Hello there(:

Exams are around the corner! Well, we got some notes about studying from school and just wanted to share it, as well as what a friend shared.

TIPS and other useful things
- Pray before studying -- commit it to God, for His glory.
- rest well --> clear mind
- too much anxiety and unmanaged stress has the potential to affect us emotionally, physically and psychologically--> good management. This include what you eat, getting enough sleep, exercise and leisure (not too much though ;D)

- "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. " Phil 4:4-7

- remind yourself of what you hope to achieve

- use methods that help you remember (eg mapping, acronyms, analogies)

- if you're feeling anxious, talk to God, parents or someone you know. Talking to a friend just as nervous won't really help..

- pray before the exam!

from the sparked movement blog:
A Student Prayer
Lord, grant me a quiet heart,
Before the examinations start.
Lead me to use my leisure hours,
To reinvigorate my powers.

My mind from daydreams liberate,
Give me the will to concentrate.
From all distractions set me free,
That in my studies I may be
A student with a sole intent,
To make my work a sacrament.
From my faint heart in love expel,
All failure, fears that there in dwell.

And from my pillow drive away,
All dark forebodings of the day.
Help me in faith to rest so deep,
That I may have untroubled sleep.

While notes and subjects I prepare,
May I not lose my zest for prayer.
And may I not forget to look,
For daily guidance in Thy Book.

In quietness, confidence and peace,
May I have quick and sure release.
From needless fears and apprehension,
From outward strain and tension.

So may examinations find,
Each one alert in heart and mind.
Thus inward joy and peace possessing,
May examinations prove a blessing.

JIAYOU GUYS! (:
study hard and don't forget QT ;D
