Trick or Treat by °chanelqueen17 1 month 2 weeks ago

After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!

Not at the moment. I just had two midterms on the same day. I didn't really sleep for a few days before it. Study hard for a bit, and relax like no other afterwards.

Had a brutal midterm today. The TA was taking it with us, and even he had problems. Just brutal. It helps to talk to people whos in the same predicament. Knowing other people are suffering makes my own less torturous.

*Fyuu...h* Looks like this topic really suits my condition right now.
I have some exams right now, but that won't make me frustated.
Let's say me and my friends have prepared for the exams far before the exams get started.
Shortly, when we have exams, a good preparation is the best solution.

I just had one of my test today. To cope with stress, you can try some of these:

- take your favourite drink or food and have a cheerful mood before you try to attemp to study
- try relaxing yourself after your revision by doing your favorite things like exercising or walching anime
- have confidence in yourself. If you have studied hard, i am sure you will not fail as you really take the effort to study.
- Revise constantly to prevent last-minute revision. Last-minute revision will definitely cause your brain to burst.

The most important thing is to stay calm and have beliefs that you can do well in your paper.

I've got finals coming up next week and fortunately one is a take home exam. I think lowjiemin gave great tips on how to handle this stressful situation.

If you've studied and *understand* the material then for the most part you should do fine. Sometimes just plain memorization is required but by understanding the material, when you have a tough question, you'd be able to give a thoughtful, reasonable answer.

Best of luck to everyone!

Real good advice there. I also go along with that for some time now, and trust me, it really works. I'm currently in 1st year Uni exams, and by revising constantly (little by little, that's the good thing about constant revising, you don't have to do a huge chunk at once), relaxing and having a pretty calm mind it's been going great so far for me. I just wish my friend would listen to me and give it a try, instead he's all stressed out like mad cause he always does last minute revision p(ToT)q emoticon

I have exams coming up Thursday coming. In fact I technically have an exam to do before that because one of my professors gave us a take home final, which usually are the hardest ones you can get from him. I try not to get stressed out over exams though. If I studied enough and I actually learn the material I usually do fine, but the best advice I can give to a person who is becoming too stressed out by exams would be to take a small break. Nothing so long that you lose a lot of study time, but just enough to clear your mind before going back. Breaks can be very helpful when they are needed.

Yep but not one week. I got them 2 weeks although the exams are spread over those weeks. And my orals are a month later. Got 6 of them. Bleh.
Stress, what stress, oh you mean the shoulders locked, sleep deprivement.. yes I have that. What I do against it. First study and promise myself a nice movie/anime/manga/book etc with some nice yummy food/drinks after I studied well:D
And ofcourse while studying, take breaks. I first study 30 minutes, take a break, study 30 minutes again. Then I go to do something fun and then after a bit of time I study again, 30 minutes, break, 30 minutes.And remember to write things down, for orals speak to the mirror/friend/pet/plush toy/boyfriend/family/tree. Good luck to you too!

I'm in the midst of exams now. Have to admit that I do last minute studying, cramp all the stuff into my head before exam and then practically vomit it out during exam. After the exam, can barely remember anything. Heh.

Having exams during spring release can be really troublesome. I spent so much time watching anime. But in the end manage to control myself by telling myself that I can only watch 1 episode after I finish studying, let's say, 1 chapter. This is my motivation to study for exam. =D Oh, and having some comfort food nearby helps too!

Eeeeh, my exam period is approaching again, too. It is bad, I don't like it. We have two teachers that don't teach very well. And one of them teaches two subjcts :S
Marketing, tourism, freetime - that is it. I'm scared of these exams.
