Time Management





by Jeeah H.




How many of these sites do you recognise? More importantly how many of these tabs are open? This is just a select few sample of the many sites you may frequently visit. If you spend 5 minutes on each site represented that would equal a total of 185 minutes which is more than 3 hours! I'm pretty sure you do not spend just five minutes on each site, so that probably makes a whole day wasted online scanning through mindless sites. Okay, so these sites aren't exactly mindless but do be wary that there are other things in life worth more to do like a regular revision especially for us students. What are some K-POP sites that you go on a lot? Reduce your amount of time on them and increase your time studying. It is important to balance your time by studying first as the internet can then be the 'reward'. 


This goes out not only to K-POP fans, but all youths in general. Whether it'd be gaming, gossiping, watching television, or any idle activity, don't waste (notice I used the word 'waste' to emphasize my point that you are not spending your time wisely) too much time doing so. An hour or so a day of it is enough, replace the deducted time with more reading and studying. Prepare for exams and tests, or even for the next lesson (you'd be amazed how happy teachers can be to know that you've researched on the next lesson beforehand).

So, close this tab -- heck, close this whole window -- and open your books and notes. Start scanning and browsing through, highlighting, summarizing, or whatever the hell works for you to study.

Wishing you all the best. Don't have any words of motivation to offer, but if it helps, you may read this article: "K-POP isn't the reason why I'm not suceeding in my studies: Distractions and Study Habits"
