🗓  march 7th 2020

Maybe I'm not the best at this kind of advice, but my friend was struggling and I just had to help her. Thought I would share the advices I gave her:

Take a break!!

Calm down. Push you notes aside and breathe deeply. Breathe a few times. All this worring is not going to take you anywhere. Close your eyes and breathe.  

Write down what you feel 

Take all those things the voices in your head are telling you and lay them all on the paper. Everything. Trust me, you'll feel better once you've drained all that. 

 Take a shower 

Keeping to try to study isn't going to take you anywhere if you're still in the same state. Go and take a shower, a bath. Treat yourself with it. Relax. Let the water wash all that negativity. 

 Prepare a cup of your comfort drink 

Can be tea (like me), can be coffee, can be chocolate, can be even soup. Whatever. Whatever drink makes you feel warm inside, just make a cup of it and drink it slowly. 

 Sit down and set your mind

My name is Arina, and I love the studyblr community! I’ve had a couple blogs before, but now that I’m becoming more serious about my education, I should introduce myself!

The Basics:

I am a freshman in high school (14 years old)

I’m from the US

I LOVE politics so very, very much

My dream school is Georgetown University, and I hope to major in political science and minor in media studies!

Fun Facts:

I’m bilingual :D I know Russian and English, but my Russian is quite rusty! I am also a French student.

I am the brunette version of both Leslie Knope and Elle Woods

I love to volunteer!

My favorite color is yellow

My favorite book is The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon

Mindy Kaling is my favorite person on this planet

My motto is WWOD: What Would Obama Do? This includes Michelle ;)

Why did I make this studyblr?

I haven’t been doing so well in the motivation department recently, so I decided to log back into tumblr and remind myself of why I loved studyblr in the first place! I also want to help others with their education as well!

What kind of posts will you be making?

I will be posting photos of things I’m proud of, but also reference posts and rants about things I am passionate about. I plan on posting soon about flipped classroom, volunteering, political books, and studying for finals.
