My Weekend: Finals

I can't believe this semester is already over.  Is it just me or does yesterday feel like September, and now I'm barricaded in the library with my laptop and massive cup of coffee.  As this semester winds down here are some study tips from me.

1. Be realistic with your expectations.

2. Do what works for you - if one study technique isn't working mix it up, try something different until you find what works. 

3. Make sure you are comfortable.

4. If you aren't getting work done take a walk outside (maybe a trip to get another cup of coffee or snacks). What I've learned is often your brain will tell you when your no longer being productive, and when I make my study breaks facebook or tumblr I say on them way longer than I should.  Walking outside gives you fresh air, and lets you stretch out your muscles.  

Yes these are all really simple tips and not very specific, but if I've learned anything from the past few years in college it is that everyone studies and learned differently.  So the ways I study may not be the way you study and that is ok!  

Good luck on finals to all my readers who have them coming up!
