Time Management Strategies

One of the articles I read was 11 Ways Unsuccessful People Mismanage Their Time by Aine Cain.  The biggest advice that I took from the website was that I need to utilize my weekends. I typically am lazy on the weekends and do not do much because I think of it as a rest time, but if I just do a few things on the weekends it will lessen my workload over the next week. The other article I read was 3 Steps to Recapture Time by Joynicole Martinez. The best advice from this article was how to say no. I have always had issues with telling my friends no when they want to do something so I definitely needed to hear this. I think the biggest challenge for me this semester is going to be finding a balance for all of my classes because I am taking Biology, Spanish 5, and Abnormal Psychology along with this class and a couple others. My best time management strategy is that I write EVERYTHING down in my planner. Each thing is color coordinated too so I know exactly what I need to do for each class.

I have always been fascinated by the idea that a normal person can suddenly turn into a violent killer. I have studied many famous killers like Ted Bundy for example. For my 9th birthday I got this really big book filled with all the most popular serial killers to date. Needless to say I read that thing everyday.  It is safe to say that my favori

Week 3 Story: The Town of Ishmiel

Image
There once was a man named Ezekiel who was cursed with a blind eye. People would stare and point whenever they saw him because his eye was as white as the snow that spread across the tundra. His mother told him not to worry and that some lady would come along and love him for who he was. However, Ezekiel was impatient and longed to find this lovely lady instead of waiting for her to come to him. He traveled for days at a time, looking for the one woman who would love him the way he is; but he had no success.  Just when Ezekiel began to give up all hope of finding his love, an angel came down from the heavens and proclaimed "Ezekiel you have been blessed, for the Lord has heard your cries for a lovely lady of your own and has decided to grant you with your wish". Ezekiel fell to his knees and wept tears of joy. His days of searching were behind him. The angel then said "go to the town of Ishmiel and find the most beautiful suitor, for she is waiting for you".  Ezekie
