types of study breaks for every situation

if you realize you’ve been studying for hours: grab a snack to refuel your body and watch a sitcom to refuel your brain. then back to the books.

if you’re feeling stressed out: take some deep breaths, text your friends, maybe stare at a wall for a few minutes. gather yourself.

if you can’t seem to focus: get moving and get outside. take out the garbage, check your mail box, maybe walk your dog. just get moving and get fresh air. it’ll help bring you back.

if there’s something else going on in your life and you can’t get it off your mind: write down what’s going through your head, sort of like a diary entry. it’ll help you work things out.

if you’re just mentally and physically exhausted: set a timer for 25-30 minutes and take a nap. any longer and you’ll hit REM and you’ll wake up feeling just as tired. once you wake up, get some caffeine in you.

if the material is boring as hell: find another way to study. see if there’s a crash course video online about it or draw out what you’re trying to learn in diagrams and pictures to make it fun.

if people around you won’t shut up: listen to some music. soundtrack and classical music is always good because they won’t absorb you as much as music with lyrics. white noise (like ocean waves, rain sounds, etc.) also works.

if you only half understand a concept: call/message a friend who’s not in the class and try to teach the material to them. this will help you mentally work through the material and will help you remember it as well.

MY CHILD // I’ve got like four notebooks rubber banded together with these rainbow bands and it’s slowly growing into a monster (I usually just tape more pages in when I’m finished all the pages and not done with the notebook but it’s cleaner to just add another notebook to it?)

24.10.17 // 9/100 Days of productivity - I spend a bad time last days cause I did really bad on the midterm I had last Friday and it really depressed me, so I haven’t been productive in the last few days because of that, but I have to keep going so yesterday I went to the library and got on track again!

Btw we recently reached 17k and we’re are doing a giveaway soon to thank you all, so stay tuned!

“Whenever I am feeling low, I look around me, and I know, there’s a place that will stay within me, w h e r e v e r I may choose to go.” Happy national day to my fellow sg-eans!!! What’s your favourite ndp song? 

That song will always be a classic for me. Hope everyone had a great day!
