A week in my life - Tuesday (9/12/17)

6:30 AM: I woke up and turned my September Playlist on. (I will do a post with my spotify playlists if you're interested ^^) 6:35 AM: I got dressed (I wore the same clothes as yesterday) and went downstairs to do my makeup and brush my teeth. 6:55 AM: I then packed my school stuff (I had Biology and Geography today, so books and folders for both) and went downstairs again to had breakfast. 7:00 AM: Breakfast (Cereals, as usual) 7:20 AM: Me, my father, my sister and my brother left for school. We dropped my sister off on her school and then my father took us to our school (he's in 7th grade, I'm a senior), before he drove off to work, so I was at school at 7:35 maybe. 7:50 AM - 1:15 PM: School ^^ My mum picked me up, since she was already in town again ^^ (She and my dad work out of town, in case you wondered) 1:30 PM: relax till lunch (I took a nap because I was so done xD) 2:10 PM: Lunch ^^ 2:30 PM: Homework for Wednesday and the rest of the week. I again had no homework for Wednesday, but some Biology and Geography for Thursday. Also I went over my notes for a music presentation about neoclassicism I have to do on Wednesday (9/13/17). 3:30 PM: Then I did my workout directly after my homework, because I felt like if I wouldn't have get up then, I would have skipped it, which I successfully avoided ^^ 4 PM: I did 15 Minutes of Duolingo Spanish, I basically just do that because I want to keep some of my spanish skills that I developed from 6th grade to sophomore year. Around 4:20 PM I started my daily hour of graduation revision notes. I did 15 Minutes on Maths, then half an hour on history and then again 15 Minutes on Maths. 5:20 PM: I then cleaned up my desk and my room as far as I could in ten minutes, and then me and my mom left for my Cello lesson. 5:35 PM - 7 PM: I was away, my cello lesson actually only is between 6 PM and 6:45 PM, but the way to the building takes like 15 Minutes. 7:10 PM: I had dinner with my sister and my dad, my mom was practicing english and spanish with my brother and they ate later at around 8 PM. We all had soup, which tasted really good ^^ 8 PM: I then sat down at my desk, did some extra duolingo Spanish (simply because I was in the mood), set up some trackers for my mental health for September (I know I'm late >.<), updated this and then I went and watched some YouTube. 8:50 PM: I then became super motivated and I did half an hour of Geography revision notes. 9:20 PM: I went downstairs, had a nice chat with my brother and my mom, and then we tested each other on my brother's spanish and english vocab which is really funny, because I always know the most vocabulary ^^ 9:40 PM: I then went upstairs again, went to bed, because I was tired and didn't want to drink more coffee than usual the next morning. I also posted this, so.. yeah, here we go ^^

For everyone who struggles with their oral/participation grades

So all throughout my school career, I was never getting half as good participation grades as I actually could have gotten because I always hesistated to participate. And even now this is still a thing (in my senior year). If you experience the same thing, read further!!

Okay, so before we’re moving to solution methods, you have to figure out, why you’re not participating.

1. It is possible that you would love to participate, but have a hard time understanding what is happening and what you’re dealing with? Have you an idea of what to say or not? (Understanding Problem) 2. Or are you afraid of saying stuff in class? (Anxiety problem) Varities of Nr.1) 1. It’s possible you don’t quite understand whatever you’re current topic is about. Everyone has these topics (I never understood how exactly the german gov works xD). I’d generally say try to understand it as best as you can. If you end up not understanding it all through the way, it’s not that bad. As long as you at least understand parts of it!!! Ask teachers, your parents, friends, classmates for help!! The only way out of this is studying. 2. It’s also possible that you struggle with the whole class (I struggled with Physics all through out my school career until I could finally get rid of it in sophomore year). When it comes to not understanding a whole class, figure out why. Often it is because you don’t have the basics. If you’re not willing to put energy in a class like this, try to get rid of it asap and don’t take it next year if you can. Until then, at least try to be the best you can and study (even if the end result is, just like in my case, a C with a thick and fat minus or worse. My teacher actually wanted to give me a D, but I asked him to give me a C because I was not going to take Physics ever again xD). SO: Either get rid of it or study rly hard! 3. Maybe you and your teacher don’t really get along, maybe you don’t understand the way they ask questions and what exactly they want to hear. Possible!! But these teachers oftentimes have students in their classes that manage to say what they want to hear. Listen to these carefully and try to adapt your answers. If you notice that your teacher is unfair (Example below), try to talk with classmates about it, any authority figure that could talk to the teacher or confront the teacher yourself. In a nice and polite way though, please! (weird and hilarious) example: Teacher: When was WW2? You: It began on 1st September 1939 and ended on May 9th 1945. Teacher: *gives you a weird look that implies you’re wrong* *picks another student* Other student: The time between September 1st 1939 and May 9th 1945 is called WW2. Teacher: Correct!!! Okay, so we’re through the understanding part. I myself though have less problems understanding but rather am afraid of talking in front of other people in any way possible; I suffer from (social) anxiety disorder. I know it can take you a lot to just raise your hand and knowing you’ll be picked because you never talk. Possible solutions: - try to concentrate on one or two classes that are the most important or that are the easiest for you to show up in. Then try to set yourself a goal ‘I’ll show up once in these classes’. If you fulfill the goal, you’ll be super proud of yourself, and you have every right to feel this way. I am always excited whenever I say something xD - try to talk to your teachers about your problems, and explain roughly how participation makes you feel like. You don’t have to go in detail about anything if you don’t feel comfortable doing so. - look for some calming, stress relieving exercises or “mantras” for people with anxiety. - find someone in your class that is a “safe haven”. Someone that gives you a sense of security, even if this is your teacher. You don’t even have to tell them. Ofc it’s not always working, but it did quite well for me in some of my classes. - don’t stress yourself too much. Everything is going to be okay, and it’s completely fine when you don’t show up because you’re on the verge of a panic attack and can’t speak. - treat yourself for showing up ^^ you deserve it. - I’d recommend seeing a therapist if its getting really bad, not just “shyness”, but panic attacks and true fear. If you have anything to add, criticize, say, sing (ok just kidding), feel free to do so!!

A week in my life - Wednesday (9/13/17)

6:45 AM: I woke up, turned All Time Low on, and got dressed (I wore a Hogwarts Shirt and grey jeans, also black converse) 7:00 AM: I decided to not put on Makeup today, and had breakfast. 7:20 AM: Me, my dad, my sister and my brother left for school. 7:50 AM - 3:10 PM: School ^^ I also had my music presentation that went kinda well. I also had two free periods so I managed to do all my homework then. After school, my grandpa picked me and my siblings up and drove us home. 3:30 PM: We had lunch, which I cooked since my mum was working late that day. 4 PM: I sat down at my desk, did 15 Minutes of Duolingo Dutch, but I got really frustrated half way through because I wasn't feeling well and confused a lot of vocab and then Duolingo told me that "Het spijt me" and "sorry" mean different things. Like what. xD 4:30 PM: I decided on not working out because I had light fever and took a nap instead. 6 PM: I woke up, ate some pudding and then sat down at my desk again and did 2 hours on revision notes because a) I was insanely motivated and b) I felt so much better. 8 PM: My mum and my dad came home and we had dinner :) 9 PM: I went to bed, since I was kinda tired and exhausted.

A week in my life - Monday (9/11/17)

8:00 AM: Wake up, turn some punk rock music up (I love Green Day songs on a low volume, but I recently started getting into All Time Low too, because they really cheer me up) 8:10 AM: Get up, get dressed (I wore a striped T-Shirt today, black high waist jeans, Vans and a black cardigan) 8:20 AM: makeup and brush teeth 8:30 AM: Pack school stuff (if not done the night before xD I needed my history folder and book today, and also my english folder and the book 'To kill a mockingbird' that we're currently reading in english) 8:40 AM: Breakfast!! (I had cereals this morning, just like every other day too.) 9:45 AM - 1:15 PM: School! After that, I usually get picked up by my mom or I walk home like today. 1:30 PM: relax till lunch (typically around 2pm; I just went on YouTube and watched an interesting ducomentary about Anne Frank) Around 2:20 PM: Homework for Tuesday (which was none today, lucky me ^^), and if it's before 3 PM, I usually begin with all the other homework I have to do for the rest of the week. I do that chronologically, so the stuff for Wednesday first, then for Thursday and so on. I had to do History today, and nothing else, so I finished earlier than usually. Around 2:50 PM: Relax till 4 PM ^^ (I laid in my bed because I was really cold, went on YouTube, took some Buzzfeed Quizzes and scrolled through tumblr for study inspo ^^) 4 PM: my at home workout for Monday!! If I decide to share my workout with you, you'll find it here. 4:15 PM: I then went showering quickly, maybe only 5 mins to get the sweat off of me. After that I typically chill until 4:30 PM. 4:30 PM: 15 Minutes of Duolingo Dutch :) I started with Duolingo dutch in summer, but I lost my motivation and didn't keep it up. Since two weeks, I'm scheduling it into my days, so I keep this habit ^^ 5:00 PM: I then typically spend one hour of my afternoon on writing revision notes for my graduation exams down. I will talk about that method I use very very soon, especially for my german folks out there ^^. Today I spend half an hour on English and the other half an hour on Geography. 6:00 PM: After that scheduled hour, I cleaned up my desk (which took me about 1 Minute lol) and then I set myself a timer of ten minutes and just tidied my room and tried to accomplish as much as possible, since I am a quite chaotic and messy person. My room never looks perfectly cleaned up, and you will find dust in my room, but I do this to not completely drown in Chaos ^^ 6:10 PM: After that I sat down and wrote the first half of this haha, I decorated my BuJo, planned and wrote a bit on my novel (that I just write for fun haha), played with my sister (she's nine and she's lovely *-*) and then I tested my brother (12) on his english vocab. Around 7:45 PM: I prepared dinner with my Dad and Sister, we had bread, butter, cheese, salami, carrots, tomatoes, mushrooms, apple slices, grapes and chocolate bars for dessert. We then placed all that on our living room table. 8:15 PM: We all sat in front of the TV and had dinner. This is normal for us on Mondays, since its some kind of weird tradition for me, my siblings and my parents to watch Inspector Barnaby on Monday nights while having dinner. 9:45 PM: My sister and my brother were send to bed, like every monday, and me and my parents watched the second episode of Inspector Barnaby. 11:15 PM: I went straight to bed after that episode, because it's not in my normal sleeping pattern and I was reeeeally tired.
