Summer's Out; School's In!

Hi. This is Ica. I wasn't able to introduce myself before; but I was the one who reviewed the Avengers, Legend of Korra and Sherlock. (Visit my personal blog here.) Okay, anyway, I'm not here to review any T.V. series or move or whatnot; I'm here to help you kids to get ready for school.

Here in the Philippines, school's right around the corner (mine starts on June 7), and I'm doing my best to prepare for third year.While doing my end of summer routine, I realized that I should share some of my tips and tricks with you. I'll be telling you several important things you should do before the start of your school.

1) Clean your study area- Right. We all need one (a study area), where you'll be reading notes or doing homework. This place must be the most peaceful and serene place in your house; and the place must be nice and tidy. Over the summer, my study area became a place where I'd throw all my old books, notebooks and other pieces of scratch paper. Yesterday, I went over the things and decided on the things that I wanted to keep, sell or throw out. My table is relatively neat right now; and I think it's ready for school.

2) Buy a planner-Or at least a notebook where you can write down all the projects and homework you have for the day. You can't rely on memory alone when you're in school. Try getting one with a very colorful and vibrant design; that'll surely wake you up after a long day of answering what x is equal to, and what started the Cold War.

3) Skim through your books- I mean, honestly, don't take this the wrong way but you have to at least read the few pages of your books. You need to prepare yourself for what's to come this school year; mind you, it'll be much harder than the year before, this will be a good way to prepare for school. If you're really up for it, you might even try taking down some advanced notes.

So, there you have it. Three tips on how to get ready for school. Hope you found these very helpful! Good luck to all those whose school is about to start. You're going to need it.

LOLOLOLOL I should've done that.
Since I'm nearly at the end of the first semester... I can easily say that I have bombed out on 2.5 of the 3 things. 2.5 because I attempted to read my Bio book because I had summer homework, and because our school gave us diaries and mine has Effie Trinket in the back.

... I should never talk while sleepy. Okay.

At least you did .5 of the three. Well, I better do the last two now. I mean, I bought a journal. But it's not lovely like I would have wanted it to be. HAHA. And as for studying, only did that for Chem and English.
