After almost two years, I FINALLY FINALLY got straight As again!!

It seems very selfish to make this post, but I have been through so much shit and I leaned on the community so much and I need to just say thank you for helping me, thank you so so much. It’s been rough- chronic illness, family problems, mental health and coping problems, just everyday problem, and I am so happy that the hard work paid off.

I’d like to thank coffee, my therapist, my professors, my medication, my unlimited minutes plan so I could call my parents whenever I needed to talk, and lastly some people here on tumblr because you don’t know it but you helped me so much.

Keep losing your good pen/pencil every time you set it down? 

Does your writing implement like to take a vacation into the void every time you try to be productive, only for you to find it days later in a completely unrelated room?

Here’s some places to set it down, so it sticks around to help out:

In the middle crease of your notebook

If you prefer spiral notebooks to composition ones, stick your pen/pencil in the spiral, or clip it on if the pen/pencil has a clip

Grab your favorite mug or glass and use it as your pen/pencil return for each time you need to set down what you’re writing with. The clink of it being dropped into your mug/glass each time will help you remember where you put it, if you chronically space that sort of thing like I do

Have a laptop? Drop it in the space between the keyboard and screen!

If you use this method, always check that spot before you close your laptop. I’m not even kidding, I’ve shattered a screen this way, save yourself the money and hassle of buying a new laptop!

Tie a bright feather to the non-writing end, so long as you don’t need to use an eraser on that end! That way you can keep track of your writing object (a big neon feather is hard to overlook, even for us XD) and feel like a proper 17-1800s person using a quill from the future. Or Harry Potter.

Also, fake flowers work really well too because you can look for the flower rather than the writing thing itself, but the slight imbalance in weight from flowers like roses can be distracting/difficult to write with if you have weak hands due to another illness

Hey everyone!! So I know my poll post isn’t even halfway through the vote amount bar I had set, but since the vast majority of the response has been positive, I would like to announce that I am in the process of setting it up as a new sideblog!! 

I have the shell for it finished, I’m just building a draft base of reblogs to queue when the blog is open to the public so you guys don’t have long to wait for posts on there, but also so that you don’t have weeks worth of straight-to-blog or posted queue posts to go back through ^_^
