Last Revisions Before The Day Of The Exam...

⭐ 17.06.2024 // I DID IT!! I DID IT GUYS!!! I STUDIED 10 HOURSSSSS!!!!

I'm tired but especially extremely motivated by the fact that I was able to achieve that much. Like, a few years ago I would never have thought that it would be possible for me to do it EVER. It says so much about my recovery journey and it's awesome. Like I'm able for the first time in YEARS to manage studying a lot of hours, doing a minimum of self care, answering people's texts, planning events for later AND be able to function like a human (so not be overly tired by it). It means a lot for me. I still have progress to make in some domains tho, who doesn't, but it's still amazing

(And honestly Tumblr has something to do with it, I met amazing mutuals here and maybe the "do it scared, do it bad, do it tired" helped me in my journey after all ahah)

PS : my cat didn't want to sleep in my room today so I don't have any pictures of her yet :(( (but she killed a mouse today, ig she had other priorities)

Exam season is officially over for me!

I started studying during the year, trying to stay afloat (towards the end it was a bit too much too soon for me), and when exam season started i tried to be kind to myself.

I never gave up reading fantasy books, watching sports, going out with friends; if i got home late at night, tired after a day of studying out, i just went to bed, even though i could've forced some more studying.

It felt like i could've pushed more, spent more time going over the courses, but it was enough - i prioritized myself, avoided burnout, made studying more enjoyable and it all paid off.

This is me temporarily signing off

- a student who passed all of her exams with flying colors

You can do this too.

Little things can make a big difference

For me it's about color schemes

I generally enjoy studying but oh boy do i love doing it when i can annotate a book with a pretty color scheme.

Makes me want to look for deeper meaning into the text, to draw diagrams and make small summaries.

Today's goal is finding small reasons for happiness in everything and anything

A nap can do wonders for productivity!

Woke up early to study, but I was soo unproductive. Took a nap, ate lunch, and one green tea later, I am so much more focused. Hoping to finish a big chapter today <3

3/100 days of productivity

💕 14.06.2024 // I studied a bit less today but I only had 6h of sleep so I think I can stop earlier and go to bed to rest a bit ahah

Tomorrow I want to study a lot more than today, and I hope I will be able to hit 9/10 hours of studying!!

Remember what life is all about

I was so concerned with my final year of college, finals, entry exams, that it felt like i was going through life head bowed, just walking on autopilot and staring only at the ground

I need to remember to enjoy life more often

The exams will be there, the time will pass anyway

So i choose to spend my free time remembering that there's life outside of university and the oh-so-important future

Smell the flowers, sit in the sun, go for a walk in the rain, watch children play, dance in your room, feed some ducks or squirrels (do some research about what is ok to feed them beforehand though)

Remember what life is really about

And so, the simplest things bring me the most joy
