HSC/VCE Stress

Hey Guys!


Soooooo some of you guys have requested advice on the HSC/VCE and how to deal with the stress of it all. Now as someone who is utterly freaking out about their exams in two weeks *heavily breathes* I thought it would be great if we had a lil chat about it.


Okay so I totally know how all you stress heads are feeling right now, if anything I am the biggest stress head you’ll find, but I’ve got some tips to help you beat that heavy weight on your chest:


1.       WATER, WATER, WATER! Okay I cannot stress how important hydrating yourself is, especially in high pressure situations. Water is the key to everything! Got a pimple? Drink water and that bitch will be gone before you can say “tupac lives” Stressing out? Water will wash away the pain!


2.       Motivational walls. I’ve found that having motivational pictures dotted around my room really help. They remind me of who I am and who I want to be! It keeps me wanting to strive for achievement and most importantly they remind me not to give up. This is our time to shine and ain’t nobody got time for giving up.


3.       Healthy food. I am the first one to run to unhealthy food, I pounce on that shit like it’s nobody’s business (terrible I know) However  I’ve found recently that improving my diet and substituting my hungry jacks for a fresh and nutrient filled meal has really given me the energy boost I’ve needed. Grains and vegetables are a must and don’t forget the protein, lamb, chicken or turkey whatever you want. Also including exercise into your daily routine gets you feeling more energised and really helps to give you the kick-start you need!


4.       Herbal teas/ green tea. Okay when I first tried green tea I felt like I was drinking Satan’s wee, that stuff was nasty, but the more I drank the more I fell in love. Green tea has so many benefits from clearing up your skin to speeding up your metabolism, it works wonders!


5.       SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! Sleep is so damn essential you wouldn’t believe. Experts say you should be getting a minimum of seven hours of sleep a night. Your body needs this time to recuperate and repair.  Trust me the more sleep you get, the more your body will thank you. Try going to sleep around the same time every day, so that your body falls into a routine!


6.       Most importantly, love yourself. You are fabulous and you can do this! You’re gonna ace those exams, don’t stress yourself out. Take time out here and there, too much stress will only make you forget what you’re doing!


This is your last year of school, take the bull by the horns (figuratively of course, please don’t go out and grab a bulls horns) and enjoy yourself. Kick those exams in the butt and believe in yourself you boss ass biatch!
