Life's a pecha

[myhoneststudyblr]

something crazy just happened...

i started this blog a year and a half ago and i honestly never imagined i would reach 100 followers let alone 15k!!! so i want to thank you ALL for being so lovely, welcoming and supportive - whenever i come on to tumblr, the studyblr community never fails to make me smile

this studyblr has been such an important journey for me and since i’ve made it i’ve grown as a person and as a student. it has taught me so much, from good study habits and self-care tips, to even some things about who i am as a person!

since i’ve created this blog and particularly in the past few months I've had the honour to meet and get to know some truly incredible people and i want to tag some people who i love and im so thankful to for being so kind: 

(you should all go follow their blogs if you haven’t already)

(btw it is probably gonna be quite long cause i have so much to say about these incredible people!!! sorry but im not really sorry XD)

@redlitmusbluelitmus MIA!!! i have already told you so many times how glad i am that you are my friend but i am going to do it again right here cause i can!! you are quite possibly the nicest, funniest and supportive people i have ever had the pleasure to meet. we haven't known each other for that long but in that time you quickly became an amazing friend and we have always just *got* each other!!! 💕💕💕

@study-van yasemin - our first conversation was pretty much a car crash and every one since has made me laugh and look like a proper idiot cause im usually just staring at my phone! i’ve followed your blog for so long and i’m so proud of all the amazing things you are doing and i’m so glad to have you as a friend after so stalking your blog for so long 💕

@museeofmoon zainab!!! we’ve known each other only for a short time now but our friendship was pretty much immediate!!! our conversations are filled with emojis, emoticons, capitals letters and XDs and i wouldn’t have it any other way!!!!! your posts are works of art and i will forever stan them <3

@headgirlstudy Ellie - discovering your blog was one of the best things to come out of my 2020 quarantine challenge cause you have this incredible style and simple beauty to your posts that i just can’t get enough of! i’ve loved having our fangirl conversations about taylor swift and all her incredible songs! you probably don’t know this but one of those conversations took place when i was feeling very low but discussing all the songs with you lifted me up so much so thank you xxx

@jeonchemstudy DAPHNE!!! if i ever create a bujo, i want it to look like yours because honestly, i don't understand how you managed to create such beauty!! we are interested in such similar things and it’s been so cool to find a fellow Gallagher girl lover (i was so shook when i found out you loved the books cause i usually feel very alone in my loved of them XD) and someone who is obsessed with last week tonight as me!!! x

@bulletnotestudies sabrina... you are just incredible and such a joyful person!!! i will always remember you messaging me when i posted that i was stressed about an exxay exam and your message was the last thing i saw before doing it and honestly if gave me such a boost! you’re positivity and supportiveness blows me away and i want many many more conversations with you xxx

@lattesandlearning laura - you were one of the most dedicated posters throughout the quarantine challenge and i loved seeing each and every one of your posts! i’m so glad to be following your journey and seeing what you’ve accomplished even in the short amount of time that I've known you <3

@upside-down-uni mo!!! another incredibly dedicated poster in the quarantine challenge and one that i always specifically looked out for! you and your blog have truly opened my eyes to other experiences and educated me more than you know just from your responses and posts! i always see that you like my posts and even on my dumb little text posts you often reply and it always makes me smile! i’m so glad that you’ve created this officially studyblr and thankful to you for making the community even more colourful 🌈

@coffeeandpies pat, i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again but you are the basically the third person that i followed in the studyblr community and to think that we’ve actually had conversations and we are friends and mutuals is downright crazy to me because you are imo just one of those iconic blogs!!! you are a beautiful person inside and out and your text posts are hilarious and tell the best stories. thank you so much for being so lovely <3

@coralstudiies you were the first person ever to really message me on tumblr and i remember being so shook because i think your blog is just mind blowingingly incredible! every picture of your notes looks like a work of art and i don’t know how you manage to make them look so perfect!!!

@problematicprocrastinator beth, you are a pillar of positivity in this community and your supportiveness and openness is at a level that i aspire to! your morning messages are usually the first thing i see (at least when i still was going to school on the bus every morning before all of the corona stuff) and it always gave me a little boost for the day! you are an incredible writer and your dedication to supporting everyone in this community is amazing <3 (also your blog name is probably the best one i’ve ever seen and i’m so jealous ngl)

i could wax lyrical about every studyblr i know but this post is getting really long so here are more of my favourites (just know that if you are in this list i have a little monologue about how amazing you are in my head and i appreciate you so much 💕💕💕)

@chazza-studies-alevels @stuhde @captainofstudies @sosiaalitieteet @elleandhermione @mid-afternoon-tea @athenastudying @learning-to-think @serendistudy @philology-studies @rivkahstudies @emili-a-a @nabasynth @divinity-study @cals-desk @abbieestudia @studywithprincess @studybuddiesareoverrated @casual-minimalist @stu-dna @coffe-in-cup @adelinestudiess @intellectys @eintsein @einstetic

there are so so many more that could be added to this list and i’m sure i’ve forgotten people!! basically i ADORE every single person in this community and i’ve loved getting to know all of you and i hope i’ll be able to meet more people in the next few years 💕💕💕

May I request dating headcanons with the DR1 girls? If that's too many, than you can pick four of your choice

ooh this has to be my favorite request so far!

Dating Headcanons for Mukuro, Sakura, Junko (despair-less), and Sayaka!

they deserve love! ( probably not junko but here we go)

Mukuro Ikusaba

protective girl

like she is overly protective of you from junko.

(she would probably kill junko for you ngl, when she figures out her sister is basically using her.)

anyways for dates!

you guys go to fairs and the first thing you too always go to is those water gun games.

like mukuro is somehow r e a l l y good at them. she also does the basic stuffed animal games and wins stuff animals for you lol.

also since we are talking about dates

then let’s talk about laser tag

you should already know this since she’s the ultimate soldier so she basically whoops your ass in this.

literally.

anyways you make her blush, a lot.

which is so cute!!!

anyways 10/10 mukuro deserves love and happiness since this is a super cute and soft relationship I need hehe.

Sakura Ogami

another girl I’ll die for.

also another protective girl but she’s calm. well actually YOU are the protective one.

anyways for dates you guys have picnics under the Sakura trees or look at the stars during the night (that’s probably an kaito thing to do lol)

For sure you always go to her tournaments an cheer her on like the cutie you are.

also if someone calls her an ogre they are having an meeting with your fist. Which Sakura stops you before you can even lay an finger with them.

she really calms you down a lot and you really feel lucky having her as your girlfriend!

as she does too feeling glad that your her lovely s/o

10/10 give me an relationship you guys have.

Junko Enoshima (non-despair au)

lmao get mikaned there is no junko goodbye.

...

...

Fine.

Junko and you are basically the couple on which junko is the hot girl

that everybody wants and you are the person that is the “lucky one”

anyways since junko is the ultimate despair Fashionista you have an one way ticket to going to all of her:

meet and greets

fashion shows

magazine shoots

and trips to othe country’s.

also she spoiles you like

ALOT

want that? it’s sold by Junko Enoshima

want this? you got it!

but for dates it’s basically like buying out the entire mall or going somewhere fancy like Paris like in those basic “let’s go to Paris since some random family member I never heard of lives in there!!!!”

yeah that.

but junko damn is a good girlfriend. I mean only if you want me to do the really toxic Junko Enoshima or something like the canon one?

Here’s the rating 6/10 only because I dislike junko a little bit and we should still know junko isn’t a good person, like at ALL.

Sayaka Maizono

I don’t get why the fandom calls her an snake. I mean sure she’s probably tried to kill makoto but she’s still super precious and cute.

ok you guys are relationship goals.

I mean seriously.

you both are know to be an POWER COUPLE in hopes peak.

you guys are both sweet and cute and make up the mood cheer up everytime you guys are around.

for dates you guys go to ice skating rinks or picnics without some fans getting in your lovely relationship.

for concerts you get an front row seat with your name on it.

It makes you blessed to have an girlfriend like her.

she will and would pull you up to the stage to sing with her.

the fans finally figure out sayaka has an lover oh god

they go

Wild

to fan art to fan fiction it’s wild.

also you guys basically become an idol couple duo with the others.

... oops

6466346245/10 give me an relationship like that rn.

I have to say I’m totally not fan being an fan girl over sayaka and the reader’s relationship since it’s the cutest thing I had ever did in my life.

anyways I’ll be trying to work on some more requests now bye bye!

fic recs (part 1?)

hi!!! so @n3tn0b0dy sent me an ask about fic recs, and i am stupid so it took me a few mins to like. compose myself and figure out what this is. i am definitely absolutely going to miss a few fics here, which is why it is a part one. i will probably keep this short-ish??? maybe go into more detailed ones later :eyes: 

(i am realizing i am going to write essays for these and for that i am very sorry)

something close to domestic, maybe by @mystxmomo (hi!)

definitely one of my favorite danganronpa fics, currently and (probably) forever. it’s a mature rated kamukoma fic, following an AU in which, instead of the remnants being captured and taken to jabberwock, despair sort of... fizzles out on its own, leaving the remnants of despair-- and the rest of the world-- to sort of heal with it. it’s in a series with another fic, that is in the same universe but following a different narrative with different central characters, and though it only has one chapter rn i highly rec that too. 

i like this fic for many reasons and to avoid prattling on, i will bullet point it.

- easy to follow. there are not overly complex structures-- not that that is inherently a bad thing, i also tend to love that style-- which makes it easy to digest.

- strong emotional impact. this fic has made me cry very, very often.

- really good characterization. mystxmomo is very good with characterization overall, especially with kamukura and servant, and that really shows with this fic.

- a compelling plot that still retains a slice-of-life format. i don’t really know how else to elaborate here.

- an idiosyncratic look into their dynamic. this fic explores kamukoma in the process of them healing, which is pretty distinctively different to a lot of kamukoma fics. obviously, this is not to shade those other fics, but, yeah. i really like it. 

okay sorry for rambling very much there, i really highly recommend it, it is a ongoing multichapter (i should have said that earlier i apologize) and the writer is also very cool. 

--

postscript by zombiekittiez

this is actually a series. it currently has three fics-- one that is fully completed (defy you stars), one that is a completed oneshot (supersonic man outta you), and an ongoing multichapter with pretty frequent updates (prince of a thousand). this follows a post-SDR2 storyline, with a lot of ships and dynamics within it, but heaviest emphasis on komahina. 

more bullet points! yay 

- the characterization is god-fucking-tier. this author is very, very good at characterizing these characters and i will not shut up about it ever actually. they feel real, and distinct, and flawed, and alive, and i love everything about it.

- good exploration of dynamics! i think the latter two fics especially shows this off really well. the friendships and relationships built are all pretty different from each other, but all feel like a pretty natural progression, sticking true to the characters, and feels very... real. which i like a whole hell of a lot.

- there are so many literature references and i am happy about it. there are also sparknotes-ish things at the ending notes of each chapter, which translates the quote, explains the significance within its own text, and applies it to the fanfiction. they are used in ways that make sense, too-- they don’t feel forced.

- the plot and plot building is SO fucking good. prince of a thousand has so many cliffhangers and i am very happy but also dying.

anyway, i really rec this series! be mindful of the tags and the ratings on some of the fics, but they are really, really good reads.

absent mind by galaxyaqua

okay. this is a v3 oneshot rec, exploring pregame rantaro, as well as his relationship with tsumugi shirogane. it’s rated “teen and up audiences”, and. holy shit, okay.

- the writing style of this is GORGEOUS. i don’t know what it is about the writing style, but it feels so much like rantaro is talking, which is so fucking cool, and i love that so fucking much??? i can’t even explain it, but it is seriously super neat. 

- the EMOTIONS. this fic is so fucking emotional, honestly? it shows you this realistic, flawed, you could consider broken, character, shows them finding some hope, and shows the loss that comes with that. it’s so fucking incredible, and the lines have stuck with me even now, and it’s been a bit since i’ve last read. i think about the last couple lines especially a lot.

- these impactful one liners. holy shit. every line means something in this fic, and it’s so fucking cool and incredible, and i just??? holy shit??? i really love this fic???

i will say that this fic is sort of depressing in places, but i highly, and i mean highly, recommend. it is not a super difficult read, and it’s super, super fucking good. so i really recommend it.

this sickness will save us by starrylitme // i believe this is @magioftheseas i am super sorry if it isn’t

okay. super, super fucking big content warning. this fic is a yikes, and the tags can sum it up a LOT better, but yeah. just keep that in mind. 

that being said, this is a really gorgeously written oneshot centered around soulmate au kamukoma, exploring the sort of... unhealthy aspects of their relationship. and i. Wow. okay.

- these fucking one liners. holy SHIT. i remember some of these scenes and lines so very well, and it does live in my head rent free. 

- the tone of this. the tone, and the mood created, is so fucking... i don’t even know how to describe it. terrifying? eerie? super fucking intriguing? it shows this shitty situation in an appropriately terrifying light, and it inflects so much emotion and connotation into the scenes, and holy shit. like, if i wanted to do a case study of incredible tonal work and diction and all, i would absolutely grab this fic.

- the characterization. while kamukura and komaeda are placed in a very interesting predicament, they still manage to stay pretty damn close to being in character, which i personally think is super remarkable. it almost enhances the circumstances too, ngl. 

- their dynamic. their dynamic in this fic is NOT healthy, and that is shown in full “glory”, in a very messy and dysfunctional and terrifying way, and i absolutely love it. it has a kind of realism to it, almost a cautionary tale but not quite, a sort of “this isn’t very good but it still feels grounded in realism”. and wow. Wow. it’s so fucking good.

mind the tags, but definitely rec this one. 

-- 

some scattered accounts i will gush about and if they have a tumblr account i will do my best to tag it. 

@kidcarma, same name on ao3. 

- okay, cam is just super fucking talented with characterization, and i adore all of their fics so fucking much? the way they characterize komaeda, kamukura, and hinata resonate super hard, and i just. really love their stuff. they are also absolutely wonderful so please support them do it why aren’t you doing it just kidding haha unle

@celestial-nova, celestial_nova on ao3

- nova is my best friend and i fucking love her, also her writing is fucking art. does a lot of naegiri and some stuff out of this fandom, but i seriously recommend her stuff. she’s really fucking talented and absolutely incredible and i adore her so very much. 

sinnohremaker on ao3

- their stuff is MAJORLY cathartic to me and they are also super sweet, love them a lot.

shutupnerd on ao3

- SHE IS REALLY TALENTED, I LOVE HER WORKS!! they are also super cool and i just appreciate her a lot fksdc,mxv, her fic “an account of events” is really good

@whatsupscythia, hinataisnothim on ao3

- i fucking love her writing, does some really good hinata prose, highly recommend it

----

i am ABSOLUTELY forgetting people, i am ABSOLUTELY forgetting fics, and i am ABSOLUTELY going to bash my head into a wall when i realize i have forgotten people, but uhm here is an impromptu list. i hope this was good? idk how to do fic recs. uhm yes support all these people they are dope

[giantpredatorymollusk]

We need some standards here people. I need things to be better

to what extent is this blog me? i need it to not be me so that i can criticize it uncompromisingly. and it kind of isn't because even i'm not me. i'm (gestures vaguely) over there somewhere alternately asleep and receiving information about myself with abject horror. but it also has to be me a little bit or else what do i care what's even on it. i mean sometimes i'm like "this is not for anyone else's benefit i just like to laugh at things" but usually it's more like "there is probably some benefit to using social media semi-socially!" so that's cleared up. on to the uncompromising criticism:

Post 1: “IF YOU’RE NOT CHICKEN POST THIS ON YOUR PAGE AND SEE WHAT PEOPLE RATE YOU!!!!!!” This I think is unimpeachable. I have this one twice (once to rate Grace, once to rate B, which was pretty easy actually both times) but it’s worth looking at twice I think and it makes things more interesting to do this with the platform a little differently.

Post 2: Video of a dog getting squished by a door. This is like… evocative? But I need to stop tagging everything “oh no.” And it might be overly sad? Like, in a cynical pessimistic miserable way? Live, suffer and die? “I am a dog and God is closing an automatic door on me over and over?” Why is the door closing when the dog is laying there anyway, shouldn’t it sense that something’s there? Maybe the dog is not heavy enough to register in that way. So good, but should probably should have had more meaning wrung out of it somehow.

Post 3: The See What People Rate You again.

Post 4: Original text post, “at least i don’t foolishly rely on happiness to make me happy” abstractly sadposting? Some of the background noise in my head. Probably more sad and abstract than absolutely necessary.

Post 5: This is where it starts to fall apart. I like the idea but in practice it’s just kind of a non-sequitur? If Deadpool was running from something that it made more sense to run from it might seem more meaningful. TBH I probably just reblogged it because it reminded me of this John Darnielle quote about Up the Wolves: “The direction in which you’re headed is not the direction in which you want to go, yet you’re going to head that way a while longer anyway cause that’s just the kind of person you are.”

Post 6: Youtube screenshot: “Awww shittttd!!!!! Escaping the cops and teaching you how to double-clutch” This is fairly broad humor? I can see how this might have given him the wrong idea. I do think it’s funny. But you kind of have to view it ironically to really find it funny? It lacks sincerity, overall. Who knows

Post 7: “me: *thinks back to a childhood memory* / me: someone….. probably should have been a little worried.” Pretty generic but nonetheless relatable. Yeah I’m overusing “#oh no.”

Post 8: This is like… a non-joke? A joke for people to not-laugh at? Stimulating without being meaningful. And, using this dialogue as background audio just because it's easy to make fun of. 1.5/5.

Post 9: Classic banter between some lads. Good reaction image. It’s not like goooood though? It feels like a bit of a space-filler.

Post 10: “tumblr user: *sees japanese strawberry milk* o fuck i cant not reblog that” ngl, this is pretty hard to analyze.

Post 11: ASCII cat holding umbrella for other ASCII cat. I just really like this gif. The street sign thing (?) on the left is kind of distracting though? It helps anchor the image in a kind of a place but also draws attention to the overall lack of detail and the fact that there’s no background.

Post 13: Obviously this was a thing that I needed to do. However the compliments I gave were kind of aloof and lofty? Abstract even? Impersonal? Problematic.

Post 14: Eroded lamb grave markers. I think it’s art.

Post 15: “I got the most relatable spam email: Hi/1 quastion/Hi I need To be loved.” Is this why I have this Tumblr? Is this what I think I'm accomplishing by writing this very essay? Aside from the fact that it's Saturday night?

Axes of criticism: Overly broad, too insincere, stimulating but meaningless. These... are not real criticisms I suspect? This is like the superficial stuff. Looking at a blog: "It's no different, really, from meeting another person. One has a reaction to the person physically. Also, there’s a metaphysical thing, and if a meeting of people is meaningful, it affects both their lives." (Bernard Newman said this about a painting once but I'm stealing it for this.) But the sense of that is what's missing. This blog may be difficult to sync up with. For probably the same reason as why I've never had a popular post. I don't want to have a popular blog with popular posts but I would dearly love just to understand why exactly I don't. Probably because I don't self-actualize enough? At the very least on here? I don't really leave myself super open to being understood at all
