Spirit Week Is Here

Spirit Week is here. Today was nerd day and an alarming amount of students exhibited a grotesque emotion they call “pride”, school pride to be exact.

Never before have we, that is to say, in three (or is it two?) years, seen this many students get so excited to wear suspenders, booty shorts, and those funny little rainbow caps with the propellor on top.

Don’t even attempt to imagine what rally day will be like this year. Oh did you just spew? Man, I told you not to try.

It’s pretty tough deciding which is funnier, the old veteran teachers preaching good old fashioned “high on life!” fun this friday, or the virgin teachers gasps upon discovering that students, gasp!, drink on rally day.

On another note, sorry for the lack of posts recently, junior year is kind of kicking my butt to the point where I procrastinate everything.

Also, don’t forget to visit the rad football game this Friday.

Right now I’m procrastinating sleeping. No, wait, listen, it has a legitimate reasoning behind it! See, the sooner I sleep, the sooner I wake up, and thus the sooner I have to turn in that AP Lit essay I spent probably around 20 minutes on.

But never fear, we’ll be back to discuss who wore the least amount of clothing this friday, see told you we were working on becoming a gossip rag.

It’s a Hard Knock Life

These days, life is pretty darn average for us BHSers. To the best of our knowledge, nothing exceptional has happened in these few short weeks. There was an assembly to watch the Obama speech. Afterwards, Mr. Slemp told us how awesome we really are and that he means it. He gave off vibes of well wishing so we could tell how he felt, despite the mic problems.

Yesterday was the first late start day. This year, every monday is a late start day (as shown in the schedule). This is a heads up to everyone… don’t be late on a late start day! We know that it’s nice to sleep in, but we also realize that this throws people’s transportation schedules out of whack. Unfortunate as it may be, teachers don’t sympathize with tardiness, especially on Mondays.

Berkeley High seems to be settling into a rythm already. This year’s seems distinctly different from the rest. Is it just us or does BHS seem more college seminar like? Teachers don’t seem to know any students’ names and students are working hard to understand lessons that they have no time to ask questions about. This isn’t necessarily a problem because the school is definitely more scholarly this year. But we do miss the good ole days a bit.

On a brighter note Samantha just got her new permanent lip color she’s been talking about. Looks really good. A shout out goes to her permanent makeup artist who handled her very well. She’s gonna stay busy with work now that we’re all thinking about getting permanent makeup done.

She told us how that procedure cost $300 but it was totally worth it. What’s even more impressive is that she earned that money all by her self. After reading the Inboxdollars review on The Simple Wealth finance blog she got to it and earned a couple hundred dollars after about a month of work. Not bad for a full time high school student, right?

On a final note, the BBQ club had it’s first cookout last Friday. For those of you who don’t know, this is a club made of senior guys devoted to making veggie/burgers for the student body. Alongside the BBQ club is the baking club, for their female counterparts. While we don’t condone the gender exclusive clubs, they both are pretty cool and should be checked out. Make sure to get in line early though or you might not get a bite. We have exhausted topics for the moment; so in the words of Porky the Pig, “”Th- Th-Th-Th-Th-… That’s all, folks.”

Roofing Contractors Licence Exam Prep Tips

Try not to abandon it until the latest possible time. While a few understudies do appear to flourish with a minute ago packing, it’s generally acknowledged that (for the vast majority of us) this isn’t the most ideal approach to approach an exam. To enable deal with to your time the board, set up a timetable for your examination. Record what number of exams you have and the days on which you need to sit them. At that point sort out your investigation likewise. You might need to give a few exams more examination time than others, so discover an equalization that you feel good with.

Compose your investigation space

Ensure you have enough space to spread your course books and notes out. Do you have enough light? Is your seat agreeable? Are your PC diversions outside of anyone’s ability to see?

Attempt and dispose everything being equal, and ensure you feel as great and ready to center as would be prudent. For a few people, including my good friend who runs a well known limo service, this may mean relatively total quiet, for other people, ambient sounds makes a difference. A few of us require everything totally clean and sorted out with the end goal to focus, while others flourish in a more jumbled condition. Consider what works for you, and set aside the opportunity to hit the nail on the head.

Utilize stream outlines and charts

Visual guides can be extremely useful when reexamining. Toward the beginning of a subject, provoke yourself to record all that you definitely think about a point – and after that feature where the holes lie. Closer to the exam, gather your modification notes into one-page outlines. Getting your thoughts down in this short organization would then be able to push you to rapidly review all that you have to know amid the exam.

Practice on old exams

A standout amongst the best approaches to plan for exams is to work on taking past forms. This encourages you become acclimated to the organization of the inquiries, and – on the off chance that you time yourself – can likewise be great practice for ensuring you invest the appropriate measure of energy in each area.

Disclose your responses to other people

Guardians and younger siblings and sisters don’t need to disturb around exam time. Utilize them further bolstering your advantage. Disclose a response to an inquiry to them. That will assist you with getting it clear in your mind, and furthermore to feature any territories where you require more work.

Arrange think about gatherings with companions

Get together with companions for an examination session. You may have questions that they have the responses to and the other way around. For whatever length of time that you ensure you remain concentrated on the subject for a concurred measure of time, this can be a standout amongst the best approaches to move yourself.

Take standard breaks

While you may believe it’s best to ponder for however many hours as could be expected under the circumstances, this can really be counterproductive. This was brought to my attention by a recent graduate of the roofing exam prep course, Fenando. In the event that you were preparing for a long distance race, you wouldn’t attempt and run 24 hours per day. In like manner, considers have demonstrated that for long haul maintenance of information, taking normal breaks truly makes a difference.

Everybody’s extraordinary, so build up an investigation schedule that works for you. In the event that you think about better toward the beginning of the day, begin ahead of schedule before taking a break at noon. Or on the other hand, in case you’re more profitable at evening, enjoy a bigger reprieve prior on so you’re prepared to settle down come evening.

Do whatever it takes not to feel remorseful about being out getting a charge out of the daylight rather than slouched over your course readings. Keep in mind Vitamin D is critical for a solid cerebrum.

Bite on mind nourishment

You may feel like you merit a treat, or that you don’t have sufficient energy to cook, yet what you eat can truly affect vitality levels and center, so avoid lousy nourishment. Keep your body and cerebrum all around fuelled by picking nutritious sustenances that have been demonstrated to help focus and memory, for example, angle, nuts, seeds, yogurt and blueberries. The equivalent applies on exam day – eat a decent feast before the test, in view of nourishments that will give a moderate arrival of vitality all through. Sugar may appear to be engaging, however your vitality levels will crash a hour later.

Plan your exam day

Ensure you prepare everything admirably ahead of time of the exam – don’t abandon it to the day preceding to abruptly acknowledge you don’t have a clue about the way, or what you should bring. Check every one of the guidelines and necessities, and plan your course and adventure time. On the off chance that conceivable, complete a trial of the excursion. If not, record clear headings.

Work out to what extent it will take to arrive – at that point add on some additional time. You truly would prefer not to arrive having needed to run midway or feeling fatigued from losing your direction. You could likewise make arrangements to head out to the exam with companions or cohorts, as long as you most likely are aware they’re probably going to be dependable.

For our San Diego campus, there will be an exam prep in our teachers office. The instructor Mike, owner of Edison Home Improvement, will be holding the exam prep here.

Drink a lot of water

As a last tip, recall that being very much hydrated is fundamental for your cerebrum to work getting it done. Ensure you continue drinking a lot of water all through your amendment, and furthermore on the exam day.

Choosing the Right Eyelash Extensions Supplies

When looking for the perfect set of eyelash extensions, all of the options can make your head spin. But never fear! Today we have an expert, Anna Show, about some of the types of lash extension supplies and help you decide which one’s best for you.

Mink Eyelashes

The softest and most expensive, Mink eyelashes are 100% natural eyelashes that come from minks. Lightweight and impossibly fabulous, these lashes are perfect if you want eyelashes that look as normal as possible; however, you’ll have to be extremely careful you’re getting them from an ethical source. Fur farms are prevalent and are not kind to Minks. There are, however, synthetic options that are less expensive, cruelty free, and require less maintenance than the real deal.

Silk Eyelashes

While thicker than Mink, silk eyelashes are just realistic enough to fool people, but dark and dramatic enough to make you look glamorous. They’re thick at the bottom and thin at the top to look natural and beautiful. And the best part? They’re low maintenance and cheaper than Mink. That’s the best of both worlds, right?

Synthetic Eyelashes

Made completely artificially, synthetic lashes are the cheapest, and easiest to maintain. They don’t look 100% natural, but are definitely eye-catching. They’re great for going out and turning heads. They are thicker than the other lashes and consequently won’t be good for you if you have thin, weak lashes. The fake look also might not be appealing to you, but if you want to try using fake lashes and don’t want to put down a lot of money, synthetics are your best bet.

With all the different types of eyelashes, there’s definitely one out there for you. Whether you’re thinking about getting your first pair or you’ve been wearing them for years, eyelash extensions are a great way to make yourself look fabulous.

Traveling to Puerto Rico Safety Tips

As far as security is concerned, the island of Puerto Rico is very safe to travel to. But in any case you want to be extra careful when ever traveling abroad. Today, with the help of Puerto Rico tour and excursion company, Kayaking Puerto Rico, we put together a few safety tips when traveling to Puerto Rico. 

Safety precautions

Do not go around with valuables items on display or large sums of money in your pocket. Avoid walking alone during the evening and at night, especially in isolated places.

The possession and sale of drugs are punished by very severe penalties that can go up to 25 years in prison. Report your presence to the embassy or consular authorities in San Juan upon arrival. Contact them even if you have a problem with the local authorities.

You might wonder: is Puerto Rico safe to travel to? Would you be better off traveling to another place? The good news is that you can go and still enjoy the place if you act according to common sense.

How to move around in Puerto Rico

Once you arrive in Puerto Rico, it is time to decide how to get around. What’s the best means of transport to use to move around? Taking a rental car will cost you an expense of about $ 50 a day, including an insurance policy.

In the smaller islands, the advice is to opt for golf karts or mopeds, not only to spend less but also to have more fun. In almost all situations, you will find well-preserved roads. In case you want to use the ferries, it is good to know that tickets cannot be booked in advance, which means that you will buy them directly at the ticket office at the time of departure. Beware of taxis without local authorization.
