#imperfect studyblr

studyblr intro and goals 🍁  

hello everyone, my name’s connor and i’m a second year in pharmaceutical science. i started this studyblr up a short while ago but have only used it for reblogging up until this point. i'd like to start posting some of my own content, hopefully to motivate me as i start this year of uni.

about me:

connor

i’m 19 y/o

i live in australia (hence why the uni year is just starting for me)

infp

interests:

i love learning instruments; i used to play violin, i’m self-teaching piano and i just booked my first drum lesson (very excited!!)

i also love crafting; scrap booking is fun though i don’t do it often, and each year i make xmas cards for my family

fave subject: physiology; while my course is heavily chemistry based, i love learning about how the human body works, so fascinating !

study music: if i’m in the mood for music, lofi hip hop beats all the way

why a studyblr?

i’m hoping this will help keep me motivated throughout the year by adding an element of accountability; i’d like to do a ‘100 days of productivity’ challenge

to keep things realistic for myself i won’t be going out of my way to make super neat, aesthetically pleasing notes; as long as they’re notes, then that’s what counts <3

i’ll also continue to reblog various academia themed things on here, so i can continue to live my aesthetic life vicariously through this blog hehe

some studyblr/academia blogs that i enjoy:

Some Realities about Self-Care

8 Feburary 2020, 7:16pm

I do cardio classes four times a week.

I sleep for eight hours a night.

I drink water like a fish.

I have a productivity plan and an accountability app that helps me stay on track.

But....

Do I always feel good? No.

Am I sleeping well? Not always.

Do I still procrastinate? Yes.

Do I still have deadlines coming up that I’m not ready for? Yes. I actually just past one so I’m turning in a paper late.

Do I still feel inadequate as a graduate student? Yes.

All that being said.....

I know I’m doing my best to stay healthy and become a better future historian.

Introduction

Hi! My name is Ashley and I wanted to create a studyblr of sorts to meet other people like me and post some of my own stuff. I want to connect to people like me who struggle to be productive and are imperfect but still try everyday.

About Me: Ashley, from CA, c/o 2020, poli sci & soc double major,  INFP-T (but every time I take this test I get something different INFJ-T, INTJ-T)

Interests:

I love stories in all forms - tv, movies, books, anime, comics, Korean dramas, etc. - I’m a total fangirl and my main page is where I talk about the stuff I’m watching/am into at the moment (@bloomlefey)

Favorite band is P!ATD

I love school supplies and bullet journaling (since I’m not very artistically talented, bullet journaling let’s be creative and doodle without too much pressure to make things perfect)

What You’ll Find:

Original posts about my life as a student and trying to keep myself accountable, bullet journal spreads, books, and other academia/student related things

Reblogs of other academia and studyblr themed things to keep me motivated

This assignment is apparently "easy" according to all the tutors... I beg to differ. Maybe assessing pupil progress *is* easy, when you've got years of classroom experience behind you! I'm finding it really hard, and I'm probably still adjusting to being back at uni.

011/100 days of productivity

digesting some jelly while studying the digestive system. watched some physiology lectures today, and did some detective work on where my friends calculations went wrong for the group project. man, group work online is so much extra work..

001/100 days of productivity

decided to start my 100 days of productivity challenge. i completed an online workshop today (despite not being able to contact half my group) and discovered that adding noodles and a cooked egg to miso soup makes for a perfect snack to eat while watching lectures. can’t wait to be back on campus :)

006/100 days of productivity

all my classes today and for the rest of the week have been cancelled while my uni works out transferring to online classes. we’re moving online because of covid-19 and new social distancing rules. i’m pretty bummed out about it tbh, i only got to enjoy one day on campus.

since my classes were cancelled, i did some house jobs, laundry and such. practiced a bit of piano as well. spent the afternoon watching netflix with my cat, it was a pretty chill day without any class work.

012/100 days of productivity

my desk is a heckin mess right now and i’m falling behind on course work, ah.

i watched some of my organic chemistry lectures (i have a workshop for it tomorrow morning) and there’s so much to learn. i swear as soon as i think i’ve learnt all the details about one topic, we just delve even deeper and there’s more i have to wrap my head around.

on the plus side, the way organic chemists name things is keeping me entertained. “that look’s like a chair”: chair conformation, “these bonds are bent, like a banana”: banana bonds, “this conformation is boat shaped”: boat conformation, “this one is like a twisted version of the boat shape”: twisted boat conformation, “what technical name shall we give this squiggly looking line in the skeletal structure”: how about squiggly line ?
