Taking Breaks Is Essential To A Productive Study Session

Taking breaks is essential to a productive study session

Take a break. You'll waste more time trying to process information with a tired brain than you'd "waste" taking a brain to clear you mind and help the information settle.

After an exam, I've always found it hard to get right back into studying, even if it's for another course (maybe even worse when doing a big switch between unrelated courses).

I have a golden rule of not studying during exam days - not before the exam (it only makes me more anxious and less focused) and not after the exam (brain is mush at that point).

3/6 exams to go

I highly recommend it.

Life lately:

Studying after duty because we have exams every weekend again

Went through Something but we are moving from it now

Currently in OB rotation now! I’m still adjusting.

Emotionally, I’m getting better. I’m trying to take care of myself more.

Life has been hard lately but one step at a time, one task at a time.

the things that bring me the most joy are the simplest: the feeling of climbing in to my own bed after a long day. the smell of coffee. a stranger being kinder than i expected. waking up to the sound of rain. the sound of a loved one's laughter. these simple joys are all i need.

Absolutely adorable

Will try soon!

study tip:

dress up in a nice dress and do your makeup and pretend you're going on a date with the study material. I like having candles and fancy snacks

i'm trying to strike a balance between complaining and uh... not complaining but it's so hard😭 civil procedure has come back to bite me in the ass. it was my lowest grade in law school and one of the densest/most abstract subjects i've encountered, so i am absolutely terrified and shaking in my boots. i'm staying positive, however, and will not let it crush my spirit !!!
