[:en]How to Have the Perfect First Day at Secondary School (Part 1)[:]

[:en]Sometimes, people have a stressful time, sorting out the stuff they need for secondary school. This article will teach you how to organize your school supplies so that your first day will be relaxed and easy, and so that you will simply breeze through you lessons. This will result in a happier person with better grades, and consequently more friends.

1. Go shopping for the necessary school supplies.

Prepare early, and purchase all your equipment a couple of weeks before school starts.

2. Make sure you have your entire uniform, well before your first day.

Check that it is named, and, if you are getting a second hand one, make sure that it is clean and ironed.

3. Study up!

Go on your schools website and look around. It will contain useful information, and you will probably be using it a lot this year so make sure you know where stuff is. Also read any handbooks or starter packs offered.

4. Get organized.

Put out all your pencils, books and binders and put everything in one backpack or shoulder bag (this should be strong, durable, and weatherproof). Make sure you know where stuff is, and that you have a suitable place for things like a student ID, if your school gives you one. Make sure you write EVERYTHING down in it – exams, homework, its due dates etc. Don’t just write it down on a scrap of paper, or phone a friend later. It won’t work.

5. Rest.

A few weeks before school, start going to bed earlier, and waking up at the time you actually need to, when you start school. Ease yourself into the schedule – and once you’ve started, don’t waste all your hard work by going to bed at 2am.

6. The night before your first day, lay out all your clothes neatly.

Make sure you lay out your socks, shoes and any other accessories you are planning to wear (if your school allows it).

7. Go to sleep nice and early.
