Exams are approaching, but no matter how much you read, you still can’t remember it 🤷🏻♀️
Don’t worry! Today, NEXKY will introduce you all to 🌟 3 Memorization Techniques 🌟
Let’s begin our revision session!
Memory Palace
⛅️ Choose a place that has a personal link to you. Try your house or school building. ⛅️ Imagine walking along the corridor and see different objects placed inside your house.
⛅️ Imagine the information that you want to remember beside these objects.
⛅️ When recalling, simply imagine yourself walking inside your house and see the objects and information placed beside it!
🏠 Begin by standing in front of your house. Imagine a sign with your group name written on it dangling down from the ceiling. Don’t make it an ordinary sign, imagine it sparkly and bright!
Once you walk through the door, on your left is a shelf. Instead of your family photos, there lies a photo of you and your group member. Look at how many people are in the photo. What are their names?
If one member likes to cook. Let’s imagine walking through the corridor, the first room you see is the kitchen. Imagine that person holding the pan, stirring at the stove. Want to dive deeper? What if that person likes to cook spicy food, loves cooking, but bake rather poorly? Let’s imagine that the stove is lit with ferocious fire. Her face and body is red from the heat of the spices. Yet! Beside your friend is an oven with brown smoke and burnt smell reeking off of it. And when you keep walking, you meet another friend in another room.
With this technique, you will be able to grasp on your information better!
Mnemonics
This technique is super easy. NEXKY believes that everyone has tried it before. Ever heard of ‘RICE – Rest, Ice, Compress, Elevate’⁉️ This is a mnemonic acronym to help us remember how to treat simple injuries at home!
Try putting the first letters of the things you want to memorize in order and make a sentence. It’s best to create an interesting sentence!
Chunking Technique
NEXKY sure thinks that everyone has tried this as well! When memorizing a phone number, you would memorize the first 3 numbers together, the middle 3 together, and the last 4 together (XXX – XXX – XXXX)! But! This technique can be adapted for other scenarios too. Start by finding the common feature among the things you want to remember. For instance, the first letter, quantity, color, or place. If you want to memorize your shopping list, try grouping them according to the first letter! Pants, Potato, Pineapple // Socks, Sushi, Shampoo
With this grouping, you will remember them in no time!
💗 NEXKY hopes that these techniques will do you good.
However, if they don’t work, don’t worry! There are many more techniques to try.
Did you know that these items that we use on a daily basis were initially invented for military use? 🤭 NEXKY has some insights for you!
Here are 5 items that were invented because of the military!
1. Internet
Yes! The internet we are all using right now was invented by the United States because they were afraid that their telephone network would be destroyed by Russian attacks! That is why they created the ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network), the grandfather of our internet! 🔭
2. Drones
The same drone you are aiming to save up for your next vacation was used as pilotless aircrafts or aerial torpedoes! 🚁 Fun fact : The first “drone” that the British developed is called the “DH.82B Queen Bee”!
3. Wristwatch
Back then, instead of wristwatches, soldiers had to manually strap pocket watches onto their wrist and it allowed them to synchronize all the maneuvers without alerting the enemies, making sneak attacks much more effective! ⌚️ Fun fact : After WW1 ended, soldiers used wristwatches in their civilian life!
4. Microwave Oven
When Percey Spencer the scientist experimented on magnetron (tube used to generate microwaves) to generate high power for military radars, he later discovered that the candy bar 🍭 in his pocket started to melt. He then tested it with popcorn and eggs, and many more!
5. Aviator Sunglasses
The same sunglasses you see in your nearby optical shop, was created to help pilots replace big goggles as it fogs up easily. It also helps prevent the sun’s glare when in high altitudes. Fun fact : That is how the brand name “Ray-Ban” came about, it literally “bans” light rays. 🕶
There you have it! These are 5 pieces of equipment that we have all likely come across at some point in our lives! Who would have thought that they originated thanks to the military!
Next time you see these items, share the knowledge with a friend! 🤗
Do you all think it is unnecessary because no one sees it anyways? 🤭

Singapore, a country that holds iconic dishes from various ethnicities. Today, NEXKY is going to break them down for you! (Hint : It’s not just chicken rice!) 🇸🇬🐓
After this read, try to find these hidden gems in Thailand other than chicken rice! 🇹🇭
Here are 6 dishes you must not miss! (Recommended by locals!)
1. Chicken Rice 🐔
Chicken rice has got to be the first dish you all think of as the most classic local dish, and you’re not wrong! The rice itself is so fragrant due to the mixture of chicken broth, ginger, garlic, and pandan leaves! Now pair it with either steamed, roasted, or even poached chicken for the best match!
2. Carrot Cake 🥕
No, it is not an actual cake you find in a dessert shop! Carrot cakes are savory and made of radish mixed with eggs and garlic. Some people prefer carrot cake fried in dark soya sauce for a sweeter taste.
3. Kaya Toast 🍞
If you don’t know what to have for breakfast, locals recommend crispy toast with slabs of butter and a whip of kaya paste. For the best pair, enjoy it with coffee or tea and some soft-cooked eggs!
4. Nasi Lemak 🍚
The go-to meal that locals find is this fragrant coconut rice alongside various sides. Packed within the pandan leaves contains fried chicken, grilled fish cake, dried anchovies, egg, fried fish. To top it off, a spoonful of sambal chili paste will also be included for the best taste!
5. Hokkien Mee 🍝
One of the most favorite dishes amongst Singaporeans is Hokkien Mee! This stir-fried dish comprises a mixture of egg noodles and rice noodles along with prawns, shrimps, fishcake, bean sprouts, squid, and even pork lard! 🦐🦑
6. Laksa 🍝
Although the rice noodles are thick, they are usually cut into small pieces so you can easily eat them with just a spoon! Dip them in spicy coconut soup cooked with big portions of cockles and prawns, and you have just tasted one of the most local Singaporean dishes!
And there you have it, these 6 dishes are commonly found and beloved by Singporeans. 🤩🇹🇭 NEXKY hopes you are all enlightened, and remember, Singaporeans don’t just eat chicken rice! 🐔🇸🇬
Running. Something many of us have dreaded to do. 😵
“It’s too hot.” “I have work.” “No one is running with me!” 🥵
These are all the reasons you’ve told yourself when you decided not to go. But we all know there are health benefits to it, but let’s do a quick refresher course together! 🤗
Here are 5 reasons why NEXKY thinks you should run!
Maintaining A Healthy Weight 🏋🏻♂️
Whether you are running daily or you run once a week, it is the consistency that allows you to burn off some body fat and maintain a healthy weight. Do not worry that you will become too skinny if you are running regularly, just make sure to replenish the proteins and calories you have used up during training!
Runner’s High 🥰
You may have heard this phrase before. It is essentially a mixture of feeling excited and reduced anxiety, which is created by your “feel-good hormones”. This sense of euphoria allows you to feel happy in the long run, reduces depression, and increases your motivation to stay happy!
Healthier Bones 🦴
Do you often feel weak and want stronger bones? You don’t need to be hitting the gym to achieve that! Regular running can also help build stronger bones and reduce the risk of Osteoporosis!
Stronger Heart 🤎
If you consistently run, you are helping your heart become healthier and it reduces the risk of having heart failures and strokes 🤕. With a healthy heart, your life expectancy would also increase!
Better Sleep 😴
If you are having trouble sleeping, especially due to the stressful workload you are facing, regular running can help improve your sleep quality as exercising makes you feel tired and relaxes your brain. 🥱
Whether you are already running now or you are thinking of running, NEXKY believes that these 5 benefits can definitely inspire you to run even more!
Stay healthy and NEXKY wishes you all the best! 🥳
If you don’t feel well after exercising, don’t forget to rest and go see a doctor when needed 🩺.
