All Nighter Study Session Not Working?

During our last week of the quarter, everyone has a final in almost every class. And along with the tests comes a lot of studying. Everyone has their different ways to study but I usually stay up all night the day before a test, and then I study. Not very smart. I know I'm not the only one who does this though, so I found some helpful things to remember during study time.

1. Find a place to study. Not your bed or a couch because it's easier to relax, space-off and fall asleep. So, study at a desk or your kitchen table! Make sure you have everything you need you so don't waste time getting up over and over again.


2. Turn off all distractions. Put your phone on silent, turn off the TV and make sure there aren't a lot of people around you.


3. Flashcards. If you're studying any vocabulary, grab some flashcards and study them whenever you can. If carrying around flashcards doesn't work for you try Quizlet. 


4. Eat healthy snacks while you study. Don't have cookies, chips or soda. Have some fruit and veggies to keep your brain moving.


5. Take breaks every once and a while. No one can study for 2 hours straight and get all the information, so relax and clear your mind. You can go on your phone, go for a walk or watch TV. Your break should only last about 15-20 minutes.

I am not a good role model when it comes to studying.... Just remember to study early, don't wait for the night before to study. It's actually been proven that studying the night before results in lower test grades because you might think you know it, but your brain needs more time to sort the information and think about it.

Outfits and Clothing: Fall Essentials

Fall is hear but winter is near! I love this time of year because it's sweater weather, and everyone knows sweater weather is better! I love bundling up when it's cold outside, watching the leaves change color and being able to buy warm drinks at Starbucks. Then the snow comes! Living in Park City, how could you not like the cold weather?! Anyways, here are a few outfits sorted according to your style:

Comfy:

•Aztec Sweater
•Black Leggings or Jeans
• Combat Boots
• Stockings peeking out of your boots

Which style is most like you? I find myself wearing the laid back look a lot...

There's obviously a lot ways you can change these outfits up, and you might not have everything. IMPROVISE! Make it even more YOU! However, if you were interested in buying any of this stuff, here are some different websites where I like to find my clothes: Pac Sun, and American Eagle  


TIP: When shopping for these things, bring your student ID! A lot of stores offer a 10% discount if you have it with you. And don't be afraid to ask, what's the worst that could happen?
