September is officially here, aka back-to-school. We just need to accept the fact that the majestic summer is now over and be ready for school! Being organised is key when you're attending school especially in the first few weeks. It can really make a massive difference whether it's your mood or the progress of your learning, which is pretty important if you're moving onto Secondary Schools or higher years. So, the list down below is my opinions on what you can do to keep yourself organised throughout the year.
1) Diary/Planner/Notebook
If your school provides you with a free planner, excellent! If they don't, well a diary or a planner will be your best friend for the whole school year. Having a planner is what's going to keep you the organised the most, since it allows you to note down and keep in track of the due dates for your homework or events that will be occurring. In addition to this, having a notebook is as well crucial not only to your organisation but your learning too. It's where you're going to record down all the notes and the important information you've acquired from your lessons. You don't have to get something expensive and fancy-pantsy, just get one that's affordable, and what your heart desires.
2) Timetable
Always look after your timetable as if it's a piece of treasure! Because forgetting what lessons you have particularly in the first few weeks is inevitable. Therefore, your timetable will be your greatest assistant as it shows you the lessons you have to make sure you're never late! I suggest you keeping your timetable somewhere that is easy to reach for but somewhere that is also safe. For example, you can keep it in your inside blazer pocket, or a zipped pocket on the outside of your bag.
3) NO Procrastination
Procrastination is a part of our human nature and is something we bound to experience at some stage of our lives and it's exceedingly normal.If you do struggle with procrastination, I advice you to write down the list of things you must accomplish either on a post-it note or set it as a reminder on your phone. As a result, the tasks you need to do will be completed with a lot more effort and consideration, since you didn't rush. Honestly, from my own personal experiences, getting things out of the way earlier can really relief you can leaves you with so much less stress. For example, if you know your approximate exam dates, revise a month or even earlier beforehand can help you to achieve the grades you're content with rather than leave it all to revise the night before.
4) Organise Your Bag the Night Before.
A fantastic way to avoid being late to your lesson in the morning is to pack your bag the night before you go to sleep. Therefore, even if your're late in the morning, you don't have to worry about packing your bag, which then saves you a ton of time to get ready. If you're like me, you're anxious of what you might have left out during your packing process, you can always make a list of items you wanted to bring and check in the morning.
5) Keep Your Stationary in One
Some of you might be too lazy to bring a pencil case with you to school, but having a pencil case for you is essential for you to be able to keep all your stationary safe and organised. Letting them loose in your bag can increase the chance of them staining your books, clothes or your bag. You don't want that to happen, do you...?
Now, let's talk about the formula! The formula of this nail polish is not amazing, but it's pretty decent enough for you to have a smooth process of applying it onto your nails. I used two coats of it, but you can certainly get away with one depending on your personal preference. Something that I'm not 100% satisfied with is its lasting power. The second day after I applied it, it chipped on the tips of my nails already! But it's nothing major at all.
