The Final Stretch: 2 – Fight Back!

Lovely weather we’re having, eh? But the bright side to this horrid snow in late April is that it stops me (and everyone else really) from taking advantage of the nice weather we just had. Last week, I told you all about senioritis. This week, I’m going to tell you how I’ve been coping with my case of senioritis!

Since the weather is just dreadful, I’ve no longer been out much in the sun (we haven’t seen much sun regardless though). Instead, I’ve been able to accomplish more homework and be more focused. So, without further ado, here are some ways (that I’ve been using this past week) to cope with senioritis!

Study Library

1) Work With Others: Whether it be with classmates or friends, you’re more likely to keep each other on track since we usually feel bad about distracting others from their work. So, in a roundabout way, it gets everyone to focus on their own work more.

2) Plan A Work Schedule: Set out certain times for yourself where you will focus completely on your work (as in, zero distractions…keep that phone away!). Don’t forget to give yourself breaks too! Focused work sessions are usually much more productive than doing your work while multitasking.

3) Work At The Library: When you’re at the library, you’re hopefully not being distracted by any new tweets from Twitter or new Facebook status updates because you won’t be at the computer…or that’s how I spend my time at the library anyways. I don’t get any work done with MSN, Facebook, Twitter, and etc open on my computer at home, so when I’m at the library, I stop multitasking! I also don’t text as much since I can hear my phone keys being obnoxiously loud in the quiet library.

Don’t let these last few months get to you! Try your best and we’ll all pull through just fine. =]
