one for HHD instead, but my teacher “forgot” to hand one out 😭
Right now, it’s term break. I’ve barely touched schoolwork, but I’m trying to be gentle with myself. I know I can’t just snap into full productivity mode overnight. I’m easing into it. Progress is progress, even if it’s slow.
So yeah, that’s where I’m at. This journal might be chaotic, scattered, and mostly written while avoiding studying hahahaha. Hopefully, I keep updating it.
