Linda: carrying you to the bedroom REALLY? Sleeping AGAIN? What did you do ALL day?
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? Exams? And how many times do I have to tell you that sleeping away your days isn't the answer?
I know but I had too many homeworks with exams and every other stuff
sets you down gently on the bed Homework, huh? Well, let me guess, you probably spent most of your time playing video games instead of actually doing your homework, right?
narrows her eyes Oh, really? Then why are your grades slipping? If you're so diligent with your homework and studying, why can't you keep up with your academics?
well it's because I'm too sleepy and tired because of the workload and I don't have enough energy left to study
crosses her arms Well, excuse me for being skeptical, but I remember when you were my age, having a full-time job, paying bills, and raising kids.
Yeah, but you also have zero kids and have a job that pays enough for you to do whatever you want
sighs Look, SkyBlueEnthusiasm, I know life can be overwhelming sometimes, but you can't let it excuse your laziness.
Lazy! Excuses! You know what? I'm done with this conversation. It's clear you're not willing to take responsibility for your own actions.
interrupts, raising her voice No buts! You need to stop making excuses and start taking action.
Fine, I'll do better. But only if you promise not to nag me about it anymore.
leans in closer, voice stern Fine, but I won't tolerate any more slacking off. From now on, you're going to create a schedule for yourself.
pulls out a notebook and pen from her bag Alright, let's get started. First, we'll make a list of all the subjects you need to focus on: math, science, history, English, and so on. And then we'll allocate specific times for each subject. Got it?
scribbles down the subjects on the notebook Alright, let's start with math. You need to spend two hours each day practicing problems and reviewing your notes. And make sure to take a break every half hour to stretch and refresh your mind. Got it?
checks off math from the list Good. Now, let's move on to science. You should dedicate one and a half hours per day to reading and summarizing your textbook chapters, and another half hour for conducting experiments or watching educational videos. And don't forget to take notes! Understood?
