| Meet Powder Blue Writer Lily Green!
| |
|
Hi everybody! My name is Lily and I'm one of the editors for The Powder Blue. I'm a sophomore IMC major from Ocean Springs! Outside of The Powder Blue, I am also a member of the Pride of the South Band, RUF, and I work in Athletics with Event Management.

I wanted to share some tips on how to feel your best about exams!
1. Study a little bit every day.
2. Take frequent mental breaks to have your best focus while studying.
3. Eat and stay hydrated.
4. Rest, especially the night before.
5. Take time for yourself, such as reading a book, or watching a new movie or TV show.
