Do we live to have fun or have fun to live?

I keep on thinking about that lately since my life is now all upside down. Am I actually living to have fun or having fun to live? 'Cause I'm hardly having any fun now. I have a migraine due to excessive studying, and yet my marks aren't as good as I wish they'd be. I really need to have some fun, I need some air! But my exam's around the corner...

我真的想要哭!谁可以救我?我真的不要让我妈跟爸伤心!要该怎么办? TT

 

I hope I can help you somehow. Don't give up! 真写的不错!别忘了, every sentence needs a subject. Your sentence "Migraine due to excessive studying, and yet my marks aren't as good as I wish they'd be." is okay in Chinese, but in English "migrane...studying" has to be a complete sentence.

 

Please let me know how I can help!

Nice one, Aniket. You shot a bullet right through my brain.

1. Are you studying for yourself or for your parents? What's the purpose of everything you're doing? This is something you have to make clear for yourself because having a purpose is a key to adding enjoying to processes which strain your brain. 2. Are you getting things done? How long does it take you to complete a certain task? If you are in control of your time and systematic about your study (even so much so as to time yourself for every task), you will always find an hour or two for leisure and relaxation, so monitor your time and be aware of how you use it. 3. Do you have someone to study with? Sometimes it helps when you have a study partner because you will get things done due to a certain 'fear' of losing face in the eyes of your partner if you don't. Having a partner also gives another opinion and of course someone to talk to for entertainment. 4. "Am I living to have fun or having fun to live". I don't see what relevance this has to your core problem despite the fact that that's the title of your entry. But I think there shouldn't be a "we" here because I and I'm sure many other people don't identify themselves as having their lives constrained to the purpose of 'having fun'. Some people live to create, some people live to make money, some people live to help others. What is universally true however is that we have fun to release chemicals in the brain that make us feel happy and satisfied. By contrast, you feel stressful because our brain is such that it rejects thinking to conserve energy. Excessive metabolical activity (thinking) forces the accumulation of a certain type of toxins which halt this process and induce a "I can't take it anymore" feeling. One solution here is to manage your time as I have described so that you have at least an hour a day for leisurely activities, and the second solution is to get enough sleep, because this is when the accumulated toxins get released. Good luck, Aniket

Don't worry.Maybe you are using the wrong way to study.Try to find out the best way to study.Adjust what you feel,do you have any hobby?If you were tired of study,take a rest to listen music,then go on.It would help you relax.Give you a big hug.It is OK.You will get through it.Fighting!
