I did a thing
Google like a boss!
This is relevant to librarian-ing.
This would make such an excellent hand out for students.
Wheee I use these! They make Google a much more effective search tool.

this is all temporary
I believe in you
be kind. be ridiculously, radically, endlessly kind. be a part of someone’s good day. send nice thoughts, send positive vibes, send support and love and well wishes. be kind. so often we wish for tomorrow to be a good day when we are at our lowest. some sort of sign that it gets better. be a part of that better day for someone. the world does not magically decide that it will be softer on you today, tomorrow, the next day. and sometimes it starts with a message from someone else, maybe a little bit of inner strength to pull yourself up and take a shower, maybe a bit of sunlight makes the day better. but it’s these small things, these soft things that make a day better. so be kind. don’t ever think about being anything other than kind. be a part of someone’s good day because you don’t know how desperate they might be for it.
The view from the foot of my bed
This is fricking gorgeous
Feynman's technique
This is the reason I passed my mid year exams even if I procastinated at the beginning of the year and only studied days before exams.
This technique is just like teaching someone except you’re writing your words down.
You start by reading your textbook and notes and learn as much as you can for that study session. After that you take a notebook (prefaribly for this technique only) and you start explaining this the way you understand it. When you get lost, go back to the textbook and read again, close the book and explain that on paper.
I swear if I had started using this technique at the beginning of the year (unlike most my school year starts in january) I would have gotten straight A’s because it’s like photocopying the information to your mind.
You’ll know the subject like you’re a teacher.
Need to try this
hey, guys! It’s mel here again with another masterpost for you: on the dreaded topic of back-to-school! Hopefully, this will help you dread going back to school a little less ^-^

What's your superpower? No rerolls!
http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Random
wow. what a superpower.
HELICOPTER PROPULSION
TRUE FORM.
The power to assume one’s power, item, or their own body’s true form to obtain its true power. A variation ofPower Manifestation, Super Form, and Double-Edged Power. The opposite of Sealed Form.
Dance Combat…..isn’t that capoeira? I mean, that’s cool, but I don’t know if it’s a superpower exactly…
Habitable Anatomy.
I don’t think I like this.
Jade, you can use it to make your body habitable. No more chronic illnesses. No nothing. That would be awesome. (I got Meta-Concept Manipulation. Which… Could be amazing?)
ALIEN MIND: power to possess a mind so alien that it is incompatible with normal minds.
And it shows a picture of the Joker.
Isn’t this what I already have?
Astral Vision
The ability to see overlapping dimensions beyond the physical plane of existence
(At first I thought it was going to be the ability to see the Jetson’s dog, but I guess that would be Astro Vision.)
Blood propulsion
The ability to propel one’s self using blood.
how is this different than what happens to me every month.
“The ability to evolve by absorbing and consuming.”
It would appear I already have this superpower.
I steal people’s willpower
Rude
Magical Beam Emission. Sweet!
Rain generation
Pyrotechnic manipulation
Body temperature manipulation, yesssss
Electric Breath
Um… Better than morning breath I guess lol
White Arts: a form of magic typically used for help other people by healing the mind, body and/or soul.
So does his mean I can skip the rest of med school?
