inspired by misjel's thread about dropping grades

i need some help with motivation. the subject this semester sucks. we dont have live lectures, we have pre-recorded videos about politics, where the teacher reads up from their script. and i cant learn that way. so all i have to do, is read my book.... and it sucks. i hate politics, and i have no motivation to do it.

the little i have as motivation, is that we have group discussions every other day, to discuss stuff we learned the day before. and i know people depend on the othrs reading the required stuff to know what to talk about. so i know i have to do it. but its so f'ing boring. and im at home, so i have like a billion distractions.

what do u do to not get distracted? how do u cope with a boring subject?

idk. cant think of anything. im not a politics person. never cared for it. its too much stuff going on with different names. i can probably connect some stuff to psychology or social studies, but not the basic stuff like how the states of norway is build up, and how "kommuner" works n stuff.

I have tried the pomodoro effect which works sometimes, but I do 40 x 10 minutes instead of 25 x 5 because 5 minutes isn't enough for me to really take a break. i use the timer on my phone to do that. but it doesn't work everytime.

yes i have the "Focus Keeper" tomato app. it works sometimes, but its jsut hard to stick to it when i have my pc. i cant write by hand, its way too much to write down.

its gonna be digital for a while tho, but its nice to have someone who is actively a student who can  help with tips and stuff. its not gonna be the same tho, cus this year they remade the whole study with new classes and stuff. so they cant give us like tips on how this year will be, since this class is new compared to what they did.
but still.. when all this covid-shit goes down a little more, we can meet up at school.
