I've always turned in work that didn't look the best. Its quality was great but the appearance was lacking. How can I make my assignments more interesting looking?

http://www.c2educate.com/c2-tips/3-study-tips-for-labor-day-weekend/ I know how to study and I can do it during

the week when I don't have anything to do. But on the weekend I have my brothers' soccer games to attend and I have to visit family, in addition to the occasional "hang" invites from friends. How do I study on the weekend when I'm tempted with fun?

How is my weekend different from my weekday when it comes to studying and doing work?

can’t focus in the morning because it’s too early, and sometimes I can’t focus at night because there’s so much going on. How can I figure out when the best time to study is for me?

Most days, I have a lot of homework, causing me to stay up later than I probably should. Does this affect my school performance? If so, how?
