My Frantic Final Year :'D? | enhaluvr's GYG Journal (23-24)

So excited!!!

Your thread is so kyuteeee, I'm so excited ৻(•̀ ᗜ •́ ৻)⊹｡₊*⊹.˚

THANK YOUUUU. I'M HONOURED. I've always wanted to make one after following yours~
Let's pray I get into uni just like you! #rolemodel #myinspo

In 2022 i stayed up until 3 or even 4 am sometimes. Sometimes in 2021 and 2020 too. but wow that is ann insanely tight schedule. i'vew never woken up at 4am in my life. if you can keep this up then sure. but watch out burnout - it happened to me and it destroyed me...

...Make sure you don't screw up. but you can always take a break in lunch or something. so y'know, if you have the motivation to do so, go right ahead.

Ahaha~ Thank you, how #insightful !!! Truth be told, I've not actually managed to wake up at 4am this week at all :'D. It's more of a goal than reality rn... #lovesleepinglate
(9｀･ω･)9 ~ I'll try to keep up the motivation and not screw up though, thank you bro

What's the use of having a schedule if you can't keep it up? Make a schedule that is difficult yet you can keep up. Otherwise you may start thinking "what's the point?" and procrastinate again.

How late do you sleep? Remember, small changes that are kept are much better than big changes that are not kept.

You're so right.
I think I made the schedule thinking I could keep up with it but it's not working out that way in reality. :'D

My sleep schedule is more unstable than my internet connection rn tbh.
Yesterday, I slept at 1am. The day before... I slept at 5am. The day before the day before? I slept at 9pm.
So, I think, maybe I should start fixing my sleep schedule before trying anything else.
Thanks for the tips again tho, and I'll be sure to check your blog for any more updates ~

Maybe I'll make a few amends to my study schedule while I'm at it.
I'm sadly more of a dreamer than I am a "take-action" person.

i knew i recognised your username when you commented on my new blog - i literally just saw this earlier! and the formatting is SO PRETTY OMG

might steal it-

Start small and make tiny changes over time. That's how you'd eventually get to it. I know it's difficult but if you can study for 1 more minute and keep that up for 2 months that's better than studying for 2 more hours for one day and then failing to keep a schedule.

You need to set up an alarm, use 1focus to block the web to stop late night browsing habits, etc. and maybe sleep at a consistent schedule, one which allows you to do what you want. I suppose you can sleep earlier by a few minutes a day, or several.

No problem for the tips. Which AH are you doing? I don't haave much experiencew with scottish system but got accepted for stuff early so i could advise a little bit?

You really need to amend that schedule - it is too rushed for you. It may lead to burnout if you do manage it but not able to keep it up, or even more procrastination. If so... you need to be conservative in what you can do for the time being (compared to expectations) because your expectations are too high.

I was in your position. Often in life you need to force yourself to do it. Maybe you should see a doctor for your executive function difficulties. I did see one, while treatment hasn't started yet, at least you can see if there is a medical, psychological reason for your procrastination - or even a disorder behind it.
