11-06-2019: my head's a mess

It's been only 3 days now since my exams started. But it feels like 2 weeks. Weeks of preparation and evenings of studying and now I can finally say that my final exams have started.

It's been one hell of a ride to get here!

Normally I don't feel this way.

Seems like I have been preparing myself much better this time. I want to prove myself, my parents (and my teachers) what I'm capable of.

But still... It's a lot! Studying all the stuff I learnt from January till now. It's not an easy task.

Math, history, biology, physics, geography,...

Everything is turning in my head and has become a web of knowledge. It's like one long string that I tied up in my head and I need to find the right end to answer the question.

Only 8 days left and summer can finally start! I can be outside the whole day and do whatever I like.

Because there is no one to judge me or no voices in my head saying I need to get back to my desk. I will be my own 'time boss'. We'll be going to Greece and have a lovely time all together! And most importantly, I will be heading north, to Denmark!

A little advice for all the messy study heads:' You get what you work for, not what you wish for.'

Starting a new month also says: turning over a new page in my bullet journal. Scrolling through Pinterest and searching through all of my stationary stuff to find something that matches that month's colour scheme.

I always try to make time to plan out my month and today I really felt like I was allowed to get creative. Sometimes I use lots of trackers: habit trackers, mood trackers, spending trackers, sleeping trackers,... and sometimes I don't. Depends on my mood I guess.

For this week, I am trying to keep up with some little things. I'll try to write down something I was grateful for today and I'll track my mood. I think it will help me to keep my head up while all the studying.

I'm glad I got some time left today. Feels like I'm going to rock June 2019!

Here we are! Ready for a new chapter! I'm so excited to see how this will turn out. I always make these impulsive decisions and don't think of the consequences, but we'll see.

Actually, I don't even have time for this, because on Thursday my final exams are starting.

The last exam periode I will ever have as a high school student. It sounds so crazy!

But then summer will come and I have plenty of time to relax and do whatever I feel like.

Most importantly, I will prepare myself for my stay in Denmark. In August, I'm heading to Helsingor! I'm already making dozens of plans in my head about everything I want to do, while I'm there.

There is still much time! First focus on those freaking exams!

love, E
