If you guys are still in school and use Quizlet then there's a way to breeze by the learning tool. What you do is when you click on learn theres a button in the bottom corner that says options i belive. Set that to written answers only. That way when it tells you to write an answer instead of multiple choice you can type in anything. It will say that you got it wring but theres an override button which will give you the point.
Im sorry if that was confuesing ;w;

Sometimes I have so many tabs open at once that the tabs look squished together and it's hard to change back and forth between them. If you double click on the tab it will have the option "Add tab to new group" you can add as many tabs to a group as you want, and you click on the group button to view all of them and click again to his, this just makes organizing a bit easier. You can also change the color of each group!

If you have Windows on your computer, this nifty trick can work for you.
1. Click on the Windows logo in the bottom left hand corner of your screen, if you have it.
2. Search either "bubbles.scr", "ribbons.scr", or "mystify.scr".
3. Open the program and your screen should be filled with a multi-colored pattern.
Once you move your mouse the effect disappears, but it's a gorgeous screen saver!
