This week’s blog post is a back to school post! Personally, I am not excited to go back to school and I’m sure some of you feel the same so hopefully this post will give you some motivation! There are definitely pros of going back to school; you get to see all your friends! However, there are cons; having to wake up early! Here’s some tips to help you get through going back to school!
Getting ready over the summer
▪️ Read your notes over the summer - this is particularly important for subjects that you find a bit trickier! Just spend time reading over last year’s notes to refresh your memory! Keeping your brain in the habit of learning means you’ll have an extra advantage when you go back to school!
▪️ Buy your school supplies - This is probably the most obvious and important one! Make sure you have all the equipment you’ll need for lessons!
▪️ Buy your school uniform - Not all schools have a uniform, but for those students that do, it is a good idea to shop early in the summer holidays to ensure you can get your size before stocks get low!
Preparing the night before
▪️ Figure out how you’ll get to school - Make sure you arrange reliable transport, on top of the stress there may be in the morning, you don’t want to find out that the buses aren’t running or the car has no petrol two minutes before you’re about to leave! Here’s some ways you could get to school; walking, driving in the car, school bus or public transport!
▪️Choose what you’re going to wear - I have to wear a uniform, but if you don’t, choose your outfit the night before! If you’re indecisive when it comes to choosing what to wear (like me) choose an outfit you’re happy with to save time! To be extra organised, you may even want to lay out your school clothes ready for the morning!
▪️ Go to sleep early - You need to make sure you have had enough sleep so that you don’t feel tired in class and start getting distracted! If you've been staying up late throughout the summer, it’s recommended you start to get your sleep schedule on track up a week before you go back. That way, you'll have a much easier time adjusting to the new routine.
Getting through your first day
▪️ Wake up early - I recommend that you wake up early so that you’re not rushing in the morning. This will allow you to get ready calmly and you won’t find it as stressful.
▪️ Eat breakfast - I know a lot of people don’t eat breakfast but it is so important! Eat something nutritious that will give you energy! Also, if you're feeling groggy, coffee can help! Just make sure you don’t drink too much as an overdose of caffeine will leave you with anxiety and headaches.
▪️ Get to school early - 15 minutes is ideal as this will give you time to find out where your classes are, and give you time to catch up with friends. Just make sure you’re not late! Being late won’t give a good first impression!
That’s all for this weeks blog post! I hope you enjoyed! I already feel more prepared! Although going back to school isn’t always the most enjoyable thing, try and have fun! I will see you next week for another blog post! Love you all!
Byyeee!!!!
Very good advice Izzy
