today i just realized… i’m starting school next week! i know a lot of people have already started and others still have a little while to wait, but either way i thought i’d put together a little thing to get you all jazzed for the new school year because for some reason, i’m not really feelin’ it.

week(s) before you start school:

make a de-stress box!!

i plan on making a post about this within the week but… here are a few basic tips until then.

use a card board box- shoe boxes work best

include things that help you calm down when you’re upset/stressed

CD’s, special notes, soft pieces of fabric, face masks, temporary tattoos, maybe even a movie.

it’s also pretty calming to decorate the outside of your box with stickers, a collage, or just with paints and markers.

start a journal (or a bullet journal if you’re into it)

do some general research on new study methods

start fixing up your sleeping schedule

exercise 2x a week, then carry your new habit into the school year (even if you have a gym class! exercising on your own is soooo important)

(obviously) go school supply shopping!!! (make sure you only get general items though, teachers can sometimes be specific about what they want you to have for their class.)

diy your school supplies. it’s always super fun to buy cheap supplies and then customize them. make covers for your notebooks, tape or paint your pencils, or tie-dye your pencil bag.

the day before:

sleep in, it’s your last day of freedom

pack your backpack (if you haven’t already)

use a face mask

do some yoga

relax. it’s all gonna be great

go to sleep early

the first day

meet your teachers!

reconnect with your friends

ask questions

supplies

the syllabus (or if there isn’t one, ask for a general over view. most likely (if you’re in high school) they’ll talk a lot about expectations, but you should have time at the end of each class to talk

bring a water bottle. if you think you’ll be nervous (i know i will), sucking/chewing on a straw and carrying a bottle or just something to hold on to will help

the weekend after:

use your de-stress box!

do some yoga. it will help, i promise

don’t feel pressured to hang with friends right off the bat- jumping back into being social everyday from being social once a week (or less), (like me) can be a little daunting. take time for yourself.

read something, books can be a great way to wind down

your teachers (if you’re in high school) probably haven’t given out any assignments. if anything, maybe some in-class work, but nothing too awfully important. use this “free” time to maybe do some general research for topics at your teachers mentioned would be covered. this can be a great way to understand things better when you go more in depth in class

documentaries are great ways to learn about a topic without getting too awfully intense.

go school supply shopping again!! now buy the things your teachers request you have for their classes. these things can include fancy calculators, binders of a certain size, etc.

Hello, On september 2nd, i got the news that my mom had passed away, because of that, i missed almost 2 and half weeks of class, i take 4 college classes and was wondering if you have any tips on getting back on track. I could really use motivation

I’m so sorry for your loss, sweetheart.

Here are some things you should do first:

Ask your teachers for advice: You can ask them for any hand outs you might have missed, ask them for practice tests, ask them what you can do to catch up, ask them to explain difficult bits after school,…

Ask friends/ classmates for their notes or help: If they don’t want to give your their notes, just ask them to explain things if your teachers don’t have time!

Read through your textbooks and start making summaries: If you’re pretty much alone on this one, start by annotating and summarising your textbooks. You’ll be able to study and learn on your own.

hello again dear friends!!! a lot of you have asked me how to stay productive during holidays + this is just a tiny masterpost to help you make the most out of your holidays :]

wake up early!!! this helps you get stuff done

also don’t sleep too late at night [unless it’s christmas eve or new year’s eve then i understand why you’re still up]

take time for yourself!!! practice your hobbies, take baths, go on vacation, sleep a little bit more…take a day to do whatever you may feel like doing, holidays shouldn’t be stressful [here are some ideas]

finish that book you wanted to finish or start a new one!! remember life is not just studying all the time

prioritise what you need to do + get your homework done asap!!! do the trickiest tasks first so you just have simpler ones left to do [if any]

revise!! this will help you just in case you have any important exams coming up after the holidays or just to keep your mind refreshed on the material you did in class

make a list of goals you want to accomplish next year!!

find time to go shop for gifts [if you do that sort of thing]

keep in contact with your family and friends!!! the holidays are the best time you get to talk to your family and friends, hang out with your friends and visit your relatives

organise your desk/room etc!! this helps you to free your mind and helps you stay productive [plus it’ll be prepared for the next scholastic term]

try to fit in time to exercise or go for a nice walk

avoid procrastination!! don’t waste your time no matter how good it may feel, you’ll thank yourself later [check out some apps here to accomplish this]

if you have any school projects, try to get most of them done during the holidays!! lord knows you’ll have a lot to do during the school year so any little extra work will help

try making your decorations instead of buying them [here are some ideas]

create shopping lists in advance!! these will help you make sure to get what you need and avoid buying what you don’t need [be it food, gifts, decorations etc.]

do some online shopping!! as you might be well aware of, january is the perfect time to treat yourself, take advantage of those sales
