GOT STRESS?

yesyesyes?try these out!

Have dessert- Good news, eating something sweet decreases production of stress hormones. But go for good stuff: foods made of artificial sweeteners didnt deliver the same response as fare made of real sugar. HA! get ready to put on some weight!

Play a slow song- no Eminem or Techno(ahem!)- people who listened to slow-paced tunes had lower heart rates and blood pressure. (Bring out no.24 in A minor...wee)

Pop out an Altoid- Meaning, smelling peppermint or cinnamon. They are said to decrease frustration. Chewing a piece of strong-flavoured gun or mint may help you keep your cool at other crazed times too.

Lastly, think CALM and feel calm.
p.s: making funny faces wont help as much as the above quick fixes.

Weee..good luck to all those out there for the finals.(:
