Be Happy today in Studying

Write
comics, short stories or songs

There
are endless songs written that could have been designed to help you study.
Think about Tom Lehrer’s Elements song
or Flanders and Swann’s First
and Second Law. Putting something into rhyme or setting it to music
helps a great deal in remembering it, not only through the end product but also
through the process of composing your poem or song in the first place.

If songs don’t suit you, try a different creative activity, like drawing a
comic or writing a story. This might be a comic that maps out a particular
scenario in History, or it could be a story where the conclusion rests on a particular
principle in Physics. Add in some puns and wordplay on difficult concepts to
make them easier to remember and you’ll have created a useful study aid and
enjoyed yourself doing it.
