Getting ready for the mocks

So, I firmly believe getting ready for mocks starts at your environment and your mindset. I’m not gonna lie, I struggle to get the right level for both so this year I am going to start with my study environment.

Today, I have started to tidy my room. At this point, this is not only going to help with my mocks but is also gonna help with the start of the new year (I know it’s the 6th but it’s still the first week).

My checklist:

-Put all of the stuff on my desk on my bed: I do this because it means that I can’t get into bed until I have tidied stuff away Repeat with: -The problem corner by my wardrobe -The chest which has been dumped in my room by my mum -And the rest of the floor -I light incense and candles to try and make this as relaxing as possible -Open a window -Keep a drink near by and some healthy snacks (I am a sucker for binge eating so I’ve replaced a lot of my chocolate for dried fruit and nuts so at least I’m eating something good for me) -Put on a film or music in the background so there’s no deathly silence -Dust and clean glass

A tidier room helps me concentrate and doesn’t make me feel as claustrophobic when I’m studying so that I am able to study for longer!

03/01/18 // Happy New Year I guess

Second day back to college so here goes. Yesterday was exhausting but luckily I don’t need to be in until 12:10 today so before I go and hit my head against the wall (which is now a metaphor for doing my EPQ) I think I will lay bare what I’m planning on doing with my life this year.

I will finish the French course on Duolingo and move onto the Dutch course so I can surprise one of my friends (unfortunately, she speaks Flemmish but Dutch is the closest I’m gonna get).

I am also going to be treating my body like a temple. Yes, that’s right, a temple, and I shall adorn it with tattoos and piercings and take care of it like I’m supposed to.

But yeah, I hope this year I am actually going to take care of myself in order to prevent the weekly mental breakdowns. If anyone has any tips, it would be helpful.

Remember when that cop pepper-sprayed students in 2011? UC Davis paid $175K to scrub it from the internet’s memory https://t.co/5prbgrx1WL

Nice try fuckers.

$175K wasted with every reblog.

Please reblog or like this post if you are an active studyblr! I’m new to the community and would love to follow and get to know you all!!

Thanks, lovelies xx

Hello again

Hey, I know it’s been a fair few months since I last updated but UCAS plus EPQ plus history coursework has meant my Internet presence in general has disappeared.

So since the last time, I have completed my UCAS application and have applied to (in order of preference) Southampton, Bristol, Keele, Swansea, and Bath Spa. So far I have received two conditional offers from Swansea and Bath Spa which I am really proud about! Also, because I used Access to Bristol, I have a guaranteed offer from them so I am just waiting for the official offer now.

I have also decided to retake my Unit 2 in AS Government and Politics - for better or for worse I’m yet to know.

There’s a lot to do over this holiday: finishing my EPQ, making revision notes for everything for mocks in February as well as preventing myself from repeatedly hitting my head against a wall (jk.....it’ll likely be a table).

[tosavehumanitea-blog]

I haven’t updated in ages...

Anyway, so last month I signed up for a program at my local university which gives you access to university materials as well as allows you to experience seminars, lectures and study groups that would happen in university. It also gives you a bursary and a contextual (for example, BBB instead of AAB) offer if you chose to go to that university.

AND GUESS WHO HAS A SPACE ON THE HISTORICAL STUDIES COURSE? This lucky idiot, that’s who!

Help! #FuerzaMéxico

Hello there, I’m sorry to bother, I was wondering if I could ask you a huuge favor. You see, I’m mexican and I live in CDMX. In case you haven’t heard, there was an earthquake yesterday that has caused great damage to our city. About 38 buildings have fallen and around 30 have been evacuated, many people are injured or homeless, and sadly around 250 people have died. The city’s a mess, and although we have installed help centers and there’s tons of people helping and volunteers, it would we incredibly appreciated if you could help. Please please if you’re able to, help by donating to rescuing teams and organizations. Please spread the message here on Tumblr by posting this message or sending it to your friends/family in social networks. We need you! Thanks!

OH MY GOD whyyyy did no one tell me you’re supposed to send thank-yous after interviews?? Why would I do that???

“Thank you for this incredibly stressful 30 minutes that I have had to re-structure my entire day around and which will give me anxiety poos for the next 24 hours.”

I HATE ETIQUETTE IT’S THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE THING FOR ME TO LEARN WITHOUT SOMEONE DIRECTLY TELLING ME THIS SHIT

[a-windsor]

NO ONE TOLD YOU???? WTF! I HAVE FAILED YOU. Also: Dear ______: Thank you so much for the opportunity to sit down with you (&________) to discuss the [insert job position]. I am grateful to be considered for the position. I think I will be a great fit at [company name], especially given my experience in __________. [insert possible reference to something you talked about, something that excited you.] I look forward to hearing from you [and if you are feeling super confident: and working together in the future]. Sincerely, @mellivorinae

My brother got a really great paid internship one summer. The guy who hired him said the deciding factor was the professional thank you letter my brother sent after the interview.
