One down, two to go! Exams are not all that bad after you shoot the first one down ;P Every semester is the same old story for me. I take a couple days off work, quarantine myself with books and chocolates...overwork my brain, take a deep breath and sit for exams. In the begining, it seems like a loongg 2 weeks but after the first paper, the rest passes real fast. Maybe it's just me. Studying for exams is no fun business, so here's some survival tips to make your exam week more pleasant:
1) Always make sure you plan for 'after exams' vacation, so you have something to look forward to
2) Stock up on chocolates (or other favourite munchies- to keep yourself awake and entertained)
3) Have your bestfriend stand by to hear you whine and repeatedly answer your 'why did i get myself into this mess' question.
4) Drink lots of water...not only it's good for your health and skin, you have a valid reason for toilet breaks
5) Leave your yahoo messenger on (to know that you're still part of the world)
6) Take funny pictures of yourself and laugh out loud (only when really really bored)
* Thanks Kok Pin for the tip!
7) Change your studying position every 3 hours
8) Take time off to do your favourite things (it won't kill you to enjoy yourself while studying)

Happy Exam week!
