Being Sneaky With Revision

Yes we all know revision is an exhausting chore but there are times when it comes in handy right?

I am not talking about that illuminating moment in the exam hall when you suddenly remember that on a sunny Saturday afternoon, you revised the exact question that is now being asked of you but what I am talking about is when revision provides you with an escape from some of the even more boring tasks of life.

Number one, housework. Normally during the revision months, my mum tends to ask less of me in terms of chores as I of course claim that revision means I am unable to devote time to hoovering and cleaning. Also, tasks like sorting out all your clutter or old clothes can be simply annihilated with the excuse of revision. However, this is a dangerous game as it means if you are ever seen to merely be lolling about (or typing a blog post on your phone) then you will be singled out for interrogation.

“If you have revision to do, why are you on your phone? You said you can’t help but you can sure sit on your phone all day!”

So yes, you have to play this game intelligently and do not milk it too much. This means on those odd mornings, you should quickly nip around the house doing small things to maintain the idea that you are still helping out as much as you can. Which of course you are, right?

Secondly, revision can get you out of going to dull places. That distant cousin’s wedding, your father’s odd friend’s child’s birthday party or having to visit your mum’s aunt who has come back from a holiday who you really do love but oh the new episode of your favourite tv show airs tonight so yes, revision is definitely necessary this evening.

There are quite a few benefits to this move because you worm your way out of a boring few hours while your parents also get to proudly declare how you are working terribly hard for your upcomimg exams. Everybody’s a winner. Until your mum unfortunately sees your tweet screaming: Oh WOW Game Of Thrones was AWESOME last night! (which by the way, it wasn’t.)

So, next time revision is discussed in a conversation, simply think of the benefits it gives you and how after your exams, you will have no shield to protect you against pulling out the weeds in your front garden or cleaning your entire house.

Until Next Time,
