Get BACK In Gear For Spring Semester!

Welcome Back! Today is all about getting back in gear for spring semester and I'm here to give you 5 easy tips to help you knock this semester out of the park.

TIP #ONE: GET AND STAY ORGANIZED
Planners are your best friend. Here are a few tips to help you get the most use out of a planner.
*Find one you really, really like and customize. Don't be afraid to personalize it, after all, it is YOUR planner.
*Write down monthly goals, work schedule, exams, assignments, club meetings, and fitness goals.
*Cross things off as they are completed. (It's really a great feeling, try it!) :)
Here is my planner for 2015!




TIP #TWO: READ THE BOOK Y'ALL
This may sound silly, but it definitely needs to be said. College is a whole lot different than high school and times have changed! Lol. Do the reading assignment when it is assigned. You'll come into class the next day already knowing the material, ready to engage in the discussion.

TIP #THREE: MISS THAT PARTY, THERE WILL BE PLENTY OTHERS
This tip is rather simple! :)

TIP #FOUR: DON'T BE AFRAID TO GET HELP
It's your money, so if you are having trouble with the material, ASK QUESTIONS. Email your professor. Create a study group. See a tutor on campus. Use all of the resources around you. Take the initiative and do what you have to do to succeed!

TIP #FIVE: BREATHE
You will make it. I promise. Things get hard. Exam weeks are miserable. The material is difficult to understand. Take a moment. Listen to your favorite song. Do some yoga. Get some fresh air and BREATHE. You will get through this. Enjoy this experience while you can.

Comment some of your favorite college tips or tricks! Good luck on another semester and see you next Friday!
With love,
