It’s An Art Form

Posted January 21st, 2010 at 09:22 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

Have you ever looked at someone’s notes, accentuated by a rainbow of colors, and thought, “I wish I had those mad skills…How can they even tell what is what…it just looks like a neon lights show” ? Well, then you, my friend, have come to the right place. See, I specialize in neon light shows and if Food Science ever fails me, I may just pursue it as a career…although, I’m not too sure of how far it would take me. Anyways, there are a few key rules to the highlighting madness (or at least...

Seven Syllabi? Simple!

Posted January 15th, 2010 at 09:49 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

It's finally Friday! Actually, this friday rolled around alot faster than usual because we started back to school on a Wednesday. PLUS, Monday is M.L.K. Day, so I've got a long weekend ahead (Why we didn't just wait to start school until this upcoming week, I'll never know!).

Posted December 7th, 2009 at 08:36 AM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

It’s finals time, like it or not, and I’m here to give you a little advice. Now, mind you, I am already going a little stir crazy and I still have 10 days (and 5 finals) until I get to hit the road for HOME! I’m pretty pumped, but I am determined to stay focused these next few days and really give it my all (in the study department…I could give it my all in the Facebook, blogging, movie-watching department any week ).

The Latter Group

Posted December 3rd, 2009 at 01:01 PM by emily (Tips, Tricks & Experiences from a Flourishing College Girl)

“There are basically two types of people. People who accomplish things, and people who claim to have accomplished things. The first group is less crowded.”- Mark Twain

I am in the first group and the remaining 4 people in my "group" fall into the latter description. Hence, the reason why I am working on a massive project that is due today. Some people just can't handle responsibilty, so it lands into the laps of people who can handle responsibilty. However, those people probably...
