Bad Days - Blog Posts

Some days...

it's hard to stay strong....today is one of those days...

My exams are rapidly approaching (just 9 days left!!) and amongst all the study tips posts that are popping up, I wanted to do a post about those days when things don’t go as planned. Be it that you walk out of an exam and feel like you bombed it, or that you get back a disappointing score. We all know the feeling. So here are some things that I like to do to make the day suck a little less!

Have some chocolate (light/dark/milk, hot/cold/whatever as preferred)

Have a bath, or a long shower

Go for a walk or a jog, preferably surrounded by nature

Find someone/something to cuddle

Even if you have things to do, give yourself a break

Tidy your room/flat/whatever to get a fresh perspective

Open all windows and air out your room

If you have things that need to be done, make a to do list and sort your brain out

Organise your clutter/notes/room/whatever

Do come colouring in a colouring book (these are awesome)

Try your hand at painting, even if you’re terrible at it

Make yourself some tea

Bake something (and eat it without feeling guilty afterwards)

Light a nice-smelling candle

Spend time with the positive forces in your life, be it parents, friends or pets

Watch your favourite movie (preferably with someone who loves it as much as you)

Go on spotify, pandora, soundcloud, 8tracks or wherever and look for new music

If you find some really good music, have a dance party

Put on your favourite outfit (+ makeup look if you’re into that)

Paint your nails, shave, moisturize, wash your face and pamper yourself

Bad Days...

Sometimes we as people have the worst days. Days where we feel like we can’t do anything right. Days where there is no sunshine. When we have those days we feel as though it would be better if all that pain and emotion would just go away. Likely, we won’t find any remedy to the anguish we feel. Life; however, is not the evil we as humans have imagined it to be. When everything is going wrong and nothing feels right that is when life comes in and shows us exactly what we need to see. No matter what that would be life will always come in to show us the best there is for us. We just have to wait for the moment that the clouds move and the sun shines through.
