Piglu’s Power: Snooze Struggles, Study Wins, and Pomodoro Promises

Hiii, my hustle heroes! It’s your girl Piglu, back with another episode of my chaotic, cozy, exam-prep adventure—picture me as a determined hamster on a slightly wobbly wheel. Today had its flops and flips, but I’m still spinning with Piglu power. Let’s jump in!

So, I went to bed late (oops) and even though I woke up on time, I pulled a classic Piglu move—snoozed again. Facepalm! For the next two hours, I was dozing off, pretending I was “revising current affairs.” Ha, nice try, subconscious! I was basically fooling myself, and it felt *pathetic*. With my exam just two months away (eek!), I gotta stop forgetting the mountain of material I need to climb.

But wait—plot twist! I somehow smashed my daily targets. *Cue happy dance!* Still, CSAT’s giving me side-eye, so I need to get serious there. Here’s the tea: if I can lock in for 25-minute Pomodoro sprints, I’m a syllabus-slaying machine. Perfect Pomodoros = Piglu’s key to victory! I’ve got 150 history pages left, and I’m plotting to conquer them in three days, four hours max. That’ll free up brain space for current affairs and revision. Genius plan, right?

The struggle? After a few Pomodoros, I turn into a lazy loaf, rewarding myself with *way* too many snacks and sliding from chair to bed during breaks. Bed’s like, “Stay forever, Piglu!” and I’m like, “Nooo, health first!” I gotta weave in walks, maybe strut like a fitness guru between study seshes. Alternate work and rest, not work and nap, ya know?

Oh, and random cool news: INS Tamal got commissioned in Kaliningrad—last of the foreign-built Indian Navy warships. Proud moment for us! Anyway, wrapping up with big dreams and a vow to crank up my Pomodoros tomorrow. Here’s to staying focused, walking more, and keeping the Piglu power lit! Tata, fam!

"Don't Stop Be-Leafing: My Journey to Exam Success & Rhythm"✍🏻

My "Exam-Cellent" Adventure: A Daily Dose of Discipline (and Puns!) Hey there!!!! future me (and anyone else who stumbles upon this)!🥹 Welcome to my little corner of the internet, where I'm embarking on a purr-fectly ambitious journey over the next 2️⃣ years. My mission? To conquer a really important exam, cultivate rock-solid discipline, and prove that even a tiny bit of progress each day can lead to grrr-eat things.🐻 This blog is my accountability partner, my personal cheer squad, and sometimes, my confessional. Each day, no matter what, I'll be posting an update right here. Because if I can commit to a daily blog, I can commit to anything, right? Lettuce begin! The Daily Grind: A 12-Hour Study Marathon (with Rhythm!) My main goal is to clock in a solid 12 hours of focused study or more every single day.

Day 5/730

Chasing Better Days: Overslept, Overate, but Still Grinding Hey, hustlers! It’s me, back with another chapter of my beautifully messy life. Today was like trying to herd cats while riding a unicycle—challenging, but I made it work. Let’s unpack the chaos. So, I overslept. * Three hours late *. My alarm clock is basically trolling me at this point. I spent two whole hours sulking, feeling like I’d already fumbled the day. But then I snapped out of it, dusted off the disappointment, and got my schedule rolling. Was it smooth sailing? Not quite, but it was progress. I’m on a mission to become a better me—stronger, sharper, all that good stuff. But some days, it feels like I’m stuck in reverse. No worries, though—I’m not letting these hiccups derail me. I’m locked in, determined to nail my schedule, and it’s gotta happen on time. No excuses. The win of the day? Kept my phone on the desk, far from distraction city. Things were going great until a heavy lunch turned me into a human sloth. ...

Day-1/ 730

The Day's Unfolding: From Global News to Personal Gains Woke up a bit before my alarm today – a small win. The first thing that hit me was the news about Trump declaring a ceasefire between Iran and Israel. Honestly, it's wild how when someone's powerful, everyone just seems to listen. Then came the leaked report about match-fixing between Iran and the US, leaving Iran and Israel confused. It makes you wonder how much of what governments tell us is the real story, versus what's happening behind the scenes. Like that situation with Thailand's PM and the Cambodian ex-leader, where a leaked call could cost her everything. Just a lot to think about right after waking up! Finding My Stride (and My Space ) After all that mental gymnastics, I put on some morning music. But then my parents burst into my room, loud and oblivious to my desire for a peaceful start. My initial annoyance quickly faded though. I realized that a calm mindset isn't about others catering to my c...
