hey there,
i hope your exams and essays and general school mania are all going smashingly. or at least that you’re staying afloat.
this is just a PSA to let you know that aska will be out of commission starting tomorrow. i will be back when school resumes. so please, keep sending in your questions via e-mail or tweet, but just know that i won’t be able to reply until January, so if your question requires an answer before then, go bug your registrar or enrolment services about it. they will be open until December 20th because they are OFFICIAL UOFT buildings, unlike me. i’m not official. i don’t have a building.
anyway, on this sad day of parting, i’d just like to give you some advice for exams before i gtfo:
1. remember to study. seriously, i don’t know why so many of y’all need reminding about that. if you’d like to read up on my study tips, they’re right here. i sometimes get good marks, so, you know…might be worth it…
2. remember to breathe. no matter what happens, you can always recover from it, you can always move past it, and it’s never the end of your life/future/career. trust me. if you happen to fail, don’t think about it as failing, think about it as evolving into your next, improved self. and no, that was NOT a pokemon reference.
3. remember to shower. we’ve all skipped a day and not showered over exams, and that’s understandable. sometimes you have to pull that all-nighter and write your exam smelling like a wet dog. but once you’ve gone three days without it, you’ll start to bother even yourself. like, geez, dude. seriously. showers don’t need to take all that long.
on that note, good luck with all your school shenanigans and happy holidays! there may be a few posts here between now and january (assuming my foray into scheduled posts works out as planned), so keep an eye out. i’ll see all you crazies in the new year 😉
xoxo,
aska
