Hi guys! Today, I am gonna be sharing some life hacks for school with you. These will definitely help you as they surely helped me!! You don't need to stress anymore on school and you can just be happy! This definitely will make your life easier and more fun. Life doesn't have to be perfect. It has to be fun and enjoyable and these hacks will certainly make you achieve that. Right! I think I've done enough talking so let's dive in!!
1. Create a playlist to jam to!
Are you always late to school? If you are always late to school, and you suffer from waking up thinking you are a vampire, then create a playlist to jam to. This will help you do thing s quicker, and get a lot more things done in time. Find something upbeat; they are the best music to listen to in the mornings and they boost your endorphins. I recommend Spotify as it suggests and there is a wide range of music, from R&B to Acoustics and you can rock your dance moves with that. So definitely create a playlist to jam to!!! ;)
2. Schedule all the important plans the night before
This is a great way to be organised. You can write it down or keep it in your head. This not only helps you to be happy and determined, but is capable of getting more things done quicker. You'll feel excited and obstinate to get up in the mornings. Don't worry! It doesn't need to be those schedules which are dull and boring. You can fill it with colour, use felt tips or even draw little pictures. Make it exciting! Make it fun-filled!
3. Count the hours you sleep; Wake up early!
When you are almost about to sleep, see how many hours of sleep you get. Sleep is very important and teenagers should get around 8-9 hours of sleep, adults have to have 7 hours and kids have to have the minimum of 9-10 hours of sleep. If you wake up early, you are able to do more stuff in the mornings and you will wake up fresh. You can finish any extra homework, practise piano or even do some exercise. Apparently, morning is the best time to do any exercise. So do that if you want! Also, have a delicious breakfast that is creative and unique and also healthy!
Don't always have that plain old cereal! ;)
4. Trying to remember a word?
Apparently, if you clench your fists then you can remember more. It helps with increasing brain activity and also even improves memory. Also, when you are researching that word, then write it down so you can look back at it over and over again. Your brain is full of a lot of words, so don't worry! This really helps by the way! And when you do this you could pretend to be angry. ;) It would be funny if you videoed it! But then you wouldn't be concentrating, would you? ;)
5. Chew Gum!
I know sometimes it's bad to chew gum, but that's only if you chew it over and over again; then you age! :/ So if you feel that you are struggling and you are nervous about an exam, chew a piece of gum that you don't normally have while you're studying( strawberry and Hubba Bubba), and then have that same type of chewing gum while you are putting all your efforts into an exam. You will remember lots more and you will feel much more happier!

7. Different Languages!
If you are struggling in your homework for let's say French, then all you have to do is use flashcards. These are a simple but effective way and they keep you concentrated and there is no quicker way to memorize ALL those words. Also, read out loud! Don't worry about the pronunciation and speed; focus on accuracy. In addition, apply grammar rules in practise problems(more than one) and do them over the next couple of days. I do recommend to use this website called "https://www.duolingo.com/ and it is free so go check it out!
7. Hide any distractions!
If you are addicted to your phone, this is a good one. It doesn't have to be a phone though; it could be your Ipad, Books, Kindles, Ipod, FOOD or even your laptop! You have to concentrate on finishing what you're doing, then you can do these things. I might get a little tempted(maybe a lot)on the cupcakes though; I would admit! :T If you hide them, you can do a lot more things! Just don't forget or your life is ruined! ;)
8. Sweets on the page!
This is a great learning technique because you are eager to have those sweets and it's like a reward. So you put it on the end of your test or your homework and when you work for hours with effort and hard work, you are rewarded with a sweet! Although I will admit myself that it's a little tempting!! And for each subject you can reward yourself with a different type of sweet. It doesn't have to be sweets! It could be anything! I started this a few weeks ago, and it really helped me!
9+10. Treat Yourself!
Treat yourself! There is a time to work and time to relax.
You are awesome and you NEED your free time where you can do anything that is in your favour! Every once in a while, do something fun! Whether it's watching a movie to just a simple shopping day out with your friends, there is nothing that can stop you. Even sleeping in would be amazing! Another thing I do to treat myself is to eat cupcakes! If you don't know me, whenever I get the time, I watch Zoella and my other favourite youtubers, while eating the most delicious cupcake that melts in my mouth.
I also love relaxing in an Instagram-worthy bath with those house-warming candles and that glorious bath bomb that dissolves into heaven. Reading your magazine, watching TV, spending time with your family; these are all the ways to treat yourself!
Those were all the life hacks that I wanted to share with you guys! There is so many more flooding in my brain waiting to be heard but I only promised my self to do 10. I will definitely do a part 2 of this if you want it. Just remember to have fun in life, live in the present and smile! Bye for now!
You're most certainly welcome! Thank you for reading this post and bye for REAL now! <3 LOVE YOU!!! :)
