I'm writing this late at night; currently, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, my IGCSE's (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) are in one month, and I've got the Olympiad Elimination Chess Tournament in the same time , frighteningly close to my exams. I want to succeed In both, the exams and Qualifying for the team, it will be a huge mountain to climb If I want to do well in both of them, and I'm not sure If I can make it. I started revising to some degree three days ago, mostly doing mathematics, and have made some headway in other subjects already, but I'm still nervous. I guess its normal, having conflicts with studies, but I can't afford to do bad in my IGCSE's, whilst the Olympiad... I'll always have a chance every two years, and two years from now I'll be busy applying for colleges... Oh, life... But I'll try my best, as Gloria Gaynor said: "I will Survive!" Conclusive with this blog post I'll be revising for the exams rigorously, and devoting a small amount of time to Chess. I'll be updating this blog continuously for the next month up until the exams, this is to give any possible readers an insight into a person with conflicting interests and for my own personal motivation.
As they say, when life gives you lemons, Qualify for the Olympiad and do well in your IGCSE's :)
