TIPS FOR COLLEGE FRESHMEN

-

 Tips for incoming college freshmen. I honestly wish I would have taken those college blogs I read the summer before my first year in college more seriously. My brain kept telling me that I would be fine, and that college was just like high school. I thought that I could get away with barely making it-THAT IS NOT THE CASE! College and high school are way different.

Here are a few tips that I have taken from my personal experience in my first year in college. 

Happy Reading :)


Do Not Put Off Work Until The Last Minute

Take it from me, hun, it is not a good feeling when you have to miss a deadline because you thought it was a good idea to wait until the night an assignment is due to do it. 

My first year was a complete mess! Harder than it should have been because I was lazy and felt like I could finish three assignments all on the day that they were due. I refused to focus and put things off as a result. 

Trust me, sis, you'll feel so much better if you just get that math assignment out of the way. Your grades will thank you.


Study

This goes without saying. YOU CANNOT PASS A TEST IF YOU DO NOT STUDY (screaming this to myself, chile).

Get you some cute study materials, print out your notes, and find you a good study spot. There's even videos that show you how to study effectively. 


Well, these are the only two tips I have for now. I know it's not a bunch, but I promise these two will take you far. Don't worry, i'm starting to follow my own advice and those of others. Let's thrive together, friend!

BOOK REVIEW: THE OBSESSION

-

  The Obession by Jesse Q Sutanto: BOOK REVIEW *POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD!!!* Description: “Logan thinks he and Delilah are meant to be. So, he does everything he can to learn about her. Delilah thinks it’s downright creepy. Plus, she’s got deadly secrets that she’d rather stay hidden.” Favorite Quote: “He’d pretended to put her back together, but his glue turned out to be poison too.” My thoughts: There were so many creepy vibes coming from Logan the second I opened the book. Of course, I wasn’t surprised. Logan was pretty delusional about his relationship with Delilah. He honestly thought that she had, or would have, feelings for him. The sad moments I felt were for Delilah and her mom. I hated the mom’s boyfriend, Brandon. He was such a jerk, bruh. Anyways…  Ratings: Thrill- ⅖ Emotion: ⅗ Overall: ⅘ I gave this a different rating on my bookstagram,  buuuutttt after re-thinking it, the book was still good just not five stars. Doesn’t mean it was horrible I just feel like ...

GOOD GRIEF

-
  The sun peeked through the black curtains in my room, signaling another chance to meet new people. I wasn't in the mood to make friends, though. I've got all I need right in my bed. Rolling over and attempting to forget about the world seemed very tempting. I did just that, and, man, it felt so calming. For a moment the reminder that my family was hosting yet another funeral was in the back of my mind. Then it hit me. Fresh tears began to stream down my face, erasing evidence of the old ones. My chest began to tighten, and the familiar feeling of grief took over my entire body. A sore throat stopped any sound from coming from my mouth. All I could do was cry silently and pray that God, himself, heard me.  The new morning process had become repetitive at this point: open eyes, cry, ask questions, cry again, hide from the world.  I should fully understand what's happening by now. It should've hit me that there was another death in the family, but that's not what I...

AUTHOR/BLOGGER NEWBIE TAG

  Author/Blogger Newbie Tag I’m fairly new to the authortube/blogger community, and have had trouble finding a way to fully break in. Earlier this month I did a #preptober “Outline with Me” livestream over on my YouTube channel. You can check it out here .  These are some questions that I came up with on my own. I made this tag up from the top of my head. I sincerely apologize if this tag ends up being similar to one created by someone else. It is purely coincidental.  Without further ado, let’s get into it!! Why did you start an authortube/blog? I wanted to meet people with similar interests to mine. I’m an introvert and I thought joining this community alongside doing NaNoWriMo would be perfect. Give us info about your current WIP. My current project is titled: I Am Royalty. It is a YA Fiction Novella about a 17 year old girl that finds out the king of the country she resides in is actually her father. So, she goes to live with him at the palace. Of course, she has trou...
