Study time with a friend! Yay!

We did get distracted quite often but what else would you expect from kids who stayed locked inside until now, studying and having mental breakdowns downs because of the bac exam in a week?

Still, it was fun, 10/10 would do again.

History Words #1

Filiation

NOUN; the manner in which a thing is related to another from which it is derived or descended in some respect.

“Where the historian of ideas traces the filiation of formal though from philosopher to philosopher, the ethnographic historian studies the way ordinary people made sense of the world.”

(Darnton, Robert.  The Great Cat Massacre: and Other Episodes in French Cultural History.  Perseus Books Group, 2009.  pp. 3.)

[15/01/2018] life has been crazy lately. I passed all my exams so far, fell in love and I have never felt better. Right now I’m back at my parents for a few days to relax and study a bit. Hope you’re all doing great! x

Glomerulonephritis.

Glomerulonephritis (GN), also known as glomerular nephritis, is a term used to refer to several kidney diseases (usually affecting both kidneys). Many of the diseases are characterised by inflammation either of the glomeruli or of the small blood vessels in the kidneys, hence the name, but not all diseases necessarily have an inflammatory component.

As it is not strictly a single disease, its presentation depends on the specific disease entity: it may present with isolated hematuria and/or proteinuria (blood or protein in the urine); or as a nephrotic syndrome, a nephritic syndrome, acute kidney injury, or chronic kidney disease.

They are categorized into several different pathological patterns, which are broadly grouped into non-proliferative or proliferative types. Diagnosing the pattern of GN is important because the outcome and treatment differs in different types. Primary causes are intrinsic to the kidney. Secondary causes are associated with certain infections (bacterial, viral or parasitic pathogens), drugs, systemic disorders (SLE, vasculitis), or diabetes.

W.2 - Take a picture of the pens/highlighters that you could not live without.

The Muji 0.7 refillable pen (hexagonal aluminium) is one of my best stationery related purchase.

W.4 - What is your biggest tip for staying focused?

In my case, I found more helpfull, whenever I can, to scheadule the tasks to a moment in the day when I found them easier to be done, in order to not avoide them so much or get distracted easily. If this happens anyways, Forest is your friend to block you phone and Stay Focused is a good option to block webs. 

Other option is to give a specific time for each task. At first I thought it would give me more anxiety, but it ended up on finishing them on time an avoiding me from get so easily distracted. 

If not, you can always set a timer an work stright until the time is up. The pomodoro method can be a good option. For me, lately, the 50min pomodoro sessions have been saving my study days.
