Don't let the Mid Terms get you down!

So it's that time of the semester where the Profs. get to be as evil as they want and Halloween is still about two weeks away. It's mid term season.
They've kept me busy so I know a post is overdue. Hope all my readers out there are doing great. And for those of you with midterms out there, don't let them get to you. Just remember you are awesome and you got this!
There will be no test that will defeat you. You will show that mid term who is the boss. That's right it's you and don't you forget it.

For me, since starting a new university, it's the first time I get to see what the mid terms are like here. Some of the Profs scare you even before the first one but it turns out its not that bad. As long as you study and stay focused its not bad at all.
But my advise to you guys, don't fall behind on your studying start from day one. It's important and don't leave any assignments to back up because it could lead to many sleepless nights if you're not careful and then you'll walk into the exam like a zombie.

But if you ever need a break from all that studying just put on some music and have yourself a little dance party. Just shake away that stress and nervousness. Remember YOU GOT THIS!

If the exams get you down, take a walk outside and look at all the colours of the leaves as they change for fall and feel as relaxed as you want. Its important to get into a good mental state so you could remain at your healthy self that you started with.

Just remember this:
Life isn't about the destination, its about the journey that gets you there...

Breaking the shell

Hey everyone!
How's the year going for you? What new thing did you accomplish?
Well if you haven't done much for the year you've still got roughly 2 and a half months left to make yourself shine and be the awesome you that you can be.
Don't let anybody drag you down, break out of your shell and reach for the dreams you never thought you could ever reach.
It's that time of the year where the trees are changing colours but remember while they are changing colours they are not changing the being that they are. With every change that happens something even more wonderful is brought to light. Some days you may look at everything that happens in your life and wonder why it happens and then a few days later you see the reason for it happening.

Personally, I've found that when you release yourself from all the negativity that surrounds you and start paying attention to you, you start to see the bigger picture, the things that matter more to you and isn't that what counts?
I love helping people and I will in any way that I can even if that means I have to come out of my comfort zone. Making adjustments was a tad rough but hey you know what, when you realize that you can do it, anything is possible.
To keep myself occupied I've joined a program at school where I get to be a class representative and help my fellow classmates connect with the professor. I never thought that I would be that person to get up in front of a large room and make announcements. I've never liked public speaking but how will you ever get good at something if you never practice? My sister told me it's a good thing that I get to come out of my shell and stop being that behind the scenes kind of person. So if she can believe in me, why shouldn't I believe in me?

You never know if you're good at something unless you try, try, try!
Remember the only thing confining you are those walls that you built yourself.
Don't be shy, just spread your wings and fly.
