September 19  I haven’t posted for a while. I felt really lazy but here I am trying to get back on the track. Here are my notes for Statistics. It is the first time I used this style of note-taking and I have to admit that I love how it went.

More photos from Korea lmao. There’s just something about this photo that makes me go back to it time and time again. Maybe it’s because of the colors and composition of the things in the photo or maybe it could be because this was the first thing I saw when I really was out of the airport.

Some of my notes from my IB Language and Literature class~ We looked more into the whole Charlottesville incident and examined perspectives with the VICE documentary on the Charlottesville protests. I honestly really liked the style of that lesson. Examining videos and perspectives hell yeah

[trainthief]

being in love with the process and not the results is one of the healthiest things in the world

[trainthief]

in this same vein: being proud of yourself for the work and not the product brings so much more happiness

Friendly reminders taken from @cwote

Your mental health is more important than your grades

You are good enough, smart enough, pretty enough, and strong enough

Don’t just be good to others, be good to yourself too

Embrace all that is you

You will be okay

Just breathe. It will be okay.

Be proud of yourself for how hard you’re trying.

Be nice to yourself

Don’t beat yourself up. You are doing the best you can.

Be gentle with yourself, you’re doing the best you can.

Better things are coming.

Loving yourself is the greatest revolution.

Remind yourself, you deserve to be happy

Respect yourself. Don’t let others tell you who you are.

Learn to say no to people and things that make you unhappy.

Enjoy your own company.

Forgive yourself.

Never apologise for how you feel

Give yourself some credit. You’ve come pretty far.

Mental health is just as important as physical health.

Surround yourself with good vibes

Stop worrying about people who aren’t worried about you.

If you find you are surrounded by toxic people… Cut. Them. Out.

[phoebe-does]

Something I think we don’t do enough, especially as students, is forgive ourselves. We’re constantly striving to be better, achieve better but along the way we’re beating ourselves up for making mistakes. For being human. It’s impossible to constantly be eating healthy, working out everyday, getting 8+ hours of sleep and getting straight As as well as doing a ton of co-curricular, we’re not superheroes and anything that promotes otherwise is lying. We are not perfect and the standards that we are held to these days is simply unrealistic. And beating yourself up for not achieving unrealistic expectations isn’t going to do you any good! Something we need to do more of is forgiving ourselves, forgive yourself for not doing the homework. You know you can do it tomorrow. Forgive yourself for not going to the gym when you know there’s a mountain of work waiting for you at home. Forgive yourself for having days where all you ate was junk. FORGIVE YOURSELF! We’re only human. We can only do so much.

This came at the prefect moment. I fell ill and didn’t do any work today. Going to bed early to let myself heal as much as possible. Not the best outcome but it’s not the end of the world

[stopslacking-startworking]

This is straight truth. So many people work so hard and push themselves so much even though they know it's unhealthy for them. A lot of my friends are this way and they don't really forgive themselves for not keeping up with their schoolwork even though they literally don't have enough time in a day to reach their extremely unrealistic expectations of themselves. That being said, they've come to understand what I've been trying to tell them (this, exactly THIS) and they're getting better at taking care of themselves which is all I ask.

Buenos días ☀️

I always like to start my day at the dining table with my devotional and a cup of tea, today I read in the book of Luke and enjoyed a cup of Bigelow’s Cinnamon Stick tea 😋 I’ve also started translating the verse of the day into Spanish and French to help me practice.

Today I’m planning on studying Spanish and French some more, working on spreads in my bullet journal, planning content for this blog, and researching skincare because I need a new routine 🙃

I hope everyone has a productive day!

[stopslacking-startworking]

That's actually so sweet ♥️

🍯This spread is really cute and I appreciate it in its entirety. 🐝

[flowerais-deactivated20211031]

sometimes you need to do the hard thing. study for your test even if it’s boring and you want to avoid it. get up an hour early to exercise even if you feel like death. go out of your way to help someone else even if it’s inconvenient. do something alone even though you’re afraid of being judged. go somewhere new even if it’s scary and disorientating at first. confess to the person who makes u blush even if it means risking rejection. let go of your old habits even though it feels like you can’t live without them. it’s supposed to be hard. life isn’t going to have amazing rewards if you’re always feeling comfortable.

[burntbruises-deactivated2020030]

Ahhh, heaven.

How relatable 📚

[adelinestudiess]

Just been catching up on Friends recently, relaxing myself after intense studying sessions for the past few days for tests. It is important to take good care of your mental and physical health!
