20 days back-to-school challenge [covid-19 ver.]
i hope that everyone is doing ok amid the chaos that is 2020! it’s hard to believe that my 20 days back-to-school challenge started two years ago and instead of 550 followers i’m almost at 5000! with that in mind, i wanted to rework the 20 days back-to-school challenge a bit so that it would be more applicable for the weird situations we’re all living in this year (whether it’s staying at home or being isolated at school). some of the questions are still the same, though!
remember to tag me with @joystudie or #joystudie! i’ll be starting this one on September 1st, the first day of classes for me but feel free to start it earlier or later -- i know some schools are starting already!
1. what are your goals for the semester or year? it’s a rough time, no goal is too small :)
3. what’s in your pencil pouch?
4. what are your stationery ride-or-dies? (basically, what pieces of stationery are you absolutely obsessed with and would use forever and ever?)
5. what’s your favorite quarantine activity at home? what do you do when you need a break from studying?
6. do the handwriting tag! write “the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog” in lowercase, uppercase, and cursive.
7. treat yourself to a snack when studying and take a photo of it!
8. what classes are you taking? now that the first week is over, take some pictures of your notes and/or talk about what you like or dislike about those classes!
9. stay hydrated! take a photo of your studyspace with a glass of water or tea or juice!
10. are paper planners still a thing? show everyone your planning system, paper or digital.
11. how do you take notes? what note-taking system works the best for you?
12. make a to-do list and show it to the world! alternatively, show off a printable or habit tracker you’re using.
13. hello fall! letter a quote or take a picture in the theme of fall!
14. it’s been two weeks already! take a break today. go out for a walk (safely of course!) and show us a cool photo you took while on your walk!
15. what has been your biggest challenge of the new school year so far?
16. what’s your inspiration?
17. what’s your aesthetic? room decor aesthetic, notes aesthetic, bujo aesthetic, clothing aesthetic, or any aesthetic! this post might be good inspiration :)
18. share a fun fact about something you’re super passionate about!
19. we’re almost there, so here’s a VIBE CHECK! drop your favorite (studying or otherwise) playlist. let’s share some tunes!
20. it’s the last day! now that you’ve gotten through this challenge, what are your aspirations for the rest of the semester or year?
have fun + best wishes for everyone as they start a new school year! 🌟 and thank you for 5k 💖
