Ib Memes - Tumblr Posts

Okay, I am in my first semester of college and took a fairly easy schedule since all of my gen eds have been knocked out due to IB and realized something. 

I don’t feel like I am doing enough unless I am physically exhausted. 

I’m finishing with a 3.7/3.8 depending on finals and literally feel like a failure. On paper, I am doing great and am excelling in college, but I didn’t realize why I didn’t feel like I was doing enough until the other day I had to pull my first all nighter and finally felt successful in a way. Throughout IB, I tied my exhaustion to my work ethic and now I am going to have to work to untrain myself from that thinking pattern and reteach myself that sleep is so so important. 

I’ve talked to a couple of other students from my school and everyone is kind of on the same page and agrees they have weird sleep schedules now that is taking a while to readjust after doing it for four years. 

If you’re reading this, don’t do this to yourself. A lack of sleep is not indicative of working harder. It just tells of how exhausted you are. That’s it. Please try to sleep more.
