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

Google Chrome Tricks

Hey guys, Today I wanted finish up on Google Chrome with some individual tricks that can be very useful. These aren’t really related to one specific topic, but are great tricks to remember. The first trick is using alt+left arrow and alt+right arrow to go backwards and forwards a page respectively.

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...
