April 23, 2020 – Day 25
1 PM – Slept late last night & woke up to the sound of blazing fire and the smell of smoke. There was a growing fire heading towards the village we live in. It’s quite far from our house, but today’s weather is hot and windy. Grasses are all over empty lots as well, so it contributes to spreading the fire to a much larger space. It went on for about 30-45 minutes before it was put out.
3 PM – I’m here at my parents’ room laying around. I still can’t feel the urge to review, but I tried. I was able to study a few topics from Intermolecular forces (small step but I consider it as a good starting point).
1 AM – I made a good progress tonight, YAY!! Done with intermolecular forces and almost finished with thermochemistry/thermodynamics. I just 2 lessons left for that chapter, and all I have to do is practice word problems so that I can apply the concepts learned. I was also able to take a short vocabulary builder.
Took a fun personality test (16 Personalities) during the afternoon, and this was the result:
Total study time: 4:01:24.19
