A reminder that Irish survived as a ‘national’ language for more than two millennia only to be wiped out by two centuries of brutal dedication.

Many places won't allow coloured hair and you may have to redye or refuse to work at some places

If you have a school class about making resumes USE BETTER TEMPLATES!!! Places will call back wayyy more if the resume looks good

Even if you dont shop at the place you're applying talk about it like its the BEST products and say you use them (at least have a basic knowledge)

If you are waiting for a call back after an interview, keep looking for more jobs. Even if it went well. Its better to have more options

Dress business casual. Even if its just for a job at Walmart. Dress like you care.

Go online and find a resume template. If you accidentally find yourself at one that wants you to pay, copy and paste things into a different doc, one that is actually free. I suggest www.ResumeHelp.com for a free and easy to use builder

Have a mint before the internet. And wear deodorant. For the love of god wear deodorant.

Compliment, smile, and be as friendly as you can. ACT FRIENDLY THIS IS NOT A DRILL

I know nobody ever mentions it in “What’s in my Kånken” posts, but you CAN fit a 15" MacBook in a Kånken Classic!

It’s a pretty tight fit, but it’s possible. It’s fits pretty snugly out of a case, and is sort of tight in a laptop sleeve, but if you need it to, it will fit!

If you’re putting it in without a case, be extra sure to rinse your bag with warm water before using it, like Fjällräven suggests. Otherwise you’re highly likely to end up dying the corners of your laptop!

hey guys!! 

so i love math as much as the next guy, but i think we can all agree that it is one of the hardest subjects to study for. 

so, without further ado, here are some tips on how to study math!

1. - ̗̀invest in a whiteboard! ̖́- the most helpful tool i used in AP calc was my giant whiteboard. this way you can go through practice problems quickly (and let’s be real- white boards are more fun than paper).

2. - ̗̀watch youtube videos on the topic you’re studying! ̖́- never underestimate the power of a good khan academy video. these will not only give you an explanation of the topic other than what your teacher gave you, they will also give you more practice problems to work on.

3. - ̗̀don’t just learn how to do each topic, learn the theorem! ̖́- if you learn WHY something is rather than HOW something is, it’ll make more sense to you and make working out the problem a little more clear. there are youtube videos explaining this!!

4. - ̗̀create a unit “cheat sheet”! ̖́- i did this throughout high school and it saved my life. at the end of each unit, or as you go along, create a cheat sheet by listing each topic within the unit, the formulas needed for the topics, how to do each problem, the theorem, etc.

5. - ̗̀review old quizzes! ̖́- the mistakes you make on your quizzes you are likely to make on the test. review the quizzes, rework the problems, and fix your mistakes! quizzes also give a good preview of what’ll be on the test.

6. - ̗̀find your notes from old classes! ̖́- are you in calculus, but you’re having trouble remembering the unit circle from trigonometry? go to your old notes. trust me.

7. - ̗̀take your time when practicing problems! ̖́- if you go quickly, you’re more likely to make silly mistakes. take your time, even if you don’t have a lot of it, so you can focus on how to do each problem rather than the small mistakes you make.

8. - ̗̀make a quizlet for your formulas! ̖́- studying for math the night before the test would be a lot easier if you already had the formulas memorized, right? make the quizlet in advance and flip through it while you’re in the car, in line, etc.

9. - ̗̀quality over quanitity! ̖́- while doing practice problems, don’t just do a bunch of basic questions. that’s a huge waste of time. do a couple at each difficulty, so you aren’t wasting your time on doing a bunch of questions you know you can do.

10. - ̗̀make a study plan! ̖́- using the cheat sheet i mentioned in number 4 or just a list of topics on the exam you are studying for, create a study plan that covers a couple of topics each day. this way you can thoroughly delve in to each one without overworking yourself the night before the test.

i hope these help! if you have anything you like to do but that i didn’t include, please reblog with them to help some students out! 

1. Take a day off: this may seem strange if you are already behind on your studies, but take a day off. On this day, first make a study plan and then relax for the remainder of the day. You can read, play video games, watch movies, binge tv shows, anything! Just make sure you go to bed extra early and tidy your bedroom and make sure everything is ready for tomorrow.

2. Wake up early the next morning. It can be around 5, 6 or 7. Or just whatever is early for you. Make yourself a drink (coffee, tea, hot chocolate, water, etc), open the windows (even for a few minutes), wash your face, light a candle and take out your study plan.

3. Transfer your tasks from your study plan for the day to your daily to-do tasks list. I advise you to get a notebook or actually by a planner. Write everything and include the time you’re going to do them too. However, be realistic or you just go back to being overwhelmed and exhausted.

4. Plan rewards and breaks. For every task or few tasks that you finish, plan a break with a small award. Make sure the breaks aren’t too long or too short. Your reward can be a nap, some sweets or snacks, socialising with family and friends, some reading or tv time (If you’re positively sure that you can return to your work in your planned time!)

5. Rememebr to breathe and trust in your plan. Just remember that your plan is fine and you will finish everything if you stick to your plan (the realistic plan that you can stick to is important here). If you get stressed, just breathe, do some yoga or meditation and remind yourself that it will all turn our well in the end.

Before classes:

1 - Have a good night of sleep.  - At least eight hours.

2 - Take some coffee before going to school.  - Always have a snack in your bag. (Don’t study hungry)

3 - Workout. - I know it’s going to be hard, since most of you have to wake up so early, but working out will help you to make the most out of your day. 

4 - Organize your bag the night before. 

5 - Go through what you’ll be learning on the day. - This way you will be prepared and you can take notes about your doubts on the subjects.

6 - Listen to a badass playlist on the way to school/college. - It will boast your motivation. 

7 - Drink a lot of water.  - That’s a tip to the whole day, actually. Always remember to take a bottle of water or tea to school/college. 

During class:

1 - Sit in the front. - You will understand more your teacher and be away from the noises that can take away your attention.

2 - Ask questions. (No matter how dumb you think they are.) - Do not end a class with doubts. If you can’t ask during the class, take a note of your question on a sticker/notebook to ask later.

3 - Record the lectures.

4 - Put stickers on notes you will need to go over. 

5 - Listen to your teacher. - Be friendly with them. - Write down their names and contacts (number, emails, social media).

6 - Taking notes on class!

- Don’t worry about it being pretty, just make it organized and understandable so you can go over and make real notes later.  - Always start with the subject title and date.  - Differentiate by color your teacher’s notes and yours. Put in red (or any other color you want, actually) the important things.

After class:

1 - Eat. - You need to replace energy!

2 - Review everything you learned on the day you learned it.

3 - Complete your homework on the day you get it.  - Or start it, if the task is too big.  - NEVER FALL BEHIND!

4 - Dress comfy.

5 - Have office hours in case you didn’t understand something.

6 - Watch documentaries on the topic you are currently studying.

7 - Study 30 minutes (50 minutes at the very most) and stop for 10 minutes.  - Leave your study place when it’s break time.

8 - Turn off your phone or let it out of sight. 

9 - Test yourself/talk out loud. - Do practice questions!

10 - Taking notes after class!

- if you drank coffee while revising, drink coffee before the exam. if you didn’t, don’t

- listen to one type of music (genre/artist) while revising a certain topic, listen to that music on your way to the exam

- wear the same colour nail polish/perfume when revising and when you’re in the exam

- keep your sleep schedule the same. try to get 8 hours while revising and also the night before the exam. don’t stay up cramming and exhaust yourself

- it’s better to do one hour every day in the week leading up to the exam than 7 hours in one day the day before
