Welcome to sweaters-tea-studying, aka my little holy trinity (studying is interchangeable with writing, and I suppose the right thing to do start this off is by introducing myself? (p.s. sorry this got a bit wordy and lengthy)

My story I joined tumblr a while ago, but only started to more actively use it since this year. I’ve been silently spectating the studyblr community, but never really participated, but I really want to, to hold myself accountable and what not, and share tips of my own to other people who may be interested. I also love writing notes and want to share that too. Therefore, here I am!

Some stuff about me

·         My name is Claudia

·         My ethnicity is Chinese, my nationality is Malaysian, and my preferred language is English

·         I am 15 years old and in university

·         Proud hufflepuff

·         Writer and stationery lover

·         My main fandom is Marvel (MCU), Harry Potter, and I also watch Shadowhunters—have been meaning to get into the books, I know, I’m a “fake fan”, whatever that really is :’(

·         Favourite book series in Throne of Glass and PJO when I was younger (but I want to get back into it tbh, because it helped me grow as a writer a lot)

Academics and what not

·         I’m majoring in journalism

·         I’m in an American Degree Transfer Program, meaning I will be studying in a ‘local’ university for 2 years, and then 2 years in America

·         Currently my GPA is 3.8. Don’t really know if you guys care, but I don’t know what else to say

·         I love writing pretty notes

·         I took my IGCSEs when I was 14—I’m not smart, I’m just overachieving Asian kid with an overachieving Asian parent.

Classes I’m taking the upcoming semester

·         American History I

·         College Algebra

·         College Physics

·         Art Appreciation

·         Microeconomics

Things I like:

·         Tea

·         Sweaters

·         Bullet journaling

·         Music (singing, guitar, piano, uke—my guitar is named Buchanan and I call him Buke, like Duke, and my uke is called Uku Stevie Jr. You may notice I’m a Stucky fan)

·         Writing

·         ASMR. I just… like listening to it a lot.

·         Hamilton (the Musical, like I need to clarify)

·         Favourite musicians include: EDEN, dodie, Alice Kristiansen and recently Billie Eilish

·         Stationery, stationery, stationery, stationery

·         Sebastian Stan, but he’s a person not a thing, and I love him not like, but hey, sue me

→ 4-7/35 requested color palette aesthetics: succulents, silk sheets, autumn, afterglow made with photoshop cc5 [click for high res] – i know these are unconventional but they’re simple and i guess that’s good right?

Listening to 🎶: The Cab - Symphony Soldier (Album)

It probably may not look like it, but this week has been pretty packed, what with classes really picking up on the speed now that we’re in week 3 of the semester, and I’m working on two club events (secretary for one, sponsorship coordinator for the other), and I’m a DJ for my campus radio for two hours a week. I like keeping busy but I feel like I’ve been slightly procrastinating. I love my bullet journal because it keeps me on track and ticking off everything on the list always makes me feel accomplished, and that sense of having done all I need to do is a reward in itself.

take on me is always stuck in my head, lol
