Sitting through classes can feel really tedious sometimes. I find it frustrating when my teacher spends half the class going over concepts we’ve already explored in detail just a week ago, and I’ve taken plenty of notes and reviewed them multiple times already. How do I keep myself occupied during these moments?
How do you all cope with school? I’m a freshman right now, and I really dislike it. It feels like an overwhelming amount of work, and for what? Just to get into college? Just to land a good job? When is it going to end? What’s the point of it all? I struggle to find […]
Rant About My APUSH Teacher I know this might seem a bit trivial, but I’m really frustrated about something involving my APUSH teacher. Generally, she’s a great person, and I don’t have issues with her, but recently I’ve been feeling like there’s some favoritism going on. There’s this one student in our class whose handwriting […]
Honestly, how do I go about finding a boyfriend? I know I’m not unattractive—guys have even told me I’m pretty—but sometimes it feels like I’m not their type when it comes to dating. I usually find that after a few weeks of chatting, they lose interest when they see I’m not the kind of girl […]
I totally get that feeling! It can be really frustrating when you’re going over material you already know. Here are a few productive ways to pass the time:
Revisiting Notes: Use that time to refine your notes or create summaries. You can highlight key points or even make flashcards for revision later.
Plan Your Study Schedule: Use the time to think about what you need to study for upcoming tests or assignments. Create a quick to-do list.
Read Ahead: If you have textbooks or resources for upcoming lessons, you could sneak in some reading to get a head start.
Doodle or Sketch: Sometimes, drawing can help you think creatively. You could even doodle concepts related to the subject to reinforce your knowledge.
Practice Mindfulness: Use the time to practice mindfulness or focus on your breathing. It can be a calming break amid the monotony.
Online Quiz Apps: If it’s allowed, consider using quiz apps on your phone to test yourself on the material covered or subjects of interest.
Engage Mentally: Try to think of real-life applications of the concepts being discussed. It could make it more interesting and relevant.
Just find what works best for you! And remember, it’s okay to zone out a bit as long as you’re not disruptive. Good luck!
