Exams

Hello Readers,

It's been a while since I've posted on Wattpad, and by the tittle, you can probably guess that it is because of exams. Every student in the UK who is in colleges are all doing exams, and well, everyone else is too.

With exams, comes a lot of revision, with revision comes a lot of sleepless nights, stress and cramming. I have been doing a series of all nighters, even before my exams, which is a total sacrifices because I truly love to sleep whenever I can.

One thing I tend to do a lot during this time - exam season - I eat, a lot. I think it's like stress eating, but I've been eating so much sweet things which in a way has helped me stay up...but that burns money.

Enough about me, I've come to give you tips, that you've probably heard way too many times, but in case you haven't, here you go:

- There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

It's only for a couple weeks, it will end and it's all just a small fraction of your long life. Remind yourself of that.

- Organisation and time management is key.

Old school, but very true. If you're like me and you like to go on Tumblr, watch supernatural and made in Chelsea, then you're going to have to prioritise. What's important comes first and you want to be able to go to bed satisfied about what you've revised, meaning you need to have given as much time as possible.

- It's not everyday stress.

I get it, some of us want amazing grades, and we have to work are butts off. But putting too much pressure on yourself really won't help, in fact it'll make everything worse. So once in a while make yourself a cup of tea, and catch up with Game of Thrones. Or any other show. But remember, there is a limit.

- Dont compare yourself and Work for what you want.

People do things differently than you do, and I'm sure you know that. Don't compare your beginning to someone's middle. Everybody runs a different race in life. Comparing yourself only brings you downs, and slows down your performance academically, and emotionally I guess. You have to know what you want- not anybody else- and work for it. At the end of the day, it's all for you only.

I would say more, but I'm really tired, and I really want to get some sleep. I have one more exam, and I just can't wait to get it done and over with. I literally wrote this is less than 10 mins, I promise the next one will be more interesting.

- Love, Cara x
