#student mood

me in class: silent me in my head: full debate tournament

[chaotic-historian]

Me, a poor student, when research literature quotes German and French sources without translating any of them:

[massiveshoecloudneck]

i do this really fun thing where i drink way too much caffeine because i don’t sleep enough and then i need to take breaks from studying to breathe every hour or so

Slytherin Student P. II

- creating a new study space in your living room 

-always surrounded by pillows 

-whiteboard with several ideas propped up near you 

-deciding to do your religion project on witches in history 

-black tea

-classical music playing softly 

-constantly reminding yourself that Slytherins are ambitious

-feeling the pressure of school and expectations 

-even though people look up to you, you’re always wondering if you’re actually good enough

-reminding yourself of your goals 

-the sound of your typing for hours

study moods for Hogwarts classes

defense against the dark arts: an ominous skeleton hanging overhead in the classroom, decorating notebooks with DADA stickers, escaped pixies, patronus frustration, old scrolls rolled up with feathered quills in ink

potions: summoning fog from a cauldron, forgetting which vial has which ingredient, forgetting bottles in the common room, dusting off your ancient textbook, stuffy lab stations with bubbling brews

astronomy: enormous planet charts, plotting constellations in a notebook, galaxy paintings, stargazing on a clear night, practicing makeup that looks like glittering stars

herbology: being protective over ancient botanical illustrations, the scent of dried herbs and flowers, finally drawing examined specimens perfectly, doodling on jar labels, collecting herbs in a leather satchel

alchemy: having no space in your bag for supplies, lining up the numerous textbooks on your desk, decluttering the workspace for a project, bleeding colors from a concoction, labeling skulls and bones

ancient runes: admiring the decorated textbook cover, piling up the shining stones, carving ancient symbols into old driftwood, charting codes and lunar cycles, mysterious alphabets, groaning at using so many different dictionaries

divination: a sparkling crystal ball, giggling while reading tarot, struggling to pull off a difficult card trick, studying black crystals, trying to burn herbs with a tiny candle, second-guessing the symbol chart that you’ve made

muggle studies: art history notes, buying a brand new notebook, chipping the edge of your wand, enjoying Muggle music, coffee with the newspaper, the flash of a polaroid camera, gel pens to doodle on pages

care of magical creatures: dragons in the air, visiting Hagrid’s hut, letting it slip that you love bowtruckles, photographing a unicorn for the aesthetic, hiding a niffler in the commonroom, not as easy a class as you thought it’d be

charms: taking your time to pick books from the library, making extra enchantments, getting to class first to be alone, remembering all of your supplies, charming a golden snitch with your friends, making the reading corner as comfy as possible, enchanted talismans around your neck

That flashback in the episode Tak: the Hideous New Girl has such a strong student mood.

Zim goes to extreme lengths to get the snack he paid for out of the stuck vending machine. (Mood: broke student refusing to let his money go to waste).

Tsk begs the Control Brain to let her take a test she is 100% prepared for and only missed due to circumstances outside her control. (Mood: dealing with an unreasonable professor on a power trip.)

Blink with the lower half of you face.

Reading week is never long enough.

[evevoli]

when the teacher says pick a partner and youre waiting for someone to ask you because you dont want to bother anyone but no one ever comes and the teacher has to pair you with the other unpopular kid

bonus points if you have friends in that class
