Are there any study apps that track my studying hours offline?

I currently have study bunny, but I do a lot of studying at college where the wifi is terrible. I don't want to burn through mobile data to set the timer going whilst im studying there, but I always forget to log my hours afterwards. I wanna track my study hours so I know where I need to adjust my revision schedule

I set my intentions for this cycle on Friday here is my journaling:)

I'm kinda new to witchcraft so I thought I'd try this layout for setting my intentions, because I believe that if I reflect on possible obstacles, I can be prepared and overcome them!

Also I've just started college last week and making friends is a biggie for me, so it's my biggest intention this month

How easy is it to make good friends in 6th form?

I'm not 100% sure if this is the right sub for this question, but I came here cause I'm going into y12 on Wednesday. Also sorry if this is a lot of me stressing about seemingly small things, I'd just appreciate some advice or encouragement.

I know a couple of people who are going to my 6th form, one of them is one of my closer friends, (J), but he already has friends at the 6th form and I don't wanna be tagging along with them for ages. I really want to make better friends than the ones I have now (this summer has shown me how many people actually care about me, which is about 3 people.), but I'm really worried that I'm going to end up alone, or with friends who are only friends with me on a surface level and I'm mostly left out (I hope you know what I mean).

I am friendly with the majority of people that I meet, but I feel like I'm never properly friends with people, as I often miss jokes, or don't understand things that people are saying, or I don't watch the same shows/listen to the same music, so I can't really relate to them. I don't know if it is so hard to fit in is because I'm autistic, or people just don't wanna be friends with me. Basically, what I'm trying to ask is: How do I make friends? Stupid question, I know, but I'm seriously worried I'll end up with fake friends or toxic friends or friends who don't care unless I have something to offer them. I've had all of the types of friends mentioned and I really struggle to trust that people truly like me and want me around.

Again, my apologies if this is in the wrong sub, or I just went on a rant or if none of it is relevant/made sense. Any sort of advice would be appreciated, even if it seems obvious :)

Resultssssssssss

English lit: 8

English lang: 8

Maths: 6

Combined science: 87

Geography: 9

History: 7

M*sic: 3

Overall I'm SUPER happy, I mean, when I saw my results I was BEAMING. I worked so damn hard for those grades and my hard work paid off, nd I'm super glad. I'm getting history remarked because I was 1 or 2 marks from an 8, and the school pays for it so why not? 🤷

Anyways now I guess I have Alevels to prep for :D I need to go buy pens n stuff cuz I have none 😭😭

Is there anything simple I can do to help reduce my anxiety/make my energy positive for collecting my exam results tomorrow?

I'm pretty new to witchcraft, so I apologise if my question is stupid or whatever. I'm researching things I can do to reduce my anxiety and attract positive energy for tomorrow, bc my exam results are really important and I'm really anxious, however I'd appreciate advice from people!

Again, I apologise if this is an FAQ or a stupid question, I'm just really unsure what to do and scared I'll do it wrong or something

Is photography a good option along with bio and geo?

I put the flair as results day because this really depends on results day. I need a grade 6 in maths to do chemistry at A level, but I've struggled to get there during mocks, and the last set we did I got a 4 (largely due to reasons other than my revision and actual understanding of maths though), so I'm worried that I won't get that 6 that I need and I need to make sure I have a backup option for enrolment day should I need to switch my chem out

I've been trying to figure out what other a level I would pick as a backup, and I originally said business, but I genuinely don't think I'll enjoy it all that much. I could do English lit because I do enjoy it and my grade will probably be 6 or over, but I have issues with timings in exams even with extra time and a laptop, and I'm just not sure it would be any use if I want to do something based around conservation, science, the environment, that sorta stuff at uni.

The 6th form I go to offer photography, and whilst a creative subject isn't my first choice, I do like the idea of it, and originally debated choosing it as my 3rd A level before I switched to chem, as I felt that photography would be good if I decided I wanted to be a wildlife photographer or conservationist.

I don't really like any of the other subjects the 6th form offers, and they don't offer English language or history, which would've been my backups.

I was wondering if anyone else had an opinion? I tried to give as much info as I could so y'all had the info to form an opinion, hence why this is so long. Advice/opinions would be highly appreciated, thankyou!!

Do you ever wonder if people from your old schools remember who you are like you remember who they are?

I've moved schools loads, and I still remember loads of the people from those schools, even primary schools. Sometimes I wonder if any of them ever remember me if they have memories from when I was at the same school as them.

A weird question, I know, but I wanna know if anyone else also randomly questions this or if I'm alone on this 😭

Craziest GCSE/school related dreams u have had?

I dreamt I slept through results day completely (I slept from the 19th until the 21st) and nobody told me, then when I woke up I panicked.

I also dreamt that I was sat in my history exam and halfway through I realised I'd accidentally brought my history teacher in with me in my blazer pocket 😭😭

I remember someone on this sub they had a dream where an onion told them their results 💀 Whoever that was I summon you

Prom outfitt :)

The makeup was also really good but I'm not showing my face 😭

Prom was pretty fun, it wasn't as amazing as it was hyped up to be, but I enjoyed getting to see all my friends and teachers again. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a photo with my english teacher or one of my maths teachers, but I got one wi my geog teacher :D

They acc served alright food, they ordered in Dominoes because the venue wasn't anything super posh like a wedding venue.

Yes I'm posting at half past midnight. No I cannot sleep, I'm too hyped up and I'm warm asf 😭

I have now created the GCSE Crime Solving Paper!

The highly requested GCSE-style Crime Solving Paper is now finished!

You are going to take on the role of a detective, solving crimes using evidence, reasoning, and investigation skills.

The paper is worth 60 marks and includes murder cases, burglaries, eyewitness testimonies, forensic evidence, psychology, and multiple-choice questions. It finishes with a “Create Your Own Investigation” question.

Grade boundaries:

9 = 52
8 = 48
7 = 43
6 = 39
5 = 33
4 = 27
3 = 20
2 = 14
1 = 9

It’s designed to be fun (at least I hope) whilst still feeling like a GCSE paper.

I will post the mark scheme shortly to give people a chance to complete the paper first.

Let me know what you think of it, and comment down below what score and grade you got.

If you would like the link to the paper, say so in the comments and I’ll send it to you.

Here's what 2 years of GCSE stuff looks like for me

Science, maths, and (ironically) geography were the biggest causes of deforestation, contributing to the 22 inch high pile of every sheet, booklet, book ever used at GCSE.

All of this will be recycled :) ♻️🌍💚

We're finally done, but it doesn't feel like we are

It was my final exam and leavers day, and we did all the shirt signing, photos, hugs etc. I've thrown out my school uniform, but I genuinely don't feel like it's the end already. I'm convinced that I'll be going back tomorrow and going back to my normal lessons, and that I'll be going into the humanities block at break to give my geography teacher her regular life update and it's really weird, because I know I've finished, but I don't feel like I've finished.

I'm probably just gonna realise on a random day in July and spend the whole day crying or something
