4 Best Practices for Making Time in Your Schedule for a Job
4 Best Practices for Making Time in Your Schedule for a Job https://giphy.com 1. Organize your schedule https://giphy.com Crafting a multi-functional schedule that fits all the things you need to do in a given week takes some practice. After all, if everyone had the natural gift of time management, then it wouldnât be considered a skill. While you could use some trial and error to find a schedule that works for you, there is an easier way to work in time to study, sleep, go to class, eat, and go to work. The art of schedule-making is learning to make compromises. Unfortunately for you, those compromises will likely include omitting Wine Wednesdays from your weekly agenda, so you can you know study. Plus, you wonât be too hungover to go to work the next day; and by hungover, we all know you mean âunder the weather.â Additionally, you should prioritize your needs and desires on a monthly, weekly, or daily basis (depending on your preferences), so reroute your schedule around your personal, academic, and career needs. Most importantly, donât forget to finagle in some âme timeâ into your weekly, daily, or whateverly itinerary. Seriously, showing yourself some self-love can help you succeed in your classes, work, and social life. If youâre feeling a bit run down, how can you expect yourself to feel motivated enough to get out of bed for that 8 a.m.? Who are we kidding, itâs a struggle to get yourself out of bed for any early morning class, but you get the point. 2. You donât need to have everything all at the same time https://giphy.com So whatâs the âall? Well, thatâs dependent on what your long-term and immediate aspirations are. While your friends might give you some flak for not being able to go out on a Friday night, if you need to study or need to go to work the next morning, you need to put your priorities before a night out. Your friends will understand. If they donât, you might want to make some time to make new friends. After all, what friend doesnât want to see their friends make money and succeed in school or do decent in their courses (we all have those classes)? Regardless, you need to take a page, or several, from Oprah and recognize that you can have it all, just not at once. Everyoneâs weekly workload (and course load) differs day to day and week to week. Some weeks you might be able to get an A on a paper, finish all of your work assignments on time, and have time to have a movie marathon with friends. On other weeks, last minute work deadlines could come up, leaving you at work later than usual, which makes you rack in some late night hours. But itâs important that you donât reminisce on that one week where you could do everything because this week clearly isnât that particular week. This week you barely have enough time to work on your course project, but you realize that no grade is worth being sleep deprived. Whereas, on a different day the roles could be reversed. Yes, we all have goals but we canât have a perfect life or juggle a dozen responsibilities and still expect to be a partially functioning adult. Please, donât make the excuse that âSherry has it all;â Sherry probably donât have it all. Sherry is either on the verge of a debilitating emotional breakdown or she has one part of her âperfect life on lockdown from Monday through Thursday. On Friday through Sunday, you have the rest down pat, but Sherry doesnât have it all down pat. You will have it all, just not all in the same week or even the same month, and that is perfectly okay. 3. Take online classes giphy.com Online classes get a lot of criticism for not being ârealâ classes, whatever that means. However, online courses are indeed real classes. If they get you one step closer to wearing that cap and gown, then theyâre definitely legitimate credits. Donât worry, you donât have to take all of your classes online. Taking one or two courses online wonât necessarily help you magically develop free time. However, a few online classes will give you the freedom to watch virtual lectures, study, and complete assignments and test on your own time, wherever and whenever you want well any time before your deadlines. Having some flexibility in your schedule will save you from stress eating when you find out that you nearly forgot your roomieâs birthday tomorrow and you need to find them a gift ASAP. Thankfully, you just finished your Econ 101 quiz online, and you donât have to physically go to a lecture tomorrow because you decided to commit to a virtual class. While online courses allow you to work on your own time, online classes arenât for everyone. Thankfully, you can still find some comfort in online work. 4. Work remotely https://giphy.com While virtual positions might not get the same type of flak as online classes, thereâs still a stigma against working remotely. In reality, online jobs are more diverse than just some odd freelance work. Plus, there are some great websites, like WayUp, that make finding online jobs and gigs for online students virtually painless. WayUp is an innovative website that is teaming with virtual jobs in basically every industry. Plus, WayUp has an easy one-click-apply option on a lot of their job postings. Did I mention that this site is completely free to use? WayUp essentially does everything short of applying to jobs for you, though that would be an outstanding update to the website. Regardless, this company is constantly updating its website to ensure that college students and recent college grads get hired. Who knows, maybe WayUp will be the first company to create a virtual reality interview option? After all, phone interviews and video interviews lack face-to-face communication; throwing some VR into the mix will only make the virtual interview process more authentic. On the other hand, a VR interview would force you to put on actual pants during your home interview. On second thought, please donât start the virtual reality interview trend. We arenât ready for this technology. Though, you should be ready to take the lead and apply to some online jobs. Just like online courses, online jobs typically make your schedule more pliable, because you can clock in at any hour of the day or night. While you might need some time to get used to working from your home, being able to update an Excel file for your employer and walk two feet to your couch to begin annotating your text is well worth any adjustment period.

Orca Welfare and Safety Act Its Time To End The Cruelty
Orca Welfare and Safety Act It's Time To End The Cruelty image via gifts.worldwildlife.org Itâs crazy to think that everything you love about something can be based on a lie. You know what they say: the more you tell a lie, the more you start to believe it yourself. SeaWorld used to be one of my favorite parks to visit. Watching the trainers do mind boggling tricks with the orcas made me want to be a trainer too. I wanted to have that special bond with the animals and know that I was doing some good by taking care of them. But SeaWorld is built on a fragile bubble of lies, and it was only a matter of time before something came along and burst it for the world to see. That something was Blackfish. If you havenât seen the documentary Blackfish, you need to get on your Netflix account ASAP because it is definitely worth watching. The truth is ugly, and what Blackfish exposed about SeaWorld made people fight back. Blackfish has inspired the making of a new bill, the Orca Welfare and Safety Act, which to SeaWorldâs dismay, is backed up by many. The bill was introduced by State Assembly member Richard Bloom, Dâ"Santa Monica, and if it passes, it will make it âillegal to hold in captivity, or use, a wild-caught or captive-bred orca for performance or entertainment purposes.â David Kirby, Professional Journalist and author of Death at SeaWorld, said in this article that the bill would also ban âartificial insemination of captive killer whales in California and block the import of orcas or orca semen from other states.â image via thebroccolibulletin.wordpress.com The documentary is making people realize how cruel it is to hold these animals captive in tiny pens for their whole lives. They arenât meant to perform little circus tricks for our amusement; they are meant to swim miles and miles in the ocean and be free. I mean, how would you like to be ripped away from your family and then stuck in a tiny bathtub your whole life? Bloom said âThere is no justification for the continued captive display of orcas for entertainment purposes.â Thatâs the thing about the truth: you canât un-hear it, no matter how much you wish you could. Luke Siller, a second year biotechnology student at Palomar College, said âthe whales at SeaWorld live in non-natural conditions such as being held in a cramped dark tank until needed or even stripped of some of their teeth to protect the trainers.â So then we have to wonder, why did it take a documentary to make us see what we all knew was wrong? Michael, an analyst for the Department of Defense, said âSeaWorld was established as a haven for injured or displaced animals, reminiscent of a rehabilitation center (Conservation).â Like many others, I always assumed that all of the animals were rescued, so I was able to reason in my head that they were only in captivity because they werenât fit to go back to the wild and they were having a great life performing and feeling better. But that is the façade, and exactly why this captivity of the animals has been going on for so long. As long as we can hold on to the lie, why question it? According to SeaWorldâs company spokesman, Fred Jacobs, SeaWorld has âassisted whales many times, including killer whales,â when they were lost or stranded. But as Kirby mentions in this article, âin at least three cases, SeaWorld seemed more interested in sending these orcas into a life of captivity to entertain tourists, rather than releasing them back into the ocean.â Thatâs the problem. SeaWorld could keep us as pawns in their spiel because we never saw the aftermath to what they were doing. We just heard that they were helping the animals, and we felt good paying the overpriced park tickets and parking fees because we knew that it was all going back to the animals. image via www.pinterest.com So now that people are fighting back, what will this mean for the whales that are currently at SeaWorld? When I first saw Blackfish, I was pissed, and like many others, wanted the whales to be released immediately. People think that if the bill passes that all the whales will be set free, and this is sadly not the case. Seven of the ten whales currently at SeaWorld in San Diego were born in captivity and therefore would not be able to survive in the open sea. The best alternative for these whales would be a sea pen sanctuary that people would be allowed to visit, but no tricks would be performed. According to this article by Kirby, âAs for the three wild-caught orcas, it could be that only one, Corky, is a viable candidate for releaseâ"and even then, only after an intensive period of rehabilitation, in which she would need to relearn how to catch fish.â Corky is the main potential candidate because she still might remember her pod, which whales need to be in to survive. âThe âFree Corkyâ page at Whale and Dolphin Conservation reads, âShe visibly shook and vocalized poignantly when a tape recording of her familys calls were played to her in 1993,ââ Kirby said. But what about the others? Would sea pens be the answer? âRealistically, the answer to the problem is to stop the breeding program and ensure that the animals are taken care of until the end of their lives,â Michael said. So it could be argued that if SeaWorld were to agree to certain terms of agreement, that maybe it would be okay for them to keep the whales they have, but not capture or breed any more. image via niagaraadl.com Even though some people may fail to see it, these animals have feelings, a sense of self, are intelligent, and deserve to be treated as such. Cruelty ends now. Are you in?
5 Best Elementary Schools in Austin
5 Best Elementary Schools in Austin Starting a childâs education with a successful elementary education is imperative to a childâs scholastic success. We were interested in finding out about the top performing schools in Austin.After researching the best elementary schools in Austin we now have the concrete proof just how great they are. For our first ranking in our school district series, weâll show you how we calculated the Texas Education Agencyâs metrics from the most recent report (2014) to rank each school that met their standards. While the TEA Index is pretty comprehensive, Frog Tutoring decided to evaluate a couple additional factors in the study we found. The following methodology was used in calculation:STAAR Expectations (48%): When taking the STAAR test into consideration, we look at the percentage of students who met or exceeded the expectations of the test in a given year.TEA Index (48%): We utilized the Texas Education Agencyâs 4 areas of academic excellence, which consist of Student Achieveme nt, Student Progress, Closing Performance Gaps, and Postsecondary Readiness.Class Size (2%): Student-to-teacher ratio is important for an individualâs learning, so we took this into consideration.Online Reviews (2%): We have weighted each schoolâs popularity score based on Facebook reviews, Greatschools.org reviews, and K12.Niche.org reviews.If youâd like to see a more in-depth look at the TEAâs metrics for accountability standards, please click here. To determine a definitive ranking for the top elementary schools in Austin, we combined these 7 factors to create one number to compare and contrast the success of each elementary school.1.

Please share in the comments any personal experience that you have had in the Austin Independent School District!5 Best Elementary Schools in AustinCreate your own infographicsNote: We wanted to take a second to explain our methodology, and how we arrived at factoring in each area of success for our rankings. First, we made an extensive spreadsheet (which you can take a look at for yourself here), and collected all of the data that we needed for our results. Then we converted each factor into a percentage and multiplied that number by the percentage of how much itâs worth in our ranking system. Letâs look at an example: LASA High Schoolâs TEA Index ranking is 318/400.318 / 400 = 79.50%Since this is 22% of our total, we used the percentage above to measure how much itâs worth in our ranking system. Which in this case is 22% of the total score.79.50 x .22 = 17.49%If youâd like to know more about this process, please contact our coordinator, Judith, at judith@frogtutoring.com.

(Source: analogicus)We often forget when weâre writing music for the acoustic or electric guitar that our main goal as a musician is to share an emotion with the listener through our musical instrument. Be it a feeling, a message, or energy, you canât forget about the emotion behind it. When we compose for the first time, we tend to forget that and just start putting notes and chords together that sound nice.However, your co mposition depends on the fundamental emotion itâs trying to express.Start by asking yourself what you want from your song:âI want a song that makes people cryââI want a song full energy that makes people feel they can move mountainsââI want the listener to be moved by my song.ââI want to make the listener laughâFor inspiration, listen to the songs that make you feel the way you want your song to make other people feel. You can then see which guitar techniques they're using and how they're strumming or picking the guitar, for example.Keep things simple! It might be tempting to throw everything you know how to do into a song. However, itâs better to do something well than several things poorly. Even if your guitar playing is really impressive, not everyone wants to listen to endless riffs and licks topped off with a 20-minute solo!Remember that the most amazing songs are often the most simple:Oasis - WonderwallThe Beatles - Let It BeLeonard Cohen - HallelujahEdith Piaf - La Vie en RoseU2 - With or Without YouJacques Brel - Ne Me Quitte PasDonât forget to try things, though. You can show others what youâve created, too. Weâre often scared of showing off our work because itâs so personal. That said, you need to put your ego to one side. Remember that any criticism can be constructive, even if it may be difficult to hear sometimes.Thereâs nothing from stopping you creating your own pieces very early into learning how to play the guitar. Donât stop yourself by saying âIâm not good enoughâ or âI donât have any ideasâ. Donât think that all the good songs have already been written. This is completely false as there's no limit to the music that can be created.Finally, think about recording the pieces you make so that you can listen back to them and improvise over the top of them. Don't forget that if you're really struggling, you can also get guitar lessons london (or anywhere really!) to help you learn to play. Every mu sician has to start somewhere, so don't feel ashamed about opting for beginner guitar lessons so you can learn to play different styles of music on your guitar..What Does a Song Consist of?Before starting, think of what makes a song:The wordsThe melodiesThe harmoniesThe rhythmAre you ready to compose your next song? (Source: Didgeman)The importance of each part varies according to the type of music youâre trying to create. For example, if youâre making techno music, you probably only need around four lines of lyrics whereas in rap youâll need plenty. Of course, a guitarist isnât necessarily a singer and you may struggle when writing these parts of the song.Itâs not a problem, though, itâs just something youâll have to spend more time working on. Itâs better to work on your weaknesses than to just ignore them. If you really canât manage it, donât hesitate to ask your guitar tutor or a friend to help you.

You can then find the chords that belong to this key. Some of the most common chord progressions are as follows:I, II, V, II, IV, V, II, V, IV, II, IV, I, VI, VI, IV, VI, II, IV, VI, III, II, VYou can also find others. The most common in D major would be as follows:D, Em, A, DD, G, A, DD, A, G, DD, G, D, AD, Bm, D, AD, Em, G, AD, F#m, Em, AAfter youâve found a chord progression, play them again and again while trying to hum a melody over the top.
