I Probably Spend 99% Of My Life Here At The Moment. But Tomorrow I Will Submit My Bachelors Thesis And

The semester is almost over and now i have more time on my hands to read :”) which is great bcs i missed it, and its my favourite me time activity. How is everyone doing these days? <3

Let’s talk about study methods... These are some of them.

A mood

Learning languages is fun because I love being able to embarrass myself internationally

Really struggling this week but we have to remember to be kind to ourselves. If the only thing you achieved today was getting out of bed and taking a shower, i'm proud of you and you should be too.

Studying psychology is great and all but nobody prepares you for the existential dread after each class

hey if ur reading this and ur in a bad spot mentally or anything i hope u feel better soon and have a good day

how to avoid education burnout

have 3 achievable goals a day: having a laundry list of things to do everyday is super unrealistic, and you just end up feeling bad about yourself because you didn’t accomplish your goals for the day.

leave your sundays open: i love sundays because they’re my day to chill out and catch up on school work that i wasn’t able to finish during the week.

recognize when you’re at your emotional limits: forcing yourself to get work done when you are unable to comprehend your study material does not benefit anyone.

learn how to say no: people will ask you for your time and it will stretch you to the limit, whether it be at your job, in your extracurriculars, or in your personal life. know when to step back and say no.

take care of yourself physically: take breaks, go for walks, shower regularly, get enough sleep, eat healthy, see your friends

celebrate your accomplishments: go out to eat with friends after a big exam, indulge in a night off after a busy week with some netflix and wine

make a study plan beforehand: it can be daunting to see how much work you need to put in to a class or task beforehand, but this allows you to spread your work evenly so you don’t become overwhelmed.

learn how to ask for help: it is very rare that people make it through school, whether it be high school or university or any graduate program, without needing the advice of others or just a kind soul to vent to. find that person.

never forget your hobbies: you will need things that keep you sane. if you love to play music, write, play volleyball, or cook, make you sure you don’t lose these things. they will become your escape when times get tough.

log off from time to time: it is exhausting to be constantly connected to social media and your email. just physically disconnecting from these for a night to take care of yourself can really help you clear your mind.

Last semester I'd always forget(procrastinate until I forget) to take my quizes and remember it a few hours after it's due. Now I'm glad that I did not forget to take it this time today. Apart from that, 44 degrees and maths don't make a great combo, tested by me.
