How not to study for exams or how I ended up doing nothing for two weeks
Or at least that’s what I thought
The last months were harsh for me like for most students: a bunch of exams, cold rainy days plus corona lockdown don’t seem to be a nice combination. As a result, I was left with a feeling of emptiness and dissatisfaction for not being productive enough. Sounds familiar to you? So I ended up doing the most natural thing in that case — nothing. And surprisingly it wasn’t even nearly as critical as I thought!
The ways that bring you to exhaustion during studying
How did I end up feeling so low?
It’s already been a year since the corona happened to us and to be honest I was lucky enough to avoid almost any negative effects of it and even found a good side of the pandemic. Yes, as you can already guess I’m kind of an introvert, so staying mostly at home and rarely seeing my friends was just fine to me. I kept myself busy with studying, a part-time job, and side projects, so there was no time for boredom.
Even during cold days when normally my mood is below average, it wasn’t that bad this winter. Whether thanks to vitamin D supplements or unusually snowy days for Germany, but my holiday mood was just right, and I was feeling excellent till February… Yes…
