5/100 days of productivity

I spent my morning doing my reports and writing some notes while I wait for my cousin. She picked me up and we went to a cafe because she needed help with her basic calculus. 

Afterwards, we had dinner together with our families, plus her brother’s gf and the gf’s fam. I had a strawberry shake and it was super yummy but the strawberries were a bit too sour.

I left early and went to a cafe to meet with some high school friends and studied for my exams the next day. When everyone left I transferred to another cafe (Green Coffee near some mall). I forgot to take pictures because I was so in the zone of studying. It was my first time there but it was alright, I liked the noise and chatter, it helped me stay awake. Plus the green tea latte was yummy~ Good thing my hs classmate and college schoolmate picked me up and dropped me off at home since he was in the area that time (there are only 3 of us from our hs in the same college so we became a bit close). 

Exams tomorrow! Hope all goes well!

100 days of productivity (nth attempt)

So yknow..quarantine has got me feeling like a ball of unproductivity rolling around the house and eating everything jk. Classes were suspended abruptly, and we only had 2 weeks left of school supposedly, so we postponed them and had online exams done through skype and fb messenger. It was SOOOOO stressful and inefficient tbh. Afterwards I was just a bundle of nerves bc I had two major subjects where my standing was really bad (I’m not saying I might get a B+ when I expected an A, not at all. I meant I had high chances of getting an F because of my lazy ass self who sucks at time management. I kept crying at times because if I got an F in any subject I won’t be able to be an officer for the next school year in any of my orgs/clubs (I’m an incoming officer for 5 different clubs...5!!!!! T-T ). Been doing nothing for the past few weeks until grades came in AND THANKFULLY I PASSED. I LEGIT BROKE DOWN AND CRIED OUT OF RELIEF. I told all of my friends and classmates that my whole class passed!! (We had 2 diff blocks and my block only had 10 students since we were considered “regulars”).

 Now I was suddenly contacted by the founding director of one of my clubs, and we apparently had a deadline for the club application in our school which was in 2 days!! We both didn’t know but thankfully he already processed some of the other requirements before classes were suspended.

day 2/100

I can’t say I’ve been the most productive since the weather today was soooo nice. It rained and I watched a kdrama while relaxing ☺️

Organizing my papers and printing some stuff made me feel a lot more in control of things and now I know where I’m standing a bit better. Feeling lost is one way of setting yourself up for procrastination. I like knowing when my deadlines are, what documents do I have, what can I do with the time given to me, etc.

I set up my study/revision trackers for a few of my subjects. Man do I have so much to learn HAHAHA. Hopefully my brain can keep up! Having a color coding system also helps. I’ve assigned a specific color to each subject I have and that really helps me focus. I don’t like having too much colors, but when I do I make sure they’re kind of pastel or muted.

My working area was so cluttered bc of all of my papers, and it’s the semester is only starting!! Working on my organizing skills so hopefully I can keep this up! Hope you all enjoy the rest of your break!

8 / 100 days of productivity

After classes I studied at the library with my classmates. I studied phy chem first before momentum transfer, then it was announced that our phy chem exam would be moved 🙃

Tbh lately I’ve been a mess and I lack sleep. My body can’t keep up and I still end up with low scores. I think I really need to change something with my methods, so here’s to hoping I can figure something out!

3/100 days of productivity

I feel so unproductive today and I only have 3 days left til school.

Yes I didn’t manage my christmas break well bc all I did was enjoy my time with family and relax lmao but no regrets tho.

My progress on my laboratory reports has been so slooow but I’m really sleepy now and I just finished watching Bohemian Rhapsody with my family and it’s already midnight 😂 gotta let myself rest and hopefully tomorrow I can finish all of my other tasks! Here’s a timelapse of me making notes lmao yes my desk is very cluttered yes that’s my curtain

4/100 days of productivity

Friends unexpectedly invited me to study out and make our reports together. I missed them a lot since I’m in a different block than them but we do have some classes together!

One of them had to go home early so we decided to continue our reports at their place where we had a few drinks. I am in no way promoting drinking so please do so at your own discretion. I will admit I drink a lot but I don’t like the party scenes haha we just have chill sessions, and it helps with my anxiety.

9/100 days of productivity

I cried in the bathroom earlier

Bombed my exam on momentum transfer. It was such a big wake up call and slap in the fave that what I’m doing isn’t effective. I went to the school chapel afterwards. Cried and prayed for a while. I had lunch with one of my best guy friends, it’s been a while since we hung out. But I managed to enjoy my PE class though.

7/100 days of productivity

Bombed my exams today. Focused on the first subject but our prof forgot that we had an exam so I bombed my phy chem test. I really wanted to cry but I have nothing else I can do but reflect on what I did wrong and where I lacked so that I can do better next time.

I met with my mom and her workmate since they bought office supplies, so I bought some stuff for myself too. New pens, a cute highlighter, some plastic folders and pockets (for organization purposes), and some cute clips. Idk why but even the simplest stationery purchases cheered me up. I decided to stay at a cafe at the nearest mall and studied a bit with a hs friend who went to school near that mall. First time there and I can honestly say it’s a nice place. Decent prices, good coffee quality, a lot of outlets, and free wifi. 

I was so happy bc I also met up with more hs friends afterwards. Met with my friend April!!! Last saw her in 2018, so it was such a great feeling when I saw her again.
