- ĢĢ transitioning between semesters:Ā a roseplans masterlistĀ -
Hello everyone! As we all wind down and finish off our fall semesters, we finally feel like we can breathe. For the weeks or month you all have off for break between semesters (Iām going off the US school system here) it can be easy to fall back into old habits. I myself am extremely bad about wasting time and falling back into lazy habits. Not saying that giving yourself some ME time and winding down from a hectic semester is bad, but you donāt want to head into next semester unprepared. So here are just a few suggestions for how I spend my break before transitioning into next semester!
- TIME: Itās great to have free time, especially during break, but donāt let it all go to your head! Fill your time with something productive. Find a new hobby, or a new craft! Work on that project youāve been putting off for weeks. Try baking, or cooking. Job hunt. Work. Clean. If you feel yourself falling back into old habits of doing nothing (which, trust me, I know can be very relaxing) try to break out of the system, and focus on something else!Ā
- EXERCISE: Now, this one isnāt for everyone, but Iām putting it on this list because itās helped me a lot. When I feel bored, or lonely, or stressed out, the best thing to do is just get up and move. I know some people canāt, or it doesnāt affect them the same way, but if you find yourself antsy or bored, try this! You can go for a run, you can do yoga, or you can just dance. Going to the gym can be boring and mind numbing sometimes, but it doesnāt have to be! Just do something that you like that gets you moving, and see if it helps at all!
- PASSION: Whatās something that you love doing? Have you had time for it recently? Donāt let your free time swallow you up with things you just like doing, what do you love doing? I always find myself happier after focusing on something Iām passionate about, and time seems to fly by when Iām doing it! Writing, editing, baking, creating, even watching that movie youāve been dying to see. Anything you love that you havenāt had time to do, do it now!
- PREPARE: What are your classes for next semester? Is there anything you need to purchase? What about text books? Can you access the syllabus? Anything you can do to get ready for your classes next semester, you should take advantage of. If you have to travel to get to your school or university, like me, Iād suggest going back so that you have a least a day or two on campus before your actual classes start. Itās really difficult transitioning back into school, especially after break. So giving yourself a day or two to readjust to campus and prepare yourself for classes can make or break your first week, at least in my experience!Ā
So here you have it! My first shot at creating a masterlist. I know not everything on here applies to everyone, but these suggestions have helped me a lot, and so I decided to share to see if it could help someone else! So give it a shot if you can, and let me know how it worked for you! Iād love to hear any stories, suggestions, requests or questions you might have on this masterlist or anything studyblr related! You can message me [ H E R E ] or feel free to email me atĀ [email protected]!Ā
