Hi, guys 🌊 I just wanted to share with you my new Building my empire notebook. At this point I quit pretending like I don't like pink, or girls. And just move on with my life. Its gonna be great.

So when the year started, I decided to do a few trackers ro go with my periods one. As you can see the bigger one on the left is the Study tracker, the first jar is a Tumblr tracker, where red is for studyblr, blue for main blog, and green for the booklr/bookstagram, so I’ll know how much do i post. And the last one is a Writing tracker where you get a circle per 1k of words.

On the right is my bff’s favorite page. It’s a list of lists. She laughes so hard each time i say “Wait, i havE A LIST FOR THAT!!” so my babies are finally nice and organized somewhere ~

So we came up with some back to school tips that we actually do and they work for us. We know that some of you have already started school but we still wanted to share it with you all.

Also: Some of the tips are recommended for before school starts but its never to late to change your routine :)

1. Get a planner/ bujo This is probably the most important tip. Getting a planner or a bullet journal (or any notebook actually) keeps your organized and on top of homework and classes. Always try to write down your homework as soon as you get it and always put when its due so you never miss a due date.

2. Put your timetable as your wallpaper   This is great if you can’t remember your schedule and you have to keep checking back in a book for it. It’s so easy to always have it when you unlock your phone until you memorize it.

3. Go through your stationery It’s best to do this before school starts so you can get an idea of stationery you need to buy. Get rid of old pens, highlighters so you never have to worry of running out of ink in the middle of class.

4. Develop a skin care regimen   Like the tip above, it’s usually best to do this a week or two before school starts so you get used to it. If you don’t have face products you should buy ones that suit your skin type so you can look your best on the first day.

5. Clear your work space Decide on a place you want to do your homework or study and organize it so it’s tidy and there’s enough room for you to work. It’s best when you have a window so you can get natural light to work.

6. Set goals You can do this each term, month or week (it’s up to you). Use these goals to work harder but goals that are realistic so you don’t become stressed out.

7. Study with a friend Choose a friend that isn’t easily distracted do you can study together. It’s fun when you have someone to learn with and it makes it less stressful. You can share notes and techniques so you both get good grades.  

8. Find out what isn’t working for you   In the past academic year you might’ve tried different things whether it was ways of studying or taking notes or different routines. Before the new year, take note of what wasn’t working for you last year and decide what you’ll do differently this year.  

8.1  Discover what works for you Try out new things in this academic year if you don’t have systems and routines that work for you. Try a new way of taking notes or revise new notes everyday after school. Try new things and at the end of the semester/year reassess and see how much progress you’ve made.  

9. Create a sleep cycle Waking up early for school after months of sleeping in is tough. But if you start waking up early around 2 weeks in advance it not only allows for slip ups but gets your body ready to wake up early for the school year.  

10. Create a system for the coming year After you’ve set your goals for the year and you’ve discovered what you need to do differently this year, come up with a system that helps you to implement those goals. Whether it’s using a grade tracker or getting a planner/bujo or creating a daily schedule, come up with a system that helps you to meet your goals.  

Recently we hit 1,000 followers and that's so crazy to us! Sooo in celebration of this milestone we decided to do blogrates!
