How to Finish Your Homework Fast // Tips and Life Hacks

Hey everyone! As you guys know with school comes homework. It is pretty much a fact of life. I mean it is a horrible fact of life but still a fact of life. Most people want to get there homework done fast so that they can enjoy the rest of there time. In this post I am going to give you some tips and hacks on how to get your homework done fast.

Take a break to do something you enjoy

Every once in awhile you kind of have to take a break. Once you have been doing plain and boring work for an hour your mind just kind of stops working. Raise your hand if you can relate. And so taking a break is the perfect way to recharge that amazing brain of yours. I recommend doing something like:

-Reading

-Watching tv

-Taking a walk

Really anything that you enjoy.

Eat a healthy snack

After like a bazzillion hours at school you need a snack of some kind. I recommend:

-And orange

-Some chips

-Frozen grapes

-Raisins

Aka anything that is semi healthy that will revive you. When you are hungry you can't think so once you are full it will be easier to anwser all of those hard math problems on your homework.

Drink some water

Same principal as the tip above. It just helps you think. Getting dehydrated is exceptionally bad but drinking water (a lot of it) really clears your mind.

Have a comfortable place where you do your homework

If there is a desk or something in your house then that is the perfect place to do your homework. But if you are one of the people who don't have a desk (aka me) then a counter or table also works perfectly. Just make sure to pick out a place where you will do your homework and stick to it.

Color coordinate everything

I swear it does help.  This makes everything more visually appealing and just easier to read as a whole.

Write all of your homework down in a agenda/planner

This really really helps. If you don't write down your homework you will either forget what you are suposed to do or do it wrong. I haven't really done it in years before but this year I have been using my agenda so much. I mean with 5 classes a day it is hard to remember everything. For me my school gave me an agenda but if that is not the case for you I recommend you buy one. There are a lot of places online where you can buy adorable planners.

Take everything you need home

If you have math homework then take all of your science stuff home. Your science binder and your science journal. So when you forget how to do something you can just look at your stuff. I do relize that our delicate student backs are amazing and can't carry that much stuff but still!

During class pay attention and take notes

This is pretty much just a rule for school but it also helps with your homework. Most of the time teachers assign homework that is based on what they were talking about in class. This means that you must pay attention and also take notes so that you remember everything. If you don't listen in class you will have pretty much no idea how to do your homework.

Do everything that you can at school

No I am not saying that you should do it during class (refer to point above for explanation) but sometime in school. Maybe when you have a study hall class. I do and I always take the time to do homework and go to the library. Or just in class when you have extra time. When you are early in class, if you are done with test, between classes. Pretty much just MANAGE YOUR TIME WISELY.

Give yourself rewards

One thing I like to do is get some sort of snack that I like. Let's say chips. And then after every problem I complete or after every couple of sentences I write I get a chip. This is a really good method to use to get your homework done fast and easily. Or instead of something like that you can do once you finish a sheet you get to watch 5 minutes of TV. 

Hey! I really hoped you liked this post. It seriously took me like 2 weeks to write. I have no idea why though. 

Do you like homework? Do you get homework? How much homework do you get? How do you usually do your homework? What are some of your tips for doing homework? 

26 Reasons Why All Teens/Tweens Need a Phone

Now you guys might not know but I actually don't have a phone. I am in middle school though. I have wanted a phone for a long time. I'm pretty sure I was promised one at the beginning of the summer. I still don't have one. Now this post is not suposed to be me complaining or anything I just thought it would be cool and funny (also it might convince my parents to get me a phone, who knows). Also if you want a phone but your parents won't get you one feel free to use any of these excuses that might apply to you.

1. We are in middle/high school now. That is a very very big deal.

2. Some people walk home from school (hint hint me) and so we need to tell our parents where we are and how long we are going to be.

3. So that you can tell your parents where you am.
4. To ask parents if you can stay at school for a certain amount of time. If said teen did not have a phone and they needed to stay after school the parent would get worried and everything would be exceptionally complicated.
5. So that said teen can ask parents if they can go somewhere.
6. To ask parents where parents are if said teen and parent get separated. It is hard to try to find someone in a crowd.

7. To call parents and ask them a question.
8. To talk to friends so that said teen doesn't have to use said parents phone.
9. Almost all tweens/teens have phones.
10. To research stuff for school.

11. If said teen gets lost said teen can just look up where said teen is on a phone. No more lost teen.
12. To keep track of homework. No one wants to turn in a report late.
13. So that when said teen forgets her camera said teen doesn't have to use her parents phone.

14.  It will not get lost or broken. For parents who are scared your kid is going to break the phone. THINK AGAIN! Phones are precious things that people take care of.
15. It doesn't actually cost that much. If a parent already has a plan is doesn't cost that much to add another one.

16. It makes kids feel more mature which them makes them act more mature. Logic people logic.
17. So that when said teen gets kidnapped by evil masterminds said teen can secretly call the police and not die. Go not dying!
18. Or when said teen is lost said teen can call someone.
19. Or maybe if said teen suddenly burst into flames they can call someone to help.

20. There aren't any more pay phones believe it or not. Teens need a personal phone.

21. So that when it is raining said teen can get parent to pick said teen up from school.

22. When the said teen gets bored and said parent wants teen to shut up said parent can just let said teen play on said phone and everyone will be happy.
23. It is a good thing to remind people since there is calender's and stuff. This will keep kids more organized.

24. It makes people feel connected.
25. It makes teens feel like outsiders since almost everyone else has a phone.
26. It makes everyone feel safer and less scared.

So did you guys like that? If you couldn't guess I kind of really want a phone. I think once people get my age (aka tween to teen age) and there families actually have enough money to buy a phone that they should get one. People have seriously asked for my phone number at school and I have had to tell them that I don't have a phone.  It is awkward OK. Or when teachers are "you can use your phone to research this" and then everyone pulls out there phones but I don't have one. Again awkward and annoying. 

Do you have a phone? Do you like it? How do you recommend I convince my parents to get me a phone? If I do end up getting a phone which type should I get? Do you think I should have a phone?
