How to use your study holidays effectively

Are you mad at ‘who ever is responsible for being too generous to give more holidays than required’ ?
Are you afraid that you will die out of boredom before you even start pretending to study?
Are you feeling incapable of pretending to study for people who hold greater concern for the invaluable holidays than you do?

The following clauses are exactly what will release you from the crisis that you have been dealing with.
1. To wake up at the desired time, set your alarm. When it rings, hit the snooze button and bury your head into the soft pillow so you cannot hear the alarm again. When it rings again, hit the snooze button once more. Oh wait, you are smarter than that! Why don’t you hit ‘turn off’?!
2. After you wake up, curse the weather. Greet the day with all those swear words that are a significant part of your vocabulary. Even if it is hot outside at least you are quite at peace.
3. Remember that these holidays are for preparation? Plan a time-table. Start with a draft. Review it. Create a new draft hoping that it is better than the first. Repeat attempts towards preparing the perfect time-table that will get you through your holidays. Try and try till you succeed. You will soon realize that with each attempt the time-table gets better.
4. Open that page of your text book that you had planned to study. After having read two sentences, yawn. After five more sentences, yawn again. Walk to the door of your room, latch it from within, switch on the air conditioner (if people ask you why the door is locked, the air conditioner is always a safe reason), lie down on the bed and close your eyes. Proceed with Step 1.
5. It is quite a boon that the most fascinating programmes are telecasted during summer. The Barclays’ premier league, The Indian premier League, the UEFA for instance. When you are bored of sleep, this is the perfect way to rejuvenate that longing desire within you to study, sleep again.
6. Do a lot of foreboding on how your dedication toward academics has perished to provide leeway for constant entertainment, repose.
7. Discuss the cause with like species and seek comfort in their revelations (they will let you believe that you are better off than them. You made a time-table and they are still trying to get out of bed and have their body supported on their vertebral column!)

By the time you have implemented the above mentioned steps, you would have found that your holidays have passed without you having dealt with an ounce of boredom.

Statutory Warning- After having followed the suggestive clauses, you will realize that the period of study holidays has expired. You will tend to panic, experience anxiety, frustration and find the need to sue the (wise and attractive) author of these clauses. The author has thus preferred to remain anonymous but has suggested that you DO NOT WORRY about failing your exams and feel comfortable to refer to her passage titled ‘Failure is a stepping stone to success’ \m/.

Five Thoughts...Today

There is always a choice before making a decision…The choice is never a matter of life and death…Be logical and not sentimental when making the right choice…You have only two kinds of consequences…Happiness and less happiness…so it doesn’t really matter at all :p :p

I saw an old lady carrying a basket of flowers today…I see her everyday actually…she always limps…I feel sorry when I look at her…I show sympathy…but I shouldn’t…from her face I can read that she is confident still and has more pride than most people…despite the age, she stands on her feet and sells flowers for a living…I’ll make sure that in the future I always hold my head up high, even during the worst of circumstances.

Goals are necessary to make something out of yourself…my goal has always been to be a successful, rich woman…most importantly recognized….but I changed my goal today…my goal is to be a happy person…I am not sure of what that means right now…but I’ll soon find out :)

I am in love again…It hurts when you love somebody and he is nice to you but doesn’t feel the same way about you…It hurts even more when he is mean to you and you still cannot hate him…your friends give you plenty of reasons why he doesn’t deserve you but you give yourself plenty of reasons why you don’t deserve him…And yet at the end of the day love feels good because it is probably the only thing that keeps you going.

My University Exams are shortly due…I remember the way I studied for my board exams when I was in tenth…man, I worked really hard…I remember the way I studied for my board exams when I was in twelfth…I worked hard but lesser than I did in tenth…And now, I wouldn’t even say that I am working hard…I have not been more distracted…It isn’t just me, most people my age feel the same way…I just hope I realize how important my academics are to my parents, how much a good score in my exams makes them happy…I hope I study the way I am supposed to.
