✨ how to deal with failure: a brief guide for the completely done and utterly fed up student ✨
first of all, recognise - and i don’t mean just read, internalise it - that failing is okay. you’re not dumb, you’re not unworthy of taking the class, you might’ve not even necessarily had the wrong approach; you did, however, in any case, have bad luck. and that can be changed. it absolutely can be changed and you do have the time to adjust your studying so you can make up for the misstep. it’s gon be okay buttercup <3
1. vent to a friend/sb you’re close with
i personally attacked my bestie, talked to a few other ppl, and it helped get some of the frustration out. it’s also important you learn to speak to yourself how you would to a friend - you certainly wouldn’t tell them they’re a failure and won’t come back from this, would you? what you actively tell yourself shapes your subconscious thoughts.
2. catch up on the self care you’ve neglected when studying
get a long shower to wash the exam off, eat your meals slowly, get enough sleep (!), clean your room (unburden The Chair™ - srsly, do your laundry - and vacuum, change your bedsheets perhaps?)
3. make a study plan for the retake
be sure to make it realistic and flexible so you don’t end up inducing more stress (helpful posts: 1 2 3 4 (not mine)), try to finish all the topics at least 3 days before the exam so you can spend the last days refreshing your knowledge and preparing mentally instead of cramming.
4. reflect (critically) on your studying so far
is there anything you can do to get more out of your time? quality over quantity is super important when it comes to revision; try implementing more active recall into your study sessions (some posts you can consult on this topic: 1 2 3 (not mine), what is active recall?) and spacing them out more; try to avoid cramming as it increases your stress levels and isn’t as affective with committing information to memory. also, if you asses you could use some help, reach out! ask a friend, get in touch with your professor, seek advice online… getting help = showing readiness for improvement = mature and very welcome!
5. schedule self-care time
when you’re making your study plan, remember to also think of your mental and physical health ● you can space out little acts of self care throughout the week (i.e. take a bubble bath every sunday, schedule a weekly video call with your best friend, allot time to spend with your s/o, do a quick workout every day,…) ● or have a ‘mental health day’ for a whole day each week (i.e. on saturdays, only do things you enjoy - spend the day reading/drawing/binging netflix/baking/…); i personally like to space my self care throughout the week and go for a walk with my best friend every two weeks or so. i’m not kidding, schedule your ‘me’ time into your planner. write. it. down.
6. sleep
i’ve mentioned it already but it’s so important it deserves it’s own bullet point - remember to also take good care of your brain. it is, after all, the organ working the hardest here. a whole day of studying, doing chores, talking to people, etc. has your synapses firing away like crazy, so sleeping is vital for them to recover and come back stronger the next day. give them time to cool down, process the information you’ve gathered throughout the day and store it somewhere you can access it later. seriously. an important note here: there isn’t a single amount of sleep that is optimal for everyone - some people work best on 6 hours of sleep, some can’t go on less than 9. dedicate yourself to figuring out what works best for you and learn to plan your wake up time. ● option no. 1: get into the habit of going to sleep and waking up every. day. at. the. same. time. - a good routine is even more vital in these times when time doesn’t even matter bc we literally don’t go anywhere ever. ● option no. 2: if your uni/work schedule doesn’t allow you to establish a daily routine, try using sleepyti.me to calculate when you should wake up to feel most refreshed :)
hopefully these points can serve as a base/reference for your academic rebound <3 i wrote them up after straight up skipping the grieving-this-is-unfair phase of failure and just being left with a slightly-pissed-but-definitely-fed-up-with-this-class feeling. it dawned on me that i surely can’t be the only one facing this, so i decided to share this and hopefully help you guys out as well:) keep in mind: your worth has zero correlation with your grades, you’re a bad bitch and will not stop bc life tried to knock u down - here’s a quote i like: when life knocks you down, calmly get back up and very politely say, “you hit like a bitch”. after that, u can follow these steps and flourish x

This is the last day where we can make the “I don’t have a 2020 vision” joke so profit from it!! Okay everything aside, I really hope that 2020 will be a wonderful year for everyone💕

july 07, 2019. 
Hey guys! So here are some life updates so far: my mother is going to a cooking class for four days this upcoming week as part of her job and her friend (along with her two young children) are coming over to our house to help me watch my siblings and I’m not looking forward to it at all ugh, I still haven’t recovered from reading The Chosen by Chaim Potok bcs it was just so damn good and I’ve already adopted both Reuven and Danny, I’ve been thinking about how difficult and scary it is to change plans sometimes, I’m really stressed about the inevitability of the college process but hoping for the best, and I’m really hoping that everything will work out fine and I can just wallow in contentment while possibly watching Game of Thrones. I hope y’all have a lovely week ahead! ✨

21.05. I received another bad grade today. I'm feeling like I don't belong in law school, my health is getting in the way of my success and my future doesn't seem bright, it's quite tiring. On a positive note though, I got to visit one of my favourite parks where I used to spend a lot of time as a child, it was a lovely (and rainy) afternoon.

hey all ! it’s been a while since i made my own post.
here are some highlights and lowlights (anyone else listen to gals on the go?)
lowlights:
☽ i’ve struggled with gathering mental and physical energy to do my work
☽ i’ve spent lots of time on mandatory events, classes, and assignments that i don’t particularly enjoy (as much as i love my extra curriculars and my majors, there are aspects to them i don’t always enjoy)
☽ because of these two points, i haven’t spent as much time on my studyblr as i would like
highlights:
✰ i’ve created room for activities with friends that i genuinely enjoy and don’t feel obligated to do
✰ i’m representing the organizations i’m a part of with pride — whether on a shirt, instagram, or stickers, i’m actively choosing to remember why i choose to be a part of them
come into my inbox with some highlights & lowlights of the school year so far !! let’s talk (-:
xo,
marie
