Back to school tips🌹

Alright y'all, with school season comin back, here are some prime hoe tips to get y'all ready to slay.

🌹1. Develop a skincare regimen at least once daily: wash, exfoliate*, mask*, toner, essential oils, moisturize. *once weekly, to avoid overshocking your skin. 🌙2.Tea tree oil is bomb for acne and acne scars. Apply that shit.

🌹 Coconut oil and castor oil for brow/lash growth every night.

🌙Go through your closet, and toss clothes you don’t wear. Invest in more neutral colors and fits to configure a wider variety of cute ass outfits.

🌹 Don’t be afraid to thrift shop; places like TJ Maxx and The Goodwill have bomb ass brands for cheap.

🌙 Get your books/supplies ready a week before. Prepare yourself.

🌹 Have all of your test dates/assignment due dates in your phone before classes start. Make sure to request off days of work the nights before major assignments and exams if you can help it.

🌙 Things to keep in a bag in your locker: pads/tampons, an extra pair of panties, a spare change of clothes & shoes(in case of a wardrobe malfunction), hairbrush and hairtie, nail file & clippers, makeup remover wipes, concealer, masacara, gum, water bottle, extra pens, some spare cash, phone charger, and earbuds.

🌹 Keep a water bottle in ya bag at all times. A hoes gotta be hydrated.

🌙 Keep up with ya studies

🌹 A week before school starts, develop getting sleep schedule for school by going to bed half an hour earlier every night. This’ll make waking up earlier less of a hell, trust me.

🌙Have a go-to makeup look for school that takes 30 mins or less as a default, if you beat your face in the morning.

🌹 Replace coffee with tea for a more healthy caffeine fix before class.

🌙 Prepare yourself a decent breakfast before you go to bed, so you can easily grab and go in the morning. Breakfast kickstarts your metabolism and decreases cravings throughout the day, and generally boosts your mood and brain power.

🌹If you wear a uniform, make sure that shit is comfortable and actually fits you. Make sure nothing hangs off of you, cuts off circulation, itches, irritates, etc.

🌙Need a break from studying? Work out. Burn some calories, clear your mind, and stimulate your brain with some exercise. Swear to god this keeps my grades up and my body lookin fly.

🌹Invest in a hair mask (any pharmacy or makeup outlet will have them), or make one yourself. They make your hair super soft and shiny for flipping it when you walk past that group of girls who hate you lol

Thats all I can think of for now beauties, get good grades, I believe in all of y'all✨🌹

41/100 days of productivity +  WED 8.3.16 // 7:33 am

Getting a head start on my bujo for next year 📖 ;; feeling pumped!

[hummustudy]

#70DAYSCHALLENGE Day 29: Owe you guys an update. Not been feeling very well lately but need to clock my study hours. Productivity is low af. Hope I'll get better quickly. (If you're in SG, stay healthy & don't catch the bug!)

[hummustudy]

#70DAYSCHALLENGE Day 22: Got a wake up call but still half asleep. Need to get my shit together! (48 days left!!!!!) Today was probably the most productive because it's been crazy busy the past few days & it'll only get busier. Sighs.

[cwote]

Yay for you (and me)!! 😊

[hummustudy]

#70DAYSCHALLENGE Day 18: Today was probably the most productive of all the previous days. Revised econs for a test tomorrow. Progressively getting more tired and less organised as the days pass. Going to trudge on!

If anything, admitting when you don’t fully understand something displays curiosity for learning. So keep asking those questions!

06.29.17 // the academic year is over, and since i’m about to start using a new bullet journal, i thought i’d share my last one. here’s a snapshot of my favorite spreads this year.

destroy the idea that intermediate goals aren’t important. maybe you can’t play the entire piano piece yet, but you can play the right hand and that’s good. maybe you haven’t figured out your major yet, but your minor or your field and that’s progress. maybe you can’t hold a full conversation in your target language yet, but you can ask for directions and that’s fine. setting high goals is good, but don’t diminish the small goals you achieve on your way there. they are just as important.

[hummustudy]

#70DAYSCHALLENGE Day 15: Oops!! Skipped a few days. Productivity decreased and must go up! I find that weekends are the hardest because all you want to do is lie in bed like a log. Sigh.

College Resources

Scholarships:

Scholarships are something a lot of people overlook but they are super easy to get. I personally used ScholarshipOwl, its really easy to use and it tells you what scholarships you are eligible for.

Amazon Prime:

You can get Amazon Prime free for 6 months if you are a student. That includes all of the perks such as prime video and fast shipping. All you have to do is verify your school email and you don’t need to make a new account if you already have one.

Books:

You can save so much money buying your books online instead of going to your local book store. If you go to the book section of Ebay you should be able to find most of the books you need.

Grammarly:

If you send a lot of emails or write a lot of essays then you should give Grammarly a try. It’s an extension for google chrome and it helps with your grammar and helps you write mistake-free, suggests different words and it even explains all of your mistakes.

Unidays:

If you are looking for discounts try Unidays. Sign up with your school email and you can get discounts for so many stores.

Spotify:

If you are tired of downloading each song and listening to ads then you should get Spotify for students. It is only $5 a month and it will save you so much time and you can listen to music offline unlike the free version.

Kodi:

Instead of paying for netflix, hulu or going on those free streaming websites filled with ads and popups give kodi a try. It’s free, fast and has no ads. All you have to do is install kodi then install the plugin exodus. Once your done you will be able to watch any shows and movies.

i will never judge someone for taking longer than 4 years to graduate from a university. i don’t know their reason & their situation.

soooo if you’re taking a little longer, keep going. you got this. take your time if you have to.
