HARVARD MIDTERMS VLOG ,5 AM mornings, lots of studying, super productive & busy, motivation

Good morning! It's officially midterm week for me because I have four midterms in the next three days. Today is Monday. I have one today, one on Tuesday, and then two on Wednesday. And then after that it's just exciting stuff because housing day is on Thursday, where all the freshmen get sorted into their upperclassmen dorms, which is super exciting. And then next Monday I'm leaving for Cancun. I am so excited for spring break. It is very much needed. This past week just has been quite rough, a lot a lot of studying, and I'm just a bit stressed for all my exams. And I just remembered I actually have two exams today because I have a quiz in two hours, so that is something I also have to prepare for. And right now I'm getting ready for my consulting midpoint presentation for my club we are presenting to our client. So I'm super excited for that because I've been making a lot of slides and it was a very crammed timeline so I'm glad that at least that is finished. Okay, I'm going to go change and then the meeting is in about half an hour so I'm going to get some work done and studying done before that happens. Yes, can you hear me? Please try and grab stickers. We're back. This morning has been insanely hectic. I helped host a conference and we just had like an activity and I was like screaming for an hour. I went to go get some lunch but I did not like the options so I got some yogurt and I have a midterm in two hours, three hours actually. I'm just so excited for these three days to be over. I also need to go to Trader Joe's to get some frozen fruits because I ran out. I cannot be bothered during this time. Hello, there is about 30 minutes until my exam. I was going to take a 30 minute nap but then I decided against it because I was like what if I can't get up because I don't have the habit of napping. I'm so tired. I did not get enough sleep last night. I think I got like six hours, seven hours so I'm drinking an energy drink. Hopefully, that'll wake me up. I have like this thing where like when it's the day of the exam, I like lose all motivation to study. Like this is under the condition that I think I already know the content. If I don't know it, I will be cramming. It's like not a good habit because I should be studying. Anyways, wish me luck on the exam. Oh my god, I fully just like failed that exam. That was the first exam I failed since coming here but like I think everyone didn't do so great but I like did really bad. We did not have practice problems. The review session was so much easier than the exam. Like that was insane. I, oh my god. Greek yogurt with blueberry cobbler, fries with ice cream. I do not want to hear any judgment on my food combination choices. I am actually crashing out right now. Like what in the actual world? We never learned that. We got zero practice. I'm gonna eat this. Oh my god. I opened my computer to my grade. That is insane. I don't know if I could pass this class. Wait, this is actually insane. I have not done this bad on a test since like, oh my god. It's okay. I need some healing. I'm gonna eat this and then I'm gonna head to the gym and get a very nice workout and a sauna session in. And then I really need to study for my next two, next three midterms. This was not a good start. I should have dropped this class. I mean that was like completely unfair. I swear everyone who walked out of that exam was like, that was insane. I am already feeling so much better. I feel like I was just thinking about it and I was like, would I care about this? Would I remember this 10 years from now? And probably not. It's okay. I studied what I could and the class has some problems with it, in my opinion. And honestly, it is just a grade. Like, it does not matter that much. And everything will work out. I trust that. Hello. I just finished my gym session and I'm feeling so much better. And now I'm gonna head back because I have a meeting in a bit. ...to reduce their mortgages. And that was also very much part of the plan that they would keep those funds. They weren't expecting... We could make a cheat sheet for one of my midterms and it has to be handwritten. Like, look how fast I made it. Very proud of myself. I did a practice exam. I'm grading it right now. It is 10.07. I think I'm gonna head to sleep after this because I want to wake up early tomorrow and go to the gym. A lot of people ask, like, why do you wake up early on a final or, like, an exam day and go to the gym? Honestly, I feel like staying in routine helps me, like, focus more and it's not like, oh, I'm treating this special. And honestly, waking up early makes me more attentive and more focused. So, just a personal habit. Let's head to my second midterm. Hello. I just finished my midterm and it wasn't too bad. Definitely better than yesterday. And now I got some food. I got more yogurt, but honestly, like, the lunch options weren't that great and you can't go wrong with yogurt. I'm gonna study for my last two midterms tomorrow. I am so happy right now. I'm in the restroom right now to, like, speak to you guys because there's so many people outside. I had my exam today for microeconomics and I was, like, a top score. She set the stats for the exam and I got the top score. Like, I'm pretty sure maybe there's other people who also got the same score as me, but... I was just studying for, like, two hours. I did two practice exams for one of my midterms tomorrow and now I'm gonna switch to my other midterm and start studying for that. Yay! So, big data is long, wide data is... I have two meetings. It is 10.30 and I'm gonna wake up at around 5.45 tomorrow to go to the gym. I have two more midterms tomorrow and then I'm done. And then after that, it is housing day, which is huge. So if you wanna see that, I'll probably record it for TikTok. So definitely go follow me there. And this L'Occitane hand cream smells so good. Anyways, I'm so excited for tomorrow to be over. I have two midterms back-to-back, so I am a bit scared. I'm feeling prepared and I know that it's gonna be amazing. So I'm gonna head to bed. Good night, and I'll see you guys tomorrow for the last day of midterms. Good morning. I was so tired. And I realized that I can't sleep in tomorrow either because it's housing day. Because I have a personal training class scheduled at 7am. I was like highly considering like sleeping in today. But then I was like, if I already failed my promise to myself, then the whole day probably won't go as good. And I like to keep my promises to myself in order to build discipline and build trust for myself. So, we got up. And this is your motivation to wake up early and pull yourself out of bed and go do things that make you happy. So now let's get ready and head to the gym. Okay, I have to leave for class in like three minutes. So I have to hurry and eat. I have a 9am and then my midterm is at 10.30. So I'm gonna run from class to my midterm. And then I have another midterm at 12.45. I got this. And after that, I'm done. I am so happy right now. I'm in such a good mood. I finished my midterms. I think I did pretty well on them except the first one. But that was just completely not it. I am just going to relax now. And then I'm going out with my friend later to Trader Joe's and to get some boba. So I'm super excited. Anyways, it is a great day and it's gonna be a great week ahead. So for the rest of this vlog, let's just have fun and enjoy the last few days before spring break. I got a package. Oh my god. This is so cute. They spelled my name wrong, but it's okay. I wonder what is in here. Oh my gosh. No way. This is so cute. Oh my gosh, wait. This is gonna be my new journal. This is so cute, guys. And this is so me. This notebook, how do they know? Let's look at the phone cases. This is phone case number one. It matches. Bro, this brings me so much joy. And phone case number three. This is also so cute. Thank you so much, Berga. I am so excited to use these. I'm gonna switch them onto my phone right now. Your fit. The matching fit. Oh yeah. Cheers. The matcha. I'm trying to cancel the orders, like don't even deliver it. Hi! Hi guys, I just finished my meetings for the night. It is 9.30 and I'm gonna meet my blocking group, which is a group of five girls that I'm gonna be living in the same house with for the next three years here at Harvard at 10pm. And we're gonna start River Run together. So basically River Run is like a tradition where all freshmen will basically run to all nine houses on the river in hopes of getting a river house. Because the housing lottery splits all freshmen into 12 different houses like Hogwarts, and no one wants to be put into the quad because it is a really long walk away. So let's pray that I get a house that I want. I'm so excited. But anyways, I'm gonna end the vlog here because it is getting quite late. And if you wanna see which house I got into and the whole housing day activities at Harvard, go follow me on TikTok and Instagram because I'll be posting videos there. This week has been such a stressful and long week, but at the same time, it is such a great week and I just know that it's gonna end so nice and the spring break will be so much fun. And I also have some idea of what summer plans are gonna be. So it's just been a very busy, very productive, very learning, but also a very fun and very forward-looking week and I'm so happy about that. Anyways, I'm gonna go get ready for River Run because we're gonna be running between the houses and doing a lot of fun stuff. So I'll say goodbye to you guys here. I hope you guys had an amazing week and if you are also having spring break soon, I hope you enjoy your break and I'll see you guys in the next video. Love you! Bye!
