1) Clean your room/house

It’s hard to study in a messy environment, so when you really can’t focus on an assignment, spend some time cleaning up a bit. That way, when you finally feel motivated to study, your house will already be the perfect study spot.

 

2) Christmas Shopping

There’s less than a month to Christmas so get ahead on those Christmas gifts before the mall gets crazy busy. Trust me, your future self will thank you for this.

 

3) Get some Exercise

Staying healthy is important too. The exam period can mean eating a lot of junk food, so burn off some of those extra calories when you need a break from the books.

 

4) Take care of yourself

Spend a night catching up on your favourite Netflix show, do a face-mask, and relax. Stress isn’t healthy and your mental health always comes first!

 

5) Spend time with your friends

Christmas break is coming after all, which means you might not see your school-friends for at least a few weeks. Be sure to spend some quality time with them before you’re separated for the holidays.
