How to live a STRESS-FREE college life:

READ MORE. LEARN MORE. Note: This applies to guys as well.

Find a place where you can study. Away from your Laptop, Bed and T.V.

Memory boosting food: apple juice, nuts, peanut butter sandwich.

Own a planner. Note: Guys should get one too. Owning a planner doesn’t mean you’re gay. No offense.

For Girls: Do not over-pack for school! All you need is a notebook, a pen and a couple of books.

For Guys: Okay, so we all know you’re hardcore but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to study for an exam tomorrow.

Stop being a kiss-ass to your professors because everyone will hate you for that.

Read, understand and follow you student handbook. Proper uniform and id is and will always be important.

Do not forget to bring extra cash for hand-out fees and such.

Penge.com is never cool!

*Just be yourself and have fun!

College Student do’s and don’ts 101

Do a background check on your professor. E.g. if he/she is the kind of professor who values attendance and such.  Do your research! It might help you someday.

STAY OUT OF GOSSIPS! Been there, stayed there for a while and believe me, cheap thrills of judgment is not worth it! You might end up losing precious people in your life.

When in class, PLEASE... I’m begging you! Avoid checking your phone every 10 seconds. You’ll never get back what you missed during class discussion.

Build a good study habit by always doing your assignments earlier. CRAMMING and PROCASTINATING is not healthy when you’re in college because there will be a lot of things going on.

Bring your own bottle of water. (So, yeah, although I really didn’t care about this that much. Seriously, 1 bottle of water will cost you about 20 pesos!) That’s 100 pesos for 5 days and 400 pesos saved money for a month!

Don’t be afraid to ask people around you. There are a lot of friendly students in STI and you might need their help more than you think.

ALWAYS! I repeat! ALWAYS bring your I.D.

Try to explore the easiest and cheapest route to your campus. The fare nowadays is not friendly at all. Even for students. ;)

Always have a spare pen and paper. Have a spare with everything you need every day in school, and that is, PEN and PAPER!  POP QUIZ!

Choose your schedule wisely, make sure you will be able to get all the subjects you need for that semester. But in STI, it’s automatically set for you, so you’re lucky. ;)

Do not be too addicted for the following:
Drugs – everything illegal was never cool.
Alcohol- You’ll have plenty of time to fool around after college.
Cigarettes- Decreases your life span.’nuff said.

Always greet the people around you with confidence and always smile! Good luck!

*P.S. Never add your professors on Face book. Not until you graduate.
