It’s soo much easier for me to study with a friend or I become wayy bored and don’t feel like doing much of anything but falling asleep. I guess the main things I could do to help are adjust lighting, music and interest levels to match my study style and keep my brain open long enough to be effective. I also noticed if I make my own study guides one color text and one black & white text. It’s easier to stay interested with every key idea in a different font color.. maybe you should try it.. it made a big difference for me.. and instead of it rambling on it made more sense.. also if things are so cramped together it’s harder for me to focus so I try to space things out.. and to make it fun I take an old coloring book page rip it out shove it in the printer and print my study guide.. it gets rid of the negative white spaces while adding a cute image.. it works for me.. so maybe it’ll work for you?! I never thought this would help so much but it does! I’d try it.. also if you are looking for a studying tip where you ask questions and flip to see the answer you could find a double sided one slot per page photo album.. put questions or terms on one side of an index card and the answers on the other… flip the page and read the answers.. you can rearrange it’s easier to keep your information in one solid place while protecting your cards from getting ruined.. plus you can rearrange them however you want whenever you want.. I use one subject per album.. hope some if this helps.. if you need anything else.. just ask.. one more main thing I noticed is choose the right friend to study with, if you don’t they might get off topic a lot or you may be helping them more then they are helping you… yet it works both ways.. find an equal balance.. and ENJOY!

Over the summer I recently had a huge accomplishment of owning a treadmill, probably I’d say one of the best things I’ve ever done. It’s so helpful.. we have it sitting in an indoor porch where I can lookout the windows when I run… the good news is I don’t have to go outside where I fry to death of sunburn and get dehydrated but the bad news is.. I’ve used it so much the counters on it keep dying and I have to replace the battery…also my cat kinda freaks out when it works cuz of the noise it makes.. 0_o oh well.. still great!! :)
