Enero en la playa

or January at the beach.

Bebemos dorados, hablamos callados.

Random thoughts: (don't panic, probably nonsence)
/ Pensamientos pasajeros: (no se extrañen, probablemente no tengan sentido)

Some people don't really enjoy facing difficulties. A pretty lady said once: "we are hidding like happy elephants" That made me think... hiding is not so bad if we're happy with it, right?. Of course, that situation is only possible if we're elephants, and so we should all either transform or face our problems. / Algunas personas digamos que no disfrutamos de enfrentarnos con las dificultades. Una mujer bonita dijo una vez: "Nos escondemos como elefantes felices". Eso me hizo pensar... esconderse no es tan malo si somos felices, no?. Claro, que esa situación sólo es posible en el caso de que fuésemos elefantes, por lo que, o nos transformamos, o nos enfrentamos a nuestros problemas.

Do you like the first photo? It was taken by Filip Custic, I will make a post about his photography soon! Hopefully, with more pictures of me in it :)
God! These days of studying for exams are exhausting, could you please tell me some tricks you use to concentrate? I'd appreciate it a lot!
/ ¿Les gusta la primera foto? La sacó Filip Custic, voy a hacer un post sobre su fotografía dentro de poco, con suerte, habrá más fotos mías :)
Dios! Estos días de estudio son agotadores, ¿podrían decirme algún truco que usen para concentrarse? Se lo agradecería mucho!


Peace and Love,

Hi sweetie, love your good moods, it's contageous you know, I wasn't as happy waking up, because I had a wonderful dream and it ended, I tried to sleep some more and go back to it, but no luck. So your post really made me feel better. Now as to the exams, I don't know it your subject will be as theoretical, but I always follow these steps when I study.
1. Put on some classical music (in low volume of course) like Bach's Brandenburg concertos. It has nothing to do with the style of music one prefers, but as scientists have prooved grandiose music keeps one's brain calm.
2. Wear a specific type of perfume. Believe it or not, memory functions better this way. When you study focused on a thing, your nose picks up scents and transmits it to your brain, if these scents all come down to one (ex. your fave perfume) when it's time for you to recall the information you've read wearing the exact same scent brings back the memory faster and more efficiently.
3. Use pens and colored markers (not too bright ones. the best one to use is neon yellow) to keep track of grouped notes or similar themes on your subject.
4. Always make your own notes. Write short summaries near the texts you're studying. Then pass them in a white sheet of paper and move on to the next. When you finish doing this, read from your own notes and do the same again. By the third time you'll be doing this, you'll remember most of the notes. If you have teacher's notes available, read them comparatively, not alone.
4. Make a huge inspirational note, like KEEP CALM AND STUDY CALM, and hang it over your desk. Remind yourself often to Ohmmmm....
5. Finally, when you need to chill, take a long walk, do not go near the pc,unless it's urgent OR you're studying on your pc.
I hope these have proved useful.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR EXAMS.
THE PICS ARE LOVELY, LOVELY. Can't wait for more when you finish your exams :)
