I think I'm revamping this blog 👁️👁️ I'm now a first year design student and I want to record the things that I'm doing and the things I'm struggling with.

[pangur-and-grim]

[pangur-and-grim]

I paid too much attention to them and got eaten by the infernal worm. btw

BEFORE YOU CLICK A LINK!

Reblog this post :) Especially if you’re on mobile, you’ll lose the post if you click the link without thinking. Take a note from your elders before you

[porcupine-girl]

Interesting note: It definitely uses whoever you're following now, not at that date. Even the 2020 one includes a lot of people I was absolutely not following yet in Feb 2020, which is actually kind of cool, I can see what they were reblogging from this fandom before I got into it.

Skip Google for Research

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

www.refseek.com - Academic Resource Search. More than a billion sources: encyclopedia, monographies, magazines.

www.worldcat.org - a search for the contents of 20 thousand worldwide libraries. Find out where lies the nearest rare book you need.

https://link.springer.com - access to more than 10 million scientific documents: books, articles, research protocols.

www.bioline.org.br is a library of scientific bioscience journals published in developing countries.

http://repec.org - volunteers from 102 countries have collected almost 4 million publications on economics and related science.

www.science.gov is an American state search engine on 2200+ scientific sites. More than 200 million articles are indexed.

www.pdfdrive.com is the largest website for free download of books in PDF format. Claiming over 225 million names.

www.base-search.net is one of the most powerful researches on academic studies texts. More than 100 million scientific documents, 70% of them are free

one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become

I decided to take up Chinese again. I used to take classes when I was in high school but I had to stop when I started acting school. But I've been missing it and figured now is as good a time as any. Unfortunately, I've forgotten the majority of what I had learned but I do remember a couple of things.

📖 academic/learning 📖

- Spanish (reading Las brujas del ayer y del mañana and it's so much fun) (2h)

- Chinese (57min)

🌻 self-care 🌻

- water (>2.5lt)

- tattoo aftercare

Technically all you have to do to learn a language is drill flash cards and watch tv but the problem is the amount of flash cards and tv and what they don’t tell you is that your brain will protest the entire time

[what-even-is-thiss]

If you already watch tv in your target language constantly this will be easier for you. Just start doing flash cards instead of candy crush, turn off the English subtitles, and fight through the headaches. But I wanna keep watching stuff in English is my problem. All my favorite stuff is in English :(

[what-even-is-thiss]

Btw if you were looking for a low effort but incredibly time consuming way to learn a language, that’s the whole thing. Download Anki, put together some vocab lists, and switch the language to Italian on Netflix. You won’t understand what’s going on at first but that’s also what babies go through and the advantage you have over babies is the flash cards. Have fun.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Stage? Like section you get to later? No, my friend. With this method, that’s the whole thing. Tv and flash cards from day one. Piece grammar together in your head with your subconscious synapse firing like the baby.

[what-even-is-thiss]

You need to pursue this method with the dedication and fanaticism of a 17 year old weeb who wears cat ears to school.

[what-even-is-thiss]

btw if you are a teenage weeb who wears cat ears to school and has always wanted to learn Japanese, you know what you must do now. The Naruto English subtitles have been holding you back for too long, kid.

How long are you planning on doing the Horrible Doodles?

until these 5x7 cards run out!

52 cards have sold since Friday, & there’s 57 left to go. (for those wondering wtf we’re talking about, the description’s up here)

[pangur-and-grim]

48 left now ✌️I do heavily enjoy drawing Cat Couples

[pangur-and-grim]

AHHh, I am weak? 

I caved & bought 100 more cards. they’re thicker & better-quality (ivory vellum)

I’ve also bought protective slips, to prevent damage while mailing

AND I got…this…….creature? if desired, she’ll contribute a pawprint 🐾

[pangur-and-grim]

IMPORTANT UPDATE: I got a lovely new pen !!

I know these are Horrible Drawings™ but I’m so happy w the line quality this thing gives me!

i was going to say ‘i have no idea what to do with this information’ but then i realized its a handy guide to generate fake words that sound english

[holdup-andrememberthetime]

“What to do with this information”: kick ass at hangman

My 6th grader in French class after having learned the verb être and the regular verbs ending in -er: "So that's it, right? No other verbs to learn?"

est > pst makes u feel like a god, but pst > est is……. probably one of the most humbling of adjustments. :’) 1 hour late is an improvement on 2 hours late, right? :’)))))))

very excited to go home, make a nice dinner, and maybe rewatch goncharov (1973) if it’s back on streaming platforms these days

day 10 of my autumn studying challenge!:

•what is your favorite thing about your major? why?

being able to shape young minds. being able to help people learn english so that they can use the language and benefit from it in their own lives. being always in touch with the languages. idk man i just love the idea of being a student’s favorite teacher, you know? two weeks ago after the class i was walking to the bus stop and four of my students came to me, all smiley and they were like good evening teacher! see you! and i almost shed actual tears. it’s such an amazing feeling.

-> oh boi. i’ll have my first mid-term this tuesday. it’s the museum education class, it’s not that hard even if there are many things to keep in mind. i spent my day in my dorm room, reading ppts and taking notes.
