Why you don't start doing your tutorials or revise your integration.
let me present to you a theory explaining why you will not spontaneously do your tutorials and write your essays.
this theory is firmed rooted in thermodynamics (entropy) and chemical energetics, which are based on the irrefutable laws of physics.
2nd law of thermodynamics: "in an isolated system, a process can only occur if it increases the total entropy of the system." this means that in a spontaneous change, the degree of disorder must increase.
as time proceeds in your final year in jc, you find that things just keep stacking up. this is the natural increase in entropy. you see more disorder, or rather, an increasing number of things to attend to in your daily life.
but as more tutorials are thrown into your system, you feel a build up of pressure. this is your enthalpy.
chem students can tell instantly that a compound higher in energy is unstable and will react readily to form a more stable product.
if this is so, why dont you do your tutorials, since it'll lower your enthalpy, which is your stress level?
this is because of your activation energy of the reaction between you and your tutorial. refer to Fig 1.1.
Fig 1.1
when you handle a subject you dread, your activation energy is high, and therefore you will not spontaneously work on that tutorial, even though the enthalpy heat change (delta H) is -ve.
but when you do something that does not lower your enthalpy, such as playing everyone's favourite game DOTA, the activation energy is extremely low, and entropy also increases. hence is becomes a very spontaneous reaction.
to increase the rate of reaction by reducing activation energy, certain catalysts may be used. these are your math lecture tests, and, of course, your favourite math tutor that likes to f*ck colin up.
but beware. if everyone keeps doing his tutorials, enthalpy heat change is negative, so you'll release your energy into the universe. if this happens, eventually, the whole universe will be equivilant in terms of heat content (since there is a perpetual balancing out of heat between you and the universe) such that entropy of the whole universe is uniform. no more heat transfer will take place, and the HEAT DEATH WILL CLAIM OUR LIVES.

so next time your mom tells you to do your homework, tell her that you'll cause the death of the universe by doing so.
