I am so relieved to know that the method in which I study is effective to a more difficult field of education...that is, engineering. These are Pournami Jois's notes and organization, and I thank her for sending me all this stuff. (She's my best friend, in case you want to know!)
To start with...you really need to have fancy supplies. They're not expensive, and are available at any stationary store across India.
You can keep your supplies in a cardboard box.
She has organized different pens in four groups--Black gel, black ball point, blue ball point, and blue gel pens. Make sure you have enough of each type.
The second important thing, of course, is the organization of notes. She has clubbed all her self-notes into binder clips; she has clipped different subjects with different binder clips.
(Check out my self-notes here.)
She uses flags to divide the chapters. As BMM doesn't have chapters, we cannot use flags to do the same in my field.
She has used stick notes brilliantly. In the above picture, she has stuck a cute Miffy stick note and have written down an important question on it.
Even in the picture above, she has done the same.
She has used the yellow stick notes in context with the flow charts. (Maybe someone from her field of engineering would exactly know what she has written.)
Usage of colorful pens while studying is important. She has used a variety of colours for flow charts.
Another important thing is organizing the study material. If your stuff is at its place, you automatically feel like studying, needless to say.
And finally, there should be a comfortable place for studying!

I am really happy that engineering students can use my method. By the way, my BFF has had no ATKT so far; she's in the third year, and no, she was not one of those 'nerdy' students in school to be so successful at studies.
I guess the time has come when you become serious with your studies as well. And if you're an engineering student, and find my study tips useless due to the change in toughness level, then you should definitely read all the above tips, and clear away the misunderstanding.

Today we had a national level conference held at our college. It continues tomorrow as well. They gave us fancy paper folder, along with conference details, notepad, food coupons, and a pen. I had never attended this awesome (and formal) conference before.
I loved this folder.
This is the front side of it. I loved the minute details on it. And yes, lime and grey is always a superb combination.
Just look at the design.
This is its back side.
How cute is that golden thread?
It has sufficient space to hold many papers.
You can make it at home as well.
Goodnight!

Hello!
Recently I've been carrying a small, thin notebook for taking down to-dos that strike me during college hours. This book is definitely functional and useful.
I have this similar book but in French Rose pink colour. It has a soft cover and it is of a hand's length.
As the book is light weight, I don't mind carrying it to college. Many times we remember something amidst lectures; we can use this book to write down that stuff. If we have not carried the agenda, we can surely use this book.
It's a great way to write the things you have to do. You can draw a square before every to-do item. As soon as the work is done, you can tick the square.
I suggest you guys to carry a small notebook like this. If you don't find a good design on the book, then you can always cover it with a fancy gift wrap like I had done to my blog book.
How do you write to-dos?
xoxo

I wanted to write a post on this bottle since November, but failed every time. Remember how I am currently obsessing over drinking water? The sole reason to do so is this bottle.
Reasons why you should buy a lock-bottle:
Ah! I love it.
Which bottle do you use?

The bottle I have is almost like the one in the picture. Thankfully I have a blue one, and not a pink one; pink would've looked less stylish. Anyway, the bottle is Chinese, as it has something written in Chinese on it. But it has 'Gorals Ideal Bottle' written in English as well.
I have no clue from where I've purchased it. One day, after I came home from college, I saw this lying on my computer table. My brother had used it for milkshake. I asked mom about the bottle and she was unaware about its shop, price, or even a minute detail of it...just like me.
So the next day, I washed it, filled water, and started carrying it to college. And guess what? I carry it like a coffee tumbler. It is like a 'water' tumbler to me. I drink a sip of water from it as and when I feel my throat is drying. It is amazing, you know?
It is probably the most stylish bottle I have used in my life. As it is just 450ml, it is easier to carry in hands, and also to keep in bag, as it doesn't weigh much, and is perfect for traveling short distances.
Apart from summer, we don't really need water while traveling to college or work; the bottle can be used that time. We stay hydrated unknowingly. And once you reach college or office, you can fill it up, and reuse. I don't think filling a 450ml bottle would take more than a minute.
As the bottle also has the milliliters written on it, we can even count the amount of water we drink per day. (Remember how I'd mentioned drinking 500ml of water the day I had donated blood?) I love that it has milliliters written on it.
Oh! And it also has filter! If, for example, I am drinking green tea, and have green tea leaves inside the bottle, the filter slab of the bottle will keep the leaves off my lips while I drink! Also, if I'm carrying a lemon juice and have lemon slices inside, how convenient will it be?
I am sure you will find such a bottle in the local plastic stores, but there are certain things that you must check before buying one:
- Colour (Don't just go with pink because it is your favourite colour; buy a colour that would go well with all the outfits. Colours like black, grey, maroon, red, and brown are superb to buy a bottle that would suit every outfit.)
- Capacity to hold water (How much liter/milliliters can it hold? If you want a summer bottle, buy one that would hold a lot of water; if you want it to just sip-and-walk like I do, you can purchase a bottle with 450-500ml.)
- Price (Even if they're assuring you a superb bottle, don't get fooled, and buy a bottle that would be worth every penny you pay.)
- Quality (Check for the plastic. It should be PET, and nothing other than this.)
- Space for Cleaning (Often such bottles have lesser space to put hands inside while washing them. So see to it that you buy a bottle that would be broad enough for you to stick your hands inside and clean it thoroughly.)
- Leakage (Sadly, the bottle I use has a leakage problem. Though I keep it in my hand and hardly keep it inside the bag, still whenever I keep it in, it often turns upside-down, and then few drops of water are leaked from it. So when you buy, ask the shopkeeper that if it leaks, you would exchange it. Take a guarantee from him that he would let you exchange it.)
Reasons why you should buy a lock-bottle:
- It is stylish.
- It is handy.
- It keeps you hydrated as it is stylish and so you feel like drinking more water.
- It gives you confidence. (I don't know if I am the only person here who feels confident after using this bottle, but yes, try it, I guess you guys would feel the same!)
- It doesn't weigh much.
Ah! I love it.
Which bottle do you use?
