VARK Activity
For the VARK Activity I chose to do the Aural Activity. I wanted to interview my best friend Danielle because she's a very hardworking student and I want to learn some of her techniques to be a better student as well. I interviewed her over the phone and she gave some of her some of her favorite techniques. First of all she told me that her agenda as well as her cell phone is her life. Her agenda lets her know everything that she must do in one day. She also prioritises on stuff that must get done first. She manages her homework by seeing how much time something will take or at least give a good estimation on how much time she needs for an assignment to get done. If she has a midterm she studies most of the night and then drinks lots of Coffey to help her stay up till later. she takes pride in the work that she does so she does the best that she can. She's anal and a perfectionists which forces her to get anything done no matter what circumstances she's in. Danielle is not proud of being a perfectionist but she says that pushes her more and motivates her to do her work. She eats well and maintain a physically active throughout the day so that her lifestyle doesn't become boring. She gets involved in school activities so that her life is balanced. When the homework load gets to be alto she take breaks in between to refresh herself and her brain. All these suggestions are really good advice that I plan to follow.

Having an agenda of what your day should look like is always good. It's also important to write it down, so you remember what is still remaining. While you're working on your agenda, it's great to estimate how much time the activity will take so that you can move on to other things on your list. There's a lot you can learn from just talking to friends.
