@userdramas event 01: Favourite - favourite moments + quotes: ↳ Mr. Gu x Mi Jeong from My Liberation Notes

There’s this part in my liberation notes. Yeom Mi Jeong’s life is divided into two parts, before and after she met Mr. Gu.

 Me too.

Just finished episode 12 and very surprised and happy with these developments.

Lots of people seem to be annoyed by the main couple but I find their relationship growth makes sense in the context. They’ve missed each other through bad timing before but the feelings have always been there. They’ve each had something happen that forces them to confront those feelings - Jae Hoon when he thought Yoo Reum was getting married and Yoo Reum when he confessed and then had to build a connection to Ji Yeon in the show, constantly reminding YR of what she was missing. Ji Yeon might not feel like a credible choice to Jae Hoon, but Yoo Reum clearly sees her that way and it’s forcing her to sort through her own feelings at last.

His hurt feelings and her fear are getting in the way because that’s what happens. When we don’t hear what we want to we grow bitter and our past failures affect how we approach the future. Though the end of ep12 was surprising, they have 30 years of pent up emotion to work through - the outcome is always going to be intense.

Side note: I’m really enjoying the evolution of Chef John. His facade is falling away and he’s connecting with Ji Wan in such a sincere way - I’m excited to see what comes next!

[the-cheese-tyrant]

So everyone is focusing on Megan Markle and how leaving the royalty is a good thing for her (only) and that Harry is leaving royalty FOR her.

While that's probably partially true he's very much doing it for himself too. From a young age he's being surrounded by paparazzi and and all these royal formalities. If you don't have the right personality traits, all this can be nothing but a burden to you. He was so close to his mother and she died because of the press media and it took a really hard toll on him. So now after all that, would you be able to tolerate that same environment and be willing to raise your kid in that same environment that you were confined in? I don't think so.

But that's great. Not only is he finally leaving the life that suffocates him but he's got a partner that thinks the same way and could reach a final decision that frees them both.

I am so happy that Megan and Harry are finally leaving the environment that has being so toxic to them (especially for Megan) and now have the ability to do anything they want instead of just smiling and waving.

[questioningqueerfangirl-deactiv]

I completely agree with you! They get so much hate lately and I just don’t understand it. I guess you never know with celebrities how they really are, but Megan does not deserve the hate she gets and she seems genuinely lovely to me. And after everything Harry went through in his younger life with losing his mother to the media, he made the right call leaving. Diana would totally stand behind him and Megan, and she would also love Megan to pieces, same with Kate.

Hybrid Note Taking Style

A note taking method that blends the best of paper and digital note taking that I’ve been exploring lately. So far it’s working really well for me :) Hope it helps! 

Hybrid Note Taking Method

Problems with other note taking systems

Each note taking system has its pros and cons. Here are some of the problems I found with (fully) paper and (fully) digital note taking systems.

Paper

Can’t use the search function on your notes.

Can’t add images and other types of digital files easily.

Difficult to keep overview between notebooks.

Can’t share these as easily as digital notes.

Digital

Not as ‘romantic’.

Sometimes less engaging.

Lack of physical presence can lead to you forgetting about it.

Can be more difficult to do things like sketching, making schemes, making illustrations etc.

Benefits of Hybrid

I like using hybrid methods because they bring you the best of both worlds.

Easily searchable.

Information in your notes is traceable.

Makes it easier to find and carry out actions e.g. finding extra info.

Doesn’t damage books.

Allows you to embed different types of files.

What you’ll need

Source material (e.g. book, academic paper)

Any kind of notebook :)

Digital note-taking app → I like Notion (it’s free).

Step 1 - Read & number the material

As you go, use a pencil to lightly put numbers into the margins whenever you deem something worthy of noting down or remembering. This will help you locate the source of specific parts of your notes later.

Step 2 - Write Q&A-style notes

Write the information down in question-and-answer style. Come up with useful questions that link to the material you want to remember (e.g. Q → What is the main problem with using platform-based planning for new ventures? A → Assumptions underlying the plan are used as fact rather than best-guess estimates to be tested and questioned). Use the numbers you placed in the margin of the pages to specify the source of the information you used for each answer.

Example → Chapter 1 page 27 note 3 becomes 1.p27.3

Step 3 - Write actions as you go (Supporting notes)

Supporting notes

Write down your thoughts, anything you’re curious about, things you want to look up, things you’re confused about, actions you’ve been inspired to do, etc. For example → ?m Maybe I can apply this to my visualization assignment? / ! Look up what 'plurality of the future’ is / fex Organizational transformation through design. I find this a great way to support and manage the learning process.

Action key

Keep a small action key in which you have an overview of what your action marks mean (e.g. ?m→ questions to myself, f → find, fex → find example, ?? → I don’t get it, ! → general actions)

Don’t be afraid to customize your actions!

What you’ll get

Actionable notes

Your paper notes will contain a structured and easy to read overview of actionable items that came up during the reading. This can be questions you need answered, reminders to find specific information, etc. This will make them a lot harder to forget to do!

Easily traceable sources

With the codes you’ll be able to tell easily and quickly where the information you’ve written in your notes came from.

Searchable & review-ready notes

Notes will be (mostly) made in question-and-answer style. This will allow you to easily review using active recall. All you need to do is cover/hide the answer and you can check how well you truly know the material.

Thanks for reading!

[jusafn2-deactivated20220210]

14/100 I’m doing a lot of notes form textbooks right now and I basically worked out this system today and it’s the only one I’ve ever found that works for me. It’ll work better with humanities as it relies on fewer diagrams, but you can probably use it for science too.

ok let me just say that while i am interested in clausen and how he got that tip to come to winden, he is just absolutely annoying

he just starts touching everyone's stuff, like damn i hope you wash your hands!!

AND he shushed charlotte! i would've decked him if that were me! can he at least have some manners???

i'm rewatching season 2 and i'm mad all over again lol

[peoplecallmecarfanatic]

I just love how in English you say “great minds think alike”, which is a completely positive thing since you’re kinda praising yourself, but in German you go like “zwei Dumme, ein Gedanke” = “two fools, one thought” 

German is beautiful, isn’t it

[niniblack]

German is way more fucking accurate.

[silentmagi]

I love this phrase, because most people forget the second part of the saying… “Great minds think alike, though fools seldom differ.”

I prefer the German version, much more short and to the point.
