I hope you do better soon. Studying history is easy if you use this technique:
1-Read the entire paragraph or two out load (depending how much info is in each paragraph)
2-Highlight the most important parts of the paragraph and write notes and examples beside the paragraph. Color-coding helps when highlighting.
3- Look over the paragraph quickly and take mental notes of things you should remember
4- Cover the paragraph with a paper (or close the book) and recite the paragraph. Aim to say exactly what's written in the book, paraphrasing is fine too.
This technique is very time consuming though.... Good luck with your tests!

I hate school

When I studied, the only way to make the less thrilling info stick was to write it out, several times until it stuck.

I did too, until I learned a way to study that worked for me. I didn't nail that until college.

Depends on what you like to study, I like politics and biology. Social media is nice, mainly because it involves humor and politics. You'll find something you like about school. I've found that some students are too boring: their life revolves around having fun and an education is their second priority. My Chemistry teacher once told me that if I continue my *A grades I'll be rich and I'll do whatever I want. Dreaming is nice ya know

Thick and thin, winning or losing, I always know they'll pull off a win. Even when they have no chance of coming back to actually win!

It's still transferring pictures. I'm on satellite Internet, due to my out in the middle of nowhere location, so I have a limited restricted bandwidth. 2 days running so far.

Oh, stop it! It's going to absolutely fly by. Enjoy the freedom of high school while you can. I'm on my 7th year straight of college! The first 3.5 I messed around d too much and college has taken me longer than it should. But, learn what you can bc I didn't in high school and it made my college courses much harder at first. You can do it! When older generations say these are the fastest times of your life, it truly is, and that's only coming from someone who's almost Only 25.

thanks for the advice Blake! your right i should just drop out.

Night everyone!

good night

Abdulla, good night.

Have to agree that Dasani is just nasty. It has an after taste! What water has after taste?

As for aspartame, my great uncle is a leading neurologist, and would put me over his knee like a child if he caught me taking that stuff in. "Poison! Killing people slowly" he declares it at every gathering

When I found Benny, I had a minor heart attack, and was the first time I was grateful for a migraine

Just heard a free go down!

Oh she's beautiful!

“Tree"

Poor trees. The ground gets saturated and it can't hold onto the roots. Hopefully your tree wasn't near any buildings???
