Oh yes. Very busy with OWLs. "Yes, I can't fall behind on studying. Ive made a whole schedule and the hardest part will be sticking to it." Her brother had forced her to look at all of his scheduling techniques so that she could truly optimize her time as best as she's could. "Do you have any advice or tips for OWLs?" Any advice would be welcome!
Better part of the term? Gosh. They were certainly full of life. "They seem an interesting bunch, quite similar to us and yet also quite different." Olivia certainly felt a little overwhelmed by all the chaos at the Gryffindor table. She didn't mind chaos too much just as long as it could be somewhat managed.
Being a Professor meant more to her than just giving lessons and homework to her students. As much as she didn't want to pry into their lives and make anyone uncomfortable she liked for them to know that should they ever need to speak with her about anything she would be there to listen and/or help however possible.
"It's my pleasure. I may not know everything about every topic but I like to think that I do know some things," she laughed softly. It was meant to be serious but also slightly joking.
OWLs and NEWTs were the years that students lost themselves in their students and lots of them cracked under the pressure.
"A schedule is always useful but only if you plan to follow it." If it was something you had no intention on doing to begin with a schedule wouldn't be of much help. Did she have any tips? Just a few.
"Take your time studying. Don't cram for an OWL the night before and remember that sometimes the answer to a problem or situation is the simplest one." Not everything had to be complex.
"Remember to eat, don't skip meals and make sure that you get proper sleep and plenty of breaks in between. You also want time to do things you like, spend time with friends. It all doesn't have to be studying...to much studying doesn't always help." In other words pace herself and have fun too.
Camilla laughed softly.
"They are young students just like all of you here. They may sound a bit different, like different hobbies or eat different food but you're all here to learn. Take the time to speak to some of them and the things you have in common might very well surprise you." After all the Ilvermorny kids needed the kids here to welcome them.
