  • How to Build a Skin-Care Routine as an Adult
    2022/03/20

    Having well-cared skin means that you experience less frequent breakouts and show less irritation on your face. Improving the quality of your skin is easy and can have a big impact on your life.

    Here are the products I use: https://tinyurl.com/mu4774rw

    The Steps

    You can certainly get fancier with it, but a complete skin-care routine has just five basic steps:

    1. Cleanser
    2. Toner
    3. Serum
    4. Eye Cream
    5. Moisturizer

    Until this becomes second nature, write it down on a sticky note and place it on your bathroom mirror, or keep this list handy on your phone.

  • How to Balance Grad School and Your 9 to 5 Job
    2022/02/25

    Achieving a work-life balance with a full-time job can feel stressful enough. Add to that the responsibilities of grad school and it may feel downright impossible. I will talk about my strategies for managing my time and how I can set boundaries in my schedule to make sure I have enough time to work on my assignments.

    Avoid the “Planning Fallacy”

    The most common culprit of stress for grad students is the “planning fallacy”—or overestimating the time it will take to complete short tasks, and underestimating the time it takes to complete projects. Account for every hour in your week, whether it’s showering, working, commuting, cooking, or sleeping. When you need extra time for assignments, review your logbook and reprioritize.

    After tracking how you spend your time, it becomes easier to establish clear boundaries, which can help with time management, as well. Map out a schedule that works with your prior commitments the night before and stick to it. If you allot 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for coursework, for example, don’t start late at 7:30 p.m.
