Quick reminder,

This quarantine isn’t a productivity competition.

You do not have to:

- lose weight

- work out every day and get a 16 pack of abs

- cure acne

- master a new skill

- read 17 books

- change yourself in anyway

By saying you’re going to use this time to “glow up” is implying that you’re not already shining but bb you sure are.

It is ok to not lose 15 pounds and don’t beat yourself up if you gain a lil bit either. It’s natural, you’re at home and walks to the kitchen are pretty common.

It’s ok not to work out every day and get absolutely shredded. Sure get your exercise but don’t beat yourself up over not doing an intensive 30 day butt and ab workout. Who the flip cares!

It’s fine not to master a new skill. Sure find something to keep you occupied but you don’t need to master a whole new skill just because. Arts and stuff takes years to master don’t feel bad because you can’t get there in a week.

You do not need to change yourself in anyway. This is quarantine, our main goal is to survive. Don’t beat yourself up if you’re not solving world hunger or turning yourself into a model and certainty don’t beat anyone else up if they’re not.

This is Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, you can’t achieve Self Actualisation if have not achieved your psychological needs and you can’t get psychological without basic needs.

Pretty much, make sure your wellbeing is in top knick before you try to accomplish every goal you’ve ever set or ever will set.

Keep safe and much love,

Methods of studying: a review!

There are several methods of studying that can be considered. As you go through high school, and later college, it becomes more and more important to study. Don’t be afraid to test any of these and find what works best for you!

Method 1: flashcards

Pros: This is probably the most common method of studying pretty much worldwide. You simply write definitions/concepts/etc on pieces of paper, with the name on one side, and the definition on the other. You can even do them digitally if you’d prefer (I will be making reviews in the future of these apps). I find them really easy and convenient, and just creating them helps me to remember certain topics. I used this method as a kid, and even now I use it quite often. 

Cons: For me this method is usually a hit or miss. Often times a lot of the ideas in my classes are connected, and so just studying definitions makes it difficult for me to understand the concepts as a whole. On the other hand, it is still a really useful technique if I’m struggling to remember specific definitions of words. It’s also a very helpful technique for my major especially (psychology) and I’m sure many other majors.

Method 2: diagrams

Pros: Diagrams can be extremely helpful depending on the subject. Even in psychology, diagrams are really useful for remembering experiments and different parts of the brain. You can lay everything out about a unit in just one picture, and I find them enjoyable to lay out. Not to mention they can come out looking very cool, unique and creative in my posts.

Cons: Unfortunately, I’m not so much of a picture learner, so diagrams don’t usually do much for me. I can remember them quite effectively, but it takes a long time. I also just find them difficult to explain out loud when describing it at times.

Method 3: practice tests

Pros: Probably the most similar to how you’d deal with the actual information! You can easily create these on websites like Quizlet, and they can be really helpful. I enjoy using these for the tests I take in my classes because often the professors will give ones they create for us.

Cons: Unless you have a way to create it, it can be tedious to make your own. You also don’t know what style the questions will be, exactly (if i had to play devil’s advocate…)

Method 4: outlining (personal favorite)

Pros: This method lays out all the important information that you need to know right in front of you. You can include as much as you need, typed or handwritten. I find that in creating the outline, I can better understand certain topics and thus remember them better.

Cons: Again, this method can be tedious as well, especially the way in which I do it (handwritten). It can also be hard to look back on when it’s complete, as some people need something more visual.

Of course, these methods are only some of which you can use, and everyone is different. What is your personal favorite method? Let me know if there’s one you’d like me to review!

Dealing with failure (essay edition):

Hey so recently I’ve not been doing too good in history and such and am starting to lose confidence in myself. I wanted to help people who feel the same way by showing them a way to improve and continue after failing with essays and such.

If you want I can post some pictures of my notes after doing the following steps and such :)

Here’s how I deal with a failed essay:

Allow yourself to get over the failure: take a few hours, a day, a weekend or however long you need. Just let yourself get over the mark.

Look at the teachers comments: This is very obvious but make sure to go through and see what exactly is the reason you haven’t received the grade you hoped for. They may have an opinion different to the exam specification to further your grade or say specifically what is missing.

Look at the mark scheme/ exam specification and highlight it: think about how the question should be answered and what needs to be included in your answer. Look for things that might be needed like quotes, facts, statistics etc

Read through your exam and highlight where you have used these things: if you see a quote then highlight it blue and if you see a statistic highlight it yellow. Make a colour code for thing you need to see and use it.

Look at how much you’ve used these neccassary things: is it too little? Then you need to include more. Too much to the point that you are not actually answering the question but rather just giving a history lesson? Cut it down. These facts should be intergrated into your answer.

Rewrite a paragraph: you know what you need to include and know how the question should be answered so now try rewriting one paragraph and perfect it.

Try to rewrite the whole essay or try a different essay: if you are struggling with just one specific question then redo that however maybe try another question if it’s purely the type of essay that you are struggling with.

A couple other important things:

If you still struggle then speak to a teacher: They can help you learn the syllabus or answering the question if you struggle with one particular thing.

Don’t blame yourself: school is hard so don’t feel it’s all your fault. Try to focus on improving.

Anyway I hope these tips can help people in some way! If you ever want more help send me an ask and since I have no social life I’ll answer it pretty quick.

useful tips for students [pt.1]

conjured some tips from my personal experience or from what i have observed others doing. heads up that it’s perfectly fine if these tips may not be applicable for you. we are all different yet wonderful human beings.

general

make sure to always pack tissues like at least two packets as it bounds to get cold soon

also, pack some wipes. just in case you decide to eat greasy food or someone spills something on you. accidents happen. 

keep a power bank/charger on you, in case your phone/device dies

have some emergency cash with you, wherever you go. it doesn’t have to be a lot, just enough for transport or food

have a study group chat with your peers. it will be beneficial in the long term, especially when you missed out on a lesson/lecture or you do not understand something

failure is a part of life. learn from it. learn how to pick yourself up and use it as a learning experience.

education

remember that everyone has a different preference on how they learn. what may work for them may not work for you and vice versa

do a little bit of work every day. even drafting your essay is enough. 

don’t leave your work until the last minute

just avoid procrastinating. it makes you feel like shit afterwards

you don’t need to spend 65738 hours on one subject.

focus on the subject/topic that you are struggling on

it’s okay to have study burn out. make sure to take care of yourself first

and it’s absolutely okay to not being able to grasp a concept at first. even though you may be slower than the rest, remember that everyone learns at a different pace. you will get the concept eventually. your efforts will pay off. 

don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it

but please don’t make fun of others when they struggle. just don’t. 

not following a timetable for studying is cool

study smart child, not hard.

switch around with your study methods. find what works for you and what doesn’t. but don’t do that when you have exams nearby

it’s okay to forget stuff, mistakes happen - keep a note to yourself to not let it happen again

show up to class, you heathen

and please, for the love of bees, pay attention in class no matter how boresome or tedious you find. you are not going to learn anything through scrolling on your social media or gossiping with the person next to you

don’t procrastinate, seriously, study first then play later

reward yourself! when accomplishing something! or getting that grade that you wanted! 

health

bring a snack!!! your stomach will thank you later

always bring a drink, preferably water, to stay hydrated

studying 24/7 is not healthy

self-care is a must - whether that means wearing face masks, having a day off from studying, binge watching a show, tidying up a room or even calling a friend. you need a break sometimes.

remember that you are still growing as a person

exercise! is! a! requirement!

meditate to relieve some of that tension

if you need to cry, then do so. don’t bottle up your emotions

avoid energy drinks and coffee if you are going to try to pull an all-nighter 

your health, whether it’s physical or mental, is important

darling, you’re important. remember that.

A little reminder to myself and everyone else.

tips for science majors (and all college students)

hey everyone! i decided to compile a list of tips for college students, specifically science majors because a lot of people are starting college soon. a lot of these could apply to any majors in general, but i’m simply speaking from my own experience.

handwrite your notes! I know it can be tempting to type them on your laptop because so many science classes are so heavy with information and lectures move so fast, but handwriting notes is super helpful and a lot of times an easier option, especially when drawing diagrams and writing reactions 

make at least 2 friends in every class to study and share notes with. chances are you won’t understand everything perfectly and getting a different perspective might make things clearer. also helpful if you miss a lecture!

practice questions are your best friend! this is true for most classes, but they’re absolutely necessary when it comes to classes like organic chemistry. look up practice questions and tests online and use them.

if you don’t already know any statistics, learn the basics. stats is ESSENTIAL and has come in handy for almost every science class i’ve taken. knowing what a t-test is, p value, alpha value, etc. beforehand is super helpful for labs and reading papers.

practice reading scientific journal articles as much as you can. this is a skill that i’ve yet to master and can be really frustrating but knowing how to process and understand those dense articles is really important no matter what you want to do in your life. most school libraries have subscriptions to most major databases like pubmed and journals like nature and science, so dedicate some time once or twice a month to read an article that’s interesting to you. focus on trying to interpret the figures and summarizing the data.

youtube is great for explaining scientific concepts you don’t understand. because certain processes and molecules etc. are so complex and may be hard to understand from a textbook with words and 2-D pictures, videos on youtube might explain and help visualize things better. there are some good ones out there but googling the topic you’re looking for usually brings up some helpful material!

khanacademy (my all-time fave i would literally die for khan academy guy he can have my firstborn) 

crash course

interactive biology

bozeman science (also has videos for ap bio/chem/physics/environmental science!)

minute physics 

get involved in research as early as possible. even if you don’t think you’ll like it, getting involved in research is a great experience for anyone. research professors and their work and email as many as you can before the semester starts to see if you can work in their labs. not only does it look great on your resume but you’ll also learn so much about the scientific process.

get a chalkboard/whiteboard for your room. it’s a great study tool to practice drawing mechanisms, reactions, processes, figures, etc. it literally saved my butt in organic chem last year.

don’t get stressed if you don’t know what you want to do with your major. try different things. do research in different labs on varying topics, talk to your professors and advisors, do some shadowing, talk to people in different industries.  

rewrite your notes and redraw diagrams. rewriting notes is a good tip for anyone, but redrawing diagrams in a different way than they’re presented in your textbook or lecture in a way that you understand better is super helpful.

don’t put lab reports off until the last minute. lab reports are the bane of my existence, but there’s nothing more stressful than doing one at the last minute before it’s due and realizing your results made NO sense. start them as soon as you finish the lab and don’t be afraid to ask for help from your lab instructor or other students.

those are all the ones i could think of at the moment! hopefully some of these are helpful for some of you :-)

Good afternoon, the academic culture of “if you’re not overworking, you don’t deserve success” is unhealthy.

[ohleaf]

🌼🌻study smarter🌻🌼

(here are some study tips straight from my psych notes)

1. interest: the brain prioritizes by meaning, value, and relevance so u remember things better if ur interested

find a study partner

do extra practice or research

teach it to someone else (this works so well!)

2. intent: be actively paying attention. very little learning actually takes place without attention

use a concentration check sheet (every time u get distracted, put a check on ur sheet. this is supposed to program ur mind to pay attention)

while u read, talk back to the author

ask questions during lectures (this is scary ik!! but do it!)

3. basic background: make connections to what u already know

preview and skim the material before u read it. or google it!

write out a list of vocab words before a lecture and leave some spaces between them to fill in during the lecture

read ahead of lectures

watch crashcourse tbh

4. selectivity: start by studying whats important

look for bolded words, graphics, pictures, chapter review questions in ur readings

listen for verbal clues like emphasis and repetition during lectures

make urself a study guide as u read and write down questions for urself to answer later as review (kinda like cornell notes)

5. meaningful organization: u can learn/rmr better if u group ideas into diff categories

apply vocab words to ur life

make flashcards and sort them (try not to have more than seven items in one category!)

use mnemonics

6. recitation: saying ideas aloud in ur own words strengthens synaptic connections! when u say something aloud u r forcing urself to pay attention

after u read, ask urself questions

talk abt what u learned w/ classmates outside of class

again, teach someone else

7. visualization: ur brain’s quickest and longest-lasting response is to images

convert info into a chart or graph

draw it out

make a mental video of a process

look at picture/video examples

8. association: memory is increased when facts are consciously associated w something u already know. memory = making neural connections

ask urself: is this something i already know?

9. consolidation: give ur brain some time to establish a neural pathway

make a list of what u remember from class

review notes at the end of the day, every day

stop after reading each prg to write a question in ur notes

make ur own practice quiz

10. distributed practice: we all know cramming doesnt work but we do it anyway! but yeah short and frequent study sections work better

make a daily/weekly study schedule

create a time budget/time tracker (track everything ur doing for a week and see how u can be more efficient w/ the time u waste)

divide the reading/vocab by the number of days before an exam and do a little bit each day (u can use sticky notes to divide ur reading)

other tips:

stop stressing! this sounds stupid and it isnt going to be easy, but anxiety causes u to lose focus. try ur best to think positively. sleep a lot. minimize ur caffeine intake. take a walk maybe

when u need to remember something, look upward or close ur eyes (when ur eyes are open ur using visual parts of ur brain that u might not need to be using)

find a rival! (like the person right above u in class rank) secretly compete w/ them (envy can improve mental persistence bc it makes u focus more intensely) but dont overdo it! 

walking and sleeping build memory storage in ur brain

eat flavonoids! (grapes, berries, tea leaves, cocoa beans make neurons in the brain more capable of forming new memories + increase blood flow to the brain)

obstacles force ur brain to try harder, so space learning lessons apart or create a puzzle to solve or change ur physical setting

[alimastudies]

When studying, most people try to find motivation thinking that this will get them through their study session, or they will see their failure as a result of a lack of motivation. While motivation might be useful in the short term, discipline is what you need in the long term to succeed. 

Lets take a look at the difference:

motivation- a goal or reward that you look forward to that will encourage you to study - while this is useful, what happens on a day when you just don’t feel like studying?

discipline- being trained to routinely study regardless of how unmotivated you are - this is what will get you out of bed on a day you don’t feel like studying.

How to become self-disciplined:

1. Just do it. Whatever the task is, whether its due in a month or due tomorrow, just get on with it. No point procrastinating because you’re wasting time. Instead you can do the task and then reward yourself! Be harsh on yourself (but not too harsh!). Set short term goals, make a to-do list, delete all social media, do whatever it takes to just get that damn task done!

2. No zero days!. whether its studying for 30 mins or 3 hours, study for some time everyday. This will help help develop a routine and make it easier for you to cope. Also, by studying everyday you’re brain will know that the content you are learning should be stored as long-term information so this will benefit you during exam season!

3. Avoid long breaks. Unless you are 100% confident that taking an hour break means ONY an hour break then you can ignore this step. But like the majority, we can get extremely distracted and our hour break can end up being a 4 hour break and then we realise it’s time to go to bed?! To avoid this, only take small breaks when you know you are losing energy/ concentration. The last thing you want is studying for 30 mins and your brain is in the mood to be productive, then you take a 15 min break and come back but realise you want a longer break and not in the mood to study anymore. 

4. Be patient. It’s going to be a rough journey, it’s going to be hard but you’ve got this! Take it one step at a time. Start off by completing one task a day, then move to two, then three, and the next thing you know, you’ll have a regular routine where you will constantly be ticking off your to-do list everyday! Also, please be kind to yourself, know when your body is not in the right state of health to study and don’t force it. Only force yourself to a limit, you’ll know when to stop and that’s ok. Just try again when you feel better!

thank you for reading this and I hope this has helped, please feel free to message me!

physics doesn’t have to suck: how to enjoy and do well in your required physics classes

As someone who doesn’t intend to take a physics class ever again, I was relieved when I walked out of my second semester physics final. That said, physics doesn’t have to suck or drag your average down. 

(1) How to enjoy physics: Adjust your attitude. Physics is so cool if you actually think about it. Your attitude will dictate your experience. (2) But physics is so hard: Change the way you study and don’t give up. I did better in university physics than in high school. The content was way more difficult but it was my studying methods that made the difference.

This post is split into 3 parts: Introductory physics (very basic physics, that unit of physics you had to do in a lower level science class), high school physics (physics from an algebra-based perspective), and university physics (calculus-based physics and labs). (Obviously these overlap a lot but I needed to organize this somehow)

INFO IS UNDER THE CUT B/C THIS POST IS RIDICULOUSLY LONG

For Those Of You Going To Uni / College:

With lots of people having fresh starts this September I thought it was important to share this. I was talking to my aunt today and she said something that really calmed my nerves.

She went to medical school and she was expressing how so many people refer to university as, “the best years of your life”.

In reality this just isn’t true for everyone and my aunt was saying how it’s important not to feel demoralised for not having the best years of your life at university.

There is a certain pressure that because you’re young you need to get out there and meet lots of people and experience as much as you can whilst you have the freedom of being a university student. For many people this is a time of great excitement however others may not have this experience.

At medical school my aunt had to deal with gruelling hours of studying and lessons with intense subject matter. She got ill during certain graphic aspects of training and for a while she really wanted to drop out of medicine. She felt like an outcast as she couldn’t attend many parties or make lots of friends due to the intensity of her course.

But now she has had the best years of her life. She has travelled extensively, worked as a high ranking A&E consultant, brought a house and she’s even recently had a baby.

So for people who may not have the best time at university, just know that your negative experiences are valid amongst the many people who will feel that they are having the best years of your life.

[kadywicker]

the fact that community colleges are seen as less valid and for “stupid” people is a result of classism and in this essay I will-

[kadywicker]

ppl in the tags saying that it’s “genuinely a lesser tier of education because people go there for trades and nursing and thats about it” are just proving that its classism. bc a) no thats absolutely not correct. a good chunk of people that go to community colleges do so to knock out their gen eds at a lower price than they’d be if they went to a four year, then transfer to a four year. and more importantly b) trade professions are not lesser than other professions that take higher degrees. people who go into things that take associates degrees are not “stupid”.

if you think ppl who are too poor to attend a four year university for all four years, or that ppl who are too poor to/don’t want to get their bachelor’s/master’s/doctorate are “stupid” then i have news for you:

thats classism, babe

[intj-confessions]

When I was in high school I believed all that shit. They talked to us about appling to college and said this: University of California? They take the top 8%. Cal State? They take the top 16%. Community College? Well they take all the rest. 

So there I was, a fucking smartypants with parents who could afford it, so I went to a UC. Yes, there were other factors involved in my decision (they had a really rare major I wanted and it was supposedly more likely to get into their vet school when transferring internally). That said, community college to me was where the losers who didn’t study went. 

So I went to a UC and fucking hated a lot of it. The classes were too big. My chemistry courses were in the school movie auditorium and filled up all the seats. Most of the professors were only there to do research and didn’t give a damn about teaching. Those that did give a damn usually weren’t very good at it, even though they did try. Everything was graded on a curve. Students didn’t understand the material and failed their exams? Who cares! Let’s curve that motherfucker. I had a chemistry exam where the average grade was 28% so they made that a C. Imagine your foundation of knowledge for harder classes being at that low a level. One math professor told us straight up that because he curved everything, we’d be competing with one another for the top grades. If the top 8 people got 95% they would get A’s, and whoever had 94% would get a B tough shit. It was a meat grinder.

I ended up dropping out for a variety of reasons and went back to school later at a community college. Classes were small and personal. Teachers cared about students. My grandfather died right before a chem exam and my teacher said I could take the exam whenever it was convenient for me. Need a week? Two? Fine, whatever you need. I was treated like a human instead of a number.

Most of my teachers were extremely passionate about their subject matter. Many had previously worked in the private sector, so they could tell us how what we were learning applied in the real world. I had a chem professor who told us never to erase or blot out lab book notes. Only use strikeout so it could still be read. Why? Because apparently if a company got taken to court over something all the notes had to be readable, even if later corrected. Knowing why we do things a certain way is incredibly important.

And it was cheaper! I got a better education at that community college than I did at the UC, for a hell of a lot less. I didn’t stay there as I was aiming for a B.S., but it allowed me the flexibility to try out (inexpensively) new fields of interest and then complete my general ed courses. Subjects like chemistry and physics, which I had trouble passing at a UC, finally made sense to me in a more practical, personal environment.

Don’t discount community college. College SHOULD be affordable and accessible.

No one really properly prepared me for online classes and for this whole new world of the social sciences. So, this semester I feel like I’ve been reinventing the wheel re: how I approach getting my work done. I developed this method, which has proved very helpful. It ensures I get my assignments done on time, without wasting too much time on readings. NOTE: This method may not work for all types of classes, and it may not work for all people. For the record, I have issues with executive function and find sticking to it really helpful. Feel free to adapt it to make it work for you. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to shoot me an ask.

IMPORTANT TIP FOR SCHOOL!!!

I cannot stress this enough; If you have been studying the same thing for a while and catch yourself starting to half-ass it and skip things and you keep getting distracted just give yourself a break!!!! You’re not going to absorb any of the information!!! Take a break, move onto another subject, have a snack, lay out in the sun for a bit, walk your dog, I don’t know but just stop until you have gathered yourself enough to continue with a focused mind!!!!!!
