I'm rebranding lol but I wanna keep a little memento of the something 17-yr-old me started but didn't fully commit. I'm 19 now and currently a 2nd year college student taking up a BSN program--something jhs me probably couldn't imagine lol. I don't make fancy notes as I did before anymore and I'm still the greatest procrastinator ever but I think I'm doing my best?

To the past me, nursing school is fun. Stressful at times but you've met some really nice (questionable, honestly) people. You've always thought nursing school was so hard but hey, you survived so far! Zero failed subjects, although grades were average. We're not that competitive anymore, so average is average. I may be lazy but I don't want bad grades *winks* *winks*

To future me, I hope you're doing well :)

[4:19 pm] I spent most of the day sitting and writing notes and now my back and fingers hurts a bit. I'm probably gonna take a few hours break then continue writing again in the evening. Enjoy the rest of your day everyone!

Back after a while! My handwriting still ugly as ever but as long as I can read it, it's fine! It's my notes anyways, not other people's.

Do you listen to music when you're studying or writing your notes?

I usually don't since it distracts me, I like the silence more. Though there are times where I feel like listening and I listen to classical piano musics with no vocal singing or japanese lofi musics [that i don't know the lyrics to] to set up the mood. I avoid listening to musics with vocals especially ones in a language I know because it can easily distract me.

Filmed myself writing notes. I didn't have time lapse on my phone so I had to edit it out on a video editor. It was so fulfilling to see how I fill up a whole page and then flipping it or getting a new one and then filling it up as well. Its kinda fun so I might do this again, though my storage is at risk.

A GRAMMAR LESSON

YOU WRITE WHOM WHEN THE SENTENCE IS OBJECTIVE

WHEREVER YOU CAN WRITE HIM,HE,SHE,HER

FOR EXAMPLE

“He saw the faces of those whom he loved at his birthday . “

YOU WRITE WHO WHEN THE SENTENCE IS SUBJECTIVE

FOR EXAMPLE

“I don’t know who won the challenge .”

“But what’s the difference between subjective and objective ? ”

Subjective- subjective pronoun. A subjective pronoun is a pronoun (I, me, he, she, etc.) that is used as the subject of the sentence

Objective- object of a verb or preposition. Whom should replace the object of the sentence. Consider who is having something done to them when finding the object of the sentence. The object is the person, place, or thing that something is being done to.

PLEASE TAKE THIS ADVICE OR DONT I CANT FORCE YOU

I just realized this might be my first post that is actually about writing -

how i make my B5 papers from A4 papers

I have a ream of 80gsm A4 papers. Instead of buying B5 papers, I just use it to make me some B5 papers.

I would start by removing the cover of my (diy) B5 notebook binder and clip it to my A4 papers. Then trace the sides using my 0.38mm black ink pen. Its advisable to use a ruler but I have trust issues with myself. There is a high possibility that if I use a ruler the lines would not turn out straight.

After tracing the lines, I would just remove the cover so only the paper remains. I'd then cut it with a paper cutter, making sure the black lines would be cut out too.

Black ink lines successfully cut along with the extra papers.

After that I just print my own printables and punch it with my 6-hole binder puncher and store it in my envelope.

I keep the extra papers inside the paper cutter because I use a lot of scratch papers for when i make mistakes that is hard to cover with correction tapes or when I'm swatching my pens, markers, or highlighters.

It'd be such a waste to throw them when there are lots of things you can do with it.

how i make my own ruled binder papers (A4 and B5)

I use two sizes of paper, A4 and B5. Both are 80gsm. I don't own any B5 papers so I make one out of my 80gsm A4 paper.

Of course since we're making ruled papers we need to make the lines. I do that manually on Word. I already made A4 and B5 versions of it. The size of the margin is 0.5 inches. The lines are colored gray and its not actually lines but just a series of small dots.

Left side: A4 size (36 line, excluding the top and bottom lines)

Right side: B5 size (30 lines, excluding the top and bottom lines)

After printing it, I punch it with my 6-hole binder puncher and I'm done!

I made my ruled printables with the thought of using the whole page so it is designed with the intention that I can write from the very top to the very bottom.

If you would like to print your own printables I would suggest visiting @emmastudies she has really pretty and organised printables. I've actually printed some of them and planning to use more, hers is more organised and prettier than mine.

I'll make a separate blog on how I make my own B5 papers out of A4 papers.

A little reminder...

[tellmejy]

Rewriting my notes of one of the lessons from my Biology I class. I don't normally rewrite my notes but it was crumpled and really messy to look at and I get annoyed looking at it :/

[tellmejy]

I wanted to make vintage a theme for my project but since I don't have any washi tapes or any other interesting craft items, I made my own by downloading photos from Pinterest and Google and printed them myself.

Coincidentally, the ruler I was using matched the papers so I just included it and it looks really pretty.

Before, I used to looked for some printable stickers on the internet and print them then cut them like stickers. Since they were just building dust in the corner, unused, I decided to just use them now.

I have always been lazy but ever since quarantine I had become worse and I wanted to change that, that is the reason for this blog. But yesterday my laziness striked back and I wasn't able to do anything productive. Today as well, I skipped my work to "help" my sister prepare for my birthday in two days but end up not doing so much. Tonight, I'm staying up late to finish what I should've today.

I was practicing my calligraphy with my Crayola Supertips and did this. I know it looks so clumsy-made, i only started practicing last October 2020 but I stopped for a few months and now I'm just getting back to it again.

[tellmejy]

Yesterday I started writing my notes (which I didn't do before), I used purple as my main color then so today I'm using pink.

In addition to my "little introduction", my blog pics and notes won't be as aesthetic-looking as other study bloggers but I will try to make it as good looking as possible. Also, excuse my low-quality photos. My phone doesn't have the best camera, as it is a budget-friendly phone. (I just added some filter on it to make it presentable enough to post)

I also made my own ruled printables with space at the side so i can punch it and put in a binder, i made it really thin and grey in color so it might not look very visible on the photo.

I use 80gsm A4 paper. Right now, I don't have a binder but I've been planning to buy one for all my subjects.
