01.11.18: 10/100 days of productivity

continuing with property law today. rereading my notes for this class makes my head hurt, since my professor doesn’t know the words ‘structure’ or ‘speaking clearly and into the microphone’ when giving a lecture. pray for me.

how was everyone’s halloween? 👻

i will be starting college next year as a biochemistry major

i have taken the sorting quiz three times (yikes) and got gryffindor the first time but slytherin the second and third, so i think i’m a slytherin

What to do when you feel like you just can't keep studying

Maybe I'm not the best at this kind of advice, but my friend was struggling and I just had to help her. Thought I would share the advices I gave her:

Take a break!!

Calm down. Push you notes aside and breathe deeply. Breathe a few times. All this worring is not going to take you anywhere. Close your eyes and breathe.  

Write down what you feel 

Take all those things the voices in your head are telling you and lay them all on the paper. Everything. Trust me, you'll feel better once you've drained all that. 

 Take a shower 

Keeping to try to study isn't going to take you anywhere if you're still in the same state. Go and take a shower, a bath. Treat yourself with it. Relax. Let the water wash all that negativity. 

 Prepare a cup of your comfort drink 

Can be tea (like me), can be coffee, can be chocolate, can be even soup. Whatever. Whatever drink makes you feel warm inside, just make a cup of it and drink it slowly. 

 Sit down and set your mind 

Doing all that would be useless if you sit with your notes and start worrying again. Don't think you have too little time to study. Don't think you're not going to make it. Don't think you can't. If you set your mind like that, it would happen. Instead, think you will. You will learn that. You will remember it. You will succeed. Take it easy at first, set your goals and start again.

A new and improved moleskine notebook that I’ll use as a planner/agenda for school - it’s all stuff that I already had at home, my dad uses moleskines for work stuff but only ‘professional coloured’ ones so he gave me this one, washi tape is from ikea I got it a while ago for presents, and I’ve got no clue where that lace stuff is from it was in my mom’s basket of sewing stuff and I stitched it onto the elastic of the notebook

10.7.18

I tried bullet journaling on Microsoft OneNote and this is how my first week of spoopy season was planned (and what didn’t happen)! It’s conveniently called “Bullet Bullet Bullet” because hey Day6. I also am starting to learn French and Mandarin again because why the fuck not.
