9. What is your favorite stationery?

This questions always gets me… I would have to say my MUJI pens because they’re what I’m most selective with, but I love all my stationery!

10. What is your favorite piece of stationery you own?

My wite-out and my washi tape. They’re amazing :)

11. What kinds of pens do you prefer?

I love the Pentel R.S.V.P. Fine tip pens. They are super smooth to write with and very precise.

12. Favorite book you’ve read for school?

I actually hate reading for school. I tend to only really enjoy a book when I read it because I want to, not because I’m forced. The only two book I read for school and LOVED were The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton and Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. They remain two of my favorite books of all time.

13. Favorite studying apps?

Forest is an amazing app for using the pomodoro technique. myHomework is a good app to keep track of all your classes and various assignments. Google Calendar is great for life, too.

14. What advice about studying changed your life?

The advice for studying that changed my life is that it’s okay to fail or no understand. It’s completely normal. We are not computers; we all process information very differently. It all comes down to finding the most efficient method for you.

15. What quote has impacted you the most?

There are way too many…

16. What do you do when you’re feeling unmotivated?

 I calm down. Usually, when I’m feeling unmotivated it’s because I’m too anxious to touch anything school-related, so I don’t. I take a breather. When I feel I’ve significantly calmed down, I simply revisit my task and take it one step at a time. Other times, I scroll through Tumblr and it always seems to help :)

17. Have you ever felt not good enough?

More often than I care to admit. Then I remember that my learning process is not meant to compete with the learning processes of others. The learning process is meant to nourish my mind, my beautiful, wonderfully curious mind. The information I receive is not and will never be received the same as it does anywhere else. That makes me special :) Which is a helluva lot more than “not good enough”.

18. What is your organization system for school?

My bullet journal, Google Calendar, and the myHomework app. That’s all I need.

19. How has having this blog changed you?

This blog has made me more mindful of how I study and how often I study. I don’t remember the last time I studied or, even more-so, ENJOYED studying!

I was chasing down the days of fear

Last night all black and white when I was sleeping

Hello, hello

When we die

Turn away
