"I shall pass through this life but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness I can show, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall never pass this way again."


- Etienne De Grellet


I think this quote means that when you're living to care. Be nice to your neighbors and to yourself. Because life can be short and what you want to do is live it at it's best.

How I Deal with Multiple Projects/Tests: When I have more than on 
test or project, I break up my studying. I will study for one test 30 minutes or so and then switch to the other one. If there is some part of the project that I know will not take me very long, I will do it when I don’t have much time. If I am in crunch for time on a specific day, I will study for one test in the morning and the other in the afternoon or night. By breaking up the studying into different sections, I feel like I get much more done. Cram sessions do not work for me. I need to study something for a shorter period of time more often for it to sink in.

Andy Warhol.

Andy Warhol

     


Andy Warhol's art was Unique and Colorful. It Stands Out. Theres a 'Pop' to His Art that becomes Admiring because of the Colors. I think that He was Beyond Creative.

My Time Management Secret: My secret is to use time wisely. I know that on certain days I do not have time to run errands or hang out with friends even. Each minute of each day is used for something. One thing that works really well for me is to write everything down. I mean everything. I write down if I’m going to email people, write letters, or study. It works for me to have a planner that goes by the day and shows me what I am going to be every day. Knowing what I have to do every day helps me plan out my week and my days. If I know I don’t have time on Tuesday, I’ll try to get more things done on Monday or Sunday. I plan ahead, especially if I am going to on the road for volleyball. When I am on the road, I bring my books and read on the bus/plane/hotel room. Missing class is killer to make up from, but if you are upfront with the professors, they are usually nice about having to turn in things late or not being in classes.

What I Did During Break ...


What I Did During Break ...

The First Week was pretty Lame because I basically did nothing at all but watch T.V , Eat , and Sleep. Then I started helping around the House. It was Christmas Eve and my Mom woke me up to help Her. We went to the Store to by my Outfit. I bought a Decent Dress with a Coat. She was Nice enough to buy me some Shoes as Well. At Night We left to my Mom's Boyfriend's Sister's House where His whole Family was. I felt Nice still I felt kind of Sad, like if I were missing something. I asked my Mom if I could visit my Uncle, whom I call 'papito' and lives one house down where my Mom's Boyfriend's Sister lives. i spent about half an hour with Him. I had bought a gift for Him too. I went back where my Mom was. We ate 'pozole', a traditional Mexican soup. At Midnight We all Hugged Each other and later opened our gifts and everyone was smiling and cheering. I was content with my presents. Days Later it was New Year's Eve. We had a Party and I invited my Best Friend Jackie. We had Fun and She Slept Over. It was New Years. Jackie then left when one of my Old Friends came over with Her Family. I wasn't all that Happy that She cam because I had plans with Jackie. But they brought me a Gift which I liked and I did enjoy spending time with Herr, since I did miss Her. She gave me a Book('8 Ways to say I Love My Life'), that Her Mom wrote with other Authors. We watched Movies, Talked, and We took a Nap. I read the section where my old Friend's Mom wrote. It was really Inspirational...

My Test Study Method: When it comes time to study for the test, I usually start 2-3 days before the test. I go through my notes and make flashcards on what was important to those sections, paying special attention to what the teacher said would be on the test if there was a review session. Also, I go through the book and read the inset stories and add to my flashcards, if there are practice problems or online assignments or old tests, I use those to help me study for the test as well. Once the test is over, I keep the flashcards so that I can have them for the next test or the final. Flashcards are a marvelous learning tool. The key to remembering something is to repeat times-spaced rehearsal. If you forget something, it is because you haven’t repeated it enough times for an extended period of time. Repetition is the law of learning; therefore, to learn and remember, to recall, it is mandatory that you repeat over and over the things you desire to learn and remember. You may be thinking, “Oh, no, repeating something.” You need to get used to it. For example, the more you practice a song on the piano, the better you become at playing that song. Learning and remembering is like playing the piano-the more you practice saying or doing it the better you can remember it. Look now at what you remember. You remember it because you have repeated it numerous times since first being exposed to it. So, practice rehearsing those things you desire to remember, and they will stick with you.

Practice à Proficiencyà Pleasure

The better you remember, the more pleasure you obtain from studying and learning.
