i wish people would stop romanticizing not eating breakfast and not getting enough sleep and being dependent on coffee to function and always being in a bad mood and treating yourself poorly because that behavior is very unhealthy for you

[cottoncoast]

especially amongst students it seems to be a competition on who had the least amount of sleep or ate the least or didnt do their work. stop it!!! go to bed and eat breakfast!!!! seriously it isnt cute please be nice to yourself

🔥WHAT IS HAPPENING TO AUSTRALIA??🔥

- 500 MILLION hectares burnt (compared to the 1 million of the California bushfires, & 500 thousand of the Amazon one). That’s more than the size of Belgium!

- 19 people dead and 12 missing (as of today), hundreds upon hundreds of homes have been destroyed. Many people are living in shelters right now because they have nowhere to go.

- 480 MILLION animals dead including rare species of wildlife (koalas are now back on the critically endangered list). Wildlife hospitals are at CAPACITY.

- Our capital city has now been labelled as the WORST air quality city in the world. Smoke fills the air, their post offices are shut until further notice. Businesses in major cities in the country are sending their workers home. Major highways keep closing then opening then closing down again.

- The smoke & flames are engulfing so much of the country that you can SEE IT FROM SPACE. The temperature in NSW has just hit a high of 48*C (118*F) this week. The smoke is now also so large that it is affecting the air quality all the way over in New Zealand!!!

- The Australian Navy have just rescued people who had been fleeing on boats to the oceans to get away from the fires (this is an all time record of people rescued on home-soil by the Navy). The army has also been deployed to help.

- Many cities & towns now have no internet, electricity, or any sort of power. Petrol stations are closing down which means no fuel.

- So many rural communities all over the country have also been suffering from one of the top most intense droughts recorded. This started just before all of the fires.

- People are buying equipment for our Firefighters because they can’t keep up with demand (due to our government cutting their funding!!!). Many Aussies are angry with our Prime Minister, who keeps deflecting questions on climate change and saying ‘let’s rally together’ without actually specifying what he is going to do for the future of Australia now that it is all burning up.

- The harbour bridge and opera house are completely covered in smoke. Ash covers car windows. People are being evacuated all over the country. Some people are staying to protect their homes... The air quality in SYDNEY is equal to smoking 30 cigarettes every time you take a breath. And there’s so much more that’s happening that I couldn’t fit.

- Australia now holds the record of the ‘largest fires in recorded history in the world’, and hardly anyone seems to be paying attention. WE NEED YOUR HELP. When the Amazon was burning, when the Notre Dame was burning, when California was burning you all screamed for someone to do something. We’re begging for help and no one will hear us. PLEASE SHARE WHAT IS HAPPENING. #AustraliaOnFire

things i learned this semester

Sleep is RIDICULOUSLY helpful. I set myself a bedtime and forced myself to stick to it (or at least be close to it) until it became natural. Being awake and alert improves your ability to do well in class like you can’t believe. I heard this advice before but I finally believe it and I’m in love.

Prioritizing > perfectionism. This was really hard for me as someone who grew up as one of the “Smart Kids” who felt a ridiculous amount of pressure to always get A’s in everything. This year, I wrote down all of my obligations and ranked them in order of importance to me. When time got crunched, I had a preset guideline for what to let fall more to the side (i.e. gen eds < practicing my music, an exam of info i don’t need memorized in the long run < my mental health). For once, I was proud that I had some grades go down because it meant I was following my long-term goals much more!

Study buddies really help. If you find the right person, having them in the room increases the pressure to not be lazy just enough to keep you on track (at least for me). I found that study with me videos on YouTube got me more motivated, too, even though it’s just a virtual study buddy.

Use the Pomodoro method, and have a little piece of paper or something on hand. Use that paper to write down any “You should do this before you forget!!” or “I just remembered to check this out!” thoughts that pop up in your head, and save them for the break. Normally I would get distracted by all those things, but this method worked wonders for me. Using study with me videos that follow the Pomodoro method was amazing.

Brutally Honest Rules for Language Learners

If you can`t make your own examples to a grammar rule, you don`t know this grammar rule.

Learning words without context is almost useless. You may repeat something like “road” or “deeply” millions of times and still forgetting them in the most important situations. Memorize phrases instead. e. g. “I crossed the road” and “to be deeply ashamed”.

Prioritize. There are almost 500 000 words in the English language and even more in some non-European languages. If you decide to learn 5 words a day, you`ll need a shitload of time to cover at least the third of the whole vocabulary. So, know precisely what words are the most frequent and the most important for you personally.

No, you won`t learn a language by listening to songs ONLY.

If your level of knowledge is Intermediate or higher, you don`t need the fucking subtitles. Well, in the beginning, you will have a terrible headache and doubts about the whole thing, but every video will be making you a little better. You`ll slowly get used to the accents and intonation. It`ll stop to sound like the endless phrase without any pauses. Just give yourself some time.

Translation from the native language to the target language is useless (if you`re not going to become an interpreter). Write the short texts in your target language instead.

Forget about boring topics from the textbooks. Argue with somebody in the comment section under your fav YouTube videos. Try to persuade me that the Earth is flat (I know it`s insane, but you`ll remember it much better than writing the essay “The current problems of ecology”). Rewrite your own posts. Write down 15 phrases do describe Donald Trump. I mean… Everything is better than a standard way of learning that doesn`t express your inner self. 

Check the pronunciation of ALL the words. ALL the time. Your intuition is a great tool. However, it doesn`t cure all the irregular cases. Just look at English words “daughter” and “laughter”, “head” and “heat”, “though” and “thought”. They look almost similar but they sound in ABSOLUTELY different ways. There`s a possibility that your target language also has a lot of such cases. Just spend few seconds on looking at the transcriptions. It doesn`t hurt, I promise.

The post/challenge for those who want to find a language partner.

how to study as a busy student

i personally go through this a lot because i have to balance saturday band, honor band, auditions, performances, history club, national history day with school and nonexistant friends. so here u go, friend!! this is my advice to keep up with your (busy) studying!! ha see what i did there im so funny

1. have a planning system. this is a no-brainer. but honestly you’re going to need something to help you keep track of all your deadlines AND your afterschool activities. it doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy; heck it can even be on your phone. but make sure you’re keeping track of everything.

2. use all the time you can to do your homework. if you’re really behind or you have a lot of homework and not enough time to do it at home, do your homework when you can during school. this does NOT mean trying to set the world record for fastest writer while your teacher is collecting the homework. this means on the bus, waiting for your food/the bus/your friends, those down periods during and between classes, during sports practice, and even during lunch. however do NOT make a habit of this!! i get that its a lot, but please still try to have a life!!!

3. set aside a day a week to solely catch up on school work, and another day just to relax. i usually have saturday as my school work day and sunday as my day to relax and prepare for the week. this may seem contradictory, seeing as you may have sports practice or rehearsal on saturday or something. but think of it this way: you’re already going to be working your butt off that day. you might as well keep that flow going and get all your school work together and catch up on any missing assignments. you can also use that sunday off as your motivation to work hard because youre being rewarded with a completely free day.

4. do your homework on friday. please. just do it. this kind of follows the same concept as above: you have school that day anyways, so keep working your hardest. now, if you have no friends like me, this’ll be easy. but if you have plans on fridays (which you should, seriously, go out), stop working 1-2 hours before you have to go somewhere. you can continue any work you havent completed on your catch-up day.

5. drop one or two things. this sounds really painful!!! but being in a lot of extracurriculars and having a nice application/resume is not as nice as your mental health. not being able to balance too many things at once will stress you out and make you sick. like, i used to be in drama club and i also had piano class on wednesdays. once i got older, i realized that these things looked nice on my honor society application, but i didnt have time for what really mattered. (plus i didn’t rly like them anyways.) if you can work your way around it, fine. but otherwise, keep the things close to your heart and drop what you absolutely don’t have time for.

6. if worst comes to worst, talk to your teachers. they will understand, if you’re struggling to be a well-rounded student and keep up your grades at the same time. this doesn’t mean lie or use your teachers as an easy way out. but rather, if everything becomes too overwhelming, talk to someone.

i really hope that helped @ the original anon who asked me this question! sorry this was so late! i’m quite the busy student myself hahaha

Fast-guide to studying 20+ chapters in a week

I am currently in this situation. So I’ve come up with a plan and thought I might as well share it with all of you too:

1. Most importantly, write an introduction. Why would you have to bother with an introduction? Because in the introduction you can explain the reason WHY what you’re studying is important. When you know why you’re doing it, you’re gonna see why it is important and you’ll feel like what you’re doing makes sense. Once you know this, it surely will be easier to learn because you’ll know what the goal is of the method/ subject you’re studying.

2. In case of emergency: learn the tips. Some professors give tips. Learn those first. It’s gonna save your ass, I guarantee you. It has saved me. If there are lots of tips, learn the ones that you know will count the most first.

3. Check those powerpoints. See I wrote ‘check’ and not learn from the powerpoints? It’s because you can learn from the powerpoints and not understand a shit about it. The powerpoints will serve as a guide for you to go check what you have to learn from the book. Learn from the book instead, because it follows a very systematic approach with an example. This way you avoid learning the entire book but still learn the important aspects discussed in the class.

4. Write a summary based on subject-definition-application-example. This is definitely a life-saver, I’ve talked many times about the systematical approach books have. And this is it. They introduce you a subject, they explain it to you, give you a model for you put it in practice and then they give you an example. At least I’m sure it is so in STEM and Business. I like to do a table like this below.

So in summary, write an introduction so you know why you’re learning. Secondly, start with the tips, this will guarantee you a higher score. If you finish on time go check the powerpoints to see the highlights of the class and search to learn the broader explanations of the book.

Everyone on midterms and exams, GOOD LUCK!!!
