Exam Tension?

-
Hello readers,

I have my exams going on right now and as a matter of fact, I know that this is my moment of truth. To prove others and myself that I have improved. I know one thing for sure, I understand better in class. Trust me, that is very important. I mean you can always mug things up, so did I till probably last year or so. What's the point though, cause, today when you ask me about it, I remember none of it. However, I do remember things that I tried to understand last year. To be honest, during the exam you might just panic and forget everything you memorized, but once you understand it, you will be able to come up with content on spot. Which one sounds better to you? I for one prefer the second option. 

I know its very hard to focus on studies but when you put all distractions aside it really helps. Just leave aside your phone and TV time. Study for at least 2 hours and you will be good to go if you understand and pay complete attention. Then again, I get it, some people have problems doing this. I never found it easy myself, until now. 

That is why I do have a few tips:
  1. First set a goal of which subject you want to finish and which topic. This will help you feel like you don't have loads of work to do.
  2. Prepare your mindset, tell yourself that you are going to be studying for this long with zero distractions. By doing this you will feel more prepared.
  3. If you are tired soon give yourself a 5 minutes break and get back to work. Try not to take your phone though, cause you will definitely lose yourself in it. Just close your eyes or go for a short stroll.
  4. Reward yourself. Tell yourself that if you finish the goal then you will definitely have a small treat or get to do your favorite thing. This will motivate you and make you wanna get it done.
  5. Keep some drink on your table like green tea, water or juice. It will keep you hydrated and fresh. 
  6. Sometimes waking up in the morning and studying can help you remember better. I mean it depends, some people prefer staying up and studying. However, get a minimum of 7 hours of sleep, your mind needs rest.
  7. Explain what you have learned to yourself or someone else. You will have a clear understanding and remember better.
Do you guys have troubles focusing or learning? Hope this helps you, cause they definitely helped me. I would love to know if any of you used these tips.

Regret But Realise

Hello Readers, I've had  a lot of people come up to me and say that they've done a few things that they regret, a lot, and wish they could take it all back. Why I'm writing something about it? Well, I thought some people could read this and maybe it will help them. We say stuff that we don't mean sometimes and we do things that we shouldn't have. Does that make us bad people though? I don't think so, I mean imagine yourself never doing something wrong, something you now regret. You probably wouldn't have known the right thing if you wouldn't have made that mistake. NO ONE, is that perfect. It's probably something completely wrong you've done, but do you realise it was a mistake? If yes, be happy that you're strong enough to accept it. Do you feel guilty? Yeah, then well maybe you should just not repeat it. If you know that you won't repeat it, then stop blaming yourself for it, especially if it was non-intentional. If you don't f...

Hello readers, School has been going better than I expected, I am happy I am able to pay attention in classes and I have great friends. Have you had a proper, genuine talk with one of your favourite teachers? Well I have just a day or two back. I shared my feelings with her and I told her a few things about myself. Her answer was that I don't have to try and find who I am, the way I react in situations is what makes up my personality and that's exactly who I am. I've been thinking of it lately and she's right. I was having inner conflicts cause I wasn't happy with myself I was trying too hard "finding myself" rather than accepting myself. Yes I've always tried living up to peoples expectations and that isn't exactly fun or easy to handle because once you change even a bit, they go against you. They say you've changed. That's not even the worst part of it though, cause to be honest the worst part would be knowing that its true. Then it...

Communication is the key

Hello readers, I'm back, and I hope that this post is better than the previous one. For me, today was honestly one of those days where you don't wanna study or work. How I wish that everyone could just relax at home, watch TV and play. I'm sure a lot of you want that, and that is obviously not surprising. Anyways, I'm just happy that even after sitting around the whole day, I managed to do my work. One thing I realize is that no matter how much you fight with your sibling, you still love each other the same. I mean I fought with my brother, but I do not regret it. I just told him what I felt and I think that was the right thing to do. After all, would he have known how I felt if I never told him? I guess ignorance isn't always bliss now, is it? However, I know that deep down somewhere he loves me a lot. It isn't his fault he can't show it. That's just how some people are. Don't feel bad about it, instead, if you love them just trust them and r...
