Busy Times with Zara Larsson

Hey Guys, 

I have been asked by one of my anonymous friends if I can help with studying. Now I know what you are thinking, 'Minnie, what has this got to do with Zara Larsson?' well, here's the point. So me and Param are revising for some VERY vital tests right now and we find it super boring to revise for them. So I thought about how we can make it more fun to revise for these tests or whatever assessments we have. So me and Param are in two different sets but I don't know about her but I have a history assessment and I have a very BIG maths test. I find it really hard to concentrate during my studying. Zara Larsson is literally the ONLY thing that helps me! So here are some ideas for studying. 

1. As you can see in the picture above, I went to Starbucks for a coffee and a study time. Doing your work somewhere else is SO much easier, like the library or something. That makes you less tempted to do anything else because you know, that its not your house or place. You know that there are other people there and that theres nothing else to do. That makes you less tempted to do anything else besides your work.

2. The next one is something I always do. Listening to Zara Larsson on my headphones is always so upbeat and nice and quick. It helps me so much with my work and also speeds up the process. It's like magic! You should try, too! I would also like to know which headphones you lot have?! I use the usual apple earphones but something I really want are the 'i.am buttons' they are apple earphones which Will.I.Am designed and I think they are beautiful. Rose gold is my favourite colour but me being me, I want everything to match my phone. So I want the gold ones.

3. So the next thing that you can do, is take a laptop. I don't know if you - reading this has a laptop to work on but my mum gave me her MacBook Air so I usually work on that most of the time. In my office, my older brother also brought down his huge computer and his Zeppelin Wireless but I usually really like using my laptop. I mostly use my laptop when I am revising somewhere else and I try to force myself to not use any social media on it while I am in Starbucks or the library. I have this one...

4. The next step is something that I usually find difficult to do. Leave your phone at home. I currently don't have my phone but I am getting it back in July but I usually used to leave it at home and try and not need it. I have message on my laptop so that it okay and I have FaceTime. I would love to know which phone you lot have?! Mine is an iPhone...

5. Now this is an optional step. Sometimes I like doing this and sometimes I don't. 'Bring a Friend'. I only do this sometimes with one of my friends. I sometimes do it because its nice having someone to test you and someone to help you out but sometimes I don't because we get carried away and start taking selfies! But if you want to bring a friend you can do something I really like doing, FaceTime them! Thats probably the best option! FaceTime while doing your work on your macbook listening to tunes. You shouldn't do it all the time when you are studying because you need some time to yourself. 

6. The one I think is one of the best things to do is before you start to study, make yourself fresh and ready by taking a shower or a relaxing bath. Thats probably my favourite thing to do. That makes you ready to start some hard work! I usually get my products from 'Lush' or 'The Body Shop' but for christmas, my sister brought me some Happy Jackson fizz bars... 

 

Another thing you can do while listening to Zara Larsson! 

So those are some of my tips and tricks for studying! 

I love you all so much! See you next week!

BTW: If you are looking at the first pic of the coffee cup at starbucks and wondering - 'That says Amelia! Not Minnie!' well, Amelia is my full name but everyone calls me Minnie or Millie. My nicknames are usually Minnie Minstrel or Millie Malteasters! But yeah, the only place people call me Amelia is at school! X
