Hi everyone, 

I hope you all had or are having a productive day. This was from the start of yesterday, I have managed to complete these now. By the way, SOW stands for one of my modules names 😂

I love this little pad it is so useful, I don’t really use a bullet journal or a planner although I adore the aesthetics of them, instead, I use lists and these little pads are amazing for that! 

Seeing that tumblr mobile is fucking with photo quality more than usual (I didn’t even think it was possible), click/tap to enhance quality! // After an anxious start to the week, I had to make sure my spread was centered around just making my heart happy. And you know what that means- art history, broadway musical quotes, fashion I wish I could afford, a soft color palette, and lots of stickers. Made me realize how much I overthink everything, including something as simple as my bullet journal! Do what makes you happy, always and you’ll never loose.

mar 11, 2018 // sparta notes part two! these were also from the summer holidays and somehow I’m posting on the 11th again?? one month until my birthday omg omg (also exams start in a few days ahhhh)

honestly, i haven’t been feeling 100% into school recently. my grades aren’t where i want them to at right now. no matter how many assignments i ace, my grade will stay the same. BUT when you’re feeling down, encouraging others usually results in you feeling better so that’s what i’m gonna do !

think about your why - why are you in school ? who do you do it for ? what are your goals and what do you need to do to achieve them ? i’m in school because it’s a big reason my family and i immigrated to the united states. i’m doing it for the future so that i can provide a comfortable life for my kids and parents when the time comes. it’s different for everyone, but keep yours in mind.

give yourself a refresher. sometimes, you just really need a break. your mind and body are tired from everything. give yourself time and treat yourself even if it’s just a movie night with friends.

surround yourself with motivated people. when i hang around complainers and people who just want to go out all the time, i never get any work done because my mindset is “school is stupid, i should just be having fun.” BUT if you surround yourself with people who prioritize their studies, work towards their goals, and are driven, they can be a good influence on you.

set goals. make sure they’re realistic and attainable. they can keep you on track and build up higher standards for yourself. list short term goals (grades) that will help you achieve long term goals (college).

don’t study too much. you will burn out and eventually be tired of anything related to school. there’s nothing wrong with balance, but know yourself well enough to not tip the scale.

set up a pleasant workspace. i know not everyone can have an area completely dedicated for studying, but it does help a lot of people. if anything, just make sure the area is clean and well lit. have enough space for your laptop, books, etc. light a candle or get an aromatherapy diffuser if you like. customize it to become a place you look forward to being in.

change things up. try out new ways to decorate or take your notes, fill up your bullet journal, etc. most things get boring after a while. strive to improve and adapt as time goes on.

make sure your health is in check. stay hydrated. eat some healthy snacks. exercise and stretch a bit. do your skincare routine. make time to do whatever gives you energy and peace.
