Dark academia tag yourself: classical music edition

Chopin: Nocturne No.20 in C Sharp Minor & Beethoven: Fur Elise

Dark lipstick, black turtlenecks, and plaid skirts. Reciting Latin phrases that no-one else understands. Fountain pens. Candlelight. Victorian literature.

Handel: Sarabande  & Prokofiev: Dance of the Knights

Plague-core. Love letters hidden behind castle stones. Shakespeare. Folklore and legends, tales of tragic kings. Winter dusks. 

Tchaikovsky: Valse Sentimentale & Mozart: Lacrimosa

Poetry about unrequited love. Early-Modern history. Goodbye letters.Quiet on the outside, but filled with so much passion it could swallow you whole.

Bizet: Habanera, & Wagner: Das Rheingold, Entry of the Gods into Valhalla

Long tweed coats checked blazers. Debating your classmates, and, sometimes, your professors.Baroque architecture and academic classicism. 

Shostakovich: Waltz no. 2 & Smetana: Vltava (the Moldau)

Secrets between friends. Knowing looks. Eloquent writing. Breaking into the university after dark, and dancing between aisles in the empty library. Getting tipsy and talking about everything. Complex theories. Whispers.

Brahms: Hungarian Dance No.5 & Grieg: In the Hall of the Mountain King

A thousand unfinished research projects. Books covering every surface, page clippings and various ephemera on the walls. Dark autumn days, rushing across campus with a coffee in hand, caught up in your thoughts.

Morricone: Gabriel’s Oboe & Debussy: Clair de Lune

Light academia. Composing letters in the gentle morning light. Staring at Renaissance murals, filled with wonder. Reading a book on a picnic blanket in the park. Spilling your deepest your secrets to the bird at your windowsill. 

Vivaldi: Winter & Tchaikovsky: Waltz of the flowers

Cable-knit jumpers and bed-head. Intense seizes of passion that have you writing frantically in your notebooks. Excited ramblings about books. Classical philosophy. Fat journals filled with ideas. Sleep deprived but giddy.

Things I Do At The Start Of Every Month

• Upload and delete photos from my phone. Google Photos has become my best friend, so once a month I make sure to upload all my recent photos to it, and then delete (most of) them from my phone to free up space.  •Figure out monthly finances and budget. I try to determine what the month should like for me money wise. Where do I have money coming in? Where is money most likely going to go? What’s the max I want to spend in each area? Sometimes it really helps, other times it doesn’t.   •Review + rearrange calender. I pull up Google Calendar, my dry erase board and planner and make sure everything is the same in each. I add events, rearrange them, and delete others.  •Make plans w/ friends and family. This isn’t something I do all the time, but if I really want to go out to eat or do something special with my mum or a sibling I’ll let them know and we’ll try to set a date to do so.  •Schedule appointments. More like make a list of things I need to schedule in the upcoming days/week. •Make/Buy birthday/holiday cards. I usually handmake my cards so having them premade is less stressful than waiting the day before (or day of) to try and draw out something spectacular.  •Plan off/zero/me days. It doesn’t matter what you call it. Sometimes you just need to make sure you have a day or two set to just focus on you. •Wash and clean car. I don’t own a car but I try to make sure the one I primarily ride in is fairly clean inside in general.   •Change bedding. Actually, I do this more often now. I change my bedding twice a month and wash my pillowcases once a week.  •Essentials shopping trip. If I’m in need of a face cleanser, lotion, toothpaste, I plan to go get it.  •Deep clean my bedroom/Reorganise my spaces. That’s the only area I really have to clean. I’ll sweep/mop the floor. Dust everything down. Clean my mirrors. Reorganise my shelves, dresser top, and closet. •Write down broad goals and to-dos. Basically, a rough idea of what I hope to accomplish and things that have to get done over the next few weeks. •Wash makeup brushes/give my makeup a good wipe down. Have no fear, I wash my makeup brushes at least once a week and spray them down with my daily brush cleaner, but sometimes I get lazy and leave the ones I don’t use that often dirty. Therefore, I’ll go ahead and wash them and really clean off/disinfect my palettes, lipglosses, foundation etc  •Pick two books to read this month. This is just from one of my yearly goals to read a new book every two months. I’ve been trying to choose one on my reading list and a ‘self-help’ type book.

types of study breaks for every situation

if you realize you’ve been studying for hours: grab a snack to refuel your body and watch a sitcom to refuel your brain. then back to the books.

if you’re feeling stressed out: take some deep breaths, text your friends, maybe stare at a wall for a few minutes. gather yourself.

if you can’t seem to focus: get moving and get outside. take out the garbage, check your mail box, maybe walk your dog. just get moving and get fresh air. it’ll help bring you back.

if there’s something else going on in your life and you can’t get it off your mind: write down what’s going through your head, sort of like a diary entry. it’ll help you work things out.

if you’re just mentally and physically exhausted: set a timer for 25-30 minutes and take a nap. any longer and you’ll hit REM and you’ll wake up feeling just as tired. once you wake up, get some caffeine in you.

if the material is boring as hell: find another way to study. see if there’s a crash course video online about it or draw out what you’re trying to learn in diagrams and pictures to make it fun.

if people around you won’t shut up: listen to some music. soundtrack and classical music is always good because they won’t absorb you as much as music with lyrics. white noise (like ocean waves, rain sounds, etc.) also works.

if you only half understand a concept: call/message a friend who’s not in the class and try to teach the material to them. this will help you mentally work through the material and will help you remember it as well.

reminder: you can start over at anytime. your day is not ruined. your world is not over. take a deep breath. start over.

greetings!

[esperides]

tag your morning vibe

mornings things;

rosy sunlight: waking up unexpectedly early, enjoying the peaceful silent, laying in bed and just thinking, messy buns, the calm before the storm, deciphering your dreams, peach tones

hot coffee: productivity, writing in a journal or diary, planning out your day, a high ponytail, buying breakfast, newspapers, the smell of fresh coffee beans

cereal bowl: having something sweet for breakfast, walking your dog, morning shower, bubbly laughter, hopefulness, counting down to the weekend

alarm clock: waking up late, no makeup, coffee to wake you up, cold feet, falling back asleep when there’s a moment, cloudy skies, heavy eyelids

breakfast pastry: the bustling of a large family, staying in your pyjamas, morning radio, grocery shopping, waiting for the post, no responsibilities
