Just finished reading Asylum Novellas. It took me 3 months before to finish a 300 and above pages of a book but now, it was 3 days only. Yea 2 nights and 1 day. I can't believe hahaha. Btw, on the next month I'm planning to buy Asylum. I thought this was already the Asylum. . . . #bookstagram #bookphoto #bookish #bookaholics #booklovers #bookishfeatures #bookaddiction #bookblogger #booknerds #bookclub #bookishlove #bookphotography #thereaderslounge #readersgonnaread #readingtime #readersofinstagram #reading #asylumnovellas #madelaineroux https://www.instagram.com/p/BnxiYxSFI21/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tiqymrthjoln

DEAR FUTURE STUDENT

Dear future student,

It’s weird to know that school is about to start in a few weeks, isn’t it? I’d like to share some of my own insights to help you have an enjoyable, balanced, and productive year.

Take care of yourself

Everything seems like it is the end of the world - whether it is not succeeding your goal on getting an 80% on a biology test, being so close to the SAT cutoffs, or just feeling tired out, I can assure you that there is so much more to life than just one thing. Don’t give up - there are always alternative pathways to achieve a goal.

Don’t wait to learn - it starts now

Be curious and research the psychology concept that you have always wanted to learn, the requirements of admission to your dream university, or map out what it takes to fulfill your goals. The internet is right at your fingertips and it’s up to you to take advantage of this resource! If it helps - find someone that inspires you and research their story.

Be open to new ideas

Be patient, be understanding, and be accepting of an unanticipated event. It happens! It’s all about the mindset. (Thanks, Dr. Carol Dweck!)

You don’t need to be best friends with your roommate.

Friendships seem to come naturally.

Know Yourself

Don’t rush things like studying, when you know that it did not work in the past. Intuition never really fails me, but at the same time, I try to be a cautious risk taker. 

Please feel free to reblog and comment - I’d love to hear your thoughts on this!

Best wishes,

Monica Taing

P.S. We are sometimes too caught up in something to realize even the most obvious things, which is why I took time in the summer to reflect & share a post dedicated to the future student.

Solitude is what I need to calm my nerves from stressful beings. Sometimes, I have to turn my tears into words.
