Exam Season Study Tips

-
       Final exam week is just around the corner, and as fast as this school year is going by I can't not post some study tips for my viewers. I have compiled a list of six tips that I think are the most effective for me.

  1. Don't Cram- This tip might be one of the most obvious tips in the entire world but that is because it is very important. Cramming the day before can make you even more stressed and it is harder for your brain to retain information that way. Stay was from cramming.
      2. Practice Testing- Testing on practice quizzes can be very helpful because it can give you more              of an idea of want you need to study and what type of questions can be on your exam. If you                  have a study schedule, I recommend that you add practice tests to it.

      3. Review Notes on the Daily- Even if you              don't study for hours everyday it is still a                really good idea to review your notes every            day. You should spend a few minutes on                every set of notes,  doing that can really                improve your retention of information.

      4. Exercise- This tip is a pretty common tip,              but that is because exercise can be really                beneficial to brain activity and get your                  thoughts running a bit faster. Before an exam, trying walking around outside for a few minutes.              If you can't go outside, then try walking around the hallways.

      5. Study With Friends- Having other people study with you can help you remember important                information and it can also be fun. Just group up with your friends that are taking the same exam            and have a study session.

I hope you use some of these tips when it comes time to take exams. Thank you for reading this blog post, don't forget to comment down below any suggestions you have for my blog.

Tips and Tricks to Stay Organized

           Many people, including me, find it hard to stay organized. One might set a goal to be organized and they keep up with that goal for a couple of weeks, but then they slowly start to get unorganized. I have compiled this list of tips and tricks to get organized and stay organized. 1. Make a To-Do List             Having a to-do list can make overwhelming days into calm days. Write down every single thing you need to do on a certain day. Include the tiniest of tasks. (ex. Picking out clothes for tomorrow, or filling up your water bottle) After you have everything written down on your list, start completing them one by one. Always start with the easiest tasks first! That way when you get to the harder tasks on your list, you won't be overwhelmed by everything else you have to do. 2. Clean Workspace              Working in a clean space can help you be more productive and not as o...

Plan With Me! April Edition

-
Image
            Every month, most bullet journalists (including me), create a monthly log to plan events for each month of the year. I just wanted to share how I set up my monthly spread for April. Starting off the spread for April, I create a long skinny column on the left page, that I use to show what day of the month belongs to what day of the week. Next, I create a box towards the top of the page where I write all my goals for the month. In the space below the box, I leave alone to decorate later. On the right page of the spread, I start making a mini calendar. It's just a grid that I make with a ruler. My grid for April is 5x7 but that can change from month to month. I create boxes at the top of each column to label with each day of the week. In my calendar, I associate events and tasks with colored dots. Below the calendar grid, I write what each colored dot represents in my calendar. After I have all of the elements of the monthly log I de...

     Hello, and welcome back to my blog. Last Friday I purchased a betta fish from Petco, and I wanted to share it with you guys because I have never had a betta fish before. The only fish I have had were the cheap ones from the fair that died within a week, and I had those when I was six. Now, I have enough time and responsibility to take care of my new betta fish.      This project that I decided to take on, cost me about $95, including everything I bought; from decorations to the actual fish. Here is a complete list of want I got:) 1.6g fish tank ($30) Crowntail betta fish ($8) Blue and White gravel ($5) Betta fish pellets ($4) Water conditioner ($6) Five silk plants ($15) Freeze dried blood worms ($4) Rock tower aquarium ornament ($7) Betta hammock ($4) + shipping for some supplies and tax      If you are planning on buying a betta fish, it will probably cost you about as much as I spent.      My bett...
