bullet journal | leuchtturm1917 dupe (from amazon)

hi everyone!! i’ve been really busy with uni and work but i know 2019 means a fresh start, this past few months i didn’t really use my bullet journal so i’m so excited for this new year since it is one of my resolutions to be more organized and work on my planning. so i wanted to share the bullet journal i’m gonna be using which i found on amazon and is a dupe for the leuchtturm1917 who i’ve used before, but didn’t feel like spending that much considering how much i actually used it, so it might be useful for some of you as well. the differences i can see it’s that the leuchtturm was a tiny bit wider (like 1cm) but this one is a bit longer (not even 1cm) but this one has 120g paper, which is the main reason why i like it more than the leuchtturm one! so i’d totally prefer this one, plus it comes in a 2-pack and it’s less than 12€ (for measures and more you can check on amazon)

i now have my all time favourite black pen!!! for me, my handwritting is always changing depending on what pen i’m using, so I think it’s very important to find one you truly love. it’s the pilot g-tec-c4 and it’s a 0.4 black gel ink, i looked it up on amazon and you get a pack of three for less than 8 euros!!! so it’s also really great price!!! also, the text are my uni subjects, today started my second semester, and i’m loving it so far. would you guys like me to talk about my degree a bit more? let me know!!! love you all loads x

Hardest decision of my life: Dropping out of uni

So... If you’ve been following me for a while you’ll know this first year of uni was not what I was hoping for, at all. I did not feel comfortable with the few girls I would hang out (not because they weren’t nice, just cause we were really different people) and most importantly, I did not like any of my classes. I was not motivated, and I would skip pretty much all classes, which then made my grades go down. 

I worked so hard on high school just so that I would have good grades and would get into the uni I’ve always wanted. And I did. I was so excited and thought everything would be amazing and just how I had pictured it all in my head. But it was not. I would have to wake up at 5.30 am, get ready, spend an hour on a train, and just to do a few hours of class that I would not enjoy. I would be at university from 8 until 2 and I would not eat anything until I’d arrive home at 4. That made me feel very tired all day long, and that’s when I started having serious health issues. I lost my period and my body started to collapse. I was feeling so sad and depressed I would skip classes and then would feel even worst. I failed a couple of exams (bare in mind I had never failed anything, my grades in high school would never be below an 8/10) and all my grades were around 6-7 out of 10. I felt stupid and didn’t want to go anymore.

A couple of months ago I decided to apply for another degree, which I liked a lot more and had assignments I was more interested in. For the first time in a really long time I could see things going better. I’m not sure you all know how the education system works in Spain, but basically I had to apply to that degree with the grade I got when I did my exams last year. Little did I know the exams that the students had to make to get into university this year were a lot easier than the ones from the year before (which were the ones I did). What does that mean? If a degree has 80 vacant places, only the 80 students with the better grades in the exam get in. This is what we call the “cut-off mark”. My grade was of 11,2 (out of 14) and the last person who got in had an 11,37. Which meant I was out. 

When I got notified I didn’t get into that degree, I collapsed. I couldn’t stay at university doing something I didn’t like. After a lot of thinking and talking to my parents I decided the best decision for me was to drop out and have a “gap year”. By no means I’m not going to uni anymore, I just need to make sure I am studying what I really want to study. 

This year I’m going to work and study for my IELTS exam because YES, I might be going to the UK to do my undergraduate there, it’s always been a dream and I feel like that’s the path I should be going. It’s obviously a lot of money I need to save up because accommodation is very expensive, but I’m determined to do it. 

Feel free to message me if you are going trough or have been through a similar situation! I will be making more posts cause I feel like this is something we don’t get to see often. We are used to seeing perfect people, studying something they really like and having the time of their lives. But truth is, it doesn’t always work like that! But we all learn from our mistakes, and I hope this is the right thing and everything works out.
