It’s that time again that all students dread, going back to
school or university after such a memorable and long holiday and now you have
to go back to the school routine; but don’t worry its just 5 months left (you
can do it) here are 5 tips to help you get back to the Normal school routine and
kick the last 2nd semesters a**.
1. Catch up with
friends
The fastest way to beat the post-holiday blues is to get
yourself out there and spend time with your university friends and catch-up over drinks before the semester gets hectic. They are in the same
boat as you are and after being away for a few weeks, there will be tons of
stories to swap. Go for a meal or a drink, or set up weekly study session, and
you will feel normal in no time.
2. Get organised
and up-to-date
Get organised and back into routine quickly. Writing out a
list of things you need to do can help you feel organized. Whether it’s
unpacking, coursework reading, planning a study schedule or (on a more fun
note) filling your diary with important events, set aside the time to do the
things you need to. This will help you feel prepared and up-to-date before you
know it.
3. Reset your
sleeping routine
While sleeping until noon or staying up all night wasn’t a
problem over the July holidays, it’s time to readjust your sleeping patterns.
Use light to help you reset your body clock. Pull back the curtains or turn on
a lamp as soon as your alarm goes off to tell your brain that it’s morning. To
fall asleep early, put your cellphone away and dim the lights an hour before
bedtime – use the time to read a book and wind down.
4. Create a
healthy balance
Put together a simple exercise schedule to help you remain
physically healthy and mentally alert. Exercise will also help you reach a good
study life balance. Healthy eating will contribute to mental alertness, good
energy levels and general well-being.
5. Challenge
yourself
This semester, try something new. Whether it’s joining the
student club you’ve had on your radar, making new friends or taking up a new
hobby, extracurricular activities are a great way to get involved and have some
fun. In the process you’ll meet new people and maybe even develop a new skill.
Starting a new semester should be fun and not fearsome, so
take a while to stop and smell the roses… or perhaps even the smell of coffee
as you get ready for those early morning lectures!
