Revision Tips

I took my biology exam back in November, and I got my results back the other day and I did really well. I think it was down to my revision that I did, so I thought I would share it with you.

1. Make notes and post them around your house.
Put them in places you would usually see them, like on the front of a drawer or on the back of the bathroom door. That way you will always see them and it will stay in your head. Only put short things on there though, not long things.

2. Take regular breaks.
For about every hour of revision take a 10 minute break, if not you'll get tired and you wont learn a lot. Remember to rest a lot as well.

3. Have revision parties.
This way you can have fun and still revise. Just make sure you don't go off track and start talking about things that aren't relevant.

4. Get your parents/friends to test you.
Every now and then, get your parents/friends to test you on what you've learnt. What questions you get wrong, learn them again and get them right next time.

5. Make a sheet of important words and meanings.
In exams, it's the words that you use that mean a lot. The better the words that you use, the more marks you'll get so make sure you know those words.

My Favourite Nail Polishes

Twenty-Twelve

Hey everyone! Quick update, just a couple of things to tell you about.

• Firstly, I'm going to be doing a lot of book reviews this year. I am going to start the House of Night series this week or the next. Then I'm going to buy some more books with some gift cards I got for Christmas.
• I also want to do a Room Organisational blog, showing good ways to organise your room.
• 90210 is now on again, so I'll probably be writing about the characters and the plot in that.
• I want to do a couple of collection blogs, and some tags!

Overall this looks like a good year, happy new year everyone!

Stargazer, Hourglass & Afterlife (Evernight Series)

I've already done my review on Evernight, and I thoroughly enjoyed that book, but it left me with so many un-answered questions. The rest of the series answered these, which made the story so much better.

I can't say enough good things about this series. It is one of the series where when I finish it, I feel depressed that it's over because I've related to the story that much, and now there's nothing else to read. The characters as amazing in this series, I loved each one of them (well... the nice ones!)

I would tell you what happened in each book, but that would ruin the series. Bianca learns a lot about herself, and what she is, but the more she learns, the more she regrets. In Startgazer she meets a new vampire, Charity, who becomes very big in the series.

One of my favourite things about this series is the twists that Claudia Gray throws upon the books. They make me fall in love with the series so much more, not to mention the way she shapes each character so carefully they seem almost real inside my head.

I did a review on Vampire Academy a couple of months ago, I thought I'd never love a book series as much as that, but I was wrong, I prefer this series. It's close, they're both great, but the twists, suspense, action and love are just so great in these books. Don't hesitate buying.
