08.12.2017; my arabic exam is really close, so i must start working harder now. i don’t think i’ll do great because i’m way behind my classmates (i joined the class two months later than them), but i feel like i’m learning so much, i feel way more confident with the language now, and it makes me so happy ♡
also, i started a new book under my father’s recommendation: ‘the seven minutes’ by irving wallace.
Quick reminder, especially for you younger undergrads: Discipline is a skill, not a character trait. And just like any skill, it can be practiced and improved upon incrementally. Try not to get discouraged if you have a day, or multiple days, where you are less disciplined than you would like or need to be. Don’t quit. Don’t spend the next week binging Netflix because you think it’s a hopeless endeavour. Just get up the next day and try again. Each day you try is more practice, and each day you practice, you’ll get a little bit better, and that continual improvement will pay dividends in the long run.
Keep at it.

I’m in the last stretch!! I just have my chem final tomorrow and then I’m done with this semester 😭 I’m also sick so I’m ready to have a break. This may be my last post until next year since I’ll be traveling to Pakistan over break and will probably not have great connection to post. Happy Holidays to all of you!

💡25/100 days of productivity:
Lots of free periods due to teachers meetings lately, so I’ve been using them to catch up with my procrastinated work. I feel like I’m getting back on track lately and I love it! Currently memorizing Ancient Greek verbs ft. pizza and the regular coffee with friends.
English Commentators: he runs up and he makes the goal. What a nice goal that was.
Latino Commentators: corre al gol, lo va a patear yyyy GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoOoOoOoOoOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!! GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL!!!!!......QUE GOLAZOOOOO!!!!
if you read in a frog paper “specimen was released in the field immediately after capture” chances are very good that what it actually means is
“i dropped the damn frog and despite the fact that we fell all over each other no one could recapture it”
sometimes when i am sad i go read through the tags on this post, because they are 70% other biologists saying things like “AND ALSO FUCK FIELD MICE” and “THAT CRAB ALMOST BROKE MY FINGER” and I am reassured that I am not the only one who has bobbled a wood frog right into their cleavage.
plus six or seven people who just….can’t figure out what a frog paper could possibly be. (guys it’s…a scientific paper. about frogs.)
and this one
which made me laugh despairingly because i mean
bro you don’t even know.
I was so fed up with school because it seemed like my best was not even enough. I gave it my all and I still received bad grades. It’s all good though, tomorrow is a new day and I will try again.
20/100 days of productivity 🥐💻
I’m almost done with an essay! I didn’t do much besides that.
Finals are two days away now oh no
This winter wonderland is killing my plants (and the fact that I always forget to water them.)
The bright side is: this winter wonderland prevented me from going outside so I went ahead and prepared some texts for class on Thursday.
11-12-2017 aka day 63/100
It started snowing yesterday and I went outside to take some pictures. I found two flowers that haven’t accepted that it’s winter yet.
My class was cancelled because of the snow, so I plan on finishing my assignment for Wednesday now. I’m not too happy it got cancelled because we were supposed to discuss or historiography and research question today, but it does safe me a trip of an hour. It also means I can pick up my brother from school so my grandmother won’t have to go outside in this weather.
I’ve started a “getting-up-tracker” in my bullet journal this week, because I find myself staying in bed for too long after I’ve woken up and it makes for a very lazy and unproductive start of the day. So, I hope it will stimulate me to actually get out of bed when I’m awake.
ways to study for exams that are actually productive
use actual note cards for vocab. yes, apps like quizlet are dandy when you’re on the go, but actually physically writing out each note card helps put the information into memory faster than typing them.
visual learner? make charts and diagrams. they don’t have to be pretty. the lines don’t have to be perfectly straight. it doesn’t have to be photogenic. but if it helps you learn, do it.
after you take notes (in class or at home/from your text book), write down possible quiz questions about the material on the next page while it’s still fresh in your mind. later on when you’re studying for the test, use these questions to gauge what specifics out of that chapter you need to work on the most.
start sooner rather than later. i know, you’ve heard this a million times from every teacher ever. but it’s legit. especially as you get into harder level classes and college courses because there is literally so much material that the tests cover that you simply can not accurately learn all of it over night. instead, start about 10 days in advance (but of coarse, the sooner the better).
studying doesn’t have to be a big giant study session that takes hours. if you start far enough in advance, study sessions can be around an hour, hell even 45 minutes is a good. if you go too long in one study session your brain will be fried and studying will be pointless because your brain won’t be processing any of it. that’s why it’s important to take breaks and not just cram for 5 hours the night before an exam.
actually study. hold yourself accountable and make your education a priority. if you have homework and studying to do, make it a priority over going partying or watching tv. there will be another party. you can dvr your show. you can’t take your test on a later day because you don’t feel ready. so be ready.
be careful with study groups. if you have a study group with all of your best friends, lets face it, you’re going to end up spending more time talking about harry styles and supernatural than actually studying. it’s better to have a study group with people who are your friends, but not best friends. and it’s better to keep it between 5-7 people so that everyone can be involved.
if the material is just super confusing and you can’t seem to understand it no matter how hard you study, it’s not you. it’s the way you were taught it. each teacher teaches a bit differently, and maybe their style of teaching just isn’t for you. if this happens, find a way that explains it the best for you. for example, if chemistry is just super confusing for you, try watching the Crash Course chemistry videos on youtube or have a friend explain it to you. this will give you a completely different perspective on the material and will help you understand it better.
at the end of the day, remember that everything will be okay. studying can be stressful, especially if it’s in a class that you struggle in. but i promise you that you are not the only one who struggles sometimes in school, it’s a part of being human. as long as you actually put in an effort and try your best, be proud of yourself. take a deep breath. and remember: you got this.

The cutest little vegetarian café that could 💚 And they do free coffee refills too! I’m in love.
I have my biodiversity & adaptation final in a few hours. I think I understand the material really well but I’m still nervous because this class is super important to me! I really loved this course material and I think it’s what I want to study for the rest of my undergrad. If I do well on this exam I’ll probably pull out an A overall, which would be truly amazing (especially given my score on the first midterm).
( 1 1 . 1 1 . 1 7 ) yesterday was nice: breakfast at a café with my favourite childhood book, then a study session at the library interspersed with reading a book on medicinal plants i found there 🌿
