A Guide to Planning Systems

It’s important to have a system of getting things done, whether it’s tackling tasks as the day progresses or having a carefully planned schedule for every single hour of the week. How can you create an effective personal planning system that suits your needs and preferences?

how to study for big exams

✧ study beforehand: Begin to study two weeks before your tests (or even before) so it helps your anxiety and you don’t freak out last minute. Two weeks before your test is the perfect time for you to start studying one hour to an hour and a half each day. This gives you time to prepare and get comfortable with what you have learned.

✧ don’t cram: It’s fine to review the night before the test but if you try to learn new concepts the night before you will be way too stressed out and will just end up getting anxious + not really learning anything. Don’t procrastinate and start now. ✧ avoid distractions: When you get really stressed out while studying, or every 30-50 minutes, try to distract yourself for just a couple of minutes (5 minutes). Take a light walk, play with your dog, or just take a minute, listen to music and let your mind wander. Don’t let it get too long though, this is just for you to refresh yourself. Also, make sure to avoid your phone even during your small break. Chances are you are going to get hooked and end up looking through it way more than what you intended to. ✧ manage your time wisely: Make lists and plan ahead in what you want to study. Create your own study guides if not given one by the teacher and make a study schedule. Begin studying and study harder for the subjects you need to get a better score on, and/or are harder for you to understand. Analyze your exam schedule and begin planning.

manage your time using the pomodoro method: what is the pomodoro method? it’s a really effective technique where you set a timer for 25 minutes and you start studying/working, when the timer’s up you take a short 5 minute break (no electronics!) there’s even a few apps on the app store, here are two i recommend:

flat tomato: apple (not available for android so click here for a similar one)

pomodoro time: apple/ similar on android

✧ speak to your teacher: A few days or a week prior the test, talk to your teacher. Ask them what kind of format the test will mostly be like. (Multiple choice, fill in the blank, etc.) ask them what’s the most important things you need to know and study from and focus more on.

✧ make studying fun: use colors, sketches, foldables, flashcards, online games, etc. anything to spice up how you study!

✧ study methods:

read everything from cover to cover: not exactly reading it, but more like skimming through it. it might not work for everyone, but reading it 1 time quickly, not trying to memorize anything personally helps me kind of get the whole idea and what it is talking about.

get a tutor: this is what helped me for math, since I really suck at it. do this if you are willing to pay for one or find someone at school whether it’s a teacher or an older student.

youtube: if you don’t like tutors or just don’t want to pay for one, go to youtube. You can get tutoring for free and have concepts explained to you in different ways. If you don’t understand something, you can easily rewind or switch to another video. there’s even programs that their goal is exactly that, helping people for free, like khan academy. (really good one!)

study groups: i do a lot better when i study with other people. I am bound to procrastinate if i decide to study by myself. Ask a few friends who you know will study and do understand the subject. If you are easily distracted and prefer to study alone, then go for it.

quiz yourself and others: even if you’re asking the questions, hearing the answers and checking them helps to memorize things better.

teach the material to someone else: this can be really effective since when teaching it, you are also teaching yourself and testing if you actually understand what you are talking about. your mind will organize the information in a way that you feel will help the other person understand better.

flashcards: good old flashcards. I think having some on hand everywhere is good so you can just grab ‘em on your free time and go through them. they’re great for vocabulary words and concepts. If you don’t want to take the time to write them out then use any app. Like quizlet or studyblue. (you could also use @studyign alternative to flashcards method)

✧ more methods:

mind maps

outlines of the chapters

reviewing old tests

studying from your notes

taking notes from the book once again.

create a questionnaire for you to answer.

✧ motivate yourself: how? well, one way I usually get motivated is by reading school related tips and scrolling through studyblrs. but don’t stay on tumblr!! it doesn’t count as studying.

✧ before the test:

go to school rested: it’s important to let your brain rest. Be sure to at least have 6 hours of sleep before a test. Your health is important, you need energy. DO NOT PULL ALL NIGHTERS.

eat a good breakfast: choose something healthy (at least healthy-ish) that will fill you up and give you energy for the hours you are going to be in school. Don’t believe the “an empty stomach will make you focus better” not true. Some ideas are:

-eggs and sweet potato hash browns -banana pancakes -waffles with some peanut butter -huge fruit smoothie

wear something comfortable: wear an outfit that makes you feel good but it’s also comfortable.

quickly review: just quickly go through any notes or flashcards you had written whenever you have time. During breakfast, while you’re in the car or waiting to get your test.

prepare: make sure to come prepared. A lot of teachers might not allow borrowing during the test. So make sure you have pens, pencil, eraser, liquid paper, calculator, sharpener or anything else at hand.

✧ during the test:

READ: go through your test and read everything, then ask your teacher whatever you don’t get. Underline key words in every question so you can organize the problem, making it easier to tackle.

concentrate: don’t let anyone disturb you.

notes: write down things you feel you could easily forget. If it’s a math test, go to the back of your test and write down every formula you remember so when you are faced with a problem you can go back to check. By doing this you clear your mind and you don’t feel as overwhelmed.

take your time: Allow yourself to double-check problems and reread everything. It is not a race.

calm yourself down: breathe, you know this.

* i know a lot of you are already out of exam season but hopefully this can help you for the upcoming year! :)

Studying with mental illness:

Hi so recently I took a break because my anxiety and depression had a spike?!? I don’t know how to explain it. I’ve made a post about it to show why exactly I had to take some time away. Anyway I thought I’d give a few ideas and tips for studying when you have a mental illness. A lot of them can be used by anyone but are very important

Take regular study breaks rather than do it all in one go. I tend to only be able to focus on tasks for a certain amount of time before I have to change so it’s good to do 20 mins then change the task

Look at maslows heirarchy of needs

You need to fulfill the bottom four before you can even begin to study. I think this is helpful for people with mental illness because often it’s easy to forgot and disregard these needs so it gives us a chance to focus not them.

Talk to your school and teachers. My teachers would be fine if I had to leave their class due to anxiety so they let. E go if I need to. My teachers tend to also ask me how I’m doing very often which is small but to me is important. It can also help with elongating due dates.

Do more on good days and less on the bad ones. I’m more motivated and energised on good days as is everyone else so I can do extra work whilst on bad days you may do less or none at all. Utilise the good days so you don’t feel so bad for not doing much on bad days.

Celebrate the little things. Read for 5 mins? Celebrate! Study for 10? Celebrate! Actually get up and do something on a bad day? Celebrate! Encourage yourself with rewards or even just a pat on the back.

Minset. I’ve said this so many times but just tell yourself you can. Saying it may even teach you to believe it because saying you can may make you even slightly better.

Sleep well. Referring back to the heirarchy but it makes a difference.

Take time for yourself. Don’t continuously study cause it’ll just make you feel a lot worse. Sometimes you might have to force yourself to read over stuff but only in extreme circumstances and never to the point where you feel a lot worse.

Understand it’s ok to feel this way. I often feel terrible and can’t do anything but I understand that it’s not my fault and if I try then I can get better. You’re amazing and you can do it.

Anyway I’m hoping these make sense ahah I’m not sure if they do or not but wanted to share some key tips that I’ve been thinking about recently. I’ve had to take the week to just think some stuff through and haven’t been able to do everything as well as I’d hope but it’s important. To all my followers or people reading this who are struggling just know I’m proud of you!

some study tips from my psychology teacher 📖

STOP Cramming

cramming is good for the short term, such as just before a test (i’m talking like an hour before), but shouldn’t be used as an effective study method. you only learn the information in the exact way you read it, so any practical application on your test won’t be easy to answer. you also will struggle with answering the same questions you studied for, but asked differently.

Spacing Effect

the spacing effect is essentially the opposite of cramming. instead of doing a 4 hour study session, break it up into groups of 30 minutes. do 30 minutes, take a nice long break, go back for 30, and repeat. that break in between gives your brain time to encode and store the information. this can be done in either one day, or over the course of a few days before the test.

Mnemonic devices are your best friend when dealing with lists of information

any sort of rhyming scheme, letter association, acronyms, etc. is proven to help you. any american can say ROY G. BIV and know exactly what they’re talking about, another example is HOMES for the great lakes. another major example is “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally”/PEMDAS for the order of operations. this helps with lists, i use it all the time in biology for stuff like the Levels of Classification or Characteristics of Living things. for AP Euro i remember “Descartes with a D” because he “Doubts and wrote Discorse on Method”.

Hierarchy Organizing for Midterms and Finals

by breaking information down into a hierarchy, you can figure out how to study all your chapters at once. these are often called “graphic organizers” and it takes the whole topic, then breaks it into subsections, then subsections of those subsections. here’s an example i found for my Memory unit

the whole unit is memory, the subtopics are sensory memory, short term, then long term. then comes the subdivisions of long term memory and so on. this is wonderful for study planning in regards to large information tests.

these are just some of the tips we talked about, and obviously they won’t work for everybody, but it’s really helped my studying process because it’s literally how the brain processes information best for long term storage and retrieval.

lgbtanimes

As someone who uses the ipad pro and iphone x max constantly for school, I tend to dab around looking for the perfect apps to suit my needs and hobbies. If anyone wonders what apps I use for school, here are some “fundamental apps” I pertain to.

schedules and lists:

Calendars 5 - Calendars 5 is complete re-imagining of what the best mobile calendar experience should be. Calendars 5 is smart, excels in both tasks and events and runs on any iOS device you might have. It’s the calendar app you have been looking for.

Taskade - A great organized app that helps you organize your tasks or write simple notes.

Minimalist - a minimalist themed app that lets you list tasks very simple with other functions such as music and scenery to help you focus on those tasks.

timing, relaxing, and focus:

Clock - This is the default app that comes along with your ios device. I would say the functionality in it is very helpful to maintain alarms and a steady sleep schedule with the sleep function!

Tide - The tide app is an amazing peaceful app that lets you choose a time setting for how long you will work with soothing sounds playing in the background. The sounds really do help me focus and I highly recommend this app.

Flat Tomato - This app helps you split your time and measures it. For example, you would work for 25 minutes and then you would have a 5 minute break. This app really helps me with splitting my time and my tasks accordingly.

Forest - The forest app is absolutely great if you need help with staying away and off from your phone. The app grows a tree for up to two hours of constant studying which you would grow your tree in the meantime. If you do go on your phone and switch the app, the tree dies.

Flora - This is an alternative if you cannot or do not want to buy the forest app. It sort of works just like Forest, but you have a small 2D garden rather than a square terrain you see your trees grow on.

Oak - Oak helps the monkey-minded decompress by transforming meditation practices from experiments into habits. We support you from your first session to your 500th, with mindful, loving-kindness, and sleep meditations as well as unguided sessions and breathing exercises. Individualize your meditations by duration, and customize with silence or calming background sounds. Oak tracks your progress and encourages you to continue building a healthy meditation practice.

drawing and art:

Procreate - My absolute favorite app that works so well with art. I draw most of my art work in there and occasionally make headers and calligraphy with it.

Ibis Paint X - This app is the pro version of another art app which has a few advantageous functions than procreate, but nonetheless helps a lot with making some really fine art.

titles and notetaking:

Over - The Over App is perfect to made headers and titles that are easily transferred to the goodnotes app.

Phonto - The Phonto app is another perfect app to make the titles with, but it isn’t easily transferred to the goodnotes app and you would need to save the image as a png to upload it to the page, but there are more fonts you could and you can add a lot of your own fonts as well.

Keynote - I use this app to make folders and planners and this works as a powerpoint but for apple of course. There are a lot of great tutorials that help with making cool planners and notebooks with this app.

Docs - Helps download videos and documents off online through mobile devices and organize files accordingly

Goodnotes - One of my favorite apps I use to take majority of my notes. It helps me organize my courses into different notebooks all in one app.

PDF Expert- I use this app in order to view my textbooks straight from the drives I use and occasionally edit and note take directly on my PDF books.

resources and flashcards:

Chegg - College resource with a flashcard app as well.

Course Hero - Upload documents to open documents related to the courses that you may be taking! Free when you upload your own documents, so try it! Great place to get accurate study guides.

The Khan Academy - App to take practice tests and get guidance on material related to your courses. Great app to get you on track and help you focus!

Quizlet - great app to organize flashcards and practice tests

DuoLingo- A wonderful language app that helps me keep a streak and maintain my language learning.

Periodic Table - This app is what it says it is. The periodic table. As someone who’s major focuses on Chemistry, I really do need this app and hopefully this app is useful for you all as well!

photos and editing:

VSCO - My favorite app that filters and edits images to make them look vintage or clean.

Snapseed - Another editing app with more controls and settings to help edit the images and color in areas to make them brighter or dimmer.

Afterlight 2 - A great editing app that helps add effects and details to images

PicPlayPost - an app that helps with organizing my images into collages or video cropping to make my images look neater. I also use it to edit my watermarks

Analog Seoul - Analog Seoul is the eighth app of Analog Film City Series. With the specially created Analog Seoul photo filters, you can edit your pictures as if they were taken in Seoul.

printing, scanning, and storage:

Printerpro - A great app that helps with printing wireless from your iPad.

Scanner Pro - Scanning documents high quality and upload them to cloud

Drive - The best and foremost easiest storage to use and because I go to school/ university I have unlimited space for my files!

iCloud Drive - I only use this for photos or back ups, but occasionally it works well when I need to transfer files through apps that only use this form of storage.

Dropbox - Another storage application, but I usually use this for items I don’’t really need unless there’s an emergency. I use it to store mostly audio files and heavy files for keynote

entertainment and reading:

Netflix - To watch all my favorite movies and shows

Crunchyroll - I watch all my animes that I can here on this app

Kissanime - of course an alternative to crunchyroll is kissanime if you want to find animes for free (there are ads though)

Youtube - I mainly use this app for tutorials and guides to homework and projects

The CW - I watch all of my favorite local shows like the Flash, DC Legends, and Riverdale on this app for free.

MangaRock - I read most of my mangas on this app

iBooks - the installed app by apple where I transport a lot of my books into for reading and entertainment

VLive - For all my kpop friends, you know what this is for.

To be updated…

hello angel!! Sorry if you've been asked this before but do you have any tips on getting started on classical musical theory? I just want to understand more but i am STRUGGLING!! thank u 🌞

Hey there! I definitely know the struggle, MT can be so complicated!

I don’t know what exactly your level is, but let’s assume it’s entrance level and go from there.

The best place to start is probably with a couple of books that properly explain the basics. I used the AB guide to music theory, part 1 and 2. These two thin and fairly inexpensive books (at least where I live they’re like 10€ each) get you really far and are (mostly) quite clear and concise.

Some great online resources are:

musictheory.net has a series of great tutorials. They are very very clear and show everything step by step. I used this one quite a lot when I was still teaching music theory

teoria.com is very skill-based. It has quite some MT tutorials and articles with analyses of pieces for example, but the best part of the website are definitely the interactive skill training exercises. If you want some practical application, this is the place to go. I have and still am spending hours on this website lol

learningmusic.ableton.com a fun place to start, this is an interactive website which teaches some basics. If you’re a musician, you may find this too easy though.

Michael New’s YouTube tutorials! He’s an actual music teacher and goes through the basics in this playlist, and there’s more advanced stuff on his channel if you want more

openmusictheory.com is a bit more advanced (probably college level) and has some amazing lessons on e.g. writing counterpoint. I like it, though it often uses solmization (do re mi) instead of note names, which will eternally confuse me.

Some other books:

The musician’s guide to theory and analysis (quite good, but rlly expensive, and a lot is actually on openmusictheory anyway), used in most colleges

Laitz’s book of which I forget the name - it’s pretty dense but if that’s all right for you it’s a very good book covering a lot

20th century harmony, a bit outdated but is really interesting if you want to know more about harmony specifically. You need some basics for this

For jazz or pop musicians reading this, go for the Jazz Theory Book by Levine. It’s great.

The complete arranger by Sammy Nestico has some really useful parts on instruments and their specific properties, but is focused on writing music.

If you happen to own A History of Western Music (good book!), there’s a lot of parts that practically apply MT to a historical context. Freaking complicated at times but interesting nonetheless

Hope this helps a bit! 💛

study-wellbeing

feeling overwhelmed

so I’ve made mistakes in my first years of uni by leaving everything until the last minute, so I’ve learnt the hard way that you have to be pro-active about your studies… some of the following may seem obvious to active studyblrs but sometimes we all need a reminder.

here’s some things i’ve learned:

- don’t be too hard on yourself - you’re not a failure, you just need to learn to manage your time better, try making a weekly timetable so you can plan out study time around any other commitments.

- prioritise your workload - don’t worry about something that’s due in 3 weeks when you have something you’ve procrastinated doing due in 2 days.

- know your deadlines! it’s a simple enough concept but double check your dates, write them on your calendars and phones.

- get a wall calendar - there’s some great free templates online - this allows you to clearly see when your deadlines are and when you’re busy periods will be so you can also plan your social life around them.

- read! read! read! - do your recommended reading each week (if you’re a music student then also recommended listening) and try to gain some background knowledge by borrowing books from the library or even watching a documentary.

- stay on top of your work - as previously mentioned do your recommended work each week, update your notes regularly and if your institution has recap then use it to fill in any gaps in your notes or revise your course material.

- be clear! make a list of exactly what you have to do for each of your deadlines and/or print out any relevant info for your assignments to avoid a last minute disaster.

- to-do lists - they’re great but they can also feel really overwhelming. try to focus your to-do lists - prioritise your work and stick to the list - do not jump from the order otherwise you’ll have done all the easy tasks and you’ll be left with all the things you don’t want to do.

- remove the distractions - airplane mode and do not disturb should be your best friends. if that’s not enough then try online website blockers like StayFocusd & Freedom. if its your flatmates/friends then try working in the silent section of the library where they can’t talk

- wellbeing - make sure to catch up on anything you miss if you’re ill, email your lecturers/tutors if you’re unsure about something you’ve missed.

- don’t worry about what everyone else is doing - this sounds selfish but some of us spend so much time helping others, we forget that we have our own work to do… the point is focus on your own studies and your own degree, after all you are working towards your own future.
