Went to this huge library in Seoul, I would like to live here.
Omg this is gorgeous.. i literally got goose bumps šš
you know whatās more freeing than killing yourself? running away to a small town and getting a job as a waitress. buying a cheap car and sticking a bed in the back and driving southwest. adopting a cat. learning a new instrument. moving apartments. visiting a friend in another city. chopping all your hair off.
you can kill your current life without dying. you can kill this version of you and make a new one.
maybe Iām just a bipolar sucker for rebirth but sometimes that thought is all that keeps me alive
My study
Kindness is often mistaken for softness and let me tell you, friendsā¦.that is a mistake you donāt want to make.Ā
Kind people are not born that way, they do not stumble into it, kind people are forged in fire and darkness and imploding starsā¦they have steel cores. Throw a punch and youāre going to break your hand.Ā
Kind people are kind because they know firsthand that life isnāt.
study hacks for college/uni
So youāre struggling to study efficiently away from home? Finding yourself getting distracted easily? Having difficulty creating a study schedule in this new environment? I knowĀ finals season is coming soon for university students, so I thought Iād share my personal study hacks that helped me during college!Ā
Find the least popular library: while the fancy main libraries have great appeal, the truth is sometimes you really only need a desk, a comfy chair, an outlet, and some peace and quiet
Go higher up for quieter floors: usually the higher you go, the quieter and more serious the floor
Always pack the essentials: during finals week, finding a good study spot is a commodity, so make sure you can stay as long as humanly possible and bring supplies: laptop, chargers (phone and laptop), water bottle, snacks, layers (including a huge comfy sweater that can double as a pillow), headphones, notes, pens and highlighters, and blank paper
Donāt be afraid of caffeine pills: caffeine pills can sound scary, but that venti coffee at Starbucks also has a shit ton of caffeine. Opt to finding caffeine pills that are each 100 mg (the amount in 1 cup of coffee), and save ~$50-100 on buying coffee all the time
Find (only) 1-2 good friends and make a regular study group: even if you guys donāt share classes, itās nice to have people who are reliable, quiet, and fun to be around when studying. Also, libraries allow small groups to rent private study rooms which are clutch af
Use the Pomodoro method with a timer or app:Ā this is wonderful for people who have difficulty focusing.Ā Set an alarm for 25 minutes, and block all forms of electronic distraction from that time. The idea is to have 25 minutes of pure work with a 5 minute break to do whatever you want afterwards, and this helps train you to maximize your ability to focus and minimize brain fatigue
Empty classrooms and lecture halls on weekends = substitute library: on the weekends, college campuses are super dead. Iāve found that lecture halls and classrooms are deserted (and usually unlocked) during these times, which make for great quiet places to study
Listen to music WITHOUT lyrics while you study: youāll be less likely to be sucked in to the music and distracted
Wear pajama or workout clothes:Ā just trust me on this one
Have a few achievable goals for the day and know when toĀ stop: college burnout is real, so remember that college is a marathon, not a race
āThatās the problem with putting others first; youāve taught them you come second.ā
ā
read that, again.Ā
things I need to beat into my brain
(via nicotinas)
remember the last time you thought to yourself, this is the best day of my life? you will have days like that again. days where youāre calm and radiating light, where your heart is full of love, where you feel like you will be just fine, despite everything you had to go through. on days like that youāll know the truth, not the lies that your negative emotions tell you. I hope you have a day like that soon.
Let me tell you about my panda mini-washer
As an apartment dweller, this is a game changer. My current apartment doesnāt have a laundry facility and the closest Laundromat about a 30 min bus ride which is just not practical. The mini-washer is a life saver
The panda mini washer hooks up to the sink, is incredibly lightweight (about 28 pounds, so light even I can lift it) and easy to use.Ā
It has a surprisingly large capacity. The basket from the first picture represents about one and a half loads. The jeans took up a whole load while the rest filled the bin only half way.Ā
Hereās the inside. The left is the washer the right is the spin dryer. Yes, it even drys.
Basically you shove your cloths into the washer, fill it up with water and let it go. I use my shower head to fill it up so it goes faster, the sink hook up took about five minutes to fill the whole tub, with the shower head is is down to a minute an a half. I do it in three wash cycles, a five minute rinse with baking soda, a five minute wash with soap and a three minute rinse with water. You have to drain and refill between each cycle so itās a little more labor intensive than a traditional washer.Ā
Thatās the spin dryer. Itās about half the capacity of the washer so one wash takes about two loads to dry. The spinner is much more effective than I was expecting. A three minute spin gets my cloths about 90% dry. I hang them up to air dry for that last 10%.Ā
The machine cost me about 150$. When you factor in two dollars for the bus, five for the machines (per week), the mini-washer pays for its self after only about six months worth of laundry.Ā
Iām not great at expressing emotion, but Iām hoping you can tell how excited I am. Ā Let me just say that the panda mini-washer is great and I highly recommend it to anyone currently using a Laundromat. Ā
Read this and immediately bought it on Amazon for $180. I spend $15 a week to have my laundry done so this pays for itself in 3 months for me. THANK YOU JESUS.
@ all my nyc pendejas
Oh by the way, they have table top dishwashers that are pretty much the same thing:
This is one of the biggest technological breakthroughs for the everyday homeowner in the current decade: the realization that refrigerators arenāt the only things that can be miniaturized for better affordability and minimal space requirements.
Can you IMAGINE how this is going to change the lives of college students and apartment-dwellers? Or anyone with a lower income who canāt afford a place with āluxuryā appliances like dishwashers and laundry machines?
Thereās an even cheaper option called the Wonder Wash where you tumble the thing yourself and youāll have to line-dry the clothes, but it apparently works very well.
As an apartment dweller, I want to spread this.
Save a life

How I Survived 4 Exams in 5 Days... And How You Can Too
Iām not quite free from exams, but as a short procrastination technique/brain break I thought Iād share how I managed to not cry at all while also preparing for and sitting 4 exams over the span of 5 days (becauseā¦ vet school).
1) Preparation is keyĀ - The very first thing I do before any exam period is sit down and make a timetable and a master list. Your timetable should have all the days from the day you are making the timetable on through to the last exam you have mapped out. I divide each day into morning and afternoon slots (although because I tend to study from 8.30am - 9.30pm I donāt stick to the strict definitions ofĀ āmorningā when Iām actually working, more on that later). Then, do your master list. Take each paper and write down every topic you have to cover before the exam (I split mine by lecture, but depending on what youāre studying, you may prefer to do this as chapters or modules etc etc). By looking at how many topics I have to cover and how many days I have before a particular exam, I divide up the half-days proprotionally so that in theory I can get everything done.
2) Sleep - The best step, right? Sleep is so important if you want to retain information and not be a sobbing mess at the end of the exam period. I know that I need 8hrs to work effectively, so I have a set time that I need to be in bed and an alarm that goes at the same time every day that leaves roughly 8.5 hrs (the extra 30 mins takes into account getting to sleep, disruptions, etc.). Work out how much time you need, and make sure you get it! And not the bare minimum either, Iām talking proper refreshing, ready to go when you wake up, sleep. Treat yourself!
3) Work out how much you can do in a day, and do it - It sounds simple, but it isnāt always. The first couple of days of study break Iām always finding my feet, working out what I can actually do with a whole day to just study. Push yourself in these early days to see what you can get done, while still taking breaks to eat, relax, and procrastinate just a little. I usually have one day where I definitely donāt get enough day, then a day where I try and compensate and push myself too far, and then for the rest of the exam period I manage to settle into a nice medium of the two. Work that out, schedule it, then adjust your overall timetable if you need to.
4) Plan what youāll do each day in advanceĀ - I always feel so much more productive if I can wake up, have breakfast, and then just kick into it, without having to think about what needs to be done. I finish every day by getting out my planner and setting myself tasks for the next day. It helps me sleep better, and it helps me work better. This way you also have goals for the day, so you know exactly what youāre expecting of yourself for the whole day.
5) Believe in yourself - So cheesy, I know, but necessary. I am incredibly good at doubting myself and despairing, so I have to have little mantras prepared for when it feels really hard and I canāt get everything that I need to done or something takes longer than I thought it would. Pick something that works for you, but have something to tell yourself when it gets hard.Ā
6) Donāt use a screen as a break - TV and YouTube videos are not good for breaks. I donāt know about you, but if thatās what Iām using as a break my mind is usually wandering back to what I was working on, and then Iām not actually resting my brain. Rest is so important, but blank staring just doesnāt work! Try to do something that engages you so your mind is actually diverted. I crack out some of my favourite books at exam time because theyāre excellent for taking a break. I also use my break time to listen to podcasts, fold laundry, go for a walk (see my Exercise and Study post) craft, play with my dog, etc etc. Get out of your study space, stop looking at your laptop, and do something you genuinely enjoy that you canāt think about studying while doing. Itās so important! Hannah Witton (a YouTuber I love, check her out) says she would learn something new during exam periods as a way of exercising her mind in her break times. Thatās such a great idea, Iāve been giving it a go myself learning to embroider, and it really works!
7) Celebrate your little winsĀ - You are allowed to be excited about getting a topic done in less time than you thought it would take - it feels awesome when youāre really productive! Allow yourself to stew in the happy a little and take those moments to take a break, do something fun, get a snack etc. Adding something extra fun to the pleasure of being productive reinforces it - you can train yourself to do what you need to get done, and you really should.
8) Last, but not least: never underestimate the power of dancing it outĀ - I am a huge Greyās Anatomy fan, and if thereās one thing Meredith has taught me itās that dancing solves so many things. I have a ritual where when I get home from an exam, I dance it out. I shut the door to my room, find a song I love to dance around to, and just let myself be an idiot for the next 4ish mins. Itās so good, I feel like I can get back into study so much faster when I do it. Pick an upbeat, fun song that you can really get into, and just let loose. Youāll feel so much better, and it can even make an exam that didnāt go that well feel a lot better. At the moment Iām usingĀ āNervousā by Shawn Mendes,Ā āFeel it Stillā by Portugal the Man, āFootlooseā by Kenny Loggins, andĀ āHigh Hopesā by Panic! at the Disco, but it can really be anything that youāre feeling at the time.
TL;DR: Exams are hard, but if you prepare, sleep, work hard, and dance like an idiot you can do it! Trust me, I just did.
just a reminder:
a black girl character growing her hair out long breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character having short hair
a black girl character getting to be soft and fragile breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character being strong all the time
a black girl character being protected and comforted by others breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character having no one to look out for her but herself
a black girl character being considered pretty or cute by other characters breaks more stereotypes than a black girl character being considered unattractive
not everything that is empowering for white girls is empowering for black girls
the sexism we face overlaps, but it is not the same

Dear everyone who is currently working on a Thing, whatever that Thing may be,
Good luck with the Thing. You can do the Thing. You will do the Thing. You just have to do the Thing.
Best wishes,
Someone who is also doing a Thing

reblogging for yall bc the shit worked for me lol
Karma will pop me if I donāt
When a character doesnāt realize theyāve been, like, shot or whatever and they hand brushes against their side and comes away wet with blood, and theyāre just staring at it like wtf is this and then their knees just totally give out on them and they sink down, maybe gasping a little as the reality finally hits them. Thatās good stuff.
I see that, and raise you a character who knows theyāve been shot, but waits until the rest of their crew is out of sight to put their hand against the slowly spreading stain of blood on their shirt, then trying to steady their breathing so they can follow without letting on how injured they are.
Okay but like the character who doesnāt realize theyāve been hurt trying to see if everyone else is okay only to slowly realize that everyone is looking at them with mounting horror. Then they touch their side to find itās wet and oh no
all 3 of you are evil but i admire, respect, and fear you
Some more anatomy.. hereās how some notes and my Grayās anatomy book look like.. and i honestly just love the pilot frixion soft highlighters!!!! I really like the fact that you can erase them and the shades are beautiful too (i already ordered one more set cause iāll finish these soon š) ALSO I FINALLY GOT MYSELF A RAVENCLAW TSHIRT!!!!! LOOK HOW NICE THAT IS!!! (and yes, i happened to match my nails colour to the tshirt and the jeans šš) And i also got my embriology practical exam result and i got like a 70% which is not bad considering how badly i messed up because i didnāt pay attention to what i was supposed to doā¦ā¦.
