Studyblr Intro
Well I want to get into the studyblr community but honestly Iām terrible at intros. Bear with me, Iām trying.
Also, Iām a sarcastic little shit and a fatalist so allow me to apologize beforehand for my crappy attitude.
Hello!
The name Iām going by is Umra, nice to meet you.
Iām 18 and in my last year of IB (I am in so much pain honestly help pls put me out of my misery).
Iām taking the following subjects:Ā
Mathematics SL
English Language & Literature HL
Spanish Language & Literature HL
Biology HL
Chemistry SL
Economics SL
English is my third language, so Iām really sorry if my use of grammar makes your eyes bleed. I also speak Spanish and Romanian.
I play the piano and the flute but right now almost all my hobbies are on hiatus (these include reading, writing, drawing, and playing videogames mainly).
I should warn you that my sense of aesthetic is garbage and my notes are a joke, but hey, Iām here to learn.
Iām an INTP-A according to the MBTI test. These are my results:
100% Introverted
85% Intuitive
88% ThinkingĀ
96% Prospecting (which means I am literally unable to get anything done)
65% Assertive (basically Iām pretty chill most of the time)
Not a good combination in order to be a good student, but thatās the reason Iām making a studyblr: to learn how to study.
I need to get into a healthy routine and get my work done properly, so I thought that if I shared it on the Internet I would pressure myself more and could actually succeed.
I have no idea about college or what I want to study in the future. My options go from videogame design to psychiatry to forensic anthropology (my favourite).
However my parents are pressuring me a lot with my grades because they expect me to go to Cambridge (spoiler alert: thereās no way in hell Iām getting accepted there), but well, at least I can try.
I hope to provide this blog with something else than pain, anger and disappointment, thatās kinda my goal.
Some of my favourite studyblrs are:
@tbhstudying @studyquill @janetstudies @thepinkstudyblr @studysum @wendystudies @carlostudyblr
Isnāt it funny how the word āstudyingā has ādyingā in it?
I studied languages consistently during the last two months, and Iām afraid being on the seaside without internet for a week will ruin my habits. I prepared pen-and-paper study materials in advance, but who knows if Scoundrel Ne is going to fail me.
I have to be successful because every two days I read stuff about how ignorant Southern Italian graduates are and how useless and incompetent people who took a degree late are. I had very good results overall and even partly made up for the late degree with some hard work and some hard winging it, but I often feel like people (esp. people in politics) think Iām an abominable waste of resources.
Iāve managed anxiety for such a long time that it doesnāt follow a normal patternĀ anymore. My SJ overzealous colleague told me āI donāt know how you do that. I donāt understand youā, because her reaction to an overly random, difficult bar exam is overpreparing and actually experiencing a lot of anxiety.
My reaction was giving up on the idea of meticulous preparation (I didnāt have the time and sacrificing sleep was never an option), repressing anxiety because it tends to block me and keeping a state of Zen flow, all-action-no-speculation, during the exam itself. I passed the written portion of the exam, which 70% of participants didnāt, and appeared totally nonchalant while waiting for the results (which baffles SJ colleague).
For better or worse, the normal pattern where you notice trouble ahead, you get scared and you act does no longer work in my life, or if it does itās absolutely nonlinear. I have to relate on other tools, otherwise nothing gets done, and since anxiety is a very painful state for me to be in, I tend to prioritize not suffering over perfection. I believe my approach has some merit, but itās overall an ingrained and partially automatic survival strategy.
Itās not all bad, but sometimes I wish my inner workings were more straightforward.

Reminder to myself: no, itās not that other people can perfectly memorize 1600 + pages in 1,5 months while they work in law firms and socialize and you canāt because youāre retarded.
It is that other people half-ass things in order to finish them on time. You can do it too.Ā
Half-ass your way to victory instead of leaving unfinished masterpieces. Or unfinished stuff in general.
