Failure

Recently, I found out that I failed miserably in both of the tests that we’ve had so far in Trigonometry. *I almost burst into tears* Somehow my brother fond out and the tests haven’t been returned but it’s a sure thing. Right now I’m panicking because I am sure that when those tests reach my hands, I will break down in the classroom.

I would like to say that I’m not the type of person who would fail consecutively. I absolutely hate failing and it physically hurts me when I fail. Anyway I have a quick tip I have for all of the people how may feel the same way I do because failure is inevitable.

My tip is to remember the pain that you feel when it hits you. Don’t try to push it away. Don’t forget that feeling in the pit of your stomach because that feeling can be useful. You can take that feeling and use it as motivation to do better and to work harder.

Of course, it is important to learn from your mistakes. That’s what we all hear but sometimes we tend to forget the promises we make to ourselves. It’s important to remember. *I’m really starting to get repetitive*

Anyway, this is a short post that I have for you guys today. I love you all so so much! Thank you for the support! 🙂

Self-motivation.

Okay guys. First of all I have a little confession to make.

When I first read the quote “Some people give up. Some will try.” I thought that it meant that some people give up and some will try to give up. It makes perfect sense right? And no, I am definitely not trying to be funny but that would be a good bonus though if you know what I mean. *wink*

Anyway back to the topic at hand. Self-motivation. What does it mean to motivate one’s self? I know that there is a good chunk of people that rely on other things to serve as their “motivation”. May it be a celebrity or a picture that you’ve found on tumblr , every time you see it you’ll get motivated. I am pretty guilty with doing that. 

I have nothing against that because everybody has their own thing that works for them. I respect that. Here’s my opinion though.

Wouldn’t it be more effective if we motivated ourselves in a snap. I think being able to have the self-control to work harder towards your goal without anyone reminding you is the best thing possible. Yes, seeing other people do better or seeing other people actually achieve the goal could help in that but isn’t it better if it’s purely within yourself? 

This is just a little blurb I’ve decided to write on because I’ll be needing self-motivation for the months to come. Hope this has helped or at least has entertained you!

School’s Out

Hey guys! Exams are finally over and school is practically out. We just have to go back for closing ceremonies  and to pick up our report cards.  That’s another story to be told though. 

Anyway, there are a couple of things going on in my life and I am going crazy with worry. The college entrance exam review frenzy is among us and I am feeling really insecure about getting into my dream school. It is literally driving me nuts and making me paranoid. 

Well, I am thinking of getting a haircut. My hair is already 3/4 down my back and as much as I love long hair, it’s gonna summer and it’s gonna be hot. Besides I could grow my hair out during the year just in time for the graduation and senior pictures. I think I might go for the cut that goes just below the shoulders. Suggestions please 🙂 

Actually I think that’s what I have for now. Next posts will be about insecurities that may or may not be part of the Lonely Hearts Club. If you don’t know about that then feel free to check it out by checking out my page. *smiles*

 

Bye for now!

Sorry it isn’t much of a post. 🙂 

Suggestion please! [book related]

Hello there!

I am in need of your book suggestions. I am looking for really good reads for teens that may or may not be life changing. Something soulful and maybe in the self help category. I just want to start reading books like that to kind of kick off the new year. Feel free to tell me! 🙂 Thank you! 🙂

My Inspirational Routine

Before I start I would like to explain that by inspirational routine, I mean my writing routine. Even though it is a little weird to have one of these routines, I have one. Anyway, to be honest, this routine doesn’t follow a schedule, when it happens, it just does but these are the steps I follow.

The first thing I do is I grab something nice to drink. Again, it really just depends on my mood but i always just end up with some nice raspberry tea, unless I feel like mixing it up a bit.

Then I grab an elastic or just a hair tie and I make sure that my hair is up in a messy bun. I make sure that it’s a bun and not a ponytail because it makes me feel like a teenager. I don’t think I’m making much sense but that’s what I do.

After I have my drink and my hair fixed, I go onto Wattpad and gmail because I write at least one chapter with at least 1000 words because I like reading lengthy chapters so I think that being a hypocrite would just suck and it would just be like getting pissed off at myself. Plus, the feeling of achievement is amazing.

Then after I finish with the chapter, I send it off to my editor who does an impeccable job at what she does. I usually use gmail to send it to her and once I get it back, I just put it on the website, even though I still haven’t posted any of them yet but I will soon. 🙂

Then after all that I move on to my blog before I get lazy again. By this time, I already have to fill up my mug again but it’s all worth it. I then usually write about anything or just what I’m feeling. I think I might start some vlogging/blogging infusion kind of thing. I’ve been obsessed with vlogging recently that I just wanted to try blogging but doing it differently. Or just blogging about topics that people usually vlog. It seems really messy and weird but it isn’t. I promise. 🙂

After all of that I usually just stuff my face with food or fall asleep. Sometimes I would then start studying but that;s on a rare occasion. Speaking of studying, the prep steps are also the same things I do before studying! I am obsessed! Most importantly though, I feel productive after everything. 🙂

I’m really sorry for the short post but I think I might be getting sick. Gonna rest!

Bye!

Beach Vacation!

Hey there interneters! (Is that a weird shortcut? Any ideas? My suggest box [comments] is now open!)

Anyway I am back at school because the week long break is over. I can’t help but feel like a part of me has been ripped away from me and I have now lost the freedom to wake up when I want to and be able to just laze around. I did mention in my previous post that I will be going on a beach vacation. 

Then I thought, why not blog about it? since it would be a lot of fun to write about the amazing experience that I had whilst there at the beach. But before getting into the more exciting parts, let’s start from the beginning shall we?

The night before we were scheduled to leave for the beach, we had to be in bed by 10 pm at the latest but being the little rule breaker that I am, I fell asleep at midnight. Which sucks for me because we were scheduled to wake up at 5:00 in the morning. The worst part is that I knew exactly what time we were to leave and exactly when I should have gone to bed. That folks is the very first mistake I made from the trip.

Now inn the morning after getting ready and putting on my outfit, I checked if everything that I wished to bring is in my backpack and all my photography essentials are in their little camera bag. Although it was all pretty heavy ( the cameras were heavier than my clothes) it was all really worth it because I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

So with my trusty baby pillow in hand, I got in the car where my brothers and sister were already bickering. At that moment all I could think was : This is going to be a long ride. And it was because we were in the car for two long hours. It was fun though because all the cows that we passed by looked weird and skinny but fat at the same time. I’m probably I sound crazy right now.

Soon we got to the port and dropped off  the car at the little place where they look after your parked car whilst you’re on vacation. We then got on board the ship and sailed the ocean. It was very relaxing. The salty air just whipping through my air and the  island were all very beautiful. There were also many tree houses there but they were all modern and the size of mansions. Rich people. Anyway after two more hours, we arrived at the resort and the first thing I noticed was: There were lots of hot foreign guys just doing guy stuff there. 

Before I get into the guy stuff though I’ll just explain the living situation that we were going to have for three days. It was a nice apartment styled “room” with two floors. They had air-conditioning and everything you would find that you would probably need for a couple of days (except food). The thing that I love about the resort is that it is secluded. It’s beautiful but only a few people go there therefore it’s more relaxing. The perfect place for shy people.

You guys know me. If you don’t then I’ll tell you this now , I am a sucker for handsome guys and just really attractive guys in general. Therefore when I laid my eyes on German, Greek and Denmark guys who were shirtless and at the beach. I died and went to hotness heaven. I think I’ll make a separate post for this part so stay tuned!

Till next time.

 

PS. If you guys want to see pictures be sure to comment down below but I’ll probably just post pictures of the scenery 🙂

Do Girls Think Flowers are Old-Fashioned or Sweet?

Hey there smexy people! Let’s just jump into this one because I am uber excited about this particular post!

I am a really really really big hopeless romantic. I think that deep down every girl or lady out there is. I am going to come out with something, A few years back I would spend every waking moment writing in this really girly notebook about love. I would write stories and write down the perfect little conversations about random celebrities.

To me giving girls flowers would be the oldest trick in the book. At the same time I think that it is one of the simplest yet sweetest things you could do for a girl. To me it means that a guy cares about you to take the time to head to the store and pick the most loveliest flower to give to his girl or someone he wants to be his girl or maybe just a friend.

Flowers in general can brighten up someone’s day. It’s like how a vase of bright beautiful flowers can bright up even a dark grey room. Heck a single rose in a dainty vase could do the same thing.

The thing is that giving a girl flowers have a secret message in them.  Guys have to go through a lot sometimes to pick out the perfect flower for what they are feeling.

I personally have not received any flowers yet but I have in my dreams and I think that Irises are the best and cutest but that is just me.

Giving girls flowers may be a sweet gesture that can be  a little old- fashioned but it is timeless and it can make girls hearts flutter like there is no tomorrow, even if it’s doesn’t mean anything romantically. It can also bring people closer and that’s what counts right?

 

Till next time,
Adrianne 🙂

How to Study for an Approaching Exam

Hey there guys! I am currently in the middle of taking my exams but I just wanted to have another post on studying because I feel that my first one was based on my opinions and not on real facts or things that may actually be helpful. This time around, I have been researching and I have compiled this set of things to do.

1. Give yourself enough time to study.
This is really important because even though your phone or your computer is calling your name, DO NOT let procrastination get the best of you. Cramming will not benefit you in the long run. Which leads me to the next step.

2. Create a revision (review) timetable.
It is really important to budget your time so that you can cover everything that will come out because the feeling that you get when you`re sitting and taking your exams and suddenly you see something that you didn`t study for because you didn`t have time or because you didn`t know that it was included. ( Yes, I am speaking from experience on this one.)

3. Calm Down.
Now that you`ve seen how much you need to get covered, you might start doubting yourself (your willpower). Remember that you probably have some knowledge about the subject so al you need to do is polish it and maybe do some reconstruction .

4.Organize your study space.
Make sure that the lighting is just right. You don`t want them to be too dim or too bright. ( I rhymed!) Make sure your space is neat and you`ve got enough space for your materials and school stuff.

5. Rewrite your notes to help you with your memory.
I find talking to myself like I`m teaching others very helpful and just writing it down can be really helpful too. It will also refresh your memory.You`ve taken down notes some time ago and rewriting it will just be like pressing that refresh button in your head.

6. Find the right time
Make sure that you do not study when you`re tired because that will do you no good. You need to study when you feel physically `ready`. also you will most probably forget what you have learned.

7. Studying for different subjects call for different studying techniques.
If you`re studying for another language then try to just memorize and understand your study materials. Once you`ve understood, it will be easier to remember how to write it or anything like that. If you`re studying for a math test then actually do the problems and try to just get the gist of things.

7. Take breaks.
After an hour or so try to take breaks because it will be very very very appreciated and when you`re staring at your books all day you tend to stop processing thing and that is not going to be pretty. I guarantee it.

8. Review your notes.
It`s better to be safe than sorry so review and just hope for the best. You`d benefit from it and it will help you more than if you`re just going to sit around all day.

TIPS !

– Drink plenty of water

– Snack on `brain food`

– Start out by studying the most important information.

– Learn the general concepts first.

CRAMMING TIPS
I do not recommend this but sometimes you just have to.

– An apple does a better job at keeping you focused and awake than caffeine.

– Write down the key ideas/formulas on a sheet of paper and keep on studying from that sheet.

– Study from past tests, review questions, homework & review sheets.

– Since your time is limited, you have to choose what you study.

Things that I absolutely love :)

Hello there mate!

I have never tried to do a post like this before but then I have decided to give it a try. This would be like a sort of monthly favorites post but this is just a trial run. I have decided to work on this before I tackle my research paper and literature homework.

*DISCLAIMER* All of the opinions stated here are purely my own. No one has convinced me on anything and I am just doing this for fun and I am not advertising. 🙂 Also, I do not own the pictures shown below, therefore I am going to give credit to the people who do own them!

Now that that is out of the way, let’s get started!

First of all, I am in love with The Body Shop’s DUO in Floral Acai . 

The one that I have is the one on the left. When i went to the store to pick something up, as presents I bought so much that I got one for free so I picked the one that I have. The thing is that the time I was there, there wasn’t the brown one which I believe is macadamia, otherwise I would’ve picked that one instead.

Anyway, I really love this product because I absolutely hate moisturizing so I often forget about it but when I remember I just use whatever. This product has been sitting on my shelf for so long. One day, I was in a rush and the lotion was gone so I went for this one instead. Let me tell you, it was the best accident that has happened to me. It just sinks in and moisturizes you for a whole day. When i woke up, it still felt moisturized. It also leaves a slight scent that is just very addicting. You won’t be able to smell it from afar because the scent isn’t very strong but you could tell that it’s there. That is why I love this product! I give it a 4.5/5 rating 🙂

The second product is the Lancome Miracle perfume.

This was actually a gift from my aunt. I absolutely love this scent because it isn’t overwhelming and it isn’t the type that just want to tackle you to the ground and gag you from the scent. I’m nit very good at describing scents but his is just a girly floral scent that has a classy feel to it. If you know what I mean. There isn’t really a specific scent and I just love it. It lasts pretty long and it’s just perfect. I’m giving it 5/5 stars 🙂

The next product is the SMASHBOX smashing candle lipstick.

I love Smashbox, it is just one of my favorite beauty brand. I’m not really into make up but I’ve recently become interested in it. This is just a really really really cute shade but I do not really recommend it for daily use. You could use it at night if you’re going out to spice things up. I love the consistency and the packaging and that is one of the reasons why I love this brand.

The last product is the MAC GLAMGLASS in check this out

This lip gloss is okay. I haven’t been using it that much but it is average. It has a really nice scent and it’s color and coverage is good. I really have nothing much to say about this outfit but it is perfect for when you have to go out at night and you’re in a hurry, you just slab it on and POOF you’re set.

These are just a few of the things that I love. This is my first time doing this kind of post. I actually have a beauty bucket list. That is what I wish to purchase before I hit my 50’s so if anyone wants to know what is in that list then feel free to comment or message me!

 

Thanks for reading!

Toodles!
