Tips for 8th Grade

Waddup Twiglets! I don't know about you, but I'm graduating

from 8th grade, and I couldn't have done it with out you little Twiglets!

Here are some tips I have for you if your eighth grade year is coming

up or if you'd like to go back in time and turn your 2.6 GPA into

a 3.95.

  

1) Take naps when you can. You may not feel tired to the point of saying "Hey I need a nap" but they're always nice. There's a nice hammock near The Corner which is a nice spot to get some shut eye.

2) Listen to music. It always helped me when I was working and studies show that music can help students focus and work more efficiently.

3) Stay as organized as you can. It comes easier to some than others but remembering what assignments and tests are coming up definitely help me prepare.

4)  Go outside between classes. Sitting in a class all day is hard for me which is why I like to take advantage of the breaks between classes as much as possible

5) Eat. As much as you can.

6) Don't sweat the small stuff. If you stress about the little things all throughout the year, you will end up feeling very overwhelmed when you shouldn't.

7) Spend time with friends. Being with friends is always nice and can help relieve stress I hope.

8) Have fun. The year can be challenging and stressful at times but remember that constant stress and worrying will make the year a much harder time for you.

 Thanks for a great year Twiglets!

My Intro Paragraph

As many of us know, life comes with its challenges. Throughout the many years that humans have roamed on this planet, there have always been great deals of suffering. Whether it be a very futuristic example found in the book Last Book in the Universe, or a very realistic example of struggle, such as World War II, found in Night by Elie Wiesel. Many people showed great deals of courage and strength when it would've been much easier to cave in and give up as many others did. As seen in Spaz's, Elijah's, and Elie's stories, overcoming challenge can lead to positive transformation in the world.

Innovation - Memes

Hey Twiglets! The topic of today's blog is what innovation

I think has transformed the world. This is a real good

one, so I'd read if I were you. Enjoy.

 As you probably guessed, my answer to this question would have to be the internet. Being able to communicate easily and quickly with people who are either in your community or on the other side of the world is pretty neat. It has allowed people to receive current news no matter where they are. It has also allowed for people to waste large amounts of time watching Real Housewives or staring at a social media feed full of memes. Either way, with the invention of the internet, the way we live our lives has transformed enormously. Without it, I wouldn't be able to connect with you, Twiglets!
