Do you have any study tips? Specifically for when you have an exam in a few days (since I'm an idiot for leaving studying this late lol)

hi anon! i’d love to share some tips

disclaimer: what works for one person may not work for everyone. effective study methods vary depending on the subject, the format of the exam, personal preference, etc. the best type of studying is always the one that works for you (studying ‘ineffectively’ is always better than not studying at all!)

that said! my tips

1. sleep sufficiently. this is soso important for memory. do not pull an all-nighter before the exam. do not.

2. know what you know and what you don’t know. familiarize yourself with the exam outline, reread your lecture notes. do a quick review on material you’re confident about, focus the brunt of your studying on what you don’t know perfectly

3. make to-do lists to motivate yourself. make a list of every concept you need to study, and check them off as you do so so you can see tangible progress

4. here’s the method i tend follow for the week or so before an exam:

- reread all notes taken. always always clarify anything you don’t understand. look for help in your textbooks, ask your classmates, or your prof

- identify areas you don’t remember perfectly and rewrite your notes on those. do NOT rewrite word-for-word. synthesize important points. do this a few times until you know the material

- study a topic for ~30 minutes, then study another for the same amount of time. then, check if you still remember what you studied 30mins ago. the next day, check again. make sure you’re actually recalling what you’ve studied

- use a combination of collaborative and individual study. i aim for 90% individual study and 10% collaborative study before an exam. when with others, quiz one another, and try verbally recalling material

- study the most material about a week before the exam. then restudy parts for the next few days. 3 days before the exam, revise everything. 2 days before the exam, study as much as you can of what you’re not completely confident on. the day before, review everything you know well to build confidence. don’t leave everything to the night before!

5. romanticize the heck out of it! i like to get sushi and study in the library. a change of environment and novelty can boost memory

good luck anon!! if you’ve been focused throughout the semester, i’m sure you’ll do well

Bina!! I’m trying to finish this piece for a friend but something’s off with Lance’s proportions and I can’t get it right! My art teacher suggests making his head bigger but I’m too proud of getting Lance’s facial features even remotely close to erase that and start over, I know his design is more on the slim and gangly but I think it’s too much! Also, elbows? What are those?!?? Can you offer any tips? Suggestions?? I don’t know how to fix this and you’re the only one I could think of to come to for help!!

hey!!! yeah i can try to help! just keep in mind I am still learning anatomy, so there’s a lot of stuff I still don’t know either! I’ll try to draw over your copy and see what I can figure out..

ok so i think the biggest thing is to lengthen his neck and give him some wider shoulders! i know exactly how you feel when you draw a really nice expression and don’t wanna change it.. and i love that lance expression a lot..!! it’s so… him🥰 

oh and his left arm might need to bend up a bit? that part gave me some trouble.. maybe tilting the hat down more? but yeah that face is TIGHTTTT i hope this helps you finish your drawing!!! and please show me if you do!!

also i just love all the personality in this pose… AGAIN, IT IS SO HIM LMAO 😭👌 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌

[ JUNO ALBRIGHT. 23. CISFEMALE. SHE/HER ] is here! They’ve lived in Silver Lake for [ 6 MONTHS ] and are originally from [ KENOSHA, WISCONSIN ]. They are a [ BARTENDER AT CAROUSEL/SELLER ON ETSY ] and in their downtime love [ MAKING JEWELRY ] and [ BINGE WATCHING THE GREAT BRITISH BAKING SHOW ]. They look a lot like [ KRISTINE FROSETH ] and live [ IN OASIS APTS  ]. 

hi friends it’s me it’s dia and as usual i have nothing of substance to say except that juno is 600x more lowkey than matt or faith yeghsdujka but come hmu for plots if u want or give this a like 💜

full name: juno heather albright nickname(s): june bug (her parents) birthday: october 13, 1997 zodiac: libra hometown: kenosha, wisconsin sexuality: demisexual height: 5′5″ career: bartender at carousel & sells jewelry and art on etsy

juno grew up in kenosha, wisconsin. big midwestern energy. it was always a little too close to hicksville for her taste but she has a special place in her heart for that weird specific wisconsin vibe and u can definitely like….tell she’s not from LA sometimes fwykeurgahld catch her criticizing cheese ruthlessly and getting cravings for beef jerky that she claims isn’t satisfied by “california jerky”

she got her bfa at the university of wisconsin-madison really just bc she wasn’t quite sure what she wanted to do after high school and that’s….what people do gfydhs but by the time she graduated she’d already been making and selling jewelry on etsy for a couple years and knew that she didn’t really want a career, she just wanted to chill in warm weather and make a comfortable living selling her jewelry and other random art. so with a little bit of help from her parents financially (and using almost all of her savings) she moved to LA just a few months after graduation, where she found a job bartending at carousel to supplement the money she makes selling on etsy

her childhood was super ordinary. she’s the middle child of the family with an older sister and a younger brother, both of which still live in kenosha. her sister was a Difficult Teenager so their parents were dealing with that most of the time when they were kids, making juno’s very mild emo phase (inspired by her sister and included dyeing a single blue stripe in her hair and wearing extremely small gauges) literally the least of their parents worries. her little brother was also pretty mild and kind of nerdy, and he and juno would just sort of uncomfortably watch things go down with their parents and their older sister for years

her parents stayed together for much longer than they should have “for the kids”, which resulted in a ton of fighting and hardcore contributed to juno’s sister acting out a lot and fighting with their parents. they finally got divorced when juno was 15, which made pretty much her whole sophomore year of high school really difficult in a lot of ways but wound up being very good for everyone’s mental health in the end. her dad remarried and her parents are super civil with each other and they do holidays as a family and everything

her sister is married now with two kids and juno is obsessed with them

she’s an extremely lowkey individual, really just wants to hang out, go on hikes in the mountains, make her jewelry, hoard scented soap, and complain about how bad pizza is in california

definitely an introvert in that she needs to have her alone time to recharge and fully enjoys days spent indoors watching netflix, but she’s usually p much down to do anything and very much enjoys her job working at a bar

lives in a two bedroom apartment with a roommate (wc!!) and fills it with plants. is usually burning incense and other herbs just bc she likes the smell and aesthetic

loves camping, will spend entire days on the beach, always has horrible tan lines, makes her own perfumes by blending essential oils, unironically loves rainforest cafe, theoretically likes yoga but rarely does it, has a huge sea glass collection from back home that fills like 5 or 6 big vases, takes animal crossing too seriously, has cried at a lana del rey concert, smokes weed but will get anxious and have to stop if she gets too high, has been known to use scrunchies

usual outfits include sundresses, jeans, graphic tees, graphic socks, thrift sweaters, mid 2000s energy platform shoes, 90s stretch chokers

she has a german shepherd corgi mix named bowie that she is in love with and generally is obsessed with animals

absolutely under no circumstances will date someone unless she is head over heels in love bc she has no time for that

has a huge amount of common sense and is super rational about things but making decisions gives her anxiety even when she KNOWS what she should do so she can get crabby and snap at people if she’s struggling with a big life decision
