maryplethora:My exams are rapidly approaching (just 9 days left!!) and amongst all the study tips posts that are popping up, I wanted to do a post about those days when things don’t go as planned. Be it that you walk out of an exam and feel like you bombed it, or that you get back a disappointing score. We all know the feeling. So here are some things that I like to do to make the day suck a little less!Have some chocolate (light/dark/milk, hot/cold/whatever as preferred)Have a bath, or a long showerGo for a walk or a jog, preferably surrounded by natureFind someone/something to cuddleEven if you have things to do, give yourself a breakTidy your room/flat/whatever to get a fresh perspectiveOpen all windows and air out your roomIf you have things that need to be done, make a to do list and sort your brain outOrganise your clutter/notes/room/whateverDo come colouring in a colouring book (these are awesome)Try your hand at painting, even if you’re terrible at itMake yourself some teaBake something (and eat it without feeling guilty afterwards)Light a nice-smelling candleSpend time with the positive forces in your life, be it parents, friends or petsWatch your favourite movie (preferably with someone who loves it as much as you)Go on spotify, pandora, soundcloud, 8tracks or wherever and look for new musicIf you find some really good music, have a dance partyPut on your favourite outfit (+ makeup look if you’re into that)Paint your nails, shave, moisturize, wash your face and pamper yourselfCheck out universityandme‘s “You are a force of nature” tagIf you need someone to talk to, send me an ask, either here or on my main blog, saturdaystudying -- source link
