place your alarm clock somewhere out of reach so that you are forced to get up
drink one or two glasses of water after waking up to get your body working and maybe stretch a little
avoid sugary foods for breakfast. eat whole grain bread or oat flakes with fresh fruit and yogurt. this way you wonât get hungry before midday and youâll be full of energy
participate in class. ask questions and donât worry that someone will laugh, no one will. they wonât probably even care or be extremly thankful that you actually had the balls to ask a question they were too afraid to ask themselves. and if someone laughs att you, f them. youâre here to learn for yourself, not for them. besides, we all have asked stupid questions and we know it
take notes. you donât have to write down everything the teacher says. just write down the most important things and the things the teacher repeats. write down everything they write on the board, itâs probable thatâll be on a test or exam. keep your notes short but complete
use highlighters if you feel like it. you donât have to but it often helps finding the most important terms while going through your notes or revising for a test
eat. if you arenât hungry during the first break at least eat something during lunch break. your brain needs the energy and itâll prevent you from having headaches during last period. but please try to eat something healthy and not that disgusting junk
drink water whenever you get the possibility. keep your body hydrated
revise your notes during free periods or do your homework. if you get distracted easily by others, listen to some calm music if youâre allowed to. use that free time to get work done. but donât worry if you use that free time to talk to your friends. we all need a break sometime
do your homework as soon as you get home from school so that you have the rest of the evening to yourself
revise or rewrite your notes if you need to
eat a snack to get back some energy
go for a walk, workout a little bit or go out with some friends (if youâve got the time)Â
itâll help you relax and youâll finally get a break from school
read a book or listen to some music
take a nap if youâre tired
pack your bag/backpack the evening before class. itâll save you time and youâre less likely to forget stuff on your desk
use the pomodoro technique or the forest app to to stay focused
start with the easy tasks
if you have some essays or presentations due in a few days/weeks time start preparing them the day you the teacher announces it. itâll save you time and you wonât have to do everything last minute. you know how stressed you get when you have to do a paper that is due to tomorrow
if you have a book to read break it down to chapters and read one everyday. that way itâll seem less work and yo get done faster
use this website for correcting essays
reward yourself for your hard work. take a break, watch a youtube video, check your social media or eat a snack and then go back to work after a few minutes
extracurricular activities
if you get the possibility to participate in some clubs or sports then grab your chance. youâll be able to socialise and find new friends
but please donât go overboard with your extracurricular activities. they can take a lot of your time and you could fall behind if you donât keep eye out
donât worry, it happens to the best of us. try not to miss or skip too many classes. ask some friends to lend you their notes so that you can copy them and revise them later
ask your teacher to explain things you didnât understand. if they canât explain it to you during class go meet them after class. show them that you are interested and theyâll be more willing to explain you everything
take extra classes if you really have problems in a class. they can be helpful in most cases and even if you understand the subject it can always help to have someone else explain it to you
ask the teacher to give you extra exercices. it shows them that you want to improve and it could give you some extra points. itâll help you revise at the same time
try to be as organized as possible. itâs a lot easier to focus when you donât distracted by all that mess around you
always keep feminine toiletries and all that jazz with. youâll never know when you need it
meditate or do some yoga (if you like it). it can help you relax and give you some energy
remember your (mental) health is more important than your grades. if you actually feel bad, stay at home and take a day off
donât get too stressed about getting straight Aâs. do your best and work for yourself, not others. set goals and work towards them. show yourself that you can do it but donât panic if you fail, it happens to all of us. learn from your mistakes and try to do your best the next time
donât stress too much about being in a relationship. focus on your work and if the time is right itâll arrange itself. just donât get too caught up in it
you shouldnât care about popularity. look for people you have something in common with and stay with them. it doesnât help to have friends that only act as if they like you and then toss you in the corner if they donât need you anymore. and if you are popular, donât act like an asshole, please
try to respect the rules and teachers. only bad stuff comes from being hated by your teachers (speaking from experience)
have fun. school can get tough but if you have a positive outlook on things than it wonât be as bad as you may think
speak to someone if you have problems or struggle to deal with things. if things get too much, just open up to someone, get it off your chest. keeping things for yourself will only make it worse
