How to balance kpop fangirling and studying???
You have tons of school requirements, exams, homeworks, papers, etc. In short, lots of stuffs to do for the rest of the day or week. So you try to do time management to lessen the loads you have. You wake up one morning feeling motivated to finish those requirements...
BUT ALWAYS ENDING UP IN FRONT OF YOUR LAPTOP OR PHONE WATCHING KOREAN SHOWS, SCROLLING FOR UPDATES, DYING WHEN THERE'S SLOW INTERNET CONNECTION, FANGIRLING IN SHORT.
And then you look at the clock, it's already late at night. AGAIN, another 'not so productive day' was made. Ending up cramming all the school stuffs in one night.
OH YES, THAT WAS ME. I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN HERE IN THIS SITUATION BEFORE AS A FANGIRL. (OTL)
So how can I manage/balance my fangirling and studying????
Answer: DISCIPLINE (yeah, as simple as that.)
It has always been 'discipline'. The hard part is, how to discipline ourselves???
D- Do your school stuffs before kpop stuffs
Would it be so relaxing if we fangirl without worrying about our unfinished school requirements?
I- Internet while studying IS A NO NO.
I'm 99% sure that once you open a tab in your browser, you can't resist to open your fan account/ youtube/ dailymotion/ twitter/ tumblr to check your bias so yeah stay away from temptation. I'm sure there are books around you that can help you in studying. Books are your best friend in studying, remember that :)
S- Start a study plan.
If it's weekend, make a study plan the night before to organize your school loads.
C- Confidence is the key
Always be positive and trust yourself that you can finish all the work! Lol if you can spazz all day then you can study all day too, right?
I- Inspire yourself
Well maybe you can have your bias' photo in front of you to motivate you in studying just don't be distracted!
P- Prioritize studying over kpop
Yes, kpop is our daily life too but our life doesn't circle around kpop. We have to think about our future too. Study first before anything else.
L- Laugh it off
Don't feel so stressed about studying! Laugh it off! Kpop stars undergo hardships too before attaining success. Don't find studying as a burden, instead find it as a ladder to success.
I- Internet is A YES YES.
/okay that was so desperate/
If you're done with your school stuffs, welcome to paradise! You can spazz whenever you want just be sure not to forget what you studied or to clean up your study table.
N- Never give up
If you find yourself unmotivated in studying and want to spazz right now so badly, I'm sure you'll regret it if you spazz first. I know you'll drown in your feels while spazzing but that won't last long. Study first! WELCOME TO THE REALITY ;-;
E- Efforts will pay back
Lastly, all your efforts from studying will pay back. Getting high enough grades, better performances in school plus you get to spazz/fangirl without worries. You'll have happy parents that will like how kpop helps you in studying ^w^
So those are the the things to remember in order to balance our time as a fangirl and a student. So know how to prioritize, no internet, inspire yourself, etc.
I wish you all the best in your studies! Fighting!
