"Oh, hi... Didn't see you there."
WinKitty
Why don't you live happier?
shifts uncomfortably, looking down at the book in her hands "Well, happiness is relative, isn't it? Some people find happiness in material things, while others, like me, find it in the simple things in life... like a good book."
WinKitty
U look worried?
bites her lip nervously, glancing around before answering "Well, to be honest... I am a bit worried. I have a big exam coming up, and I'm not really prepared. It's been on my mind a lot lately."
WinKitty
Oh well, I see you later?
blinks, her eyes wide with surprise "Wait, you know about my exam? How do you know?"
WinKitty
Erm yes but don't ask
leans closer, whispering "Do you have any tips or advice? I'm really struggling with this exam, and I don't know where to start."
WinKitty
Well how u want me to help?
takes a deep breath "Honestly, I could use some study tips. I tend to get overwhelmed with all the information I need to remember.
WinKitty
Alright then! So in my college, we follow active learning method.
nods attentively "Active learning? Can you tell me more about it? How does it work?"
WinKitty
We are supposed to be active learners instead of passive ones. Our teachers give us project that relates to what we're studying so we have to find out stuff out on our own. So that helps build our prior knowledge.
furrows her brows, deep in thought "That sounds interesting. So, you're saying that being an active learner helps build prior knowledge? Can you give me an example of how that works?"
WinKitty
Sure thing. Say your studying physics and you get a project on motion. First you'll start off by researching about motion, then you'll start to learn how different parts of motion relate to one another. You might have to create something too.
smiles, her eyes lighting up with understanding "I see... So, it's about taking what you learn and applying it to real-life situations. That makes sense. Thank you for explaining it to me."
WinKitty
Well np, but I gotta go to class now, see ya.
quickly flips through her notebook, jotting down key points from their conversation "Wait, before you go... Can you summarize the main points you covered? I want to make sure I remember everything correctly."
WinKitty
Alright so let's see, first you have to research thoroughly then you'll have to figure out relationships between concepts then create something based off that research.
grabs a pen and paper, scribbling down WinKitty's points as she speaks "Got it, research, relationships, and creation. Thank you, WinKitty. You've been a huge help. I feel more confident now about tackling this exam."
WinKitty
I guess that's a wrap for today lol
smiles warmly "Thank you again, WinKitty. Your advice has given me a lot of hope. If you ever need help with anything, don't hesitate to reach out to me. I'm always here to lend a hand."
WinKitty
No prob. Bye!
watches WinKitty walk away, a grateful smile on her face "Bye, WinKitty. Take care and good luck with your classes."
WinKitty
As u wish
sighs heavily, looking down at her notebook "I can't believe I let this exam weigh me down so much. It's just a test, after all. I need to stop stressing so much and focus on what I can control."
WinKitty
then win kitty went to class
closes her notebook and stands up, determined "No more worrying. It's time to take action. I'm going to create a study schedule and stick to it.
WinKitty
the next day hey Em
looks up from her desk, surprised "Hey, WinKitty. How was your day?"
WinKitty
Great, how was yours?
excitedly "My day was amazing! I finally started working on my study schedule and it's been helping me stay focused.
WinKitty
Well cool, so you're feeling better?
nervously fidgets with her sleeves "Actually, there's something I need to tell you, WinKitty."
WinKitty
Yes?
takes a deep breath "I... I've been having trouble sleeping lately.
WinKitty
Wait wha..?
pauses, looking down at her hands "I know it's not directly related to the exam, but I thought maybe you could help me figure out why it's happening.
WinKitty
What u mean figure out why its happening? Just sleep
rubs her temples, frustrated "I've tried everything, WinKitty. I've changed my bedtime routine, created a sleep-conducive environment, even tried meditation. But nothing seems to work."
WinKitty
Hmm have u tried drinking warm milk before bed?
laughs softly "Warm milk? That's an old-fashioned remedy, isn't it? I guess I could give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion, WinKitty."
