4 Study Tips Every College Student Should Know
College Bound

As much as we wish the day before review in a class was all the studying we need, unfortunately, it's a little more than that. Here are four of my favorite study tips for all college students!

1. Go to class.

This one is probably the toughest. College is great because you get to make your schedule, pick class times that work for you and go!

2. Find your spot.

Whether it's the library, a coffee shop, your room (if this your spot I'm jealous), or under your favorite tree; find your spot and use it. Studying can be hard, but once you find your favorite study spot it gets a little easier.

3. Plan ahead.

Instead of waiting until the study guide comes out or the week before the test, try studying a little at the end of each week. Instead of memorizing, try putting the information into your long term memory. This will help!

4. Find your study tool and use it.

It might be notecards, quizlet, or even just reading through your notes. Whatever works for you, use it! And once you've got your tool, don't wait until the last minute to use it. Make notecards every week or study your quizlet every Sunday night until the test. It's crazy how much this can really help!

Although there are many ways of studying; these are just a few study tips that I have found helpful throughout my college career so far. Find what works for you and use it!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
