For any of you who know me well enough, you know that I do not enjoy studying whatsoever. Mainly because I just don't know how to study effectively (any good study skills or habits I may have developed in middle school and early high school were gone by graduation day and I can't seem to find them anywhere!), though my shift in priorities over the recent years along with simple laziness and apathy toward the subject matter have all played serious roles as well in the buildup of this annoyance I have toward academics. Also, since somehow A's and B's are still somehow pulled off most of the time--I'd DEFINITELY being lying if I made you think otherwise (Haha!)--I just find that especially these days I'm too lazy to stress out too much!
Anyway, that being said, I'm happy to say that this has been me for the past three hours...
...and I've got to just keep truckin' along until my 6 P.M. rehearsal. Way too much dance history, not enough brain capacity to retain all this information, but I'm so happy to report that today's serious study session hasn't been nearly as bad as my other (infrequent) ones have been thus far this semester! By audibly singing my way through the afternoon with my music on and telling myself that while yes, it's a ton of information, but yes, I know that I DO know it better than I may believe has kept me confident, calm and happy! I'm feeling that tomorrow when I go in to take this test I'll be pretty ready to go. Either way, I can go into tomorrow knowing that I honestly put in my best effort and did all that I could to know everything about the material as I possibly could. Thanks to my terrible study habits, that's not something I feel too frequently. This will be a very nice change of pace :)
Today, academic productivity makes me happy :)
