Motivation
Currently in DESPERATE need of some motivation to get me through the daily 3 hour slogging sessions under the void deck. I penat until cannot penat already, and I need a list of things to look forward to please.
Things that I get to look forward to after the shitty exams:
1) BATAM TRIP!!!!!!!!!
2) No more using my brain until want to pecah
3) 100% FREEDOM - no classes, no study seshes, no constant worrying about exams
4) Kita Suka Design rebranding into Bijou, including a new website, a new logo, a new everything and new stuff
5) Resuming of rock-climbing with the boss!
6) Speaking of rock-climbing, LEVEL 1 certification!
7) Possible collab with a customer aka new friend hehe
8) Being alottttt closer to receiving my degree than I was the day before exams end
9) Going out on dates with the fiance and being able to truly melawa and enjoy myself
In the midst of panicking over my upcoming paper on Monday (which I'd failed TWICE before this), I suddenly felt hopeless. My mind was asking me why the hell I was still bothering to study when I'd already failed it twice and there's no guarantee that I'd pass this time round. I could hear my brain telling me I might as well just give up now. This is all SETAN I tell you
But I refuse ok I REFUSE to admit defeat. With hard work, determination and alot alotttt of prayers, insyaAllah comes rewards. If not now, rewards will come later in many forms. So right now I just need to be strong and stop listening to all the setan2 telling me I should give up on my dreams. SETAN KAU DIAM K

The rants of a struggling student
So... my exams are around the corner (next Monday to be exact!) and I have yet to accomplish anything great. So far it seems that I am only able to tackle 1 chapter per day. That's 2 hours of studying just to accomplish 1 chapter eh!
Of course I'm getting a bit stressed, what with all the other duties I am tasked with, and the fact that I don't have a proper study space for now (nenek & maid are sleeping over at my place these few weeks). I've resorted to studying outside - void deck, library - and strangely, it seems more effective!
Perhaps tomorrow I shall study at the void deck la eh. I NEED to get at least 2-3 chapters done by tomorrow! AT LEAST!
Luckily I took leave on both Monday and Tuesday (both exam days) because I can foresee a whole lot of mugging. I don't know why, but the sight of my textbook just gives me a bad headache and makes me want to dump it aside. Pfft.
This is the status of my studying:
Monday (PSY205)
- Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4 DONE!!!!
- Still have chapters 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 to go!
Tuesday (PSY107)
- Study Unit 1 (Chapter 1&2), Study Unit 2 (Chapter 1&2), Study Unit 3 (Chapter 1&2) to go!!!!
- Mati la aku..
The shitty thing is that I really, really want to start on PSY107 by this Thursday, but my irritating slight-OCD brain wants me to go in order. Meaning, I die2 have to finish studying for PSY205 before I can start on PSY107. Today already Tuesday and I'm only up to Chapter 4 - how to study 5 chapters in 1 day in order to start on PSY107 on Thursday la sia?!
Ok takpe. I need to chill. I'm hoping God will give me the strength and the mental capacity to continue such intense studying. I've mugged before; I can do it again. Other than mugging, I am going to use up ALL my free time for studying. This is important k. I CANNOT GIVE UP. My degree is so close yet so far!!!
So this is what I plan to do:
1) Read my textbook/notes whenever I get the chance (ie, waiting at the bus stop, etc)
2) Download the PSY107 study guide into my Google drive and read it on my Note whenever I can, just to give myself a headstart
3) Pray ALOTTTT
Another thing that I find really annoying is the constant headache that I'm getting while studying. Headaches, you have disappeared for more than 2 months, so why is it that you decide to come back NOW?! I'd almost forgotten what a migraine felt like, until it came back today to haunt me. 2 Panadols didn't do anything at all sia!
I will reallyyyy need to study my ass off tomorrow and complete my 5 chapters. NO MATTER WHAT. Because no matter what, I am starting PSY107 on Thursday, and getting my damn degree next year!!!
InsyaAllah, AMIN.
