Introduction
Good morning everyone,
It’s ungodly early where I live, but here I am typing away.
This blog will mainly be about documenting my 4 academic years: my struggles, successes, thoughts, and all the ravings of a college student that has no idea what to do or how to time-manage. I hope that all of you will follow along on my journey to become a better student (and person) and receive some great advice along the way.
Cheers <3
Start of sophmore year!
I hope that everyone starting their second year of college starts their assignments early! What I found out is that the earlier you start things, the less stressed you are when the due date comes around, which also means that you need to keep a to-do list to make sure you turn in your completed assignments, otherwise you will forget that you already finished it!
Don't do what I did, people.
Essay, Creative Writing, Poetry Help!
Hello everyone!!
Long time no see for all of you. I am now busy studying for the MCAT and lots of aesthetic pictures to follow!
My friend and I recently started a small business to help other writers improve! We offer editing and revision for any piece of writing you would want to submit, including assignments, college essays, and more. Think grammarly, but actual people with 3+ years of editing and revision experience. We would love if you checked us out and gave us a follow!
Thank you everyone!

Hobbies, once again
Hey everyone, I'm back and here to tell you that I. LOVE. Birdwatching. It's so peaceful and calming, and seeing their colorful feathers flutter outside my window each morning truly makes my day. I can't tell you how many times I've heard little chirps while I'm studying and taken a break to refill their feeder. Although it's a mindless and easy hobby, it makes me really happy.
My reminder to you this week is while we are grinding out our shadowing and volunteering hours and trying to keep our grades up, make sure you still make time for the activities that light up your soul.
hehehe....I'm Back!! Done with finals and did very well!!
I've been relaxing during this break immensely, and I realize now that the things that used to make me happy (running this blog, writing, art, etc) aren't having the same effect anymore because I've been so used to instant gratification from my phone during long study sessions. No longer to do I crave the feeling of accomplishment when I finish a WIP or a piece or art. And I miss it. A lot. I feel like my brain has become stagnant, hence the very long hiatus. I apologize!!
I'm working on building back my interest in doing things little by little. I can't believe I started a new WIP and one of those diamond art sticker things, but I can only go up from here.
Merry belated Christmas and Happy Early New Year!!
Valedictorian Tips #2 pt. 1
Hey everyone!! I hope your week went well!
As I am writing this at 2 AM, my next tip for y'all is to learn how to manage your time. And, I totally get it if you click out of this post right now because hey, I wouldn't believe advice from a girl who has a messed up sleep schedule. Totally valid; however, I urge you to keep reading, and perhaps I can help stimulate some self-reflection.
I'll be the first to say that I was the. BEST. most ORGANIZED student my high school has ever seen when I was a freshman. I kept a detailed, highlighted, and sticky-noted planner tucked in my backpack that I'd whip out whenever the teacher so much as breathed. Right after sports practice, I'd take the fastest shower and plop myself into a comfy chair and grind out all my homework for the day. Then, I'd spend the rest of my time studying for future quizzes, rewriting notes after notes until a small pile of empty blue pens accumulated nearby.
That's right. All the ink in those pens. Gone.
That being said, you'd think that I would sleep at 10pm, perhaps, then wake up at 7am and do it all over again. And you'd be very, very wrong.
Because, while I was getting good grades, writing cohesive essays, and acing chemistry labs, I was also forgoing exercise, eating like trash, failing to practice my instruments, and texting friends that barely cared about me until 2 AM...
...which is, the time it is right now...
...except, now, not everything is the same. Instead of being surrounded by fake texts from fake friends late into the night, I'm writing this and doing the things I love: crocheting, writing, reading, sketching. It's peaceful. It's quiet. My roomates are asleep, and I'm able to work in silence---a welcome contrast to the cacophony that is dorm life. When I go about my day, I plan my studies around the commitments that are also important, like mental and physical health, clubs, research, hanging out with friends, and spending time with my family. Freshman me would have been appalled at the amount of time "wasted." Time that could have been spent studying.
And sure, maybe she's right.
In her eyes. But not in mine, and not in 10th, 11th, or 12th grade me's eyes either.
Find what's important to you, and create a schedule around those activities. It doesn't matter when you do them, as long as you DO do them. I find peace late at night. Some of my friends find peace early in the morning; but truly, manage your time to fit in everything that grows your soul and makes you happy, because yes, school is important, but so is your overall wellness.
And hopefully, you'll find that you have more time and patience throughout the day!
Hey everyone! 💕
Midterms are all done, and I’m now relaxing because it’s fall break! I really feel like this one is well deserved because I could NOT catch a break.
Reminder for everyone to take time to rest and recharge! I’ll be back to posting more often soon. Here are some midwest road trip pics 🍁
am I going to attack midterms or are they going to attack me
I kicked at least one of them!!! one more to go 😤

Life lately 🍂
life lately is very pretty
Back at it again with the organic chem 💕
I just had my midterm, and I think I did alright! However, I definitely am NOT a fan of taking long exams in those small spinny slidey desk thingies on the sides of lecture chairs in a class of 300+ people who choose to walk all the way up to the front of the class and sit RIGHT NEXT TO YOU after walking into to the exam 10 minutes late when there are 50 chairs behind you 😭 and then rubbing shoulders with said person the entire time and then getting up ten times to grab a tissue.
Guys, it was an experience. But, a good one! I really taught me to focus on the task at hand since I couldn’t afford losing time to focus on the distractions around me. ✨
Every time I think back to Italy, I want to study abroad there 📚
Valedictorian Tips 📚1!
Hi everyone!
As promised, this post marks the start of the valedictorian ravings series! My hope is to provide some guidance and personal insight on my journey through high school, from a wide-eyed freshman to a relieved-that-I’m-finally-done valedictorian. I’ll be addressing overall study habits as well as the mental, emotional, and physical aspects of going through high school.
My intention with this series isn’t to cause stress or place unrealistic expectations on others, nor is it a checklist to be successful. After all, my definition of contentment and success is drastically different now in comparison to my senior year. Rather, I’d like to use this as an opportunity reflect on my high school career—the mistakes I made, the decisions I took, my mentality towards school—and provide insight to help another student struggling with the same things I did.
I’m also open to requests/asks! College application season is very much happening, and having been through it recently (and worked as a writing TA for quite a while,) I have advice to share if it would interest y’all!
As a side note, I went to high school in the U.S., and am aware that there are big differences between school systems in other countries. Although I can’t speak directly about them, I hope that some of the general advice applies.
As a side side note, this series can be found under #valedictorianings.

🌿🍁Such beautiful places to study all of my physiology lectures (I am so behind…)
Physio and chem exam studying! Making notes like this is so satisfying✨
I often dream of being a math/physics girlie ✨
