Hello! Here is a picture of the cover for my associates degree, even though the degree isn’t in it yet.

This morning was day 2 of my job shadow experience, and it was a little boring, but at the same time I felt like I was watching the Office... which was interesting. In one room there were two boxes labeled, “To Shred” and “Or Not To Shred”, which I found to be awesome.

A few minutes ago, my roommate and I completed booking our dorm room via snapchat and we’re really excited!

Update

Hello everyone, sorry for not posting much. Here is an update on me.

Since my last post, I have officially graduated college and will be receiving my associates degree in arts in six weeks. I was crying with relief a few hours before, and I had a wonderful dinner with my mom and stepdad. My sister was not able to attend because she is currently in the hospital for poor lung function and a surgery coming up soon.

This morning, I started job shadowing a local CPA firm in my area, and I learned a lot in the first day! My teacher recommended coming in with a list of questions, so if you ever get the opportunity to job shadow, here is a big list of questions you may want to look at:

Questions

I literally googled ‘job shadow questions’ and this was the first result of the search.

I took some time to myself today and rode on my bike while listening to Stay by Post Malone around my neighborhood for half an hour or so and I felt really content with myself and my life. I’m hoping to do this again every day this week.

Tomorrow evening, my roommate at university and I will be able to pick our dorm room and we’re both very excited!

A week after Friday, I will be graduating with my high school diploma and after that, I guess I’ll just be updating you all on my transition from high school/community college to university.

I hope you all find the time to feel content with where you are in life. You have all experienced so much, so take some time to look back and appreciate all the obstacles you faced and conquered to get where you are now, with all your accomplishments and new discoveries that you make every day.

I Can’t Wait

I can’t wait to go to university. I can’t wait to go to the summer camps where I will be meeting my roommate for the first time and learning more about my school. I can’t wait to put on my jersey for they first time that has the word “Curlz” on the back above the year that I will graduate. I can’t wait to make friends that I can get up and talk to my dreams with on starry nights because I thought of them as soon as I woke up. I can’t wait to take cute, admiring pictures of my friends with cute snapchat filters and setting them as their contact pictures because I appreciate and love them. I can’t wait to tease my friends about their flaws that I actually admire, but I love to see the way they react. I can’t wait to make lifelong relationships with the people I meet and make memories of get-togethers, parties, study sessions, etc. because I can learn more about who they are as people. I can’t wait to make my dorm look cute by hanging up fairy lights and posters and things that I’ve always wanted to do for my bedroom but couldn’t. I can’t wait to study at my own desk decorated with the stationary and knick-knacks that I actually like. I can’t wait to eat snacks and binge watch shows on Netflix and listen to songs from musicals with my roommate on the weekends. I can’t wait to buy merch that represents my school and show that I am proud of the school I stand for and its legacy. I can’t wait to go to every football game and scream my head off whenever my team scores. I can’t wait to ride my beautiful bike to my classes and admire my school campus. I can’t wait for the silly icebreakers professors may have me and my fellow classmates do to ease up on their first day of class. I can’t wait for the homesick nights where I want nothing more than to sit and watch TV or play games in the living room with my family. I can’t wait for the struggle that I’ll have with being an independent person and relying on myself to do adult things like forcing myself to study and eat three times a day and get to class on time and keep my room clean and do laundry on a regular basis because I’ll know how hard I’ve worked after and will be proud of what I’ve accomplished. I can’t wait for all my emotions and learning to be okay with them because they’re natural and are part of who I’m learning to become. I can’t wait for it all.

*has free time to study for a college class I’m barely passing* “Oh, I should post something on my studyblr!” Senior year is anyone’s busiest year, don’t judge me.

[studiousbear]

I have spent the entire weekend working on this four-page essay, and I was very nervous about how well I would do. I just looked at my grade for it and I got a 99/90!

I wish everyone luck on all your grades!

mood: *has a studyblr* *does everything relatively last minute*

I am being way too hard on myself for microeconomics. Yesterday I broke down and I need to not let overthinking get the best of me. I’ve never made worse than a C, so as long as I work hard, I will be able to get my degree as planned, I just need to be more patient and loving with myself.

I am smart, I am awesome, and I got this!

[studiousbear]

I just wanted to put in a cute sticky note thing to help me get ahead, but now I realized I have so much to do and I’m sad. As long as I have at least a D in my microeconomics class, I can get my associates degree in three weeks.

[studiousbear]

Geology notes for my exam tomorrow morning and stressing about whether or not I’ll pass microeconomics and be able to graduate. I am hoping for the best and trying to find time to study! Wish me luck! (Art posted by @malignantlyuselesss)

School is starting to look like a horror movie in the mornings. However, I was able to take a cute picture of some daisies that my freshman biology teacher has out for a project.

If you’re having a bad day, find at least one thing to appreciate. It will make the day not suck as much.

Sometime next month, I will be job shadowing an accounting firm, I’m just not sure which one yet. I’m learning as much as I can about some local businesses through their websites so I’ll know what to expect from any place I may work in the future! I’m putting the most emphasis on individual history, mission statement, and services, then I will contact each firm and ask if they’re interested.

Take a break from studying every once in a while. You deserve it! I went to Starbucks today and got the best Pink Drink I’ve ever had!

[studiousbear]

I have a geologic time scale quiz this Friday, and this is my study guide! I’d also like to incorporate a mnemonic device to help me memorize the order!

My friend: “What are you doing?”

Me: *whispers* “Being extra.”

4/13 EDIT: So I created an acronym to study, which turned out to be:

Queer

Nuggets

Protect

Cats

Just

Trying

Pajama

Pants

Many

Don’t

So

Often

Check

Every

Price

And I ended up getting a 105 on the quiz!

[studiousbear]

Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone! I have to be productive today because two hours of study time are going into highlighting my hair for the first time (yay!) and I have a huge research paper due in two weeks. I hope you all have a good day!

Hello!

My name is Melea, I am 18, I live in Texas, and this is my studyblr! I am currently taking high school and college classes and will graduate in May with an associate’s degree in arts and my high school diploma.

Some things I like are boba tea, blueberry muffins, nice notes, animals, and the color yellow. Some of my hobbies are journaling, hanging out with friends, photography, watching Netflix, studying, and reading.

I’m not an expert at studying - but if you ask for studying advice, I will answer the best that I can.

Here are five studyblr accounts I follow:
