how to feel good about yourself when school is kicking your ass.

School’s tough, and when you’re getting hours of study and homework dumped on you every class, it’s easy to feel swamped, and it’s even worse when you feel like you’re not making progress anywhere else either. These things have seriously helped me with my mental and physical well-being, hopefully they can help you too!

1. Get the Forest App.  It’s $3 on the app-store, and trust me its $3 well spent. i use this app pretty much whenever I shouldn’t be using my phone. in class, studying, working out, not only does it make sure i stay off my phone, it feels really good to look back on all the time I’ve spent focused throughout the week. 

2. If you’re gonna waste time, do it properly.  Limit the time you spend scrolling social media to 10 minutes. I can’t count how many times I’ve been on Instagram explore page and suddenly an hour has gone past. This makes you feel crap. If you’re gonna waste time, do it in a way that can be measured. watch a tv show, ted talk, or youtube. make a social media post. It’ll make you feel like you’re spending your time doing something and that’s good in it’s own way.

3. Clean your room.  Feeling ridiculously overwhelmed? Clean your room. I don’t care how much work you need to do, or how soon it’s due. If you’re stressed you wont get anything worthwhile done. So clean your room, make your bed, vacuum the floor. It’ll calm you down and make you feel better about yourself. I promise.

4. Leave the junk food to the weekends. I know, everybody says it. But if you’re eating crap 24/7, it’s going to drag you down. I hate the idea of diets, they’re designed for failure and then you feel even worse, but trying to avoid junk from monday to friday helps a lot with your general perception of yourself. 

5. Work out. Another cliche! But they’re cliche’s because they work. I don’t care how often you work out or how much you do, just make sure you do it regularly and do enough to feel tired but good about yourself after woulds. it makes a difference. trust me.

6. Do a skin care routine & use face masks If you dont have a skin care routine, you need one. Not a fancy one by any means (some of us are uni students, I know) just a cetaphill cleanser and moisturiser day and night (with any creams / other products you may use) does the trick. It helps maintain routine and feel refreshed. Facemasks will help you feel like a self care goddess, even if they’re $2.

7. Burn candles & paint your nails Get a few cheap candels (just make sure they wont give you a headache) and burn them whilst you listen to music and paint your nails, its incredibly relaxing and makes you feel like you’re really taking care of yourself.

8. Have a hobby Last one! Learn something completely outside of school. Cooking, art, writing, photography, even if you suck, find something you enjoy and do it, you need a break from everything around you. 

These things have honestly helped turn my esteem and habits around these past years, it wont happen over night but just remembering to do these things every now and then will help you feel better, I promise. 

I just want to say that this is why minority representation in the media matters. Mae Jemison was inspired to become an astronaut after watching Nichelle Nichols as Uhura on Star Trek.

Online class tips for those who hate online classes:

Get blue light blocking glasses if you can. Or sunglasses. They will help eye strain and headaches

Actually listen to lectures and pay attention

Try doing classes when you normally would in person

Textbooks! They are great to help

Take notes during lectures. Treat online lectures like an actual in person class.

Don't sit in bed all day. Be active. It helps you focus when you actually sit down for class.

Listen to the lectures outside if you can!

Start a drinking game with your friends in the class

Get your pets involved!

For people like me who are super anxious and hate talking in class, this is a perfect opportunity to participate and ask question without being in the spotlight

Get cute stationary. You aren't spending on gas and eating out so invest in some cute stationary!

Reach out to your virtual communities for help and interaction, like studyblr

Reward yourself!

Schedule time to sit and focus on school work

Dress up! Be dramatic!

Don't want to sit still? Desk excercises!

Mentors and people in the field!! Find them and email them!

Make bets with yourself

Make your notes into art and hang them around

Have nerdy conversations with the people lucky enough to be stuck with you

Write notes in a foreign language you want to learn

Clean your room so it's suitable for education

Learn that you can cus out your teachers now and they can't hear you

Educational podcasts

See if you can download lectures as mp.3 files so you can listen instead of staring at a screen

It's ok to cry during class

Sit somewhere with a wall that you can blank out at when your eyes get tired

Stretch breaks

Playlists for classes to play when doing work

Naps are valid

Cold, damp rags work wonders for hurting eyes and headaches. Lay back, close your eyes, put the rag over your eyes, and maybe nap

Burn some incense to add liveliness to a boring class

Everyone will love if you send pictures of your pets

Keep snacks and water nearby you during class to avoid getting up and leaving

Print out materials if you can

Get ahead when you can. Do things early. I have a friend who has already finished her classes a month early

CALENDARS

Study break where you don't use electronics or read

Make sure you charge everything over night

Treat it like actual class

Tests are probably open book so organize those notes!!!

Don't want to do work? Just do 10 minutes of it

Fofa

Bem pensado.

in the past, i had to prepare for several exams by self-studying for long hours at home, so over the years i’ve learned the best ways to adapt to this situation, which i now present in this little infographic. i hope it can ease some of the pressure! 💜
