Slightly Below Avg. Study Pics

A place for me to feel better about studying all of the time. 23 yr old senior nursing student in Portland.

Quality always beats quantity, so study a little every day rather than cram everything in last minute📚.

First 2 weeks of school are almost over and I’m feeling quite overwhelmed. I’m now renting a room in a house which is lovely, but it’s also another change and that comes with it’s own challenges. Trying to get back on my note taking grind because I find writing out concepts helps me process things immensely. Good luck study buddies!

Happy National Bird Day!

Today, January 5th is National Bird Day in the United States. Don't forget to give your feathered friends, inside and outside, an extra treat to celebrate the occasion!

In addition, here are some great foundations to support!

The Pittsburgh National Aviary

World Parrot Trust

Braddock Bay Raptor Research

Ventana Wildlife Society

East Ridge Wildlife Rehabilitation

American Bird Conservancy

Feel free to add more as this crosses your dash! Birds are an incredibly important part of the ecosystem and many species have had their numbers damaged by illegal imports and the pet trade. Keeping foundations like these supported and keeping in the know of what's going on in the world of conservation and aviculture is key.

Guys. I bought this table top from Ikea yesterday. Some of u would know I had a wood color before. Now it’s white and MUCH bigger and I love it. My apartment doesn’t get much light in the winter and I think it makes my space more bright and I’m obsessed. I know it’s a little thing but I love it and I’m so happy! I wanna study 24/7 now😌

Thinking about themes for the coming year - a better concept than resolutions. The idea is that a theme guides all your actions, and all movement in that direction is celebrated. For example, if you decide that 2023 is “year of fitness”, but then you get an injury halfway through the year and have to rest, well you can focus on physio and healing, without having “failed”. This video introduces and explains the topic.

2022 was the “year of yes” for me, as I realised I was saying no to opportunities and events out of fear and sometimes just laziness. And it’s been an amazing year: I starred in a professional film for my university, I’ve become closer to my friends and have made more, I’ve made a name for myself at my uni (and been linked to the vice chancellor!), I’ve spent more time with my siblings, etc. I’ve also said yes to the smaller things, like agreeing to play football with my younger brother, or volunteering with my mum, things I would have said no out of habit and laziness, and all occasions have been great. But the thing I’m proudest of is how I’ve overcome the fear of new, unknown situations that multiple years of bullying installed deep down in me. (If anyone reading this identifies with that - you will get over it. It may take time, but you will make it)

I’m not quite sure what my theme for 2023 will be. I want to continue the reaching out and seizing opportunities, the many dance classes and gym sessions (I’m so happy with the progress I’ve made), continue with the good sleep & work schedule. I would like to decrease my phone time, eat more mindfully, be both kind and assertive. I’ve got a whole notes page on my phone with snippets and trails of thoughts about this, but need to spend a couple of hours going though and reflecting. Will update when I figure it out - and if anyone have any thoughts / ideas please do share!

Love this! If I can also add, this video here made me really emotional. She talks a lot about a very healthy view on food and working out, and on therapy and mental health. Gonna have to come back to this vid throughout the oncoming year.

I'm still so stumped at how our university thought it fit to schedule our 3rd sem exams around Christmas. Even worse? It's gonna end on 31st Dec at 5:30 pm. This is just my desperate attempt to prevent myself from going into an emotional breakdown by romanticising studying. The most productive thing that came out of this is I crocheted ornaments for my Christmas bunting.

I just hope everyone else is enjoying the holidays.

Found a cute little cafe that had really fresh ginger tea! Honey cake as well. Anyway, I finished my finals yesterday and passed my mental health nursing Kaplan! Afterwards, my friends and I had a kind of long text going about how finding our worth from good grades is a dangerous and ultimately damaging practice. Hope everyone has a restful winter break! (:
