i’ve been trying to start my day off with reading recently. december mornings are my favourite things in the world, they’re like a little time capsule sometimes, you can forget whatever else is going on for one or two hours in an empty house.

5/7 exams and all I can think about is going home as soon as the last one's done

these are the five browser extensions (that aren’t momentum) i use the most as a university student! if anyone has recommendations for any other extensions, please drop them below :)

my problematic trait is writing down every single pretty line i read anywhere

I’m nearing the end of high school, and I thought it’d be useful to share a step-by-step guide on how I’ve studied for the past few years.

Some disclaimers/clarifications

This doesn’t completely apply to Math-heavy subjects; I’ll write something about that soon, though!

Don’t take everything here as #Gospel Truth. At most, these are suggestions. Compare my framework to yours, and see how you can stitch mine up to improve yours.

Some tips:

AVOID MAKING A STUDY TIMETABLE AHEAD OF TIME. I cannot stress this enough. Decide for yourself on the day which lessons you’re going to focus on. Your past self cannot predict how good your future comprehension will be of certain lessons. Only your present self will. Watch Ali Abdaal’s video for a far more articulate argument.

REREADING YOUR NOTES TO MEMORIZE IS INEFFICIENT. Test. Yourself. Make flashcards. Teach someone else your lessons. Make a brain dump. Challenge your brain to vomit out the lesson instead of passively ingesting your notes.

CLEAR NOTES > PRETTY NOTES.

The rest of the process is under the cut!

“We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.”
