|||Surviving Senior Year|||

So, this is my last year of High School and is it stressful. 
like....I can't even. rofl 

But I would like to share some tips that I think will make Senior Year much less stressful and much more smooth! 

It will probably be a small sporadic series so watch out for them!

1. Get a head start on college apps. 
College applications can be a killer if you don't give them their proper attention. So during the summer of Junior Year go ahead & make an account with the Colleges or Universities you would like to attend & if you want to go ahead and start filling it out, that's great too! If you have no idea where you want to go, take time to research, look at some schools in your area and maybe a couple out of your area as well(:

2. Get Connected.
Spend some time getting to know your Counselor and the person at your school who handles information about colleges and universities and scholarships. Creating a good relationship with them is important, in my opinion, because they know that you're serious about your education and being successful and plus the more they know about you, the more they can help!(:

3. Be Yourself.
Its scary. I get it. But- I have a strong feeling that colleges and universities want to see you, the person who is eagerly wanting to attend there school; not someone who is trying to write what they think the school wants to hear. So my advice, just be yourself and write when your in a good place-have fun with your applications and show the real you.(:

I've just noticed that there's smiley f face at the end of my sentences haha- just trying to give hope and positivity!

4. Get an agenda & stick with it.
Agendas are sooooo important during this year. I cannot stress enough, like it could save your educational lives. Writing down due dates and then giving yourself a time frame and also seeing that time frame is super helpful ( at least for me). I can see if my goals are set too close or if I've planned something after school but I also have something to do that day. With everything that is going on this year I just cant see myself doing it without my planner...all of my scholarship dates, projects, big tests...sigh it s just the #realmvp. 

5. Have Funnnn!
I almost forgot this to be honest, which is kinda what happens throughout the year haha. But just remember Senior Year is your last year so make it extra fun, take all those fun pictures, engage in a new club or sport, and have fun with your class. *whoop whoop class of 2015


So I hope that these help with organizing your senior year or even getting ready for it (or just help organize your year in general)!
See ya in the next post (;

p.s sorry for the lack as posting, all the tests and homework along with exams and after school activities really add up quick and swamp me so I try to post when I can!
