I successfully passed the first (and, according to my professor, hardest) part of Angewandte Geometrie. I am very motivated to get the second part done much quicker.

During this exam, I again bore witness to a salesperson calling my professor's office to sell wine to another professor, who died in 2012 but used to order wine from this company. I can't believe it happened again. Who sells someone wine at work?

Studyblr (Re) Introduction - Has it really been 5 years!?

Old -> New

Hello, I'm Euan, and I have 37 days to save my university degree!

It's a long story, but today I find myself a month away from my final-year university exams and very very behind on my studying. To have any hope of passing my exams and graduating this summer, I need to massively lock in. So, here we are!

I am reviving this studyblr to give myself motivation and accountability to ensure I keep up with the brutal study schedule I have ahead of me. I will be posting daily updates of my progress, and with any luck, I will be crossing that graduation stage come July!

A little about me:

My name is Euan, and I am a 23 year old living and studying in Scotland

I am in my final year of a Bachelor of Science (with Honours) degree in Medicinal Chemistry

I have a full-time job alongside my degree (who thought that was a good idea??)

I am autistic and have the same executive functioning skills as a boiled carrot (so, none at all!), which makes studying quite difficult for me!

I have finished my final-year research project; all I have left to complete my degree and graduate is three modules, each with a final exam

🍪 01.04.2026 [study, train and smoothie]

> Woke up super early to take the train for my vacations!!! Actually it's more of an "academic retreat": trying to go somewhere else to study so I have more motivation. Eventually having some days off when I can visit where I am 💚

> Read Bi by Julia Shaw in the train, as interesting as usual

> did a lot today, even tho I had 4 hours of sleep: I'll go to bed early tonight or I won't be able to do anything tomorrow... I have a good feeling about this "break", maybe it won't go as planned but for now I feel great :))

> I'm thinking of going for a walk near the sea, and maybe going to the local library tomorrow, and maybe trying to do a quick run? So many projects

📙 24.03.2026 [reading, MCQs and flashcards]

> reading a knight story, the protagonist is......... uh.... Well, let's say that what's important is that I'm catching up on classics, not how chivalrous the protagonist is..... Right?.... I guess he's starting as a great anti-hero ahaha, hope he gets better....

> I did practice my lessons. I need more and more practice. I need to continue doing it and it'll get easier with time....
