Today, I’m working on some key political science terms and trying not to freak out now that I have 4 extremely heavy papers in the next week. I’ve been getting questions about the materials I use so:

1) the black pen is actually a really cheap house brand from Popular bookstore 2) the coloured flashcards are from a SG brand called Ugrade(.com.sg) 3) I use recycled paper so it’s actually the blank side of my sisters’ old music scores you’re seeing
