I usually try to start studying earlier, but somehow this always ends up happening. Prime example of a stressed college student running on caffeine and determination the night (or morning…) before an exam.

Note to self: plan ahead better when the next midterm comes around in two weeks

100 Days of Productivity - Day 107/100 January 25, 2018

And the economics continues. Note taking for this subject is so time consuming! I am going to have to establish a more efficient system when I get back to school, seeing as all my subjects are content-heavy essay subjects. If any one has any tips on how they manage subjects like these, please share!

i absolutely hate it when advice posts tell you to study all the time. i just read one that said, “if you sleep now, you’ll dream. if you study now, you’ll live your dream.” i mean, it could be metaphorical, but it’s actually a really unhealthy message. studying constantly is not healthy. you need to have a balanced life. you need to have a social life, you need to exercise, you need to sleep. how on earth can you be the best version of yourself if you only study? look after yourself. get at least 6 hours sleep a night. eat healthy food. go outside and see your friends. do things that you love. studying constantly, through the night and day, is not good for you at all. and it’s time that the studyblr community learned that.

“when you’re in university or college, nobody is gonna babysit you. there’s no bell that goes off when it’s class time. there’s no attendance. you can skip all the classes if you want to. you really just have to take everything into your own hands and make the most of your experience…everything you need to succeed is right in front of you.” —kassie isabelle
