it’s not as pretty and put together as dark academia
you’re wearing two cardigans, mismatched socks and some jeans that are bordering on “just about clean enough”. nothing will stand between you and your next cup of tea/coffee/hot chocolate and adding extra sugar.
emptying your pockets at the end of the day and coming to a total of four pens, a pocket notebook, two receipts, and a highlighter.
your hair keeps falling in your face. you use a rubber band to tie it back. your fringe falls in your face. a paperclip is used to keep it back for the next ten minutes. you probably need a haircut.
the floor is the best place to study. there are so many books and pages of notes scattered around that the carpet can’t be seen anymore.
a rush before you leave class. your ID? got it. keys? got them. wait, where did your ID go again..? did you put your phone in your backpack or in any of the nine pockets on your person.
trash is piled up neatly in the corner, ready to be put into a rubbish bag and taken out. you’ll do it tomorrow, you say. you said the exact same thing last week.
you’re typing and you miss a letter. you go back to fix it. you miss a different letter. you go back to fix it. somehow you have fewer letters than you started with. you take it as a sign to take a break.
it’s time for a quick break. half an hour later you realise that you still haven’t gone back to work. Whoops.
you’ve replied to an email. while doing so, three more emails needing a reply came in. you put them off til tomorrow
yes you have a calendar to keep track of classes/meetings. you also have a weekly planner and a daily to-do list. you forget to fill any of these out
your last pair of trousers got a hole in and you don’t have time to go trouser-shopping, so it’s leggings/shorts/skirts for the rest of term, gender presentation be damned
it’s the first week of term. you look away for five minutes. it’s the sixth week of term

Stop regretting the past. Stop dwelling on all of the chances you wish you took and the moments when wish you kept quiet. All of the first kisses you were too afraid to lean into, all of the 5 seconds of no-fear that you never had. For whatever reason, you made the choices you made and they’ve shaped you into who you are today. You did what you thought was right. You did what you had to do to make it to where you are today. Don’t look back in sorrow. Do not lament. Simply let it be and look forward into your infinite future. You are doing so great.
How to Handle Having TOO MUCH To Do
So let’s say you’re in the same boat I am (this is a running theme, have you noticed?) and you’ve just got, like, SO MUCH STUFF that HAS to get done YESTERDAY or you will DIE (or fail/get fired/mope). Everything needs to be done yesterday, you’re sick, and for whatever reason you are focusing on the least important stuff first. What to do!
Take a deep breath, because this is a boot camp in prioritization.
Make a 3 by 4 grid. Make it pretty big. The line above your top row goes like this: Due YESTERDAY - due TOMORROW - due LATER. Along the side, write: Takes 5 min - Takes 30 min - Takes hours - Takes DAYS.
Divide ALL your tasks into one of these squares, based on how much work you still have to do. A thank you note for a present you received two weeks ago? That takes 5 minutes and was due YESTERDAY. Put it in that square. A five page paper that’s due tomorrow? That takes an hour/hours, place it appropriately. Tomorrow’s speech you just need to rehearse? Half an hour, due TOMORROW. Do the same for ALL of your tasks
Your priority goes like this:
5 minutes due YESTERDAY
5 minutes due TOMORROW
Half-hour due YESTERDAY
Half-hour due TOMORROW
Hours due YESTERDAY
Hours due TOMORROW
5 minutes due LATER
Half-hour due LATER
Hours due LATER
DAYS due YESTERDAY
DAYS due TOMORROW
DAYS due LATER
At this point you just go down the list in each section. If something feels especially urgent, for whatever reason - a certain professor is hounding you, you’re especially worried about that speech, whatever - you can bump that up to the top of the entire list. However, going through the list like this is what I find most efficient.
Some people do like to save the 5 minute tasks for kind of a break between longer-running tasks. If that’s what you want to try, go for it! You’re the one studying here.
So that’s how to prioritize. Now, how to actually do shit? That’s where the 20/10 method comes in. It’s simple: do stuff like a stuff-doing FIEND for 20 minutes, then take a ten minute break and do whatever you want. Repeat ad infinitum. It’s how I’ve gotten through my to do list, concussed and everything.
You’ve got this. Get a drink and start - we can do our stuff together!
WOAH THIS SOUNDS HELPFUL. I’M GOING TO TRY THIS IMMEDIATELY. Also, I made a chart for myself, but if anyone else wants it for reference (or if this is wrong and I misread you can tell me) here it is:
Autumn Semester - Week 5, Thursday
The preacher of eating properly has been caught at her own game. My lunch consisted of some almonds at noon, and a piece of bread with cheese at 2.30, so I guess it’s snack time (yoghurt, nut muesli, spelt, and flaxseed). Anyways, here are my October spreads. The last two will need to be updated, obviously!
october 2, 2017 - neutral
happy october! here’s my spread for this week, which will look a little fuller later on. i went with a soft grey and white theme, featuring art by amemgmg and my white gel pen!

Hello there,
I haven’t been posting original study content (apart from the 30-day challenge) for a few weeks already. I still have about two weeks before school starts again, and I can’t wait. You can find me on Instagram, I’m mostly there in the summer. I share my readings in actual posts (like these six above), and also recipes in my instastory whenever I try something new – which is every few day, lbr.
Anyways, good luck to you all who are already back to school.
Lots of love,
Sam/lbriscoe xxx
