My Back to School tips

Hey Guys,

So today I am going to start my Back to school series by doing my top tips about going back to school, so here goes.

Tip 1 - Uniform 

So this was a major issue at my secondary school and after buying so many different pairs of trousers and the teachers saying we can't wear them, so before you start back in september check your school's uniform policy or if you don't know ring the school up because you will probably find that someone in your school's reception will be in and will be able to tell you the uniform policy.

Tip 2 - Lunch 

So to keep your brain going during school you are going to make sure you are eating healthy and drinking. If you don't eat or drink you make yourself ill. Especially near exams you need to make sure you have left time to eat and drink. I didn't give myself time to eat and I ended up feeling dizzy and not being able to concentrate fully. So a major tip I would give to anyone, any age is to eat healthy and to keep hydrated.

Tip 3 - Equipment

You need to make sure you have the right equipment that you need for your lessons that day, don't take stuff that you don't need because it will just make your bag to heavy and you always see those year 7's that look like turtle's because there bags are massive because they have everything for the whole week in this one bag.

Tip 4 - Hair

You need to find hairstyles you find easy to do when your half asleep for me I just did a ponytail everyday because its what i found easy in the mornings but I know you guys can be much more creative. So here is an idea comment below your favourite hairstyles for school.

Tip 5 - Make up

I am not going to say don't wear makeup but if you are going to wear it don't wear loads, and make it look as if its natural so you will get away with it. Also if you are told that you are wearing to much don't wear as much as you wore that day.

Tip 6 - Watch

Wear a watch because you will always need to know the time, and you don't want to be late for your lessons. Being lessons we mean you will have less time for learning and could lead to you being punished and losing your breaks or lunches.

Tip 7 - Technology 

Laptops, tablets and phones can be really useful for research, but how ever during time for revision and homework they could be distractions. So when you need to revise turn off your laptop, phone and tablet, however technology can be useful because there are lots of apps and sites to help you revise but make sure you use them probably and don't cheat.

Tip 8 - Teachers

We all feel like teachers are there to make us ruin our lives, however they are there to improve our lives this is going to improve the jobs we are going to have when we are older. So don't be one of those students that doesn't behave, don't do their homework and just causes the teacher to be stressed and annoyed. This is ruins the teachers day and will affect the other classes they have to teach later that day.

Tip 9 - Homework

This might be really boring, however this could really improve your grade and its to prove that you have been understanding the work and that you will be okay to do tests and exams on the topic. So don't ignore it actually do it, its only your education you are risking.

Tip 10 - Help

Don't let yourself struggle with the work that you are doing actually ask for help, or use BBB. 

B is for Book. Look through your book and see if any past work could help you with this piece of work.

B is for Buddy. If the person next to you understands it ask them if they would explain it to you.

B is for Boss. If the last two options have not helped as your teacher for help.

Tip 11 - Revision

Don't expect to pass with last minute revision or no revision. Give yourself time to revise at least a couple of months this will help you digest more information. Also if you don't understand something it gives you time to ask your teacher about it. Also try different techniques to see what suits you best.

The 11 questions that Maddie asked me!

If you could buy one thing in the whole world what would it be?

If I could buy one thing in the whole world it would be something for charity, so something like a wheel chair for someone who needs one and can't one, or something that will help someone.

Would you rather read a book or watch a film? 

This is a really hard one because some books are better than the films and some films are better than the books. So I am going to have to say read a book just because it allows me to imagine I am somewhere else. 

How long does your daily makeup routine take?

I have recently changed my make up routine again so its now different to the youtube video I filmed about two weeks ago, but I am going to guess somewhere between 20 minutes to half an hour depending how I do it and what products I wear.

Why did you start blogging?

This summer I had 12 weeks off and I wanted to able to do something productive so I started a blog and a youtube channel and also it gives me somewhere to but my actual thoughts down and actually communicate to people seen as I am not so good at that in person.

Favourite film?

Right now it has to be 'The Fault In Our Stars' I loved this film and the book and I watched it about a week ago and as soon as I came out the cinema I wanted to watch it again, so I will definitely be buying the DVD when it is out.

 

Who is your favourite Youtuber or Blogger?

This an easy one to answer because mine is my idol and she is my favourite youtuber and blogger and that is Zoe Sugg, aka zoella. She is so good at beauty and hair all her tutorials are amazing, and also she is amazing advice in which I find useful, if you watch her videos you will definitely guess because its her well known one at the moment.  

Favourite makeup brand?

My favorite drug store makeup brand at the moment is MUA, all there products are really cheap and they are all amazing products, However my favourite more expensive makeup brand is Benefit there products are just amazing and all do what they are meant to so thats an added benefit to the products and they look amazing when you're wearing them. 

Bargain Hunter or Big Spender?

Big spender, I spend so much on clothes and makeup. Everyone will say this I have more money than sense especially when ever I go to Nottingham I will be in the Jack Wills shop making a purchase.

Favourite sweets/candy?

I rarely eat sweets because of the amount of sugar and I am on a permanent diet, but when I do eat sweets it would be chocolate or jelly beans but they take me ages to eat.

Favourite season of the year?

This another difficult one because I love the weather in summer, But I love the Holidays in Winter because of christmas and my birthday. However I don't like the weather in winter because the cold gives me chilblains. I can't decide which is my favorite so I am going to say both winter and summer.

Biggest pet peeve?

It would have to be when people think its all about themselves and don't care about anyone else and expect to have the attention on  them all the time. Also when people use people, good example of this is when you are really close to someone everyday and then as soon as you are part they won't talk to you ever again, so basically fake friends.
