> okay so this thread is full of tips that worked really effectively on me. i& #39;m not saying that it will work for everyone as we are all different in our own ways, but i would till like to share these because i really do wanna help those who are struggling to balance both
> here are some apps that helped me a lot these past school years ;
in writing essays, i don& #39;t really depend on apps/websites that much as much because i believe that making them yourself makes the essay a lot more sincere and the whole vibe of the essay is just you, yk?

> studying ;
whenever i study i make sure i have lots of water and some snacks with me. i also listen to calming music to help me focus and to block out all the noises surrounding me.

i usually do thirty minutes of studying and writing notes on the given topics/modules and take thirty minute breaks in between. "why thirty minutes? isn& #39;t that time consuming?" well, it may be time consuming but i noticed that i work more productively-

- when i do so. my brain isn& #39;t that stressed as i give it rests in between. drinking lots of water and staying hydrated is also really important.
> taking notes ;
whenever i take notes,i like writing them down instead of typing it because it helps me remember the lessons better. i start it off by writing the topic at the top and continue bye writing the subtopics and the notes for each of them.

i also color code my notes for each topic (ex. above) again, i am not saying that everyone should write their notes like that. i am only sharing what works most efficiently and effectively on me.

> doing projects ;
okay so i have a really weird tendency of trying to do as much projects that i can and often do all nighters for it. i do not recommend this as it can be really tiring, but it& #39;s how i get my work done. (tbh i don& #39;t rmb a time i did them one by one)

> doing projects (individual) ;
i like these ones because you can do anything you want with the concepts. before i make the project, i usually type out my ideas in the notes app first then start making small steps to finish it (eg below)

> doing projects (group) ;
okay so this is when things can get messy because one groupmate doesn& #39;t want to do anything, or there& #39;s always one who tries and does everything. when doing group projects, i pick out the tasks i want to do and leave the others for my groupmates to-

-choose from (i& #39;m mean right, hehe /j). after we all finished our individual tasks, we check each other& #39;s work and give constructive criticism to each other. we do this in order to have the best output that we can. after that, we put our work all together and submit it asap.
- we like submitting it early as it gives us less things to worry about. (doesn& #39;t mean that u should do it the same day it was given if the due date is in three weeks though, that& #39;s just brutal)
> keeping up with both ;
okay so here& #39;s the whole point of the thread. y& #39;all know that i& #39;m always active as fuck on twt, but here& #39;s how i keep up with both

> do your schoolwork first. there& #39;s no later or tomorrow. it& #39;s best to finish them as soon as you can. i personally will also take this tip as i can get lazy as fuck sometimes and just lie down in bed all day long.
> if you can, delete your sns / game apps while you& #39;re studying to avoid distractions and just keep the apps you use to listen to music. i do this everyday,, it& #39;s tiring, but it helps me focus more.
> don& #39;t force yourself too much. i keep telling this to myself these days as schoolwork keeps piling up. if you can& #39;t go on and work anymore, rest first. resting and sleeping is important because you aren& #39;t going to be able to function properly if you& #39;re tired.
> rest if u need it :( pls rest. you& #39;ve been working so hard and you deserve it.
> if you& #39;re studying and taking a break and going on sns while you& #39;re on break, try to put a timer/time limit. if you take 20 min breaks for example, u can alot half of that to going on twt to catch up w stuff and the other half to maybe eat/drink water/close your eyes first
> if you have a tendency of falling asleep,, try to not slouch and straighten your back instead. if you& #39;re reading your modules, don& #39;t lie down in bed. you can also drink coffee (only if you want to though, some ppl don& #39;t like coffee)
> what if there& #39;s a live/mv/merch drop? what am i gonna do?
okay, so this is heavily based on time zones. we have the possibility of having classes or it being late at night or maybe even really early in the morning. tbh, i also stay up late just to watch them, but-

- if you can and are patient enough, it& #39;s okay,, you can still watch the replay. nothing about you being a fan changes that. you need to rest :( if you& #39;re in class, then it& #39;s also okay. i& #39;m also telling this to myself because duh? it& #39;s live! i wanna witness it live! well-
- i won& #39;t force you if you wanna see it (bc i do too tbh) but if its rlly late in where u are alr, pls get some rest :( you deserve it and your body needs it.
- if it& #39;s an mv or a merch drop,, idk what to say abt these bc i also have a problem w staying up late for them JDDJDHJSSJ so if u have any tips pls qrt so others can also see thank u <3
> okay that& #39;s the end of the thread i think,, if i think of any more, i& #39;m just going to add them,, sorry if it didn& #39;t make any sense i& #39;m really not good at explaining things HHHHNHHGH
> in case no one has told u today, i am so proud of u ! u are working so hard and doing your very best,, i know you can do it. just hang in there. i love u ! plsplspls take rests if u can. stay safe and take care mwah
