Exam Hell: Five Top Tips To Survive

It's hard to believe how fast time goes, how people change and how you change.
Life seems to be flying past, but all I can do is watch.

I can't believe It's been three weeks since I last posted a blog; I promised myself that I wouldn't force myself to write these blogs, I believe that these posts should come naturally and from the heart.
 But it seem so long since I wrote anything new. It feels like I am loosing track of time.

I am currently studying A-levels (I might have said this before but I'm far too lazy to check), and exam period is coming up. There is so much pressure right now, it never seems to end.
You have so much to do and you get into this state of mind where you begin to panic and get emotional over the most stupid and smallest things. 
It is quite funny actually... because I'm re-siting my AS Math exam (core 1) I'm trying to revise whenever I can. But on the Tuesday of this week, after I had came back from college, I tried doing maths revision but when I couldn't find my maths book I broke down. 
Yes, let me repeat. I broke down....over a maths book.
Soak that up, how pathetic my life is right now.
I think when you try so hard but things don't seem to fit into place you take it so personally, you begin to doubt your worth, your capability and it can make you really insecure.
And this ladies and gentlemen, is why you do not choose to do AS level maths or A-levels in general. 


So to conclude, here are five tips that should help people over the next few weeks (I hope):
1) Revise your ass off, it will come in handy later on in life
2) Stick close to your friends, exams can be tough to go through alone
3) Don't push yourself over the edge. If you don't understand something then step back for a moment and take a breath 
4) Do not choose A-level maths. 
And my last piece of advice: 
5) Smile, because life is too short to let the little things get you down
