How To Prepare Before It Is Too Late
eCampus

It is finally upon us, yes you guessed it, finals. That stressful week where students all across America cram information into their little heads just to get an A on an exam. It is stressful and exhausting. But there is hope. Here are a few tips about how you can prepare before it is to late.

1. Sleep.

Sleep is a very important thing. For people our age research suggests 7-9 hours.

2. Eat Healthy.

For the week before finals and the week of finals try to stay away from junk food. Although we all love and eat our fair share of junk food, it only hurts your body during this time of the semester.

3. Enjoy The Weather While It Lasts

We all know how Minnesota weather is.One day it is 70 and sunny the next it is negative four degrees and all you want to do is curl up in a blanket. While you have the time remember to go outside and enjoy the nice weather. Use this time to take breaks from studying and enjoy the outdoors before it is to late.

4. Start A New Netflix Show And Finish It Before Finals.

Some suggestions for this are "Bones", "Greys Anatomy", and "Gossip Girl". Start these shows now and finish before finals, that way they are out of sight and out of mind, thus enabling you to begin finals week with a mind set that is ready to conquer that dreadful week ahead.

5.Visit Family.

Family always relieves stress. They can help you work through your problems and figure out life.

6. Make A Stress Ball.

This video is so awesome! I am excited to make this to help with my stress.

7. Cry A Little.

It never hurts to cry a little. This helps relieve stress. It also helps to move forward and clear your head.

8. Find Your Space.

Mine is my room. Some people like a chubby in the library, while others like places like the Smaug. What ever your space is make sure it is relaxing and comfortable.

9. Pay Attention In Class.

If you don't understand what this means, I cannot help you this soon to finals. Message me next semester.

10.Find Friends Whom Possess The Same Knowledge As You Do Or Whom Are Smarter Than You Are.

If you can find friends who are smarter or as smart as you, you can form a study group and bounce ides off of each other. This will help each person in the group with their studying habbits and in the end you all will more than likely have a better chance of acing your finals.

11. Last But Not Least, I Guess You Can Study.

If none of these things work to help you with finals, I guess you can study. Obviously this is the better of the options, but the other ten are a lot of fun. If I were you I would try them first.

Good luck and do not forget...

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.
