Back to School Routines

Second week of school and looks like everyone is back to study mode. However, some are still enjoying the last bit of freedom before midterms, finals, and papers are handed out and processed. Others have hit the books and began to be deeply embedded into their ‘reading books’ getting them that A+ that they want to achieve. Although studying is key to achieving that A+ there are various ways to be able to study and enjoy life during the school year.

Exercise
Exercising is one activity that can be incorporated to your school routines. Sure there are days of being lazy and not wanting to do anything, however exercising helps create blood to flow throughout the body, waking up the brain cells that are probably bored out of their wits from reading “useless” information that’s not unrelated to your degree. So go walk around campus, or even stretch on the spot for blood circulation to wake up.

Food
Of course when it comes to studying constantly there can be a tendency to forget to eat three meals a day. Stop studying and go out and grab a bite to eat make sure to eat something whether it be a small snack or a huge meal from Degree (located in University of Manitoba, third floor of University centre). Eating will not only refresh your stomach but it’ll bring the nutrients from the food to the brain in some way or another.

Relaxing
Lastly is relax. Give yourself some time to relax retaining the information that was taken in from a lecture or intensely studying. Call up some friends, meet a friend on campus, or sleep to relax and give the mind to relax and fully gain and understand the information that was taken in.
