Being a student is hard sometimes...

 

This has been a busy week for me, had to submit a number of assignments and study for a test. School, School, school...

It causes a whole lot of stress for me sometimes, and the boring thing about it is that no matter what i try to do, i can't run away from it. Education is a great stepping stone in everyone's life. So i researched and got a few ideas of how one can cope with "educational stress":

 

Inevitably, you will feel anxious about this to start with. Will I be good enough? Can I keep up? This is the major challenge, and you will be facing it without the close guidance you may have previously enjoyed from a teacher or parent.

Get the right information from the start.  With assignments, what exactly are you being asked to do? How many words are you expected to write? What is the deadline for handing it in? If your tutors don't make themselves clear, ask questions and be persistent.

What resources are available? Is there a library; what hours is it open, and how many other students are going to be wanting to read the same book, at the same time?

Is there a photocopying machine or scanner, and do you have to pay to use them? How many computers are available to use? Or do you have your own with internet facilities set up? Make yourself a realistic timetable. When you are assigned a task, estimate how long you think it will take you. Then add on a bit more time, as you have probably been over-optimistic in the first place. Then set a time each day, or each week, to do it.

Thinking ahead also involves taking into account any resources you will need to complete the task. It may turn out that the library has only one copy of an essential book or paper, and someone else has just borrowed it. It’s better to allow too much time, and then find the bonus of a couple of hours off, than to stay up all night, drinking black coffee, in a panic.

I have realised that hard work pays, and that there is time for everything. There is time to work and time to have fun.... But this is a time for me to work, very hard!

I wish i had thought twice....

Only if things could be changed, or mistakes could be made right.
Have you ever done something that makes you and the people around you want to erase your existance on earth? I sometimes wish that life was plain and simple, that you dont have to go through crazy speed humps and make  stupid mistakes. But would that be nice, really?
A person becomes stronger by the bad things that occur in his or her life. When trials and tribulations occur, one should be gladly delighted because what does not kill you only makes you stronger. Am not proud of myself right now, I did something terrible that took all the trust my parents had for me away. I feel stupid, depressed, dirty, and selfish.
But.... I can't let that bring me down, for every fall I experience Iam willing to stand up twice with confidence, (no one ever said life was easy).
Learn from your mistakes!!!
Before considering to do something, think about the pros and cons, the harm that it could cause to the people around you, and the benefits that you will have if you do it.

My name is...

 

    The power of a name and its value has long been immortalized in prose, poetry, and religious ceremony. Everyone recognizes himself or herself by name.   The question is: how does a name influence a person's character? Most people tend to generalise people by thier names, they would suggest that people with specific names do similar things. Let us consider what a name is. It is the grouping of several letters of an alphabet, or other symbols, which represent the identification of a person or an object. Hence a name carries a lot of weight. For example in Christianity, the name Jesus is known to the the greatest name that is powerful above all names. It is said that "there is power in the name of Jesus". This name defines a mighty God that has power and authority above all living things on earth and in heaven. 

MY NAME IS....GUGULETHU
The treasure......our treasure.....
Iam highly independant and strongly creative in nature.
I am the precious stone, the treasure of the world.
I bring light to a dark place, a peace maker in all angles. Being the salt of the world is my desire, having compassion and love is my surname. Nothing and no one can stand in my way.
