“How To”

    I want to say that I’m not stressing over finals but I know thats a lie. I just recently done my Humanities exam last Thursday. I was just so nervous actually more anixous than nervous because I wanted to get it over with. I wanted to apply everything that I recently studied on the test. Once that was over with I was relieved that I knew everything on the test and I left no question unanswered. That was only 1of 4 test that I needed to take. I know when the day comes to take the test I’ll be a nervous wreck. I needed to figure out a way to relieve me of the pressure of final exams. I always tried chewing gum but that only keeps me occupied for a little bit because the flavor not lasting. I always tried to not think about the test but the more I don’t think about the test the more nervous and anxious I get. I never heard that the stress ball would relieve stess but that just makes my forearms sore. I thought it would really work but I was wrong. Then I tried to develop something of my own and it funny how simple it was just by thinking to myself or telling myself not to worry about it, really works. I’m not kidding, I tell myself not to be nervous or not to get anxious and that technique works for me. I have to be really comfortable and relax for this to work. I use this technique at home when I’m dealing with my neices and nephew. I would say about 120% of the noise comes from them and it can be a real headache. It really stressful when you know you cannot concentrate with noise when trying to study. I get distracted easily and I cannot multitask it difficult for me I guess I was just not born with it. Its even harder when you have no quiet place in the house or no car to go to a quiet it place and that real stressful. Imagine this everyday when you come home from work and have school the next day and sometimes even after work before you go to school and to do a quick glance before a quiz you know you take in the next couple of hours. It starting to become easier the more I use this technique the more I can handle the pressure of exam, test, or quizzes. I didn’t think it will work but I tried many time before a quiz and test. It hasn’t fail for me yet so I’m going to keep using this technique. That how I deal with my everyday stress and it not hard for me. I like myself better when I’m not stress, I’m not grumpy or angry with anyone or easily irratated by anything when I’m not stress. When I do get a little stress I either use this technique or just try to forget about the stress, it not helping any so why stress. I know I will use this technique in the future and any stressful situation that come my way. I’m glad I found my own technique my own style of relieving stress it a useful technique for many situation to come.
