please make sure that wherever you’re at in life, you don’t treat it like a transitory period. don’t waste your college years wishing to already be graduated & have a job. don’t waste your single years wishing for someone to be in love with. if/when those things come, they will come in due time and they will be good. but there is nothing like looking back and feeling empty because you wasted literal years ignoring what you had because you were hoping for something better. while it’s important to better yourself and reach for your goals, don’t neglect the present because that’s where you are now and it’s your now that determines your future.

as a studyblr with high grades I feel the need to put it out there, I’ve never pulled an all-nighter. Yes I’ve stayed up late in an effort to get assessment done but never past 11:30pm. I can count on two hands the times I’ve sacrificed my sleep and long term health for school. As a studyblr with sleep apnea and anxiety, to me it is not worth pulling all-nighters. Instead use your time effectively. Start assignments straight away and aim to have them finished two days before the due date and just going over and editing until it’s due. The key to never having to sacrifice sleep is good planning and following through. Maybe it’s that you should stay at school for an extra hour or two to get work done, or maybe it’s that you need to wake up super early to work before school. Whatever it is, figure it out and carry through. Please don’t glorify bad sleeping habits, it hurts you more than you could know.

edit: I understand how not everybody can live this way and that sometimes mental/physical health leaves people unable to work during the day and have to sacrifice sleep in order to get stuff done. I have seen and experienced this and I know how hard it can be. My love and support is with you, you can get through this.
