This is the first time I’ve created wallpapers of my own after years of admiring @emmastudies works. I genuinely enjoy the process as well as the outcomes, and without a doubt want to make some more (e.g. phone wallpapers). If you have any suggestions/ requests/ feedback on how I can improve these for you guys, my inbox is always open!
(Also do you guys want me to do asks or post studying tips? I’d love to talk to you more!)
Thank you again for your warm and kind support. If you like and use any of these wallpapers, feel free to tag me! I’d be delighted to see these babies in action 💓

I’m currently working on my final speech for my communications class. My summer has been productive so far, what about yours?
january 21st
started my day with some quiet time, reading Psalms, and having banana chai almond butter oats (that is a mouthful, but a very tasty one) for breakfast. i worked on my Michelangelo paper again and this afternoon i helped my mum at primary school (she's a teacher and i think i might want to become a teacher as well). also had a bit of a chat about recovery etc with my dad tonight, he's awesome
As a student with dyscalculia, I always had difficulties with math.
But since I've taken a scientific high school, has been important to me to find a bulletproof way to study this subject.
I've thought that it would be interesting to share it with you, so there is a guide about studying math, maybe not in an easier way, but surely in a more effective one.
In class
Pay attention to the lesson. Taking notes will help you keep concentrated. Also keep an eye on examples and don't hesitate to ask someone to explain it.
Sometimes teachers asks for a volunteer in order to show the class how do exercises: don't be afraid and offer to do it, so the teacher will understand if you have understand the lesson and will not wait until test for give you a help.
After class
Study each time is an always valid advice, but in math this applies even more. In this way you can better define notions and have more time for exercise on different categories of math problems.
Always take some time for study the theory part from your textbook and notes. Try to have more exercise as possible. At least do assigned homeworks and ask for help when you don't know how to resolve one.
Often textbooks have guide exercises that show how to resolve them, be sure you don't skip them.
Before a test
Some days before a test, try to do more exercises than usual.
The 75%of times it isn't very useful, but it can help you feeling more prepared. So if you don't have time for it, don't worry and don't feel guilty.
If you haven't studied and exercised in a while, trying to catch up all at once will not help. I'm saying this for experience.
General advices
ask for a help from your friends: that's what friends are for!
Consider to take private lessons. Yes, they're expensive, but if you have many shortcomings, they can be the only solution. Personally, I've taken a lot of private lessons and they didn't help me very much. But many of my friends found them useful. So try if you can.
A teacher with an interested class is an happy teacher. Don't be afraid to mess up and remember that there are no "stupid questions"
Never despair. There is always time to improve. Math is that kind of subject that has to be appreciated, otherwise became difficult to find the right motivation to study it.
I hope that you will find this "masterpost" useful, so if you have any questions or think that I've missed something, please send me an ask/message.
Wish you all the best of luck for school!
So I’ve moved to a new studyblr! To those who don’t know me, I’m Maddy and I live in New Zealand 🇳🇿
To kick it off here’s some photos of what my desk normally looks like - at the moment I’m sharing my room with my French exchange student so everything has been moved around :)
Fun fact about me: I’m a classically trainer singer, mezzo-soprano soloist and 1st soprano in choral work. It sounds really snobbish but I really enjoy it!

Tips to get your studies together when you feel like everything it's falling apart
- Take a day off. It's important. You should take a day where you can completely relax: take a bath, do a pampering day or sleep all day but just relax!!! Stay away from books and everything related to your studies and/or job and just RELAX. But only for a day, so the next day you will be able to start again feeling full of energy.
- Clean your room. Go do it. Clean your room, my friend. You will feel better after: throw away all the old clothes, throw away the cutter and organize your room.
- Write down everything you need to do. And when I say everything I mean everything. You know what I'm talking about. You need to write down literally everything you need to do fun related and study related so later you can organize everything.
- Organize everything and keep an eye on your time management skills. Now that you have your pretty and scary list of all the things you need to do, you have to organize everything in order to be able to do it. Studying of course should come first so I highly recommend to start organizing everything according to your studies. So you have to prioritize. Organize seriously everything. You need to get a paper and write down when to wake up, when to get dressed and when to start to study ecc … ORGANIZE EVERYTHING even your study breaks. Time-management is very important and it's impossible to get your shit together without that.
- Find a good environment. It can be your local library, it can be your room, it can be a cute or a normal café, just find a place where you can wear comfortable clothes, with pretty bathrooms (seriously who wants to go in a place with horrible bathrooms) and nice people. Or nobody. It's up to you.
- Dress accordingly. Wear comfortable clothes. If you are comfortable in high heels, then wear them. Personally I love more canonically comfortable clothes and I always wear some cute sweatpants or leggins and big and warm sweaters. Just do you, friend.
- Start. Now that you know what (you wrote that down, remeber?) and when (you organized that) to do your things you gotta start. Stop waiting for the perfect day. Don't wait on Monday. Start on Sunday or on Thursday, but just start. To study you basically just need a pencil and your book so please, please, stop thinking that if you will have that pen you are gonna be able to start and just start. You don't have to start to study five hours a day right away, just start. You can start with just one minute. It's always gonna be something but just START.
I really hope this is gonna be helpful for you as much as it was for me.
