Helloo guys:))))

I haven't really been active lately, but here's a picture of my current desk set up and the view from the window right next to the desk.

I hope you like them.

I've been working really hard for a test tomorrow and one on Thursday. O hope everything goes well.

Have a nice, lovely and super productive and exciting week full of joy and success.

I know I'm not the best photographer but I try my best.

See you.

Anne.

Here are a few easy tips to help you take care of yourself even when you are bursting at the seams with responsibilites. 

Take a walk or go on a run

Make yourself a nice meal...it is time to treat yourself

Drink a cup of hot coffee or tea while listening to your favorite song

Make a list of everything you are grateful for that week

Text your friend and make plans to see each other or get lunch

Take a hot bath and use your favorite soaps and sugar scrubs

Put on your most comfortable clothes 

Watch an episode of your favorite TV show 

Clean up five items in your room (maybe they are all laying on your floor)

Try meditation or yoga

Unplug for 30 minutes, no phone, computer or TV (yes, that does mean no Tumblr for 30 minutes)

Take a power nap - aim for around 20 to 30 minutes so you can wake up feeling energized again

Spend time with your family or pets for a little while, remind yourself that the small moments are just as important as the large ones

Life is really hard and can be a true pain somedays...trust me I know. It is important to step back and remember that taking care of yourself always always ALWAYS comes first. Life is tough, but you are tougher. 

Ok so, my post yesterday was not very good and I want to give you a better explanation as to why I post so little nowadays and what I have to do at school, and generally just tell you guys more about my everyday. 

I’m heading towards the end of my first year as an IBDP-student, and I am exhausted. I have so much on my mind, and so little time. 

These are the things I need to get done with before summer break (21st of June):

- Mathematical Studies IA, 1st draft is to be handed in on the 16th of May and I have barely started because I am struggling with my investigation

- TOK presentation. It has to be ready in two weeks. I feel like I have good control over this task, I’m just extremely nervous about it. 

- Mock exams! I have a mock exam in each subject, starting on the 31st of May and ending on the 6th of June.

- History essay (small task, just difficult and annoying)

- G4 project

- CAS reflections! Oh God. I hate them so much!!!

- Written assignment in Norwegian.

In addition to all this, we are soon starting our science IAs, and I have no idea what to do. I also have to do my CAS activities, and at the top I have a lot of plans outside of school. ALSO, I am applying for jobs and am stressed about money. 

I hope this gives you a better understanding of why I’m gone. But as I said yesterday, I am working on a revision-schedule for my mock exams which I will post as soon as it’s done! Hopefully by friday
