11.17.21 | Quick update whilst I grind in one of the campus libraries. Currently trying to get my shit together and aggregate + summarize data for this research paper while also having an existential crisis about whether or not I even want to do this in the future. Love that for me

Passed my MSK exam and now it's onto the endocrine and reproductive systems... our final block of M2 year before multi-system and step 1 dedicated!

How do you stay motivated during winter?

I schedule social activities for the weekends, so that I have something to look forward to during the week. I also have a study group and we do practice problems together, which is really fun and motivating.

What is your favorite winter outfit?

I love the aesthetic of a sparkly dress under my black wool coat with its fluffy fur-trimmed hood, with sleek boots and a pair of velvet gloves, because it makes me feel elegant. I also love the coziness of bundling up in a big soft sweater, comfy leggings, and wool socks after spending time outside in the cold.

What winter activities do you love?

My favorite is downhill skiing. I also like snow-shoeing, ice skating, and I want to try cross-country skiing this year. For indoor winter activities, I like baking, knitting, and reading a good book in the warmth of a crackling fire.

spent the entire day reading for uni and writing down my notes in my notebook – why is it easy to read 200 pages of a novel but hard to read 10 pages vor uni? 😔

About the Pictures: I don’t think I’ve ever been to a library this early, I arrived at 7:45 this morning. But I’m glad I went because I was able to get a few more notes done and prepare a bit for my lecture in 30 minutes :) For my notes I generally type up key points from the readings, but I still do handwritten notes for the lectures.

Friday, 21st August - If there was a tropical island made just for you, what would you find on it?

A nice, sandy beach, medium temperatures, a couple of palm trees with a hammock in between, and maybe someone to cook for me so I don’t have to? Also, the company would be nice so I guess I’d also want my friends there hahah.

Library Study Night!

Went to my campus library twice today, first to work on my Intro to Film humanities course and a bit of my Math 111; I returned to work on my C Programming!

At first, I couldn't get my code to work right, I erased the files and quit the program at least five times, but suddenly something clicked in my brain, and I got some coherent code written!

Got any tips for me, as a person brand-new to programming? Feel free to reply, DM, or send an ask!

qotd: Have you guys started with the new school year already? If so, have your study habits changed?

I started college 3 days ago, and I am currently in the process of finding my rhythm once again since with all the changes happening I feel like my old study habits won't be enough 💛

Day 1/100 || Reviewing the general principles of civil law. I mean, going through the basics all over again. Because I did not pass the civil service exam. I felt like crap a few days ago, and it took a while for me to realise that I have to sit and actually LEARN the basics before I'm in the position to actually do better. Wish me luck♡
