study diary —

Today I met with my research group for four hours as we made final revisions to our paper. It’s incredibly exciting to think that, if accepted, I may soon have my first academic publication.

Tomorrow will be back to business as usual - it’s time to begin preparations for my final exams.

I woke up late, whooops, but was able to get going much more quickly than usual thanks to the extra snoozing minutes. I have a 2-to-1 rule for water, so any time I drink a cup of coffee, I first have to drink two glasses of water. I had a lot of water today...

I was not excited to work on my Calc 3 homework because it kicked my butt last night, but I was able to fly through today's problem set without much trouble. I knocked everything off of my docket that I had planned - including the dreaded lab report, and also updated my CV to include my presentation last week.

Even though it was gloomy and cold outside, crossing everything off of my to-do list made me feel warm.

Active v Passive studying

Highlighting notes are a passive way to study to in addition to doing that on my paper notes, I will rewrite my notes in language that is easy for me to understand. I think how would I explain this to someone else in simple terms and go from there.

Couldn’t sleep at all tonight so I decided to plan out my week as best as I could. Not all of my professors have updated their canvas classes yet so I’m still in the dark about the expectations for this semester. All I can do is hope for the best.
