SKINCARE TIPS!!!!! (for a healthier skin & body)Ā
š brush your teeth in the morning & before you go to bed. make sure youāre using a mouthwash that is alcohol-free. do not brush your tongue instead use aĀ tongue scraper.
š„ re-apply sunscreen every 2 to 3 hours. use mineral sunscreen & spf higher than 30. also get a sunscreen lip balm.
š change your pillowcase every 3 days. replace your current pillowcase for a silk pillowcase, it helps reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles & causes less hair breakage.
š switch to a bamboo wooden brush, itĀ helps to increase the blood flow to the scalp & promotes hair growth. give yourself aĀ scalp massage every morning for 10 minutes this will relax the mind and encourage circulation forĀ hair growth.
š use castor oil to increase hair growth for eyebrows every nightĀ when you go to bed. i personally did this myself when i barely had eyebrows and they grew back in 2 months. you can also use it on your eyelashes, but be careful and use with an eyelash wand.
š you can use coconut oil to remove makeup especiallyĀ mascara.Ā
š use rose water as a makeup setting spray.
š donāt forget to apply serum &Ā moisturizer to your neck.
š use sunglasses that have uv protection.Ā go for sunglasses with mirrored lenses. they block more uv rays than regular tinted lenses.
š stop chewing gum.Ā constantly chewing gum can stretchĀ and deform your facial muscles. choose to freshen your breath with mints instead.
š„ use a chemical exfoliantĀ because scrubs can only remove whatās on the surface of your skin, whereas chemical exfoliants get deeper to shed more dead skin cells and promote healthy cell regeneration. remember to use a differentĀ exfoliant for your face & body.
š donāt let the water in the shower directly hit your face. a little is fine, but the pressure can cause damage to the skin.
š replace your meals & drinks for alternative options. drinking coffee? switch to green tea and if you can go for matcha green tea. lots ofĀ health benefits.
Just a reminder, but you do not need to āearnā being tired.
Youāre allowed to be tired, even if you havenāt ādoneā anything and youāre allowed to be tired even if you did less than someone else.
Being tired is a normal thing your body does for a whole plethora of reasons, and is a basic bodily function. You donāt need to āearnā basic bodily functions, no matter what anyone else tells you.
My weekly overview and to-do list before school starts. Hopefully my bujo will keep me motivated this year š // Mi vista semanal y lista de tareas antes de que empiezan las clases. OjalĆ” que mi bujo me mantenge motivada este aƱo š
Yes, I procrastinated on this procrastination masterpost.
But thatās totally natural, and no one is ever going to completely cut out their procrastination habits. However, here are some (probably overused and not that helpful) tips that you can attempt to keep you from those nasty habits.
1.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā When you get home, DONāT flop onto the couch thatās been calling your name since the second you arrived. Flop onto a different one. Lol jk donāt do that. Instead, head straight to your desk or whatever working space you have and figure out your homework set up. This is a great way to get yourself on track as soon as you get home and decreases the time spent away from schoolwork.
2.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Get the bigger tasks done first. Yes, the ones that you probably already procrastinated on and have left for the last day. The ones that arenāt just a simple essay but also needs two back up articles, a 3D model, a power point presentation, original soundtracks and a whole filmed and edited movie. Yes, those projects. Once you get down to the last of your tasks, theyāll be quick and easily finished.
3.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Donāt stress. This is obviously easier said than done however I want to mention it because it truly helps. When we stress we make our problems seem bigger than what they really are. This in turn only adds stress and keeps us from starting those assignments because we know think they will take us a long time to complete.
4.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Keep yourself organized and clean. I know that when Iām working in a disastrous environment, much less do I want to get up and work. If you keep your school work organized and your room tidy, youāll have one less excuse to not start on your homework.
5.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Donāt forget to enjoy some music. I have always been a music oriented person and simply cannot work without it. Put on your favorite playlist or whatever helps you work and begin. It helps to pass the time and makes you forget about how long the assignment will take to finish.
There you go guys! This masterpost has been multiple times on numerous occasions but I hope it still helped in the end. My question for today is, what do you listen to when doing school work?
Also! Donāt forget to check out the rest of this series here!
-much love, studyessieĀ ā”
1. get up early get up at 6, half past 7. it takes you time to get shit done. also go to bed early, especially at your exam days. 2. do morning routine wash your face, brush your hair, do yourself a healthy breakfast. it will help you to get in the right mood to study/work. also check your feed in instagram, watch some netflix - but not for like an hour. 3. do something that makes you happy pet your doggo, watch lazytown, draw a painting. get some rest before hard work. 4. do a study plan i mean, you study economics til 2.30 pm, then study biology til 4.00 pm, like that. also i recommend study exact science (math, eco, algebra) with humanities (biology, geography, english, literature) because itās a bit harder but very productive. 5. breaks so i recommend study for an hour (a half and an hour if itās a difficult subject for you) and do a 30-minute break. very productiveĀ 6. the rest ā¢Ā after long study day, go for a walk. with your friends, with your parents, with your doggo - it doesnāt matter. you need fresh air. without phone (only music if it makes you feel better). if the weather is awful - open the window and do some yoga. very relaxing much comforting 7. free time clean your room, take a bath, read a book. do something useful !warning! - do not read your notes (if itās exam day) every fifteen seconds. it will not help you. you better exercise in the morning - then in the afternoon - then when you go to bed (30 minutes, no more).Ā 8. night routine as i said in the begining - go to sleep early, at 10 or 11. also wash your face, put some night mask on, brush your teeth, pack your backpack (i usually do it in the evening). put an alarm clock if you need one.
So, itās that time of the year again, back to school. And right now, some of you are probably panicking a little because, letās face it, school starts soon and you have not glanced at your to-do list since June. But donāt be afraid, lots of us are in the same boat. I myself ambitiously drafted out a long list of things to do this summer, including studying C++, studying Chinese, preparing for new course work, studying quiz bowl, and exercising. However, I was abroad for five weeks, spent lots of weekends at the beach, slept in, and generally slacked off. Now, itās not too late to pick up the pace and get into the study grind to get a good start this school year. Below are some useful tips!
Academic Tips:
Print off your new school schedule immediately and build your personal schedule around that. (Figure out which time blocks are for studying, exercise, sleep, mealtime, extracurriculars, and chill time.)
Buy a planner and start using it. It doesnāt have to be personalized or fancy, just make sure it suits your taste and is usable. Even though you may not have classwork right now, start using it to complete tasks and get in the habit of writing in it.
Search up your teachers/professors on RateMyProfessor to (kinda) know what youāre in for. Obviously, those reviews are a little skewed so read them with a grain of salt, but know which professors are lecture heavy and which classes rely on the textbook. This really helped me last year.
Get in the habit of reading and writing a bit everyday. That way, your first assignment wonāt be nearly as painful. Just write a little in a journal or read some NYT articles to critically engage your brain.Ā
Look over the first chapter of your textbooks. The first chapter and introduction in books really explain what the course is about, so if youāre afraid of feeling stranded in class, read them.
If you have questions or concerns about your courses, email your professors or teachers. They want to help their students.
Map out where you have to go for each class. Whether itās changing floor in the same building or booking it across campus, make sure you know where youāre going the first week of class. Highlight your routes on a map of the school if you need.
Lifestyle Tips:
Itās nice to sleep in over summer break, but start waking yourself up earlier. Figure out what time you need to wake up, factor in the 7-8 hours of sleep you need, and determine the ideal bedtime. Set an alarm and start slowly winding back your wake up time. For example, if I need to get up at 7:00 AM for school, Iāll sleep until 8:30 for one week. Then Iāll wake up at 8:00 the next week, and 7:30 the week after that so my body can slowly adjust to the earlier mornings.
On a similar note, start going to bed at the appropriate time. It may be frustrating to do so when itās still bright out at night, but this really helps your body adjust. The lights from devices keep you up, so get accustomed to ditching the electronics before you get in bed.
Make sure your outfits are school ready. I know my math lecture is in a really chilly old building, so Iām pulling out a few sweaters to bring with me to class. If your school has a dress code (which can be annoying) or uniform, make sure your outfits comply.
Get your bag and supplies ready. This is fun for me, because I usually end up shopping and getting some new cute accessories and stationery.
Start a new healthy habit with the school year. This is a good time to try to stick in something new. Get a reusable water bottle and try to drink 8 cups a day, or add meditation to your night routine. You wonāt regret it!
Now, most of these tips are applicable to both high school and college, but if you want high school or college specific tips, let me know in my messages or ask box and Iāll make another post. Have an amazing school year!

hi honeys !! iām back with another self care masterpost because we all know self care is probably my favorite thing in the world. anyways, these are just a few tips (that i actually came up with myself in my own bujo to help me stay productive and motivated) to help you get back into the swing of things as school starts up again :)
take a nap after school rather than just wasting timeĀ ārelaxingā (aka scrolling through twitter for hours @ me)
start homework at school (if possible)
be okay with giving yourself breaks and rest periods, but make sure what you do in those times is actually serving you
work in a coffee shop to get stuff done, but budget yourself. this is helpful but also an easy way to drop a ton of cash in a short amount of time
alternative to above: work in a library or (if you have a big campus or live near a university) go to their mainĀ ācenterā and just chill out there, there are restaurants but also just tables for anyone to use.
be realistic with your time and actually budget it. your time is valuable.
start things early
make small, personal deadlines
reward yourself
work outside
experiment with your studying/writing/working methods - itās okay to change things up
let things flow
know that you deserve everything youāre working towards
hope this is helpful,
xoxo annie

Wow I am the worst at keeping up with this account I apologize. Overall this past school year was probably the worst ever and I have never been so constantly sad and stressed at all times but itās okay because I got a scholarship for full tuition and fees at my #1 college so Iām optimistic for the future⦠also terrified. College is scary.Ā
Hopefully as I start to review things for the upcoming school year Iāll have more things to post but for now here is one of my study guides for AP Music Theory.Ā
<< helping your mental health: back to school >>
we all know that school is tough. really tough. and your mental health can suffer, which can lead you to burning out or becoming exhausted and unmotivated for a long period of time, which you donāt want.Ā
self-care. as we all know, i am a massive lover of self care. i think itās so important and itās enjoyable too, so what reason could you have to not want to practise it? it can be simpler than you think, too - i might make a list of self care things, although iāve reblogged a bunch and linked them in other masterposts - for example: standing outside your front door/building and taking a few deep breaths or brushing your teeth or washing your face.Ā
know your limits. know how long you can study for until you start getting distracted, and begin to set timers. for example, i can work comfortably for about half an hour before i need a break, so iāll set a 30 minute timer, then have a five or ten minute break depending on what im doing in that break (if im eating then five but if adding to my bullet journal then it could need ten minutes), then continuing this until my work is done or itās late etc.Ā
talk to people. for me, my friends are my therapists. i go to them and spill out my thoughts and they help me - they give me a hug and give me advice and tell me that i will be fine, iāll always be fine, i can get through it, and that they will be there for me every step of the way. find someone you can wholeheartedly trust and talk to them every time you feel yourself beginning to bottle things up. bottling. up. is. not. good.Ā
reward yourself. if thereās a particular day on your timetable that you hate or that is really difficult for you to get through (last year on a monday i would have 200 minutes of business - our timetable having three 100 minute lessons a day, and on mondays we would essentially have two business lessons) make sure you reward yourself at the end of the day. maybe thatās taking yourself to a coffee shop after school to relax, or to the bookstore and buying a new book or a nice new pen (donāt do this one too often since it spends a lot of your money over time) or visiting the library to talk to a regular youāve made friends with or to read for a while, or have a bath or tidy a room or area in your house or call a friend or anything else you can think of.Ā
breathe. i do this thing called the 7-7-8 breaths, but you can change this to 5-5-6 or 6-6-7,, whatever suits you. breathe in for seven seconds, hold it for seven seconds, breathe out for eight seconds. repeat this until your heartrate has slowed to normal, youāre breathing comfortably, and you feel calmer.Ā
this is all i have for now, itās not much but hopefully it helps in some way. feel free to message me if your mental health isnāt okay; we can talk or i can give you some self care things to do. ily all, stay healthy.Ā
