Listening to: Motivation by Sum41
Mood: Focused

Ok so since the last time a wrote a whole lot of craziness has gone down! Here is a quick overview of life since then......

We had our first big exam in lecture which me and my friends studied for from 5 in the afternoon to about 1 in the morning and then before class for about two hours. And long story short got an 85 which I was quite proud of. It was a good learning experience to say the least. Now I have a general idea of how much to study, what to study, and the best method.

Here are some of the things which we did, that I thought were helpful...

1. Read over your notes on your own
2. Have someone else go over the notes while you listen and ask questions
3. Make Flashcards
4. Test each other with flashcard
5. Reread flashcard out loud before moving on to next one
6. Draw small diagrams of buildings
7. Type notes from class
8. Highlight and or take notes while reading your textbook
9. Take notes in lecture....good ones
10. Remember to sleep

Lets see other than that we have made a few models, done tonnnssssss of drawing, and well realized there just isn't enough time in the day. But our next exam is coming soon which is why I felt that this blog would be beneficial to write and hope that maybe it could help some of the readers who were looking for a new study method.

OHHH and DEFINATELY FORM A STUDY GROUP!! It sounds lame, I know, but it keeps you on track and you wont get distracted on facebook or myspace or looking out the window or cleaning your room for the first time or any other way to procrastinate or should I say .."plan to study after [ FILL IN HERE ] "

So thats all I have to say about that! Peace out!!!! and gooooodddddd luck on the next one
