Was working to try and get up to date on all my classes yesterday and going to carry on today. I got an exam back this week and I got a 1st so I'm very happy. Hope everyone reaches their targets for this week. 😊🌻🎯 • • • • • • • #firstyear #uni #me #studyblr #studyspo #life #chemistry #biology #mindmap #motivation #tumblr #work #alevels #100daysofschool #100daysofproductivity #biochemistry #study #pretty #insta (at Huddersfield)
(Source) I found this online and thought it might be helpful with the SAT coming up! These are also good tips for any other test!
Here is what’s inside my DIY planner! The only thing I bought is the notebook, trust me. Anyways, I’m going to describe below a little about each section so you might have some idea with what to do with yours too! Having DIY planners are so much fun because there’s literally no limit to what you can and want to put inside!
♡ Cover ~ At first, I tried looking for a nice quote over pinterest but most of them are either too common or too mushy. I wanted something that’s motivating and also a little specific! Believe me when I say that I actually thought of my cover just casually and wrote it all under five minutes! If you want to read as to why and what my cover quote actually means, read it in my previous post here.
♡ Level 10 Life ~ This is the section that took me so long to finish because I just fail at making the perfect circle! But it’s also very rewarding after seeing that I was able to make a decent one and I’m excited to complete a goal! If you want me to discuss on how to go about it, let me know!
♡ Weekly spread ~ Ofc! I think this is quite self-explanatory. But this is also where I place my weekly goals and tracker. I will be showing to you my filled-up week page soon!
♡ Month at a glance ~ Just a start-up page for each month where I place important schedules / dates to remember as well as my goals for the month.
And that’s about it!I hope you enjoyed this post. Also, I’d love to read all your messages so ask away! Ciao!

How To Take Lecture Notes
The professors sometimes ask for students to print out lecture slides or take notes before class, so here are some ideas on what to do before, during, and after the lecture. Of course, these don’t have to be followed exactly as written, so you can use what works best for you. :)

I always find it useful when people share their note taking tips, so here are mine! I thought it would be handy to do it for my study specifically, maybe i’ll share a more general guide later. Feel free to add more tips if you want!
I am known as quite the Productive type, so here are some of my tips just for you guys!
Tip 1: plan ahead If you have a planner that is not time managed… Get one that is time managed. Right now I use my bullet journal in an altered way, when I want to spend a day properly getting THINGS DONE. Make sure you know how long you will need for a certain task and be specific in what that task is. 5 pages. A chapter. A certain subject. Now plan it into your time table, and take the time spaciously. Will it take 15 minutes? Plan 20. You will feel more rested and accomplished! ( also don’t forget breaks )
Tip 2: sleep. What? Sleep? Why sleep? Studyblr’s don’t sleep? Let me tell you. If a studyblr is advertising not taking care of your body because that’s hardcore? They are not doing it right. Sleep is essential. Make sure you have 8 hours of sleep, so you have enough energy for the day and start the day EARLY.
Tip 3: Don’t take hours getting ready 2 hours to get ready in the morning? You can use that time better. Go from bed straight to the shower so you will be fresh, get yourself some breakfast, chill for a bit and then 10 minutes before you planned to start studying, go grab your stuff and Do the job.
Tip 4: minimize your distractions Don’t put things on your desk that you won’t be using. It’s distraction and you don’t want that. Music with lyrics is a big no go for me. Spotify does some GREAT playlist just for this and also coffitivity.com (available in the appstore too) is a savior. Listen to that with headphones on and you immediately get into that productive state.
Tip 5: keep track of time I have used Pomodoro and those types of apps but they didn’t do the job for me. What I like to do is put the stopwatch of my Iphone next to me and every time I finish a “task” I start a new round. When I go for a break, I stop the stop watch, and in that way at the end of the day, I will see how many hours of real productivity I had and what I can do better next time.
Tip 6: Social media does not exist No, not even tumblr while searching the studyblr tag and aspecially not during small breaks. There are apps that won’t let you have access to social media your laptop or phone, but I just use my second iphone with no apps on there so twitter, tumblr, Facebook, non of it is available at the tap and luckily I am not that desperate to go on web to those sites haha!
And those are the Productivity tips I got for you as if now, Any questions or suggestions? Feel free to fill up my ask box!

New post on the blog! I haven’t posted this kind in a while, but they seem to be so popular I think I’ll start doing it again :)
5 Habits of Organized Students | Study-Hack
Read the post for more details and helpful links!
So my anxiety has really come to a peak this last semester, and I’ve found it really hard to focus on my schoolwork, as well as motivate myself to get it done or even start in the first place. The overwhelming feeling you can get when you look at that blank word document, or that huge textbook you still have to rifle through can be really scary. I’ve developed a few little strategies over the past couple of months that really help me, so I thought I’d share them here with all of you!
1. Step away. Like I said, simply staring at that blank word document willing your essay to materialize while you sit and agonize over it can be a hard hurdle to overcome. So, instead, just walk away from the situation. Go make a cup of tea or a snack, watch a couple (just a couple!) of your favorite YouTube videos, or anything that calms you down and removes you from the stress just for a little while. (My personal favorite is to paint my nails — it’s a precise sort of doing, so it really calms me down, and it’s perfect if you’re reading or typing; neither of those activities will mess up your manicure!)
2. It will get done. Yes, you’re really freaking out over this assignment because it’s huge and it’s due tomorrow and you should have started working earlier and so on and so forth – but it must be done, so it will be done. Once you realize that it’s gonna get done, regardless of how late you’ll have to stay up or maybe how it won’t be your best work ever or any other factors, it becomes a much less daunting task. Simply acknowledging the do-ability and temporariness of the assignment makes it much easier to tackle, and makes it less behemoth-like.
3. You cannot fail. You are bright and brilliant and incredible. Failure is an impossibility. Even if that score on your last test/paper/etc tells you otherwise, you cannot fail. You are more than willing to put all your focus and energy into this assignment, and because of that, you will be okay. You are putting as much of yourself as you can forward into working on this, and that is all you can expect of yourself.
4. Choose excitement. You get to learn something new! How awesome is that! Whether it’s your favorite or most despised subject, any assignment can seem lame and trying. Try to change your perspective to get you a little excited about the work! Writing an 8 page paper about the history of tea or studying anatomy for 4 hours can become a lot more bearable if you put forth the energy to like your work. Think of Sisyphus, pushing that boulder up that hill for all eternity: you have no choice in whether or not to do this thing, so you might as well enjoy yourself!
4. Break it down. If you’re like me, and you spend weeks and weeks thinking and thinking about a paper while not actually writing anything down until the day before it’s due, assignments get scary real quick. Figure out how you work, and break down your work for the day accordingly. For instance, for my Honors paper that I have due tomorrow, I’m tackling it as such: 1) Word vomit. Write everything I know on the subject right now; don’t worry about sentence structure, prose, flow, anything. Just write it down. 2) Refine. Start picking through the what you just threw down on the page; realize what actually sounds really good, and what can be nixed. Let the good bits inspire you to write even more good bits! 3) Collect outside sources. I need just a minimum of 2 outsides sources for my paper, so now I go and find ones that support my argument, and quickly skim the abstracts and first couple of pages for little nuggets of gold to incorporate into my work. 4) Take a break, and then repeat. Staring at one paper for a long time will make me go cross-eyed, so I step away, watch an episode of Friends or stare at gifs of Harry Styles for a while, and then come back and reassess what I’ve done. It gives me a fresh perspective.
5. Have a good study playlist. My favorite tunes to work to are usually acoustic (or classical if I’m reading, so there’s no lyrics to mess with what my eyes are seeing) — they give me good, calming vibes, with just enough of a beat and rhythm to keep me working. These are some of my favorite 8tracks playlists: x, x, x, x; and then some of my favorites on Spotify: x, x, x. Again, if you jive to really intense tunes, or more ambient stuff, find a good playlist and get in a groove!
5b. Remove distractions. I love Self Control (free!) for my Mac — it lets you put in all your distracting websites, set a timer, and for that length of time, it will not let you access them, no matter what. Even if you restart your computer! I also like using Forest ($0.99) for my phone — watching the little tree grow and letting your forest build is really satisfying, and it really deters you from touching your smartphone.
6. Find your zen element, and keep it near by. Find something that calms you down almost instantaneously, and is easily accessible during your studies. For me, this is a cup of tea. Walking into my kitchen, boiling the water, measuring the honey, pouring the water into my favorite mug, and then just holding said mug - the whole entire ritual is instantly calming for me. And when I have my mug next to my workspace, I can just reach over and close my eyes and take a sip whenever I feel that overwhelming thing start creeping up.
7. You are brilliant, regardless. At the end of the day, it is just one assignment. It will not dictate your life or your worth or anything else. Yes, work your hardest and do your best, as you should in everything in life, but remember that your precious mind and heart are more important than any silly school assignment. Take care of your excellent self so that you can continue your excellency, to infinity and beyond.
I really hope this helps; you are all so wonderful, and I wish you the best of luck with whatever you’re working on! You got this! If you have any questions or comments, feel free to ask. xoxo
- Cheyenne
