A good motivation to read during the study period is to take the book from the library and read it until the deadline when you have to bring it back to the library. Only 120 pages to go and the library is open until 6 p.m. My chocolate snack is already eaten (hehe), time to get my after-breakfast tea and enjoy the reading. Some people are sad when the book is over, but I like to read story till the end 😊

Waiting for @piekaslp. Always this “give me just another 30 minutes” 😧

Ok... Sometimes I just feel like if my day started bad it can get only worse 😆 after taking wrong tram I just wanted to go home, but I forced myself to go the whole way back and take the right one. When I arrived to University I was struggling to go inside as I was too late (bad habit associated with another lecture and definitely with the class back in my school) but I did it. I convinced myself to open the door.. And saw the empty room 🙄 but it didn't end like this. As dumb as I am, I thought I just used the opportunity to ask the lab worker about the lecture, who was just about crossing my strolling-around-faculty-way.. And he had no idea. But he dragged me to the faculty to ask the prof about it, and I bumped into head prof of faculty.. And he had no idea, but his postgrad went with me to show where the office of my prof is... And of caurse my prof has been there and said that it was the last lecture last week.. Lucky me, I can sit 1h outside and enjoy the weather. I also took my notes to study with me, but I forgot my script at home and I can't learn when one thing's missing (seems to be some kind of mental issue to me) Do you guys have also days like these or os it only me? 😆🙈 . . . . . . . . . #vienna #biologystudy #lecturehall #nolecture #bio #biology #wishitneverhappened #wednsdayisthenewmonday #studyabroad #study #studygram #storyofmylife #lifehasstrangehumor (hier: Pharmaziezentrum, UZA2)

And my boyfriend doubted that I will use this paperweight. Of course I need it! And of course I use it! Here is the proof 😋

Nooooo April, are you kidding me? Two very best sunny weeks and now, just after I finished my chemistry exam, the sky turns grey and it starts to rain 😒

She makes me feel observed in some kind 😂

Just some studying between lectures 😊

Hi! I want to make a studyblr, but I don't think I have time for fancy notes and calligraphy stuff because that takes away time from actual studying. Can I still join this community?

Yes, yes, yes! In my eyes, my notes are just neat and colourful :-) They’re not fancy with calligraphy or all of that. I’m not sure if people would agree since definitions differ, but to me, they are just tidy with some colour that helps me break up and memorise the information. I can’t do calligraphy/brush lettering like some of the amazing artists in this community. For me, I don’t feel 1) that it would help my studying personally, 2) that I have time to practice enough to actually improve, 3) I don’t have the need or money to pay for specific pens to do so. This community is more about making what works for you work better. I would hope it doesn’t suggest using calligraphy or all the additional bits are the only ways you can succeed as a studyblr or as a student. I am sure a lot of people are like you and me! Please don’t let that kind of thing stop you! x

I would like to add that you also don’t need a bullet journal to join studyblr. I’d rather use a planner where I can simply fill in all my assignments, and I use my phone calendar to write down appointments, due dates, exams, etc. I remember when I joined studyblr, I would see all these amazing bullet journals and all the very popular blogs had them. I tried making my own, but I have zero artistic talent even with cursive, so it ended up being a disaster. I chose to stick with what worked for ME. I personally don’t have the time, patience, or artistic talent to create an entire bullet journal just to write down all my daily tasks. I have an easy to access calendar on my phone and a planner instead. Please don’t feel pressured to fit a specific “type” of studyblr. I sure don’t! Have a studyblr that’s unique to you and your studies! That’s the best advice I can give. ☺️

I totally agree with that!^^ Calligraphy, illustrating, bullet journal or scrapbooking - all these features are just nice hobbies helping some of students to manage their studies. We all are different and have our individual learning methods - and everybody is always welcome^^

Can't believe it's already middle of March! Austrian summer semester started already 2 weeks ago! 🙈

[oh-my-genetics]

My weekly spread so far - in spite of catching cold I still enjoy the spring weather outside ^^

[oh-my-genetics]

Memories! As my Organic Chemistry lab is finally over (Thanks God, I couldn’t stay any week longer there =D ) I grabbed my old chemistry lab journal to look up what I did before and found a lot of messy notes and beloved gelelectrophoresis pictures there! ^^ Btw this was just normal cheap notebook and I think its quality is comparebale with nowadays notebooks up from 10€ and more

My last week has been really crazy, but I'm afraid this week is going to be even harder! I really admire all the people who study chemistry, I never could do this 😃

Calling all STUDYBLRS!

Please reblog if you’re a studyblr! Especially if you’re a new or beginning one. I’d love to do a huge follow spree and garner as much support for the community as I can. :)

Facultyof Organic Chemistry. Looks like it will be my home for next three weeks. Or at least it feels like it ;)

Omg It’s already February, time is passing by so fast… I know I shouldn’t play with #watercolors in #leuchtturm1917 but I used aquarell pencils and it turned out quiet well 😊 these wolves are my version of amazing work of Therese Larsson found on pinterest, I guess I just needed to draw something to relax after the exam 😊

[oh-my-genetics]

2 things I couldn't do if I would study in the library - use markers in the book and stay there till night 😁 also when I go to library I feel like I need to be prepared for everything so I take a bunch of stuff with me and still forget something important.. wish you all many productive hours studying for exams 😉❤
