Finals Week

Finals are here! Regents and just straight up stress everywhere.

How the hell are we suppose to do our homeworks, study for our upcoming exams, while taking practice exams and still learning new stuff?

These last few months are going to be hectic. I'm not going to lie, you're going to want to pull your eyes out, skips all your classes, and go to chipotle. But I will help you get through these tough times because, I'm going through them too. Unfortunately.

First, you will definitely need a planner, or just a to-do list. Whether you print one out or buy one. You're gonna need one. Make sure it's something that will keep your organize. It's not just straight up, boring, and something you'll probably never look at.

(This is my To-Do list that I print out)


Believeve it or not...writing it down actually helps. You see your goals, it becomes more clear and real, not just a 3-second thought before you click in the next episode on Netflix.

Priorities. Priorities. Priorities.

Netflix will not grown legs and run away, but your good grades will and you will not be able to run away from the fail coming your way. Get your shit together.

That essay? It's not gonna do itself! The extra help you know you need? It isn't gonna magically come to you. Get your shit together.

Second

Take five minutes a day to answer practice questions only. Or go on quizlet (The best school app in the world TBH). It has its own flash card, test, and games for whatever topic you are doing! All you need to do is get the app, or go online.

Go over all your note at the end of the week. You and I both know you were snoozing off 15% of the time during class.

Separate the new topics from the old ones, and look over them independently. Competé, is now compìtio in the new notes. Don't confuse them by studying it all together.


Have time for yourself, you're own little free time, where you can do whatever you want at least once a week. Or else, you will go crazy. ' but no more then two days a week, 'cause this is crunch time. No time to waste.

Go go over the old essays you wrote. See hope far you've improved. Don't forget to ask any questions. Comment. Actually go study right now. Get off this blog! Go get stuffy done!

This Generation


Our Questioning Spirits


Unlike other generations, we have a more questioning spirit. We want to know why things are the what they are, and how come they've been that way for so long?

The thing is, we have opportunities to obtain informations instead of remaining oblivious. We're the generation where answeres are at our fingertips....Literally!

As a fellow high schooler I know some of us would rather go in Instagram instead of getting answeres.....because the topic is 'too sensitive'. Sensitive or not...you shouldn't remain ignorant. People are saying that this generation is the 'most incompetent' or 'worst behaved'.....that's because we're opening the world to suggestions that were never thought of before or was considered false. Everyone once believed the world revolved around the earth......until a man finally decided to gather information in what's really going on.

Which is what you should be doing if you question anything....even the tiniest little detail. It could change the world.....you can change the world!

You have a question about religions....read their main sources. Question about our government.... Ask the right questions, and might find the right answers.

Read. Research. Don't get brainwash by social media, and believe whatever they tell you. I wish I could just get out of the screen and show you how messed up the world really is. Please.

(If you want a list of ways to obtain the information you need, message me or comment...and I'll right another article)
