Now that we’re about a month into the new year, I find myself losing steam on my resolutions around this time. I thought I’d start a little challenge that is open to anyone to join to help us stay on track and have some fun together! This is the 30-Day New Year Momentum Challenge (#30nym)
What you need to know (but none of this is mandatory to be clear!!):
Open to absolutely anyone, and you can start whenever and post at your own pace
So you can post as often or as little as you want - this is by no means designed to be a 30-days-in-a-row thing (I actually expect this challenge to take up most of my year)
Answer each prompt as a caption to a photo post OR as a standalone prompt (or you can answer a batch of questions as one caption/post, whatever!)
The ultimate goal here is to learn about others’ goals and methods of achieving them + create a teeny little community for our goals
TAG YOUR CHALLENGE POSTS WITH #30NYM and reblog this so more can join/so you can share with the community! Not required at all but this way we can all follow along with each other!!
psst you can also tag em #heyshef if you want me to see them
If this sounds like something you’d be into, prompts are below the cut ↓
done with the first week of school ☁✨
13th of October 2021
I’ve received some marks this past week that I am disappointed in. In response to this, I’ve immediately increased my commitment to each of my classes. I came to university a couple of hours early to work through a recorded business lecture and attend the painful corporate writing class I have a bad habit of skipping.
Any advice for approaching new assessment after receiving undesirable marks is welcome 😊

Working on analyzing my readings as the second step of prep for my presentation.
「 Day 14 of zoomester studyblr challenge - What are some of the reasons you love yourself/should love yourself?」
I don't really like this type of questions, not because there is something wrong with them, but as someone with big insecurities I have tendency to when asked this kind of stuff immediately start thinking of the things that I don't like which isn't the point at all.
Trying to think in a positive way some of the reasons I love myself are the fact that I am a really generous person and I am always ready to help, especially people close to me. I am someone that is very curious and passionate about things and I really appreciate that side of me. I am someone that is ready to learn about anything because I feel that even if I think that I won't use that knowledge, the reality is that I am improving myself.
「 Day 15 of zoomester studyblr challenge - Tag someone who you think would get along just right with you.」
@medustudies It seems like a wonderful person 😊
「 Day 16 of zoomester studyblr challenge - What’s you go-to coffee/tea/beverage order? 」
I am not a coffee or tea girl at all, I only drink ice tea or coffee with milk. I have to say that my go-to drink is water, but if we talk about order is probably pepsi or coca cola zero.
23.02.21 | Our neighbors’ cat is starting to get cozy. Today, I had a very productive co-studying session with @small-french-studyblr and since the professor excluded most of the course, I’m almost back on track! I hope that doesn’t mean the exam will be super weird xD

2021 summer studying challenge update:
july 7th: what did you do during the summer when you were a young child?
summer camp in the mountains used to be a key element of the summer for me! i would go every year and i always looked forward to it so much.
july 8th: what's your happiest summer memory from your childhood?
i don't think i have a specific one, but i'd say memories from camp... or reading endlessly.
july 9th: do you usually go on vacation during the summer?
usually yes, most likely with my family. as me and my siblings grow older it's getting hard for everyone to be free on the same week, but we still try.
july 10th: what is the best vacation you have ever been on?
it might partially be because it's recent, but i'm gonna say last year's summer vacation! it was the first family vacation in a very long time that we spent in the mountains instead of at the beach and i loved it!
just to give y’all a look at how i do my notes! here’s some poli sci lecture notes on the left (more detailed than usual bc i didn’t do the reading and needed to catch up :P) and on the right are some latin class notes, with my actual in class “translations” on post-its, and some doodling declension charts in the margins
