Car hacks for the petrol head in you

Hey guys!

So normally I come with beauty hacks every week but I thought i'd change it up! Today is all about the small hacks you can use in your car to make every trip 100x easier!

Here's my list of simple car hacks anyone can use

1. Starting off small, use cupcake holders in your cup holders to store little things and make sure that your cup holder doesn't get dirty from all the use

2. At night park your car facing the east - towards the sun - so that the morning sun can defrost your car

3. If you have a small dent in your car, you can use a plunger to get that dent out! 

4. Don't have a usb port in your car like me? Buy an adaptor that has either a USB port or your specific charger cord at the end that you can plug into the cigarette lighter

5. You can use toothpaste to help clean those headlights!

6. If you're ever unsure if you should replace the spark plugs or any small part on your car yet, check the users manual and it will let you know as most cars are different, or you can even check out a forum for your specific car!  I recommend checking out http://www.carforum.net/ or http://www.automotiveforums.com/ to get you started and help you out. 

7. If you're unsure on when to check things and just need a helpful guide, this will be able to help you out as a basis but remember, every car is different! Newer cars will run a lot better than older cars and the harder you drive them, the worse for wear they can become.

8. Last but not least, this hack is great for the summer if you want to help cool down your car. Roll the window down of one side of your car, then on the other side of the car, open and close the door a couple times. This creates a breeze through your car that will help cool it down a lot faster in that summer sun!


Enjoy!!

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.

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 put the key points, which should be used as a quick reference when studying.   Image from: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/0a/2

Google Chrome Tricks

The first trick is using alt+left arrow and alt+right arrow to go backwards and forwards a page respectively. This is extremely useful as it allows you to quickly navigate through pages and maximise your time, especially for research tasks where this is vital. The second trick is the use of ctrl+k or ctrl+e , which allows for you to perform a Google search from any webpage. This is great as you can quickly access new information if you are unsure of something whilst researching, shopping online, or just casually browsing the internet. Using ctrl+k will achieve a similar result by selecting all of what is in the URL bar. The final trick is related to the second one, in that it allows you to quickly search for websites.
