Hello stressed students!
I know you're stressed because I am for SURE stressed too. It's been a long school year, but summer is slowly arriving. It's almost time for the beach. It's almost time for shorts and tank tops. It's almost time to forget about school work (for most of us) and finally get the relaxation we deserve.
But, these last few weeks are crucial. here are three reminders for everyone who is going through it.
1. Stay Charged.
I know the anticipation of summer is killing you, and trust me, me too, but we can't let that get to us. Although summer is close, finals are even closer, and that is what we have to focus on right now. Study hard. Grind. Make those note cards. Your trips and summer vacation will come soon enough, just take this time to remember what's important for right now.
2. Go To Class.
Towards the last few weeks of school, we start to get lazy. We start to show up less and less to classes, but we are all paying for these classes. Although sometimes it doesn't seem like it's worth going, you should go to at least see what you may learn that class. For me, I am one who wakes up in the morning and checks the syllabus to see if I NEED to go to class, so this one is hard for me. But, I realized I probably shouldn't do that. So me reminding you is reminding me.
3. Take Care of Yourself.
In the midst of finals and speeches and exams, we sometimes forget to take care of ourselves. As much as school is important, so is your mental health and well-being. Drink lots of water. Sleep as much as you can. I get it, we got to spend some long nights studying, but don't forget to make the effort to take care of yourself too. Hangout with friends. Go to the gym. Enjoy life outside of school too. We all need a break.
I wish everyone good luck on their upcoming presentations, exams, and finals. Go kill it!!
