High school student not just study and take classes. They also have to join school activities, socialize and do their homework. Apparently, they always have a lot of work in school and at home.
It is essential for high school students to be organized. If you are a high school student, it may seem like you are always running out of time and all you do is study and never get enough time with your friends and family.
Listed here seven tips for you to follow to make life of high school students easier and add extra time for you to be with your friends and family:
1- Set the target everyday - Before you go to bed, list down all the matters you want to accomplish on the next day. A 'to do" list will help you to know what you are going to do and avoid doing unimportant tasks, of which will get everything done more efficiently and faster.
2- Prioritize your list of target - Once the "to do" list completed, try to prioritize the goals you want to achieve. Set your most important goal in life on top of your priority and your least important goals to down below on the list.
Be realistic on your list. It is better to list on what you need to achieve and not on what you want to achieve. If you have a long-term priority, it is probably best that you put it on the bottom of your list; you can always work on that tomorrow.
3- Utilize your spare time - As a high school student, sometimes you may not notice you have lots of spare time. Try to add up the minutes of the school bus ride to school and the school bus ride back home.
Use these times to create strategy of how to finish your homework effectively. By doing this, you will get an idea on what you need to do on your homework when you get home. This allows you to finish your homework faster and have extra time for other things.
4- Finding the right time - Sometime, students have specific time to study more efficiently. For instance, you can solve your math problems well on the afternoons; then do not wait until nighttime to do it. Mood is important here since mood can shifts immediately.
5- Taking notes - An effective way to study is to write down important notes. It is proven much better than just plain reading. Writing down notes has an effect on your mind. You can understand the topic more effectively and memorize it more effectively than by just reading.
Review your notes as your teacher might give a pop quiz on the next day. Reviewing your notes will help you be more prepared for the pop quizzes that your teacher may suddenly give.
6- Get adequate sleep - It is unhealthy trying to stress yourself out studying when you are supposed to be sleeping. It can bring ineffective results and unwelcome health problems.
If you need to sleep you have to sleep, do not force yourself to study if you cannot effectively study. If you try to study in this situation, you will most likely waste your time.
7- Keep your goals realistic - Trying to accomplish unrealistic goals can often result in failure and frustration. Setting realistic goals that is difficult and achieving it can give you self-worth and be proud on your achievements.
Just remember, everything you need to accomplish in one day is possible if you are organized and plan everything you do in a day.

Why am I obsessed with school?
By: Michelle | 25-07-2008
Why am I obsessed with school? I always do something, whether it's drawing or writing, and it's always about school. I even want to build my own school! A lot of the time, I draw up my "dream school" and I add in all the details like the perfect schedule, the way the outside looks, the teachers... this hasn't happened once... it's been happening a lot, ever since I moved to a new school last year and couldn't stand it. I even write up study tips and homework tips just for myself. It's soooooooo weird. I mean, I like school, but this obsession is a little out of control.
Sometimes I even draw what my locker would look like. I include the textbooks, pencils, a calendar, etc. I never told anyone about this, because they would just assume I like school. Well, DUH I know that... I just can't figure out why I'm so obsessed with this "perfect school" fantasy. Can anyone help me?
