Apologies .... and Revision Help :D

I AM SORRY!! I haven't posted in a while and I am not making excuses. simply on the Fridays I have been busy. I have been busy with college work, I have been trying to revise as I have 9 exams to do this summer, and three of them are resists and two of them exams are the first full year of business so basically I am doing two years worth of business in this year, and I am not looking forward to it its just so stressful and not the most amazing thing in the whole entire world so I have trying to go over everything but I am just in that student phase of "cant be arsed, I will do it later".

College is stressful as I am sure every student will agree with me. There is just so much to do and its hard to juggle it all! There is study, revision, food, sleep, parties, friends, family, days out, relaxation. Sometimes I want to go to the highest mountain and scream! But don't fear if any of you need tips for revision here are is KatyNells Spectacular Study Tips;

1. Make sure you have a cup of you favourite beverage.
2. Make sure you have snacks, especially chocolate as it releases serotonin, the 'happy' neurone transmitter.
3. Have pens, notebooks, notecards and highlighters at the ready.
4. If you wish to feel relaxed massage your feet, or have a bubble bath.
5. Return to your desk and stretch all of your phalanges (fingers) make sure they are ready to write loads of words, lots of pointless words.
6. Clear your throat, as its always good to have clear air way passages.
7. Go on your laptop and open a tab to a page that has the topic you are studying, examples are; law, business, chemistry, biology, maths, english etc.
8. Get your notebook and write the title of the topic then underline, with a few cheeky bullet points underneath, and make very few notes after looking at the page.
9. Open another tab, Netflix maybe or that website where you stream the latest movies maybe, or get the boxset of your favourite tv show and stick it in the dvd player.
10. Grab your beverage, snacks and sit back and enjoy whatever you are watching.

So there you go, this technique I have been doing for a while now and I can safely say it has 0% success rate in getting that grade you dream for, BUT it does allow you swoon over you favourite characters, which c'mon lets be honest will take us further in life.

Hope you enjoyed this weeks post :) I will do one on revision and organisation of work and time but that will be when I actually know what the best technique is or how to actually organise everything as I am not a very organised person, yeah so hope you are having a fantastic Friday, and I will be putting up two more posts after this one to make up for the two I didn't post two weeks ago! I hope you amazing, beautiful, loving people have an fantabulous weekend!!

Love yours truly

The Kingsman has just made my list ...

On Saturday my dad took me and my sisters to the Odeon to watch 'Big Hero 6' however I didn't want to watch that so my dad let me see the Kingsman. So there I sat, on my own, in the cinema, eating my sweets, watching one of my new favourite films. It has the comedy, the action, and the attractive, handsome, beautiful, body sculpted lead male actor, also known as Taron Egerton, who also by the way made my list of 'future husbands' (maybe one day I will write about my list ;) ) Back to the film, I absolutely loved it! It was very comedic, I was trying not to be that one person in the cinema who belly laughs at one of the jokes and to be honest that was really hard to not do. The action, the fights, the adrenalin rushing scenes were amazing, they made me want to become a spy, do the ass-kicking karate kicks, the jumps out of the plane, have the awesome gadgets, but alas I cannot, which is heart breaking :'( But at least I will be re-live those moments whilst watching one of my new favourite films.

If you haven't already seen it, go and watch it now, right now, buy a ticket, go to the cinema and watch it. If its not out now buy the dvd, rent it, borrow it from a friend, even if you have to go to the measures of watching it illegally online, do it. Trust me you wont regret it!!

Untill next week, stay happy, keep smiling :)

Love yours truly
