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 donât 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 youâre terrible at it
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 youâre into that)
Paint your nails, shave, moisturize, wash your face and pamper yourself
