I spend a lot of
time focusing on college study tips, and that is really important that we take the time to remember our OC babies!
Homework, study hall, drivers ed,
curfews, and the potential to get grounded.
That’s right, this post is all
about studying in high school!
Plan Ahead.
First and
foremost, I’ll start this post like I start every post: Have a planner and use
it religiously! (I just happen to know of a great one). But for me, high school was always a little harder to plan for because there was no full course syllabus at the beginning of the year.
Dates for
quizzes, tests, assignments, homework, (and substitute teachers) can sneak up
on you… especially with 6+ classes a day! Don’t forget all the extracurricular
stuff, plus bringing money for fundraisers, field trips, etc. So keep your
planner with you at all times and write down EVERYTHING as soon as you hear
about it!
Use a mechanical
pencil just in case things change (which they will). Also, use a highlighter
system to keep you on track:
Yellow = In
Progress
Pink = Complete
Set a Timer.
When you get home
from school every day, set a timer and work high priority to low priority!
So…either start with the thing that’s due the soonest or the thing that’s worth
the most points.
I played
competitive sports in high school, so sometimes I didn’t even get home until
10:00. There was no way I was getting ALL the homework done EVERY night, so I
just went with the top priority items.
So, if I didn’t
make it to that 5 point worksheet by the next day, it wasn’t really that big of
a deal.
(I also knew
which teachers would give me extra credit for bringing in extra boxes of
tissues. God bless you, Ms. Parker)
Perfect Your Time Management.
Manage your time
as wisely as possible. High school is full of important schoolwork and every
day feels like it’s the most stressful one ever (or at least, that was my
experience). At the end of the day, make sure that you’ve also allowed yourself
the balance to actually enjoy your friends, football games, dances, etc.
Work for 30
minutes at a time then give yourself a 5 minute break. Also, work smarter, not
harder. A lot of teachers assign similar assignments, so don’t be afraid to
“piggyback” off of your prior projects and just make it a little better each
time!
Even though it’s been (ahem) a while since I’ve been in high school, I definitely remember it was a high stress time… Having 3 lockers (one in each building), literally running to class carrying 30 books to make it before my teacher locked the door, and (most importantly), trying to catch up on the details of every little daily drama between classes.
If it feels a
little overwhelming right now, just remind yourself that college will be here
before you know it and things get SO. MUCH. BETTER. :D

Within a few days my results were back and my diagnosis confirmed.... I had HSV2. I felt angry and betrayed because he had not been honest with me and I had a feeling that he knew he had it based on how he responded when I gave him the news.Fast forward to a year down the track and I finally broke free of my drug addiction and my extremely toxic relationship, but I felt tainted and overwhelmed now more than ever by this condition. So I sucked it up and decided I would not live like this - despite every person I talked to about it saying that herpes was incurable, once you had it you had it for the rest of your life, blah blah blah. I knew this was bullshit. Deep down I trusted my body and I wasn't about to let anyone tell me what was and was not possible for me to achieve once I set my mind to it.
