Welcome life squad!


It's Tiarni, Catherine, Oliver and Alex and we all wish to welcome you to our blog!

We are creating this blog to give you all great life hacks that you can use in everyday life including aspects like beauty, cars, study tips and computers. 

You may not know much about us yet but here's an introduction to each member.


Tiarni
Hey guys! I'm Tiarni as noted above and a random fact about me is that i'm only 4'9", i know, it's short. That fact may not have been a life hack but its a getting to know you process where I would now tell you about what i enjoy.

I have a love for beauty and makeup so of course you will see some great posts about ways to make your everyday makeup journey a lot faster if you can get lazy or run out of time just like I do! My time management may be poor but I know how to throw on some makeup in a couple minutes because of it!! I also am greatly interested in cars and so if you don't see Alex posting about them, then you may see me giving you a few pointers to pimp out your  ride!


Catherine
Hi everyone! I'm Catherine and a random fact is that I like to hand sew pencil cases. 

I know studying can be really difficult, and you often don't know where to start. Here at Life Hacks 101, we will be sharing a couple of tips, including those that I have picked up so far. Please feel free to share your own tips as we go through this journey together!


Oliver
Hey guys, I'm Oliver and I am your average computer nerd. Fortunately for you, the many late nights spent browsing the web has allowed me to uncover many of the hidden secrets of computers and the internet.

Ranging from increased Google search capabilities to recovering potentially lost documents, there are so many ways to increase your online ability. These computer hacks won't get you in trouble with law enforcement, but they will blow your mind.


Alex
Hi guys, the name is Alex. I enjoy hanging out with my mates and going on bike cruises. While Tiarni enjoys cars, I enjoy motorbikes. I'll be giving you guys some great life hacks and advice on essentials to carry with you on any journey you take as well as random life hacks. 


That's all from us today but make sure to stay tuned for posts almost everyday from us!
Here are the days we post:

Note-taking Tips

These note-taking tips are really helpful when listening to lectures/readings when making notes. Develop or use symbols and abbreviations. I would recommend keeping a key, such as the example below at the beginning of your book just in case you forget what the symbols mean. Image from: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/0b/66/78/0b66783e9dcf8a93bc6f50a7ad214991.jpg Another tip to use the Cornell Note-taking method. Simply divide your notes into 3 sections.  -           The right column is the general notes area. The notes area is where you keep the most important ideas the teacher covered. Try to summarise this as much as possible. -           The left column is the cues area. This is where you write notes in the margins to help you understand the main ideas. -           The bottom section is the summary . This is where you ...

Perfect hacks for lazy people like me!

Hey guys! Are you as lazy as me and sometimes just want to get away with the bare minimum before going out? Well then I have some great news for you! Here are my top tips on how to get away with the bare minimum on those lazy days 1. If you’re feeling extra tired because you didn’t get enough sleep from all the Netflix binging or even partying- that of course your friends dragged you out to – use a white eyeliner to make you seem more awake!

If you are like me and love makeup but find it tedious to look at reviews and go into s...

Learning to Budget

Budgets Whether your a university student or not, budgeting is a important life skill to have. If your a university student reading this, you know the struggles when i comes to balancing work, University, social life and money. Sometimes the bank account has to take a hit in order for you to get that next assessment done or you end up working instead of getting that time with friends or family. This is when a budget/plan comes in. It helps you manage your finances by planning ahead based on what you might spend or what you might be saving up for. Documenting your expenses The first step towards a budget is working out how much you earn vs how much you spend.

Then offsetting that by working out how much you earn on average a month (fortnightly also is a great option). This helps you calculate whether at the end of a typical month your making a profit or a l...
