Chapter 8

In this chapter it helps us take tests better and gives us advice and tips to help pass tests. You have to pace yourself and plan for the long term. They talked about to cram everything into one section or else you will forget a lot of things. It also says that you need to stay healthy because you will have fewer problems and have energy to study. When you plan for short term you want to know what is going to be on the test, what types of questions are going to be on the test, and many more. For me I usually make flash cards to help me remember things, but during math tests I am use practice problems so i can learn how to do it perfectly. Another way that helps me study is teaching another person how to do the work. What i have a really problem with is essay tests because they are so long and i stress them very much. But in this chapter it helped me get better in essay tests and gave me some advice like highlighting parts of the prompt paraphrasing each paragraph.

Weekend

During the weekend i got my iphone 3gs and it was really cool. I put all these cool apps and even go to on the internet. I never knew how much a phone can be entertaining. I also went home and had a party at my cousins house because someone from vietnam came to America for their first time. They brought back many things from vietnam to share with us. The good there was great. We were watching the College Football games and taught the people from vietnam how it works. It was hard but still fun. I had a great weekend

Campus Moive Fest

(campus movie fest ticket)
Campus Movies Fest was fun. When my friends and I got there we got to take pictures on the red carpet like it was a really big event for celebrities. I felt famous. The movie fest was really fun. I wished i won a door prize. The movies were really funny and fun. My favorite movie was Out of the box. I thought the director made it look cool because i liked how the kid went to different countries. Another movie that i thought was cool was fun scare because they made it so funny and how they pretend to be the statue outside of clark building. The door prizes were cool, i almost caught a tshirt when they came out and threw them. That night was the first time i saw the president of San Jose State University. All the movies were great i had a good time. Hopefully someone in San Jose State wins the whole competition. It would be really good. It was a fun time.
