Thought of Day

Insecurity is such a big deal especially in your teenage years. Learn to embrace your imperfections. Life is too short and precious to waste on people who doesn't appreciate who and what you are.

GOOD LUCK!

23 years of Existence

Been put down, criticized by many, misunderstood by some, lack of self esteem, how to live life to the fullest. These are just a few things that I face in everyday life but made me stronger in the past year. I'm so happy and blessed that I have come this far. I'm very thankful in every way to have such amazing people who believes and supports me and also thank you Lord for another year of pretty things to come. Things did not go as I have planned but I thank Jack for being there, making it so special. This year will be filled with great adventures, memories and challenges life can teach us. New goals and new opportunities my way and looking forward to tackle any tough roads along the way.

Stay happy and healthy!

Getting by Student LIFE

            Students like me can relate to this as we tend to leave everything to last minute. Cramming on studies and projects is such a disaster! But why don't we learn anything from it? I think its psychological thinking that since we have more time, we can manage to have fun and do school related works later on. The problem is majority of our time is spent on having too much fun! Finding balance and time management is the hardest especially when you're a university student. It is either you are finding it difficult to fit your schedule between job, lectures, and free time. 

First of is to set your priorities

This could be school works, family, friends. By knowing your priorities, you can move on and start working it around your schedule.

Second is to plan and organize your time for the day

Having a schedule for everything is a good idea of avoiding stress and also could help you in being productive. This way, you won't waste any time doing nothing. TO-DO LIST is good to set your goals for the day and this will prevent you from cramming.

Third is to keep active

Active lifestyle helps your body and soul. It keeps you fit physically which helps your body to release stress and anxiety. 

Fourth is to read, explore and be creative

DIY projects, reading your favorite books, or going for a walk and taking snapshots are the things I like doing whenever I want to relax. This allows me to have a variety of imagination to produce something. Sometimes it is useful in remembering ideologies you are studying from words you read, artworks you made, or things you see. 

SOCIALIZE!

 Nothing beats talking to friends about anything! This diverts your mind towards over thinking and helps you understand that you are not alone. Surrounding yourself with creative people is good way to enhance your creative skills and make you strive harder. Forming study groups allows you to express and intellectually discuss things that you do and do not understand. This is the best stress reliever you can ever imagine!








               I hope these tips will help you focus and find motivation to strive harder and do things as you go without thinking of "I still have a lot of time" which every students normally do. Doing things as much as possible is great because you can get things done and start with new things without having to panic. Of course it does not only apply in studying but it applies to your everyday life as well!
