Moms...


Okay, it’s time to talk about the one thing every teenage girl can understand and agree on, moms. You and I both know that moms can be a real pain in our butts, with the silliest rules, not understanding simple technology, and the worst yet... not closing the door after leaving your room. Moms make the worst-case scenario situations out of anything and everything you tell them about your day. We bite our tongues with attitudes and hold our eye rolls for when she turns around but somehow, she always knows that you did it. 

Even though we could find 100 reasons why moms make us cringe, we could find 101 reasons why we need her. You know in the morning when you can’t find your favorite sweater that you knew you had hanging in you closet? You’ve looked 43 times, but you can’t seem to find it, so you go and ask your mom if she’s seen it and within one second of looking, she has it in her hands telling you that you’re blind. As annoying as this might be, moms really are like super heroes. With their super find-it skills, eyes on the back of their head, and future telling skills, moms are here for a reason. 






     As hard as it may be to admit, moms do seem to always be right. Anytime I don't take my moms advice on something, I always look back and wish I had. Moms are placed in our lives to guide us, so why do we always argue and fight the guidance when we know very well that our struggles aren’t unique, and chances are that your mom has been there and can give you a simple solution. 




     Let’s take a moment to agree to stepping back from situations where your mom is making you frustrated and think “maybe she has a point” or even “okay, i'll try that”. Moms really do know best, let’s let them do their job. 
                                                                                              





               The older I grow, the more I realize, my mom is the best friend I’ve ever had.

Good Studying Habits

Studying can be a struggle but I’m hoping some of these ideas can help you focus better and retain more information faster.  The first thing you’re going to want to do is take a learning styles test. Click here to take it.   Based off of your results you can change your studying habits to work well with how you learn. For example, I am a visual learner. I make my notes very colorful and draw diagrams and tables, I also learn more efficient if I re-write what I’m studying.  You can also take a few different approaches. If you’re in class and learn a concept for the first time that you think you understand but wish you could hear it again or even re-worded, go on YouTube and watch a crash course over it. They have a lot of videos covering almost anything you learn in class.  You can also make a Kahoot or Quizlet to study off of. I don’t use this method personally, but I have a few friends that do it and swear by it. If you’re looking for a new way to study, then I suggest t

How to Keep Yourself Busy While at Home from School

We all know what pandemic the world is in right now and were soon to be stuck to our homes. Away from school, friends and sports, I’m sure you’re asking, “what do I do now?”. Since I’ve been home the past few days and spent the first online schooling day in my room, I realized how much goes on at school and how little happens in my hometown of Monroe, Michigan. Knowing that I’ll need to occupy myself until the end of the school year as at home, now, online student, I’ve come up with some things I can do make time pass until this whole craziness is over.  1.       Personally, I already have a YouTube channel, so I’ll be able to post a lot more, more often and better content. For you, however, if you dint have one already, you can start a YouTube channel or begin a quest to become TikTok famous 2.       When I was at school, I was always using the excuse “you’re too busy to workout”. Well now I have nothing but time on my hands and I can no longer use this excuse. G

Final Week Stress Help

Image
Currently I am writing this blog during dead week, the week of stress and preparation for the hell week to follow. In five days, I will be doing nothing but exams and crying over the unknown answers and lack of time to cram in my last-minute studying. Luckily, because schools have been shut down for Corona, we all have an advantage this finals week. Unfortunately, we do still have the finals though and it still can be stressful. As the last two weeks of the semester start to fly by, you realize all the work you have put off till the last minute is getting in your way of studying for your exams.  My tip for last minute freak outs at the end of the semester is to PLAN. Sitting down with a blank piece of paper, planner, or calendar and simply figuring out what day things are due and what days you can do the work can make the stress nearly disappear. Looking at a long to do list versus breaking up the to do list into days and planning what time to do the work can definitely make a dif
