Staying motivated and studying hard.

“Don’t rub your eyes it leads to wrinkles and eye bags!!” you live in a world where you feel guilt over even the most microscopic of life’s pleasures and I will never want to join you there

The problem with the piracy discourse is everyone thinks earning money is something that happens to the deserving after hardwork instead of a global tragedy that alienates us from our culture and artists from their work.

If you're thinking of money in terms of who "deserves" what you've already lost.

Loving you uni

I feel like not enough focus is put on loving your university. I used to study pharmacy and I hated it with all my heart. I hated the classes, the professors, the people (I made some good friends but in general I didn't like the atmosphere), exams and even the building. I felt sick with the thought of going there and it was incredibly hard to make myself do any of the work. But I thought that that was what it meant to study at a difficult uni, I thought that that was what college is and I just had to suffer through a couple of years and someday it will be worth it. And you hear that often, especially with "more practical" majors. A lot of people, including me at the time, are there to make their family proud, to someday make a lot of money or get a job easily and not because they actually enjoy it. But if you do feel like this, it's probably a good sign that you should study something else. There is this prejudice in "giving up" and doing something you actually enjoy because we value people that make it through hard times. There is often this stigma in quitting and people think "you weren't tough enough to handle it" or were lazy or not smart or hardworking enough. But if you really hate every part of your uni experience, that is not normal, you made a wrong choice. Uni isn't supposed to make you feel awful and unhappy. Sure, there will always be those weeks where you are really struggling and hate everything but deep down you should still feel happy that you are where you are. I didn't even know how much I could love my uni. I love the professors, the library, the general atmosphere, the people, the classes. Sure, I get annoyed, but deep down I still love it. Im happy to be here. Im happy and proud to say I go there and look forward to experience all that this uni has in store for me.

So I guess if there is a takeaway from all of this is that, if you are truly deeply unhappy with your uni, it is okay to quit and do something else. College isn't meant to feel like that. You are not weak, or lazy or a quitter, you just made a wrong choice

How to deal with the new normal

Accept your new routine - the measures that were put in place are here for our own good and anger won't bring back our old lives, it will only make us less happy

Catch up on news two times a day - although it is important to be informed, it is very important to not get overwhelmed and panicked

Take advantige of opportunites you have - take online courses in something you have always been interested in (coursera has a ton of free courses), learn a new skill or brush up on an old one, workout, read books you haven't had a chance to

Relax - although a lot of still have a lot of obigations regarding work and school, we still have more free time than we would otherwise and there is apsolutely nothing wrong with doing nothing with it

Connect with family - a lot of us are back home or surrounded by our loved ones more than we would be otherwise, talk, have movie nights, game nights, cook together...

Connect with yourself - spend some time everyday on your own, without any distactions, meditate, journal, write down your feelings, thoughts and wishes

Find a new purpose - for a lot us our day's, week's or life's purpose was going to school or work and we can feel lost without that. That's why it can be beneficial to find a project to put more energy in and that's going to get you out of bed in the morning like running a blog, writing a novel, getting in shape..

Be grateful - you are still here, you are alive and breathing. Make sure to think of at list 3 things you are grateful for every day

Quarantine study tip #1

Try studying with your friends through zoom or skype. You can turn off the microphone and just have video on. This way you are more accountable and less likely to go on your phone or give up

Happy studying
