How to get your life together : a guide

1) Make a list of goals you want to achieve, if you don’t you’re going to forget about them. It could be yearly goals, it could be monthly goals or both (even better). Just write them down and put them somewhere you can see them every day. Also don’t forget about the smart rule :

Specific (simple, sensible, significant).

Measurable (meaningful, motivating).

Achievable (agreed, attainable).

Relevant (reasonable, realistic and resourced, results-based).

Time bound (time-based, time limited, time/cost limited, timely, time-sensitive).

2) Choose habits which will lead your towards your goals. You want to be a the top of your class ? Start by actually completing your homework, assignments and by paying attention in class. You want strong and healthy hair ? Stop using heat every day and start a hair care routine. Yes, it is that simple trust me.

3) Starts adding those habits to your daily life and be realistic. For exemple, if you want to achieve your dream body start exercising and eating healthy. You want to keep those achievable and enjoyable : if you used to never step away from your couch for too long, you are not going to exercise 5 times a week right away. Start small, start with maybe twice a week and then add more when you feel ready.

4) Stop making excuses. You cannot reach your goals if you find excuses to stay home and do nothing such as « I will start on Monday » or « I am a bit tired today so I’ll just rest ». Don’t, if you really are motivated you will start right now and won’t skip your workout. The less you do, the less you wanna do.

5) Remind yourself why you wanna reach those goals and motivate yourself. You cannot solely rely on motivation, you have to create it yourself. Make vision boards of you dream life and ask yourself why you want to get out of your actual situation. If you already feel miserable and lazy in your every day life it won’t hurt to at least try, right ?

6) Enjoy the steps. That one is the most important. If you feel like completing a workout is torture, you will last a week or two tops. If doing your skin care or a daily walk feels boring, you will stop doing it. Try making those interesting by watching a movie or listening a podcast at the same time, find a workout you’re actually able to enjoy.

7) Finally : enjoy your results. If you’ve kept up the work for months, even weeks you will see them. People will start praising you about your hair, your skin… You will be able to see those changes yourself when you look at your body or at your grades. You will also be more confident because when you decide to put in the work and get results, you will be so proud of yourself I can assure you that.

I’m going to be making a power point on being a Hot Girl and what all it entails and all the work, maintenance, self care and self love it takes to run this shit.

There will also be a hot girl calendar included!

Which will break down the routine from the daily, to the monthly to the yearly on what should be in the rotation to help anyone be their best self.

In the meantime I’m going to be using this blog to save notes and ideas here untagged for the moment. I can’t wait until this has been completed 🥰

[self-care-hoe13]

The 3 mainstays of any Hot Girl are as follows:

Knowledge

Hygiene

Objective view point

[self-care-hoe13]

Tomorrow starts the beginning of my glowup journey. Obviously I can’t start everything at once, and I won’t be perfect right away but I can lay the ground work for good healthy habits that I want to be the base of the best version of myself. That starts with a plan for the next day and a good nights rest. Working from the ground up when using “The Hierarchy of Beauty” chart means focusing on 5 main components: Diet, Fitness, Sleep, Hygiene, and Environment. My meal prep for the next 3 days has been completed, I have my cardio clothes set out for tomorrow morning, my alarms are set to give me a full 8 hours, shower and skincare have been completed, and the house has been cleaned. Cheers to a great start 🥰 #glowup #bestversionofyou #beauty #workout

[self-care-hoe13]

One of my Instagram goals is to also have a workout/cardio accountability group chat where we can all check in and hype each other up and spread positivity especially on our bad days🥰

[self-care-hoe13]

Hey y’all!

I’m going to be making a glow up Instagram which will essentially be tracking my glowup journey, specifically in the categories of fitness, discipline, and self care, both mental and physical.

My monthly budget/ expenses:

This is kinda just an outline of what percentage of my paycheck goes to what. And it can help you get an idea of how much you can afford when moving out. So for example, if you make $2,000 a month, your rent shouldn't be more than 35%, which means that you can afford to pay a $700 monthly rent.

🌿Rent: 25-35%

🌿Bills: 5-8%

🌿Car (gas/ repairs): 10%

🌿Car insurance: 5%

🌿Groceries: 10%

🌿Phone Bill: 2-5%

🌿Healthcare: 5-10%

🌿Savings: 10-20%

🌿Fun stuff: 5-10%

This is just a model that works best for me. It might fluctuate a bit depending on your personal situation. In order to cauculate the percentages, just move the decimal two spaces, and multiply. So for example l, if I need to find 10% of my 2,000 paycheck, take 10. move the decimal to the left two spaces .10 and multiply:

2,000 x .1 = 200

Same for single numbers like 5%, just add a 0, for example,

5%= .05

2,000 x .05 = 100

A great app to use for keeping track of expenses is every dollar. It walks you through your budget at the beginning of the month, and then you just enter in what you spend. It's great practice to use it even before you move out :)

Hope this helps!

Prep Week

Skincare:

For Day One she mentions a once a week facial that includes the following.

1. When searching for Spry the only thing I found were mints which is very different than the Crisco she also mentioned on this step, I’m going to stick with Crisco, though I am scared to use it as my skin gets oily and clogged easily. I’m not sure why cold cream like Pond’s wasn’t used, but for right now I’m going to trust the process. As of right now Crisco costs $4.19

2. Next up we have Facial Tissues which cost $1.29. I have a feeling these will disintegrate while using them and it will clog my pores, but again I must trust the process and hope these are what she meant.

3. Vinegar is easy enough to not misinterpret and costs $3.99

4. A Facial Sauna. She goes on to mention these are cheap, however I don’t see why steaming my face with a towel and the bathroom sink wouldn’t do the job but as for pricing for a Facial Sauna the cheapest one I found was $19.51. However I do think I’ll simply steam my face over the sink because that is a little out of my budget for an experiment.

5. A paste made of oatmeal and honey. In my experience I’ve heard oatmeal isn’t as useful for soothing skin as was once thought, but I feel like I’ll get my moneys worth in breakfasts. Honey though I believe is very good for the skin. (Not that honey will not be integrated into my diet as soon as I purchase it) Oatmeal costs $5.14 and Honey would be $3.87

6. Cotton pads, easy and straightforward enough. Costs $3.18

7. Witch Hazel I trust with my life and my skin as of right now, and costs $5.97

8. 4 Slices of cucumber, one whole cucumber costs ¢69

9. Eye Drops cost $5.45

10. Face Moisture. I’m going to be using my Innisfree simply because I already have it, which cost me around $18 I believe, however much cheaper options are easily accessible.

In total (Not including moisturizer) we are looking at $53.99. Much more than I thought but to be fair everything here will give you MONTHS of facials.

An Update:

I’ve been doing some reading lately and have found myself fascinated with Eileen Ford and her books. Right now I’m going through her book “A More Beautiful You in 21 Days” and all of the fun things inside for self improvement. I think I might post some routines here and how they work for me over the course of the next few weeks.

[self-care-hoe13]

These were from about a month ago, I felt really good and cute so I thought I would share them here ♥️

[self-care-hoe13]

If there is one tiktok that I’m gonna carry with me wherever I go it’s gotta be this one.

We can’t become good at something without being bad at it for a long time, first.💛 Some makeup tricks I wish I knew sooner #andGO #queertok

[self-care-hoe13]

I suppose I always just forget this blog is here, and never commit or update it. HOWEVER I have been fortunate enough to hire a personal trainer and have been actively working out and weight training since February! We are working on me eating better while still enjoying the things I love, which isn’t going the best but I’m doing a lot better and have been broadening my horizons, which is a really cool development!

Working-out Masterlist Pt. I

One of the biggest by-products of the pandemic would be the boom in home fitness. Personally, I find home-videos better than going to the gym; they are convenient, free and there is no commitment to a 30 min video. Now, I do consider myself as some sort of a YouTube fitness connoisseur. I cannot think of someone I haven’t tried!? You have seen it; I have done it.

I have listed different youtubers and rated their ‘BURN!’ factor and style (HIIT, Pilates, Dance). Whilst I have tried to be as objective as possible, what I will find easy and hard will be different to what you might find easy or difficult.

HITT/Set style workout

Emi Wong (HIIT)

Burn level: 🔥 🔥 (🔥) /10

Emi Wong is up next. The queen of ‘slim down your thighs’- I have known her all my teen years and she is another basic favourite. I would say her workouts are a little more diverse and slightly harder than Chole’s, with her BURN! being more intense than but she would be still considered basic.

Pros:

·       My go-to for easy sweaty workouts.

·       Her leg workouts are pretty much rite of passage. They are good and simple.

·       She is so encouraging throughout, and she magically seems to know when you need it.

·       Emi’s workouts really do work, with me and herself being a testament to how good she is.

1. 2. 3.

Recommend it to beginner.

Note: I do feel like her workouts are becoming slightly more harder so if you are a complete beginner go for her old ones.

Madfit (HITT and dance)

Burn level: 🔥 🔥🔥/10

I feel like some people would already know her for her dance workouts. I was quite unsure about whether if I would consider her easy or medium because her dance workouts are easy, but her HIIT workouts are harder.

Pros-

·       Her song choices for her dance videos are really. She also has a lot of K-pop covers which as well are fun and easy.

·       HIIT workouts are harder in terms of the exercises but I do not find her challenging.  

1. 2. 3.

Recommend it to beginner.

 Lucy Wyndham-Read (Workout sets)

Burn level: 🔥 /10

Pros:

·       Her workouts are short, less than 10 minutes usually. So, I would do them twice through or do it once in the morning and once at night.

·       She is just the cutest.

·       The workouts are all pretty much low-impact, great for people who live in flats or who have weak knees.

1. 2. 3.

Recommend it to beginners.

April Hans (Workout sets)

I simply love her. She is just so nice and calming. She talks your through her workouts, usually explaining biology behind the exercises which I appreciate. She is Chinese so her videos are in Mandarin, but she does have English subtitles. I would also like to add because she is an Asian her workouts are targeted to an Asian audience. I have read far too many mean comments calling her all sort of things simply because she does not want a big bum. If you want slimming and toning, April Hans is for you.

Pros:

·       Workouts that deliver results!!

·       Her accent in Mandarin is nice and I always try to copy her. If you are learning Mandarin, her videos are a good introduction to advanced vocabulary.

·       She does the workouts herself and at the beginning of the video she shows her progress with the workout. 

1.  2.  3.  

Recommend it to people who want to slim down. Easy Medium.

Lily Sabri

Burn level: 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 /10

My British queen. Lily’s workouts are hard.

Pros:

·       Her workouts are dynamic and difficult. There are no jumping jacks here.

·       Her energy is contagious, which is the only reason I make it to end.

·       No repetition! This is a big one for me. I refuse to do workouts where I have to do repeats or sets. For me, sets are dull and boring.

·       Nice mix of different circuit inspired workout.

1. 2. 3. 

Recommend it to medium. 

Challenge

Caroline Girvan (Challenge)

Burn level: 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 (🔥)/10

Caroline’s ‘Epic’ challenge programme is widely regarded as one of the hardest/toughest programmes to get through. I started this a while back, but I left it hanging for a while because I got sick. I will be re-starting this challenge this month!!

Pros:

·       YOU SEE RESULTS!

•  She does have a beginner version of Epic! No excuses here!

Cons:

·       ‘Epic’ does require you to have a range of equipment (weights) at home. 

1.  2. 3.( beginner)

Recommend it to advanced.

(EDIT: I will be back with how I got along.)

Chole Ting (HIIT)

Burn level: 🔥  🔥 🔥/10

If you were to come to me as a beginner to working out, I would point you to Chole Ting. I know you know her but that is because she is good. Chole’s workouts are easy to follow and direct, but this does not mean you do not get a good BURN! She does have some workouts that are a little more difficult, but they are not anything hard and if you are doing them with one of her challenges, you will fine.

Pros:

·       She covers a good range of basic exercises in her workouts.

·       she includes a warm-up and a cool down. A lot of people do not realise how important a good warm-up and a cool down is, so doing her workouts help build the habit of incorporating it into your routine.

·       Queen of challenges! If you are struggling with what to do and how to plan your workouts, she has many challenges that will give you structure.

·       Her channel also has a lot of food recipes which is helpful as well.

Cons-                    

·       Her music… it is quite irritating. Music PTSD is real.

·       Her workouts are repetitive (good for beginners but not really for anyone else). After some time of doing her workout, I can freestyle a ‘Chole Ting’ on the spot. So, I do recommend mixing other youtubers in, especially if you are like me (I am someone who gets bored very easily, so I like doing a variety of different workouts.).

1. 2. 3.

Recommend it to beginners.

 Pilates

 Taylor Toned(Pilates)

Burn level: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥/10

Pilates are extremely misleading. Advertised more relaxing alternative fitness, Pilates leaves you shaking and on a verge of a mid-awakening meltdown. I personally like Taylor more than other Pilate youtubers (100% because she is British so listening to her speak is tore able-) and she is my go-to.

Pros:

·       You will not be able to move the next two days after.

·       Like I said, she does speak but it more like a nice 80s dance vid than an annoyingly positive spiel.

1.  2. 3.

Dance

Hands Clap (Dance)

Burn level: 🔥/10

This just gained some attention on Tiktok but this 3min turned 30 min routine was a HUGGGGEEEEEEEE hit in Japan and Korea. (Like, my socials were just this for a long time.) So many people were able to lose weight by doing this for a couple of weeks, which is not bad considering this is low impact.

Pro-

·       As straightforward as it gets and it’s fun too.

·       I know I said low impact and is not strenuous at all but do expect to break a sweat.

Con-

·       You will live, breathe, eat the song.

·       I am so sick and tired of the song at this point.

1.(15 min version) 2.(results)

Warmups, Stretching and cool-downs:

1. 2.  3.  4.

There are so many other youtubers that I get my workouts from. The main reason I like doing these are because of what I like in terms of aesthetics. Doing home workouts means that I am using my own body weight which helps with keeping lean and being strong from the inside. I really hope that this helped introduce some fitness youtubers to you.

Let me know how it goes.

Now that college students no longer have access to their libraries in the same way we used to and have to do most of our learning at home it would be just terrible if we all knew about https://1lib.eu/ a website which has books on basically every topic ever available for free including college textbooks. Imagine if people were researching their thesis without paying for it. 

DO NOT USE THIS SITE AND DEFINITELY DO NOT NOT TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT THIS SITE, THEY MIGHT START DOING THESIS RESEARCH FOR FREE OR JUST START READING BOOKS THEY FOUND ON THERE FOR FUN BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE INTERESTING. This would be terrible :( :(

Reblog to spread the word so that everyone knows to avoid this site!

[sraithpics]

Hey everyone they have NOT moved to:

https://2lib.org/

Do NOT enter this url to find free books :)

[sraithpics]

Some more websites to definitely not look up:

pdfdrive.com for 79,081,664 eBooks for free

core.ac.uk for the world’s largest collection of open access research papers

citationsy.com which is a free referencing tool for making citations

archive.org a non-profit library of millions of free books, movies, software, music, websites, and more

elephind.com for free newspaper articles from around the world

don’t tell your friends :)

legitimate fucking lifehack: discord server literally just for yourself to keep track of stuff over devices. links. reminders and checklists. all neatly divided into categories. search function and dates. why didnt i do this earlier oh my god.

[actualbird]

op here. everybody adding passive aggressive comments like “just use [other thing]” or “wow u dont know [other thing] exists get well soon ❤️” owes me 5 dollars

everybody else especially adhd folks are very welcome and i hope u see something beautiful today

[thatadhdmood]

ive been doing this lately and it works pretty well!

these r the channels i use

basically organisation has my schedule and any random stuff thats happening or i gotta do

media is where i drop a youtube video, episode of a show, or fic im reading with the time of where i am in the video that i need to close so i can focus

plus it doubles as a catalog of stuff to do when I’m bored!

then document is links to things i need open to do work or any slideshow links i get for school

and formulas are the formulas i always search for those classes like a wavelength formula or molar mass or smth!
