Have you ever walked barefoot through the grass? They say it is a relaxing experience, but you also may be afraid to step on a bug! 

One shoemaker had the idea to make sandals that give the same sensation as you would get walking through fresh grass! They are called Grass Flip Flops and they are recommended for everyone who leads a stressful life and needs more contact with nature.  

These original and green shoes are made from 5,000 blades of grass. When you are not using them you have to put them in the sunlight and water them. If taken care of, these fun sandals can last for up to 4 months.

There are 24 hours in a day and sometimes they seem to fly by, and at the end of the day we feel like we haven’t accomplished anything.

When we feel this way, we can also feel distracted, and have a hard time completing one thing at a time. We are sure this has happened to you for example: you are doing your homework and then you get stuck and look for the answer for something on the Internet. Then before you know it you’re looking at something else off topic, yet interesting, on the net. When you go from one project to the next without finishing one, you’re wasting time.

To avoid this, and take advantage of the time you do have, we recommend the following:
Make a list of things you would like to do everyday, including all homework and extra curricular activities.  Try not to put anything more than you can actually accomplish.

Make another list with all the things you like to do on it: read, hang out with friends, use the Internet, update your blog…then pick an hour or so slot when you can do these hobbies. Make sure that you are not spending too much time doing these hobbies during the week, but give yourself some time to do them because otherwise you feel overwhelmed by schoolwork.

Finally, when you do get down to business and are doing homework, turn off any distractions. Turn off the computer, go to a quiet place, make sure your room is organized, and have everything you need with you so that you don’t have to get up many times looking for something you think you might need.
