Its beginning to look a lot like finals.

It is crazy to think that finals are this week and that the semester is almost over. It literally flew by. As for finals I have a few tips I wanted to share with y'all to make things a little less stressful!

1. Remember to take breaks!
    -One of the best ways to study is to study for about an hour and then take a 10 minute break.
2. Listen to music! (Unless you find that super distracting)
    -I find that listening to music can make studying so much more enjoyable.
3. Have a snack ready!
    -Before you sit down to crack the books have a snack and drink in hand.
4. Find what study technique works for you! Some of my favorites are:
    -Notecards (or Quizlet)
    -Study Guides
    -Study Groups
5. Finally, don't stress!
    -I know that finals are stressful and it is hard not to get overwhelmed, but it is important to keep your
     head up and a smile on your face.

I hope these 5 quick tips helped you. I want to leave y'all with a verse from Philippians 4:6 which is one that always come to mind before a big test or exam.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
