Hey, I have exams coming up in like 2 weeks and I also work full time. Anyone has any suggestions for calming myself down as I feel very tired and stressed all the time!

Have you tried meditation? You don't need much time, just a minute or two. Go to a quiet, dimly lit area in your home and close your eyes. Take deep breaths, inhaling positive energy and exhaling the negative. Try to clear your mind. I know it sound silly, but it works.
Or, archery. I've always felt better, more relaxed and at peace with the world after shoot the heck out of a piece of paper.
Better yet, look up reflexology online. It's acupressure. There are spots on your feet and hands that will trigger the release of certain chemicals in your brain.
And then, there's chocolate. Chocolate makes everyone feel better. If you can't have chocolate... I'm terribly sorry, it must be awful. (I love chocolate) Well, I'm out of advice on this one. Good Luck.

Make sure you get a good night's sleep the night before the exam. Eat a good breakfast. Bring some candy and/or gum to the test. (Sugar stimulates the brain.) Also don't forget to take deep breaths and drink plenty of water (1 gallon/100 pounds per day).
Study. Study. Study. Then do your best. That's all you can do.
Best wishes.

Kudos to u for being able to juggle work and play!! :) Here are things i usually do when i feel stressed:
- go to raffles city basement to get a stress buster refreshing fruit juice! (or any other fruit juice like green apple and orange mix)
- Go to the swimming pool, just float around, swim slowly and leisurely....feel like all the stress is floating and cooling away from your body
- If u have money, go to Clarins Institute at Wheelock place 5th level, to get a facial (about $130) or massage (about $150)...
- have a wholesome set meal at soup restaurant, complete with double boiled soup and vegetables..etc..and dessert. (about $50 for 2 persons)
- For me, coz i'm a clarins user, i buy their "Tonic" shower gel and "Relax" shower gel as gifts for friends and myself. I take a looooong shower while breathing in the aromatherapeutic smells...use with a foam sponge...heavenly...dats my quick fix. ($33 a bottle)
