I know I usually start off each Blog with a little new fact or song or some other tidbit of information that I find interesting so here you go...

I have a new favorite song!! (Yes, I have a new favorite song every week but, hey, I like music what can I say!)... Check out The Script "The man who can't be moved". They are a band from Ireland and kinda sound like John Legend. It sounds weird but I like them and this song, so if you are bored, Check it out!!

Hey All,

Well, one week down, five more to go in the school year! I honestly can't believe my junior year is almost over. It is crazy how fast college flies by. However, I have loved every minute of it!!! ok, except for the homework part :) !

Anyway, this past week, I have pretty much been trying to stay on top of all the end of the year homework that has been piling on. Sometimes you can get overwhelmed and think there are not enough hours in the day to get all of your work done but trust me, a good deep breath and some determination does a college student good. I have been perfecting my homework habits since Freshman Year and I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to share some of them with you...

1) Do you homework where you are comfortable. Sometimes people (like myself) can't work in a quiet room, like the library, or an incredibly noisy room, like the cafeteria. I tend to do my homework in my apartment because that is where I can put on my sweatpants and feel incredibly "at home" and comfortable. It's your choice but don't study or do homework anywhere where you are not comfortable and can't concentrate.

2) Keep a running To Do List! I make To Do Lists for everything but especially for homework. Whenever you get a new assignment, make sure you add it to your list or a calendar that you look at daily. This will help you to stay on top of assignments and not have to pull the dreaded "ALL NIGHTERS" that people always relate to college. (I have never pulled an all nighter! and yes I am proud of that).

3) Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today! Trust me, in college something always comes up and throws off your groove. If you are sitting around, watching tv, try to get some work done. This will be helpful when a new, fun activity comes up and you want to go. You will get your work done early so you will have more free time to do the fun stuff!!

Well, I hope these tips are useful to you because I know they help me. Anyway, this weekend is Easter and yes I am NOT going home :( . I guess that is the price I have to pay for living 6 hours away. I will tell you guys all about it next week!

Until Then... Bye!!!

Em :)
