Day 4
There is something about this day that makes me feel so motivated. I even slept early last night despite my siblings continuously ramming my door because they still want to play with me.
No matter what time I go to bed, I always make sure that I sleep for at least 7 to 8 hours. If I failed to do so, I’ll do siesta just to complete the amount of rest my body needs to prevent weakening my immune system as mine is weak.
As a not-so-stellar student, doing advance study is my only way to cope up and be able to engage myself during lectures without feeling left out. I have no problems in memorizing the lessons no matter how lengthy it is, but I do have a problem in retaining it for a long period of time. So, I use Anki. I use flashcards. I recite everything as soon as I wake up everyday so that I won’t forget it.
I used to have a bullet journal as a guide and planner but I couldn’t keep up with it. I run out of ideas after a month or two and I am so not satisfied with my arts. I always end up hating it. Now, I use excel to plan out my entire week. It’s digital and I don’t have to worry too much on the designs and whatnot.
Writing has always been my favorite thing to do. Recently, I have started making “aesthetic” notes. I am still not good at it as I have a lot to improve. Writing also helped me to remember my lessons. I can almost picture out the reviewers that I wrote and that has helped me a lot during exams.
I just want to insert my mom’s plants here. She is so in love with her mini-garden, her cactus, the succulents, and different plants.
