“when you’re in university or college, nobody is gonna babysit you. there’s no bell that goes off when it’s class time. there’s no attendance. you can skip all the classes if you want to. you really just have to take everything into your own hands and make the most of your experience…everything you need to succeed is right in front of you.” —kassie isabelle

  • HOW TO: SURVIVE STRESSFUL SITUATION - COLLEGE EDITION
  • college is hard and so it (student) life: it’s ok to be tired, it’s ok even if everything seems too much. I’ve collected easy tips i’ve learnt on the way to help you all:
  • accomplish little tasks. this is way more useful than you think. What you need to keep in mind is: everything is important, even if it seems to be stupid or meaningless. Manage to study a couple of pages per day: it’s not much but a) you won’t have to study them later, which is a lot b) you’ll feel like you haven’t wasted a whole day. If you’re have a bad day and you don’t feel like studying you can still revise something: what really matter is to do something so your braind won’t tell you you have benne unproductive. Not to mention that your value is not measured by your productivity, your marks are. So, if you still can’t manage to do anything, remember that it’s only a mark: they’re your grades, not your true self, which, as I already said, is not measured by your productivity.
  • be as organized as possible. write down a realistic plan and try to stick to it: not only this will help you visualizing what you have to do, but this will also help you to remind you to get shit done instead of study stuff randomly
  • have a little chat. if you’re under pressure and it’s not only about school, you should make that little call: call your best friends, your parents, your grandparents, your brothers and sisters, your uncle - call whoever you want - just have a little chat so you can speak your weaknesses and sick thoughts out
  • breath. remember to do it as, in my experience, this is the only way yo stop panic attack or to bring you back on earth. lie down on your breath and repeat to yourself that you’ve go to stay “here and now, in this very moment”, remind yourself to breath deeply. Try to come up with a positive mantra to remind you that it’s not as bad as your mind want you to picture it
  • love yourself. you’re not a failure if you can’t manage to study, you’re not a failure if you didn’t feel like going to you class, you’re not a failure you fucked up that exam, you’re not a failure if you can’t do math, you’re not a failure if your friend made it better, you’re not a failure if you won’t pass that exam you’re studying for. you’re not a failure, no matter what, just now this.

May Masterpost Challenge: 7/20

End Goal: 20 masterposts by the end of the month

! Attention ! Thank you for your various opinions on this matter. So I tweaked a few thing. Thank You <3

 This is for all people with a uterus.

 Cramps Cures:

Ahh, period cramps, those things that feel like needles poking into your sides multiple times and like you are scooping your insides out with a knife. So nice ;;;;;;;) (Note! If you are suffering menstrual pain to the point that it is preventing you from living your daily life normally ,you need to go see a doctor. + If you’re period are missing for 5+ month or )

- Tea! Tea fixes everything. Herbal tea containing ginger can make your period more regular, peppermint helps cramps, and basil + thyme has a pain-killing effect.Green tea also helps.

- Use painkillers. Don’t overdose though. Take what you need, for me, its more of an emergency, that’s when I take painkillers. I like to pop an Advil sometime to help.

- Heat Packs. They help relieve tension press it to your stomach. Try a hot bath as well.

- Light exercise. walk a little, I know this might seem a little wtf (I mean the last thing you would probably suggest when you are in intense pain is exercising) But it works. Stretching also works.

-Do Yoga. Here is a set of yoga moves that really help in relieving cramps.These poses really help.

-Baths. Use two tubs that you cans sit in. Sit in hot water 4 3 mins. Then in cold for 1 mins. Repeat 3 times.

- If you feel so bad you have to stay at home, please stay at home! This is more important than any hw.

To Do:

- Eat food that are:

- Rich in calcium (beans + spinach)

-High in antioxidents (cherries + tomatoes + squash)

-Lean meat. (tofu + cold-watered fish)

-Vitamins. (D + E + Calcium)

-Drink 7-8 cups of water. Tracker here.

-Warm (soup is great for this kind of thing)

-get a good night’s sleep ( THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT IF YOU DON’T DO THIS IT’LL FEEL LIKE HELL THE NEXT DAY)

Stay Away From:

- Alcohol. and tobacco.

-Extensive use of caffeine. (As in downing 3 cups a day. Some of it is fine.)

-Avoid processed foods for a while, the trans-fatty acid is torture for your pain.

-Avoid cool food. (Ice cream/ popsicles/ etc.)

How to Get Stain(s) out.

Here is a mp that had helped me a lot with blood stains.

Period Tracker Apps:

Clue (ios /android) This is suppose to be a period tracker that is not pink (finally!) To begin, you enter your typical cycle + length and then it predicts your future periods. It also let you give a mini entry of the various special things about your flow. You can also set your reminders!!! My fave app tbh.

Life- It’s sleek, simple interfaces make it easy to organize. If you want to add more features you have to add upgrade to premium but even without that it is v. v. cool. + It’s only subtly pink!!!

Tech period tracker apps are very limited. And frankly I only like these two, other just looks kind of tacky or just scream IMONMYPERIOD

Misc.

@period-tips Basically a bunch of tips that is so extremely helpful !  The admin is so nice 

How to: Make a makeshift pad out of toilet paper.

- get one long strip, fold it up put it on your unmentionables, then get a second long strip, wrap it horizontally to secure the first strip.

+Other MPs

I’m so tired oml. And again, My aesthetics bj raffle + aesthetics br is still on!You can check out the rules here. Tag me with #educatier. If you have any problem/comments/other please drop by my inbox. Next mp is going to be about stationary !!!

Cheers, Kitty

College has me so fucked up. Some kid just told me that our final assignments are due in fifteen minutes and my first reaction was acceptance. I don’t even have anything to hand in, it’s worth 30% of my mark and I was just ready to embrace the void. Wasn’t even relieved when he said he was kidding. Nobody can touch this. I’ve surpassed this mortal plane
