New Design
Welcome to the new design of Kalvster Dot Com. As you may have noticed, there were many drastic improvements. Feel free to take a look around and tell me what you think in the comments. Anyhow, here are the highlights of the new changes to this website.
Cleaner Looking Style
Yes, no more slow loading images and scripts. This website is now mostly based on CSS; no more slow loading times!
More Full Articles
That’s right, the excerpts will now be longer when browsing through the index page. Gives a better taste so you can decide to read it or not.
New Logo
I thought my logo should resemble my name more…so I created another one!
No more Lijit search
I found this search plug-in to be highly inefficient. It slowed down the loading time of the website, so I uninstalled it. For now, the default search engine for the website will be used.
Better Mobile Blog
My mobile blog before did not have any pages, but now the pages of my blog can be viewed in mobile too.
That’s all for now. Just thought I would explain what changes there were.

This obviously helps always we all know the saying goes “Practice makes perfect”.
So let’s go say you don’t want to study. Do not let that attitude overcome you that is what leads to failure.
Write and keep notes in organized sections so that you may go back to them for studying.
Seriously! The more you see it, the more likely you will memorize it. Helping you succeed in exams.
Yeah, once again be sure to have your notes! Notes are the best things to study from for exams because they are a summary of what you have learned.
