Veryblr

Very, 22 - 4th year med student. I'm from Italy. I post something medblr, studyblr or booklr.

why do you and others like vaccines so much?

not dying of preventable diseases is actually one of my favorite hobbies

[plain-flavoured-english]

As I get older I’m starting to let go of the guilty urge to build permanent habits. Like, a while ago I decided I would start jumping rope every day. I did it for like three weeks and felt good about it. Then I got bored, because of course I did, because I’m a human person. So now I do a bit of kickboxing because that’s what I like now. The other week I cut all sugar from my diet, just for a week, to challenge myself. Now I’m back to eating sweets but I don’t crave them as much.

Growth is about stretching, trying new things, and setting small, realistic goals for yourself, not picking a “good habit” you’ve decided you will be doing always and forever from now on. That’s not discipline. That’s pointless self-torture and unhealthy resistance to change.

What’s good for you today will not necessarily be what’s good for you tomorrow.

Let’s face it- even the most motivated and disciplined students can’t study for a couple of hours straight- we all need to rest. Taking a break  from studying every now and then will improve your focus and attention. Below are some of our ideas what to do during study breaks. We divided them into categories depending on the length of  your break. Feel free to try them out to later get back to your books refreshed and motivated!

5-10 minutes

Get some fresh air (either go outside, or simply stand up and go to the nearest window- don’t focus on anything and just breathe)

Leave your room/desk and go for a little walk

Throw yourself a little dance party (Cristina and Meredith did it and trust us, it works- put on some energising music and dace for a song or two)

Stand up and stretch!

10-20 minutes

Make yourself a proper, healthy snack (cut an apple into slices and put peanut butter on every slice or make yourself a healthy smoothie)

Watch a TedTalk on a completely unrelated topic (it will both relax you and still keep your brain working)

Do a little yoga (there are multiple mini-routines on youtube)

Browse the #studyblr tag (or maybe post your own photo with it!)

Take a quick shower (if you have a real study marathon ahead of you, a shower break can be a great way to get energised)

20-40 minutes

Call a friend

Clean your room (sounds pretty boring, but you’ll feel refreshed and super-productive once you’re done- and you won’t have to do this later!)

Take a nap (but really, try not to make it longer than 40 minutes)

Watch ONE episode of Friends (nothing better than a good laugh, right?)

 40-60 minutes

Workout (go for a 30-minute run or find a workout video on youtube- you’ll end up energised and full of endorphins, which will help you to keep going)

Try a new recipe and make yourself dinner for later

Read a chapter of a book you’re currently reading (if you’re not reading any- start a book)

BACK TO SCHOOL GIVEAWAY 1: Leuchtturm1917

If you’ve spent 2 minutes browsing the Studyblr community, you will have read about bullet journaling. Since high school, I’ve loved the traditional planner style, but I’ve been converted to the bullet journal style of planning and notetaking. Not only can you exercise your creative muscles when creating pages tailored to your needs, but you can combine your to-do lists and tasks in one place. 

Kindly, Leuchtturm1917 sent me this dotted notebook to transform into the bullet journal of my dreams and review for you all. The notebook contains 251 numbered pages, a table of contents, and 12 perforated sheets at the back - perfect for sharing notes with your classmates. The 2 page markers make it really easy to find your most-used pages, and there is also an expandable pocket at the back to store loose pieces of paper. 

I’ve spent the last few days setting up this bujo for my upcoming Masters course, and I’m so excited to share them with you. I’m quite minimalistic when it comes to my weekly spreads - I know that I won’t have much time to make them really elaborate and decorative, so I’ve kept the weekly spread down to the basics. On the left-hand box is the events I’ve got that day, and on the right is a space for all of my tasks to do that day. Once I’m at university, I might find that I need to change the layout slightly to allow for more space for to-do’s, but that’s the beauty of a bullet journal - you can adapt to changes so easily! Whilst it’s great to admire the artistic talent of the amazing bujo’s shared in the community, remember that it does need to be functional and practical above all.

I’ve also included really useful pages. I found this essay-writing advice on Tumblr a while ago (I apologise for not crediting the original author - I couldn’t find it), and thought it would be really helpful to have it written out in my bullet journal so I can reference it when writing essays.

The Giveaway:

For the first of my back to school giveaways, I’m giving you the chance to win a bundle of the following:

A Leuchtturm1917 dotted notebook in the colour of your choice

A pack of Mildliners - featured in the images

A pack of Stabilo pastel highlighters - featured in the images

A pack of 5 Muji 0.38mm black pens - featured in the images

Rules rules rules:

Must be following me, and preferably be active i.e. ask me questions, tag me in things, reblog my posts

Reblog this as an entry, likes are only bookmarks. I’ll use a random number generator to help me pick the winner

You can enter as many times as you like but don’t spam your followers, please 

It’s international, and you don’t have to be a studyblr to enter - it might inspire you to start your own!

The deadline is August 24th, so they can be with you for the new academic year.

A handful of bacteria!!! This is the handprint of an 8-year-old boy covered in bacteria. The boy came in from playing outside, and his mom decided to put his hand print inside a large Petri dish, incubated it for two days, and ended up with a colorful germ garden! #mednews #surgery #medicalschool #scrubs #medicine #medstudent #anatomy #surgeon #medstudentlife #medicine #clinical#health #healthcare #dentist #nurse #nursery #nursingschool #patients #thebestdoctor #medblog #photography #instagram#success #nice#georgia #health #instagram #instagood #istanbul #nice#photoshoot #photography #love #healthyfood
