a common mistake i make is watching youtube videos before doing homework, and then i end up binge watching for 3+ hours lmao

[@GlamourCat1920]

CinnamonCinema Lol so true! That's what I'm doing right now so I should probably stop...

[@yxsafire9227]

[@GirlKnowsTech]

haha YES!!

[@yanibear9833]

i watch WHILE i do my homework, usually some cool instrumentals or some videos that would make me laugh whilst i work.

Last year was the year where I procrastinated everytime. I feel so tired of this, but your videos are a great motivation to me now ! Keep going, you're amazing ❤

[@Наталі-к1б]

hey lolita Yep... I feel ya I did that and I wanted to kill my self afterwards although I get good grades people be like we should be like not a procrastinator my expression is a sure no 😂

[@ksingh838]

Actually, the first of many people to say ''avoid buying too many school supplies"" always looking at studygrams and wishing I had all the things but then im just like money don't grow on trees. And I get so de-motivated but I've realised it's actually not all about the stationary it's about the effectiveness of the study. It really is just a picture perfect illusion and ain't nobody got time for that no offense to y'all.

[@morf5970]

K Singh That's so true, I wasted so much money on stationary last year because of all the charming bullet journals, stationarity and stuff I have seen on the internet, and it was one of the worst decision's of my life. I shouldn't waste so much money on that because it was not necessary, also it was taking so much time to organize them. This year I decided to become more minimalist person and I am glad I did that.

[@demihumanbre7783]

As a person that used to study aesthetically rather than effectively, I agree with you - it’s not worth it. So much time is wasted trying to perfect the look of the notes instead of studying them.

[@peachesgingersnaps8678]

hoeforwang I always feel like I am not revising enough just because my classmates have tons of pretty, perfected notes. Thanks for the reminder that it’s all about the effort rather than the aesthetic 👍🏻

[@angelbby312]

so true! for my exams, all my friends made these beautiful, aesthetic notes while i tried to make my notes simple and effective. because i focused so much on being able to study and understand effectively, i was able to get a 99% on my exam!

[@dm7626]

I wish this would get pinned tbh . I think I’m more minimalist than I used to be and it makes studying a lot easier . People figure out what they need I think for me that is a few mildliners, a binder per subject, some pencils and some pens in a few different colours, as well as paper and dividers and flash cards .

Procrastinating was my biggest mistake from last year

[@vab5798]

here's the mistake i usually make: **procrastinate everything until the last minute**

[@thecosmiccookie3815]

Mistake i made last year?? Falling for someone as usual

[@busycrying]

TheCosmicCookie totally, it diverges your attention towards your studies and just makes you emotionally invested for nothing by overall.

[@thecosmiccookie3815]

Grace Tang yea and anything that the two of you are involved in immediately becomes anxiety riddled and out of focus. That happened to me last year

[@busycrying]

TheCosmicCookie let's just hope in the new year everything goes back to square one so you can try to at least protect yourself from sadness :((

[@thecosmiccookie3815]

Grace Tang definitely. I honestly hope for the both of us~

I made the first mistake already this year and last year, I didn't even have a schedule, like, at all. I left most of my homework to the last minute and I live in England so we don't have school events like pep rallies. All of our "school events" were compulsory.

[@miraofalltrades]

I recommend slacking off when you are just really tired. For emergencies. I wrote 5, 3 page essays in a day and it was tiring so, I slept earlier and woke up earlier to finish the assignment. School is hard sometimes. It’s okay.

[@jeanniejay]

yeah,, when you’re really tired you can’t do your best on the assignment given.

[@thesilence6608]

Okay so I've been doing my homework the day it gets assigned and it's been a lot more easy to keep up and I've been taking less naps after school which makes falling asleep before 11 way easier

The mistake I did on the first day of school was being too careless/unprepared about what's next to come 😕

[@shahrzadketabollahi5496]

I absolutely love how short your videos are compared to most other KZbinrs who do similar videos ( school, self-improvement , etc). Your videos don't get off-track or talk about something for waaaay longer than it actually needs. Simple, yet aesthetic 😊. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@nicolezhang4644]

Mistakes I made last year: -procrastinating & therefore putting more stress on myself -not opening up to my classmates more -being too shy or scared to participate in school activities or clubs -staying up too late watching KZbin/Netflix, making me cranky & tired all day

wow! I just really love how simply aesthetic Jem's channel is and how useful it is too! much love ♡

[@kiira6879]

Mistake; Thinking stress was a bad thing, it’s not. It’s actually your body preparing you for your challenge, even though you MAY want to vomit. This is coping you for if something similar happens like the stressor again, you will be prepared and know how to get through it multiple times again. :)

[@semoremo9548]

Yes yes yes! When I started thinking of stress as a good thing, everything changed!

[@AI-bq8dd]

Keisha Hidalgo Riego Mercadejas i moved to a whole new country and they speak a different language... I mean I use it at home I know the really basics of the language (for writing) But I didnt know anything else. So my grades dropped a lot. From 70-80% to 40-30% (not all but most) and I’m struggling. 1 and a half years in im finally just getting used to it. My grades are slowly coming up.... My tip is to do the best you can. if you fail thats okay. Work 10000x harder next time, if you tried your hardest and still didn’t get the result you wanted, then take a breath and try a different way of studying. And if it still doesnt work ask for *help* you don’t know how much easier it is to admit that you don’t know what the eff is going on and need help. HOPE THIS HELPS ❤️❤️

[@mariakecke3624]

the best tip I can give is ask the people you are sitting next to in class ! It is a great way to talk to people and make friends and also helps a lot with understanding the school system better ( as an exchange student it helped me a lot ! ) best of luck to you 💓

[@carter...apollo147]

I started college last week and something I QUICKLY realized is that you really need to be on top of all of your assignments! I second avoiding getting complacent about your assignments but would also like to add that you should avoid becoming the student who uses their planner for one week and then stops using it the rest of the year. It's so easy to forget what assignments are due when you have so many classes!

[@kingpierce_]

a mistake i've made is being involved with drama. so my advice is: don't be involved with problematic people. if you know somebody is going to cause some problems, leave ASAP because if once you leave it for too long it gets worse. the stress builds up upon school work, you will fall behind. so keep a small group of friends that you trust and keep them for the rest of your school years. avoid people who can cause u stress.

[@jessicazayac4195]

The true hero

[@elisgeorge2420]

Last year I made the mistake of overloading my schedule. I needed the cash, and so almost doubled my hours at work. This left behind very little time after school and on weekends to actually get things done, and I found myself choosing between self-care and relaxation, and school work. I prioritised school, and burnt out completely, meaning I was slacking for a good couple weeks. This made me fall behind on notes, homework, and assignments, and the last few months of the school year were spent in a constant stress to get everything finished before the final deadline. Lets just say that I plan on reducing my work hours next year and really scheduling in those couple of hours before bed each night to relax and de-stress. The idea is that, if its o the calendar, I'll do it. Lets hope that it works.

First of all I loved everything about this video I really needed a reminder xoxo Mine were: * not reading enough * procrastinating * not making notes to come back to later on * putting too much pressure on myself * let the tiniest inconveniences destroy my mood * getting mad at myself for not being as productive as others * comparing myself to others * overthinking * sobbing * 0 confidence * not!! Sleeping !! Enough!! * cared too much rlly I was doing fine * imagine that stationary was the key to success (it isn’t) * studying the night b4 the exam (except for finals) * became a completely different person in exam season I felt like death I just wasn’t me * believed that more notes & aesthetically made flashcards = success !! (Nop) Heehaw thank you for coming to my Ted talk my tenses were all over the place

[@aliflash0]

I mad a huge mistake by not copying my notes, now I have an entire 80 page notebook of various notes to copy in my my multiple notebooks (one per subject) Now I’m in a huge mess and I have something like 20 tests in the upcoming 6 weeks and I haven’t done anything! I’m so sad bc I’m afraid I cannot study well for all. Can anyone give me an advice please? 🙏🏻

[@astrid5126]

i am so sorry i'm too late for you D: i took all my notes in one notebook but on separate pages so i could just rip them out later and put them in their respective binders. that way i didn't have to copy them or carry around a bunch of notebooks all the time. best of luck with your future studies!

[@demihumanbre7783]

Alice Brambilla The way I do it, is to concise the info into flash cards using Quizlet. It takes a while but it’s worth it, however you must do regular revision for it to be effective. Paper flash cards are ineffective as the focus is usually on making them aesthetic rather than useful and once the pile gets too high, you’ll get easily discouraged.

[@meowsav]

Some mistakes that I made were that I burned out super quickly. I tried doing everything right when I got the assignment so I could be my most productive self. It worked the first two trimesters but after that my grades started going down as well as my mental health was deteriorating. I am a lot better now and ready to be my productive self once more!

[@5941z]

"what were some mistakes that you made last year?" *EVERYTHING*

mistakes I made last year were falling way behind, not participating in school events (or trying to, I guess we were technically forced) and not asking for help as often as I should've.
