I guess I cannot take something to an end. I always stop doing it... I guess I am not done for that.

How do you keep yourself motivated to study for a class when the teacher or professor is bad (i.e. mean or doesn’t teach effectively)?

I try to think that it’s for my best, it’s for me. I try to understand what’s the idea and if I don’t understand how (s)he teaches I search others methods. Like videos and materials on Internet, nowadays it’s pretty easy to find materials on Internet.

May is AP Exam season! What are your tips for studying for tests?

I like studying aloud. So, you’ll see me walking around the room, talking to myself, and explaining what I have to study. I like to let my note on the table and only watch them if I really can’t remember something. I also want to understand what I am studying. 

My tip is to study your own way. Every person is different and if wor me memorizing doesn’t work, maybe for you it does. Or not. Maybe you can understand the things by making a story or drawing. ;)

3rd of May Delay -_-

Hello. It’s the 4th of May, but I didn’t answer yesterday because I had such a long and full day. I went at the faculty at 8 and came back home at 6:30, after that I just ate and went out again for my volunteer activities. 

I will answer today the question for the 3rd of May because is quite an important one

What are your goals for this month?

My goals for this month are to finish writting my thesis, that’s a really important one. If I don’t finish, I’ll have to wait until february to present it. I also have others goals, like reading news and also working on my romanian and english vocabulary. It’s a busy month but hey! It’s for my own good :)

What’s your life philosophy, in one paragraph or less?

Do not judge, not just with words but also with actions. I don’t like when a person is being judge becouse of his/her race- sexuality- colour- religion- opinions- gender, etc. I think that we are a big united planet and we should understand that by doing those things we are not going to be okay...

Describe where you want to be right now (academically or otherwise).

I would like to be settled. To be brave enough to do my thing, do as I think, tell the word my opinion. I would like to be more determinate. Academically I would like to see myself finishing this career and pursuing my dream that is a Master of Interpretation.

Memory Tips

Study repeatedly - Overlearn. Take advantage of life’s little intervals (i.e.- riding the bus, walking, waiting in the grocery checkout line)

Spend time actively thinking about material - Exercise weak memories with rehersal and critical reflection. No skimming!

Make material personally meaningful - Write notes in your own words. Form as many cue associations (i.e.- images, experiences) as possible! 

Use mnemonic devices for lists - Associate items with peg words, create a vivid story involving the items, or chunk items into acronyms 

Refresh your memory by activating cues - Mentally re-create situations/moods where you orginally learned the material or physically return to the location 

Minimize interferences - Study about an hour before sleep. Don’t study similar subjects back-to-back (i.e.- Studying Spanish then French right after) 

Test your knowledge - Don’t be overconfident about recalling the material. Test yourself with the learning objectives. You can outline sections, define terms/concepts, create practice tests, or explain the topic to a friend without using your notes

Psychology: 8th Edition by David G. Myers, Chapter 9 - Memory 

[dae-andreea]

Don’t forget that you are your own motivation and determination. Think about you, push yourself, have initiative, try hard! You don’t need anyone to motivate yourself, be you and think why are you doing this.

Be careful. Don’t kill yourself. If it is important, try hard but not too hard. You deserve to be happy, now and in the future.

May is here

So, May starts tomorrow and as a perfectionist that I am, I didn’t write a word for my thesis today, I will start tomorrow. But today I am productive ^.^ 

I am doing my homework for next week (takes a lot of time...) and I hope I’ll finish everything today so next week I’ll just have to go to the faculty and write for my thesis. :) 

Also, as you can see in the picture I ate something reaaaaally good today :)

I did my month planner and I got some beautiful flowers from my grandma’s garden ^.^ (I LOVE LILAC)

Hello

First of all. After doing this account and putting my blog name I realized that it’s really creepy LOL So I would like to let you know why my blog is called 22child. So, I am 22 LOL, but I consider myself a child. I behave like a child in some cases, for exemple, I like to talk with that baby voice sometimes. And people look at me weird haha

Also, I started loving to draw and I bought a drawing notebook and I started darwing hihi. So yeah, I am a child and I love being like this ^.^
