Summer Olympics: Who can run the fastest? :) Who can swim the fastest? :) Who can do the best somersault? :)
Winter Olympics: WHO CAN MAKE IT TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS ICE SLIDE OF DEATH AND SURVIVE?? WHO CAN GET AROUND THE RINK WITHOUT GETTING THEIR HANDS SLICED OFF BY EVERYONE ELSE’S FEET BLADES?? CAN THIS GUY DO A 1080 DEGREE FLIP WITHOUT DYING??
Hey everyone! We wanted to take the chance to thank you guys for helping us reach 17K followers. When we started this blog as a way to motivate one another despite our ‘long distance friendship’, we never dreamed that it would become so big! We can’t even begin to express how much this means to us 💖
STARTER KIT
We’ve recently been getting a number inboxes asking for suggestions to a perfect studyblr starter kit. So we’ve decided to brainstorm, and compile a beginners list to some basic/typical studyblr stationary ^_^
The list doesn’t include ALL the stationary the studyblr community uses, but simply the stationary that we personally love and use, and would 10/10 recommend for anyone 🌟

• cook more often
• start graduate school
• complete one major project
• journal more than ever

Top 10 things I wish I had known going to High-School
DO NOT OVERPACK. Only take the essentials with you to school. From personal experience, I know that it’s tempting to take all the binders, pens, notebooks, etc. that you can. Don’t. Just take the essentials. Your back will thank you.
Wear comfy shoes. You do not want to walk around school in shoes that give you blisters
Drink water.
Don’t skip lunch.
Make sure to plan out assignments as soon as you get them so you don’t procrastinate
Use a planner. Always.
Always have a pack of gum
Create positive relationships with your teachers
Always have someone pick up your stuff if you miss a day
It is OK to take a mental health day. Do it. You will feel better mentally.
Had a productive day of rewriting my marketing notes.✨ // My Instagram
1:52 4402 // I haven’t posted a studygram photo in a while, so here are some old notes for my cell bio class. It was difficult but the material was super interesting! Is it weird I’m kind of excited for school to start again? 📝 I’m spending the day studying and then going to open gym with my friends to practice tumbling and hopefully stunting. taken from my Instagram: @izzybooks
I’ve written my first notes for summer school!! And I’ve now done about 18 hours of #thestudyingnovember challenge! Today has been a really good day. I met up with a friend that I hadn’t seen in ages, cleaned up a lot of clutter in my room, and got everything done that was on my to-do list 😀 . Let me know if you’d be keen to 👀 me start a YouTube channel (I’m very much considering it). . I hope you’re all doing well, and if you’re not.. remember that tomorrow’s a new day! 😘

my essay (due tomorrow)
me: [learns the meaning of a previously unknown word]
the word: [coincidentally starts showing up everywhere in the following days]
me:
never let your printer know that you waited until the last minute to print something and you’re in a hurry. they can sense fear
the worst thing about college is that classes are either like
midterm - 30%
paper - 30%
final - 40%
or they’re like
attendance - 5%
participation - 10%
reading reactions (5 papers worth 2% each) - 10%
midterm - 20% (15% for grad students)
final paper rough draft - 5%
final paper - 15%
group presentation - 10%
final exam - 20% (25% for grad students)
stapling your papers in the correct corner - 2%
breathing - 8%
that’s it no in between
College/Grad School Tip: Smile at your peers while they’re giving presentations. I know that class presentations can be boring to sit through, but presentations are always hard to give even if you’re an experienced public speaker. One friendly face can make the whole crowd seem more open and help people feel more confidence. We’re all experiencing academia together, so let’s all support each other.
