Sophomore Year Excitement

I’m already super excited for sophomore year next year! I’ve been planning the common space and bathroom with my roommate already. Luckily, we have the same style, so it’s made things pretty easy! In the sophomore dorms, we both get our very own (TINY) room and share a common space and bathroom with each other. Most of décor we will be making because both of us are into crafts and I love building things. I’ll be making a snack bar to put in the common space that will fit the mini fridge and the top counter will serve as a coffee station because we both love coffee. I’m also going to make a coffee mug holder to put on the wall above the snack bar.  We haven’t been able to think of much for the bathroom because the floor tiles are so ugly. We have to think of something to do to the bathroom to help them look a little more normal.  
 
I’m way too excited about decorating my dorm room but even more excited to see all my friends again. Normally we just a measly three-month summer break, but this time it’ll be five months before I see my friends and teammates again which really sucks. The friends that I’ve made in just my first year are ones that I can’t see myself without for the next three years. The bonds I’ve created in just these few short months are unbreakable. I hate having to go five months without seeing them. 

What are you most excited for next year?

Good Studying Habits

Image
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 stud...

Missing Loved Ones Pt. 1

Image
There are two people I miss most in the world. My Grammy and my Papa, my Grammy passed when I was 17 and my Papa passed when I was 15. In this Blog I will be talking about my Papa and in the part two, I will talk about my Grammy.             Ever since I was a baby, my Papa and I had a very special bond. He gave me the most special nickname I could ask for. He only ever called me “Gypsy” and there is a very funny reason why. When my mom and dad announced that my name was going to be Madylin, my Papa told them that he didn’t like it and that it was a gypsy name which is where the nickname started. For 15, my papa never called me Madylin or Mady, only Gypsy.              My Papa and I had many inside jokes, but my favorite was our sign language. For example, if you ever saw us in a public setting put our arms straight up in the air, with palms facing in, i...

It's Getting Warm

  In Michigan, I feel as though we are the last to get the warm weather. My friends from Ohio that I’ve made at school have been posting the 70-degree weather they are enjoying while I am inside in the warm because its 40 degrees outside. Well, lucky for me and my fellow Michiganders, it’s beginning to warm up here. All last week into the begging of this week, I’ve been spending my quarantine days at my neighbors (Madison) hot tub hanging out. She’s a senior in high school this year so she’s enjoys the company during this hard time.   As we’ve been hanging out in the, what we think, is hot weather (AKA 50 degrees) we have been trying different tropical drinks and snacks to really make us feel like were in the midst of summertime in *southern* Michigan.    I’m going to share our two favorite things we’ve tried so far.  Coconut smoothie – coconut milk, coconut, frozen: banana and pineapple, honey, and cinnamon Sunshine smoothie- vanilla almond ...
