March 17, 2016

If you’re anything like me, you’re probably finding yourself in that mid-semester, unmotivated, I-don’t-want-to-do-anything slump.

February 23, 2016

Nothing beats a great homework playlist that really gets you in the zone. Personally, I get totally distracted if I listen to songs with lyrics (especially ones that I know) while studying.
