Learning new languages is so weird because suddenly your brain recognizes new words and you start to think in that language and i just love that feeling of being able to listen to others and being able to understand them and it’s so weird when you don’t even actively notice that you are listening to another language anymore

What are your top tips for dealing with a bad grade or failing a class? :-)

[goyangistudy]

My new study method: I summarize the book; I prefer typed notes because they are faster and I dont have time. Then I print them out, I read them again and annotate them. Then I make mind maps and then i begin to repeat and repeat.

Right now its working. We’ll see.

sorry for the COMPLETE lack of posts recently - i was struggling with APs haha, but now they are all done!!:)))

–> studygram!

[goyangistudy]

a list of things every studyblr experiences

failure

stress

disappointing results

procrastination

problems finding a work, life and study balance

nervousness

not always great or consistent grades

varying degrees of mental health issues

situations out of our control

that ‘i’m not good enough’ feeling

anxiousness

lazy days

regret

tiredness

burning out 

low confidence

sickness

and many more

having a study blog does not mean that person is a perfect human with everything in life on track, in balance and with complete happiness. as a community, we need to remember not everything goes to plan and no-one should be expected or seen as perfect x

making it through high school

i’m graduating this week and i wanted to make a post of advice (academic, social, and self care) that i learned throughout high school

academic

if you have a bad teacher, read/take your own notes on the textbook! it can be tedious but it pays off on the test, since the test is most likely going to be based on the book.

do your homework and do it well. even if assignments are only 20% of your grade, doing your homework will help you so so so much on test day.

on that note, do your homework as soon as you can after school. get it over with and just think about how much more relaxed you’ll feel when it’s done (you might have to literally force yourself- just tell yourself you only have to work for five minutes, and once you start you’ll want to finish it)

don’t buy so many new school supplies!! buy a few of those Mead refillable notebooks or their flexible binders, some highlighters, and a pack of muji 0.7 pens on amazon and you should be covered.

start thinking about post high school plans early- whether it’s 2 year college, 4 year college, military, starting work, etc.

unless it’s a big project, stop doing ur homework at midnight and just go to bed. not all nights are going to be easy, but you should try to make cramming homework late at night an occasional thing

social

be loyal to your friends, you’ll be happy to have good friends later on

don’t date someone if you know you shouldn’t!!!

watch how much you drink if you go party- make it your goal to not throw up (also there’s no point if you don’t remember the night)

leave people that make you sad, it isn’t worth the drama or heartbreak

^^^ also avoid drama as much as possible (AKA don’t talk shit, don’t start shit, don’t take shit)

these are my three commandments for getting over a shitty relationship: 1) unfollow 2) block 3) delete. use them (unfollow on social media, block them so they don’t see what you post, and delete old photos and conversations. phones/social media make it so much harder to get over someone)

be friendly to everyone! you don’t need to be friends with everyone, but just be nice. high school is already hard, don’t make it worse

self care

S L E E P

find a hobby outside of school- it can be an extracurricular or just something you do at home. but find something you love (things to try: guitar/piano! learn another language online! reading! skateboarding! weight training/body scupting! running! art! etc!)

read outside of school, learn outside of school

hang out with relatives/family more. you might get annoyed by your parents at this point, but remember that you’re like the biggest thing that has happened to them. hang out with your siblings/ cousins, ask your grandparents about their childhoods and culture before it’s too late. (unless your family is abusive, this piece of advice is more for people like me whose family was good but i treated my parents badly and my grandparents died before i could get to know them. it’s just me)

make sure you eat something fresh every day- i know it’s hard to eat healthily when you’re a teenager and your friends always get mcdonalds, but jus make sure you have some fruit/vegetables every day

get a small job if you can, it feels good to make your own money. save as much as you can of it! (my rule was save hundreds, spend tens. so if i got $447 on a paycheck, i’d save $400 and spend $47. you really dont need to be spending that much at this point, saving will do more good)

there is obv. more advice you could be given, but these are some of the most important things i’ve learned throughout high school. learn from my mistakes pls and good luck!! it goes by fast

« sun; feb 12 » studying & doing my readings for my pharmacology class. i think i’m in love with these pastel stabilo highlighters.

[goyangistudy]

concept: it’s exam season and you’re studying morning and afternoon, taking breaks in between, eating proper meals and enjoying the fresh air when you get a chance to. you’re still hanging out with your friends and you’re still doing things outside of revision. you have bad days in which you don’t revise and you know it’s okay because you know you’re not a machine and you need to take care of your health. and this is you doing your best and I am so proud of you.

[goyangistudy]

Quick reminder, especially for you younger undergrads: Discipline is a skill, not a character trait. And just like any skill, it can be practiced and improved upon incrementally. Try not to get discouraged if you have a day, or multiple days, where you are less disciplined than you would like or need to be. Don’t quit. Don’t spend the next week binging Netflix because you think it’s a hopeless endeavour. Just get up the next day and try again. Each day you try is more practice, and each day you practice, you’ll get a little bit better, and that continual improvement will pay dividends in the long run.

Keep at it.

03-09-17 Weekly spread for the last week of August and first week of September! Hooray! Been productive lately and happy with the inspo words i have sticked here! Also i want to remind you (yes, you who’s reading this). You don’t need to have a super beautiful notes, “you are your own aesthetic” u create your own beauty and the right people will appreciate it. Let’s support each other and uplift everyone! ╰(｡◕‿◕｡)╯

[goyangistudy]

OH MY GOD whyyyy did no one tell me you’re supposed to send thank-yous after interviews?? Why would I do that???

“Thank you for this incredibly stressful 30 minutes that I have had to re-structure my entire day around and which will give me anxiety poos for the next 24 hours.”

I HATE ETIQUETTE IT’S THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE THING FOR ME TO LEARN WITHOUT SOMEONE DIRECTLY TELLING ME THIS SHIT

[goyangistudy]

stupid things that nobody tells you about studyblr aesthetic

like 99.9999% of people have that little excess ink when you use a highlighter its so normal i cant even

dont beat yourself up over slightly wonky lines??? you can fix it later just dont dont dont

handwriting doesnt even matter if its legible write legibly aesthetic doesnt even matter tbh

your notes!!!! are fine!!!!! 99% chance that if you put effort into them someone will compliment you

not unrelated there was this girl w these amazing!!! physics notes and she was like ohh but they’re not as aesthetic as yours and its like??? bro??? im reading your notes right now what does this say about mine lmao

sometimes bullet journals are overrated

sometimes expensive planners are overrated

dont drop a ton of money on a notebook if you have tested out the paper with your main stationery because you’ll  r e g r e t

testing paper!!!! is so important like knowing what you’re writing on makes a difference 

but also who gives its just paper?? if it doesnt matter that much to you dont sweat it just use what makes you feel comfortable

everybody has their own preferences like i prefer light grey dots or maybe a grid if i have to but nO! BLACK! LINES!!!! but i have friends who love those notebooks with heavy lines bc it makes them feel grounded its all about doing what you love

legit buying mildliners doesnt even matter that much dont bother they’re overpriced like 999999% of the time

muji !!!! is lowkey overrated dont buy overpriced products bc its Not Worth It its like a nicer jp target no not really but also completely

forget ab the name brands bc that doesn’t even matter!!!! if you like what you’re using then use it !!! if your method is efficient then use it!!!! and if you’re really trying to develop an aesthetic it’ll come to you through what you already have

like ofc its ok to look at other people for inspo and stuff just your aesthetic is your own!!! its like a tree !! every single tree is different!!! but they’re all still wonderful right??? so let your aesthetic grow!!!!

good luck bro !!!! have fun planting those aesthetic (memes) <3
