#Kayla tag rants#ignore me please#rewatching Gilmore girls with my mom#and yes we are close like lorelai and Rory and we talk in references and there for each other#but also with a bit of the stricter mindset of the relationship between Lane and Mrs. Kim#so while my mom is my Lorelai. I know she’s still thinking inside like Mrs. Kim about who I should be when it comes to certain things#and so I know I can’t really talk to her about some things and feel like I can’t talk in general about them#bc I’m not supposed to be dealing with them in the first place to have any anxieties about them#so here I am stewing with my late Dean/early Logan confusion and anxieties trying to navigate it all#and I kind of just want someone to tell me I’m overthinking. or if I’m not thinking at all. but I’d like to think I’m overthinking and fine#bc it seems fine. it feels fine. so it’s fine. right?? ughhhhhh. I’m gonna shut up now.

📚 It girl's guide to school 📚
hiii girls! this is part of the big Guide to being the It Girl. this section will be all about school, studying and academics. i'll teach you how to tackle school, get the highest grades effortlessly, and look chic and gorgeous doing it! the rest of the ultimate it girl series is linked! 🎀
guide to getting good grades:
LISTEN IN CLASS. one of the best tips ever. if you would actually listen to what your teachers teaching in class, you’d get to spend a lot less time studying.
ask if you need help! these teachers are qualified for the job, they’re meant to be good at it. so if you don’t understand something, don’t be afraid to ask. and if you’re really too much of a chicken, ask once the class is over or email the teacher. but honestly? half the kids probably aren’t even listening tbh so u do ur thing!
participate in class. actually participating in class will help you so much in recalling the information. it’s a great way to actively revise. you don’t have to be a teachers pet or anything, but if you know the answer, put yourself out there. anyone who judges you simply judges themselves and their inability to speak up.
change up your environment so that you're still interested and excited to learn! you could go to a coffee shop, set up a mini picnic in the woods, go to a library, etc.
use alter egos!! i will never stop recommending this because it really is an amazing tip. either you can create your own alter ego who loves to study and gets high grades, or you could pretend you're rory gilmore or hermione granger!
revision/ study techniques:
feynman technique: teach it to someone else/ to plushies. try not to look at your notes too much, pretend ur a teacher.
use practice questions/ practice exams! trust me this can be so helpful! try and find past exams and go over them in exam conditions so you can see what u missed later. or, you can get all the info and ask an AI like chatgpt to write questions based on it and go through them!
BLURTING! love this method! basically, you write all the information you know about the topic on one page (optional: set a time limit) and then go over it with a different colour pen and add in what you missed. do this a couple times until you haven't missed anything! - you can do this by creating a mind-map, or literally just scribbling down everything you know.
SQ3R method: survey/ skim over the text, question- make questions on it, read- begin reading to find the answers to the questions, recite- summarise the words in a section in your own words, review- quiz yourself on what you just learnt
organise/ prioritise what you need to study using the traffic light method. first, identify the topics, then highlight them according to these 3 colors: red- struggling a lot/ no idea , yellow- okay ish, need to work on it a bit tho , green- good understanding & confident on the topic.
make associations. this is especially helpful for when you need to memorise things. the thing you need to memorise- link it to stuff that you already know.
⭐️ use mnemonics, songs, raps to remember! a couple years back, my science teacher made us create a rap on osmosis (a biology term). and not even kidding, i still remember the simple definition of what it does because of that rap! so create songs or rap and maybe even make a whole music video on it! trust me, not only is it so fun but it really does help keep the information in your mind!

study icons:
as i mentioned earlier, channelling the energy of a character who already studies and gets good grades is an amazing way of getting yourself motivated! here are some of my favs & tips to study like them! (p.s i've also added links to the names for a more in depth guide on each person!)
♡ rory gilmore
she loves studying- develop that mindset! have a passion for learning more.
"i can go from 0 to studying in less than 60 seconds"
switch between different subjects when you get bored
ask someone to test you with flashcards
♡ elle woods:
study while you exercise- take care of ur body too!
"what, like its hard?"- i love her sm for this!! if anyone else can do something, of course you can do it too!
be ambitious + have strong source of motivation
get into study groups
♡ paris geller
have the discipline and ambition to do the things that will get you to where you want.
"i want to win, and i'm going to win." - love this, she's sure of herself and confident in her abilities.
prioritise & use to do lists
start early to be the top of your class!
♡ blair waldorf
honestly its so fun to embody her energy of high value, cares about her education, so confident and takes no sh*t from others!
"anything you can do, i can do better"
always have a plan
have flash cards, take notes
♡ hermione granger
always participate in class!
read more about the material. + learn more!
teach others & help them study
finish the hw/ work quickly and do the extra credit!
stylish in school 101:
SURVIVING SCHOOL AIR: here are some tips to staying/ looking pretty and refreshed all day at school bc u and i both know the horrors of school air 🙀 :)
DRINK WATER. stay hydrated - very important. always drink water. this keeps your lips hydrated, face hydrated, and just makes you look a lil less dead.
lip gloss/ lip balm to reapply throughout the day, esp for my girlies with chapped lips! i keep lip balm in my pocket so its always there when needed, but you can also keep it in your locker/ bag/ pencil case.
perfume. you can keep it in your locker/ bag/ pencil case to spray whenever needed and smell sweet and amazing the entire day <3
stop touching your face!! your hands have so much crusty dust and bacteria that can give pimples on your face.
keep hair away from your face. leave it out if you want, but try to make sure it doesn't touch your face too much- it also has tons of crusty musty dusty germs
keep a hairbrush in your locker. listen, i know how messy hair can get during school so keeping it in school is SO helpful to maintain the tidyness and cleanliness
waterproof makeup - if you wear makeup.
sunscreen!! keep. applying. SUNSCREENN!! i'm not going to elaborate further on this point.
ACCESSORISING YOUR UNIFORM!!
this is for the girlies who have a school uniform! i understand it can be so annoying so to have more fun and feel more confident, ACCESSORIZEE everything as much as you're allowed! here are some ideas!
♡ necklesses
♡ bracelets
♡ bows in your hair
♡ bows in your bag
♡ bows everywhere basically 🎀
♡ decorate your ipad/ pencilcase with stickers
♡ headbands
♡ rings
♡ cute earrings
♡ cute watch
♡ nails
♡ a cute clip!

study tips: how to get a 4.00 GPA pt 2 🦢
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆
this is the second part of my first post!!
disclaimer: now these tips won't guarantee you getting immediate straight A's, but applying them to your school life will definitely improve it.
#6 act like the main character in a tv show:
this helped SOOO much! acting like that could result in more confidence and encourage you to join in activities as main characters are usually the leaders in a group project, this could help you build ur leadership skills.
#7 find people or characters you aspire to be like:
a character i aspired to be was Rory Gilmore (as i think she was to everyone), even just watching gilmore girls made me be determined to get good grades. Some characters that are academic weapons are: spencer hastings, elle woods, blair waldorf, and paris geller.
#8 behavior:
your behavior is so important. respecting ur teachers, valuing school rules, and helping ur friends are all synonymous with being a great overachieving student. remember to always be polite and respectful whenever approaching anyone!!
#9 change your mindset:
adopting a more positive mindset is the key to being put together during school exams, it improves ur focus and makes you care more about urself than others, which u will then channel into school work.
#10 make vision/pinterest boards:
having a clear image of exactly what u want is so helpful, making vision boards are my favorite things to do. they make me feel very motivated and dedicated to reaching my goals(in this case an A+ student).
now making vision boards is pretty easy, all you need is either a board or A3 paper, glue, scissors, & some pictures!! i would recommend making a list of the goals you want to achieve and searching them up on pinterest, picking the pictures to ur liking then printing them out, cutting them up, and sticking them to the board!
#11 manifesting:
my fav way of manifesting is listening to subliminals. i luv listening to them while doing hw, studying for a test, or even while sleeping. manifesting helps clear ur intentions and goals, because it involves focusing on them to bring them to life. i recommend the law of assumption and attraction.
#12 find study methods that work for you:
there are various study methods to choose from and are all catered to different learning styles. it took me a bit to find the ones that worked for me...🎀
♡ pomodoro method: first u set a timer (for example) for 30 mins of focused learning, then taking a break for 10 minutes.
♡ blurting method: its basically writing all that u understood from ur subject on a piece of paper, then after that reviewing it and looking at the areas where u might have gotten something incorrect.
♡ practice testing: theres many apps that could help u with this like quizlet, but personally i like to make my own practice exam. i primarily just gather the key points from the topic and make up questions about them.
♡ active recall: this requires using flashcards or just actively testing urself about what u remember from the topic.
♡ the Feynman technique: in this method, u essentially teach the topic to someone else(or ur wall or plushie). this can identify gaps in ur understanding.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆
love, heaven

have a role model.
One tip everyone should have, is to have a role model.
A role model is someone you look up to in a certain way for a specific reason, like for their hardworking mindset, grit or skill.
Having a role model is good for multiple reasons, it gives you someone to look up to and admire, which can inspire and motivate you. My role model is Wonyoung!
How do you find a role model?
firstly, find someone who inspires you, it should be someone you find from something your interested in! For me, I found Wonyoung because I liked kpop, and thought the internet movement Wonyoungism. Secondly, find why this person inspires you. For me, I look up to wonyoung because her beauty radiates, confident and elegant presence. Not only that, but she has a kind, hardworking, intelligent and extremely good mindset! Also known as the lucky Vicky mindset. This gave me an outline for who I wanted to be when improving myself!
and lastly, make a manifesto, or a vison board! Yours can b physically or digital. Personally, I used Pinterest, and I also plan on making a notion manifesto. This will motivate and inspire you when looking at it/reading it! Add pictures of your role model, quotes from them, and their aesthetic. “You are you, I am me.” - 🐰
and you don’t just have to have one role model, you can have multiple if you want! Your role model doesn’t have to be a real person either, they can be a fictional character as well.
Here are some ideas for a role model, real and fictional!
Regina George, ell woods, Rory Gilmore, jia song, marilyn monroe, Wonyoung, Maddy Perez or Alexa Demie.
Let me know about a role model you have in to comments!

how to glow up this summer ♡
summer has arrived and school is out , which means you have 1 - 3 months worth of opportunities !! suprise your classmates , friends , families or even yourself as you glow up and enter the new school year absolutely changed !
our plan : :
001 , eat healthier
- try and enjoy the hot , summer day with some mangoes or watermelons as a snack ! make sure to drink lots of water + occasionally treat yourself with some fast food !
002 , stretch // workout
- as soon as you wake up to the beating sun , treat your body with some nice relaxing stretches and pilates ! try and find workout channels
e . g : : hinafit , shirlyn kim etc to change your body ! remember that workouts will be ineffective if you don't eat properly !!
003 , hygiene
- hygiene is a must as most of you will start to sweat due to the sun's heat. remember to apply deodorant & shower properly
004 , mindset // mental health
- you can only truly glow up if you change your mindset, don't pity yourself for your past mistakes and forgive yourself. don't have a victim mindset.
examples of channels to help with this are : :
♡ thewizardliz
♡ freezia
- don't let anything stop you from you being you. you are pretty , gorgeous & unstoppable !!
005 , self care
- try journaling , dancing in the sun , rewatching your favourite movies etc, take care of your body as it takes care of you and you will be amazed with the results !
006 , skincare
- taking care of your skin is an absolute must in this dry , hot weather. apply sunscreen everyday , find out your skin type & shop for whatever benefits your skin the most ! Don't just buy any that is popular on tiktok !!
007 , less screentime
- you can obviously use your phone throughout the day for necessary things but do not waste all of your time on it ! you only have one life ( depending on your belief ) and you can live it in two ways : :
♡ as the earner
or
♡ as the spender
the spender spends all of their time , their money on playing games or buying unnecessary objects etc that will hardly last them. All of this will benefit the earner who has dedicated their time , their money into education , necessary objects etc instead. So who do you want to be ? The earner or the spender ??
008 , study , study , study
- be like Rory Gilmore or Elle woods , someone who spends their time for education. They did not waste their life by doing so , the result of their sacrifice gave them a bright future ! Find out your studying method , find a quiet place , whatever you need to do , just study !!
thank you for reading !
need more tips ?? join my discord server ::

How about that time when ASP bragged that Rory only had her first time when she was 19/20 or something, wasn’t it weird that she was so proud of that, especially when she “made” her have such a lousy first time, married man and all?
Why was Rory being a virgin until “late” that groundbreaking for ASP, I wonder?
If I’m not mistaken she was shading other teen shows that had their protagonists/leading ladies having their first times earlier, and idk once again it just looks like she digs shaming girls for having sex.
Personally, I used to love that Rory was still a virgin until college bc I could relate to her even more because of that, haha, I just got kinda disappointed that Amy seemed to see it as some sort of quality?
Sorry, English is not my first language so idk if I’m expressing myself very well, but yeah I’m curious to o know more opinions about this.
The way I understand it, Amy was under a lot of pressure from the network to make Rory "sexier." But why should a teenage girl character HAVE TO have sex to be a worthwhile or relatable character? She shouldn't! But that kind of mindset was what ASP was pushing back against, and maybe it's an unpopular opinion, but I actually really appreciated that. What you have to understand is that when I grew up watching teen media from the 80s and 90s (and going into the early 2000s), there was persistent messaging that still being a "virgin" by the time you graduated from highschool was kind of embarrassing. Losing your virginity was widely viewed as some sort of necessary "milestone" instead of a very personal and optional choice. (Especially for boys, but there was a lot of that for girls in TV and movies also) It wasn't until right around the turn of the millennium that I remember starting to see movies/shows that QUESTIONED that idea, that started asking well, WHY, though? When there started occasionally being characters who expressed that they shouldn't HAVE to have sex just to fit in. That it should be a PERSONAL choice. And like, I'm not a historical scholar- I haven't done a STUDY of whether this is accurate or not, but this is what it FELT LIKE to me as a teenager. And it FELT LIKE Rory was a really refreshing character for nerdy girls like me and my friends- that it was OKAY if you hadn't had sex yet. It was OKAY for a teenage girl to be focused more on academic or career aspirations rather than "losing her V-card," or that maybe she just doesn't feel ready yet, and it doesn't make her a "loser" or a "prude!" Like, that felt like SUCH a rare thing! ASP wanted to write a character like that, partly because it hadn't been done much, and she got a lot of pushback from the Network about it (which is kind of gross?). And I just... don't think that necessarily means that she was "slut shaming" anyone else.
I confess to being surprised when I started seeing people on here saying that Gilmore Girls had a "negative" view of sex. (This got long, sorry!)
Like, Lorelai has an active sex life with a variety of different partners over the course of the series, and that seems to be portrayed as normal and morally neutral. Sookie has an active and healthy sex life. When Rory is sleeping with Logan in college, the narrative seems to paint Richard and Emily (and the unfortunate Reverend they brought in) as ridiculous and controlling for objecting. Paris and Doyle have an active and enthusiastic sex life, and the narrative doesn't seem to judge them for it... I do admit that there does seem to be a pattern of unfortunate "first times" for the younger characters, but I wonder if that's more about Amy's addiction to "drama" than her views on sex. About Paris specifically, I always interpreted her paranoia about being "punished" for having sex as being commentary about how SOCIETY judges girls for having sex (because Reality for girls was a lot different from the pop culture fantasy norms). Gilmore Girls just wasn't interested in portraying some kind of "ideal world." They were just "putting these guys in Situations." And I mean... it's a show largely about generational trauma stemming from a teenage pregnancy! The characters are going to have some complicated and probably even unhealthy feelings about sex! And can I be honest for a minute? Much like attitudes towards our bodies, I'm honestly a proponent of what I'm going to call "sex neutrality." Because, yeah, sex is supposed to be fun and feel good and even be beautiful... And ideally it is! But sometimes it's not. Sometimes it's bad or painful or awkward or emotionally messy or damaging or degrading. Are we supposed to pretend that doesn't happen? Because it does. Are TV characters just not supposed to acknowledge that side of it? I don't know. I don't think Gilmore Girls is a perfect show. I don't agree with everything ASP thinks or everything the characters do. But I do think sometimes viewers want to see some kind of "message" where there just isn't one. Anyway, this is just my opinion, and I may be wrong about one or several things! 😆

Rebrand
Good morning , I’m going talk about me reprogramming my mind. In another post I talked about listening to my sub playlist and getting on Reddit. When I had the best mindset, I watched Gilmore girls. Rory Gilmore is the best for motivation. She is what type of school girl I want to be. She’s productive, makes time to study, gets involved with school, etc. watching this show brings me closer to my desire self. I also started meditating again. I was in a terrible mental state and my advice to people who were like me — terrible self concept and desperate— you should try to find things that make you feel better.
The first, thing I did this morning instead of getting on TikTok like I typically do, I got on YouTube and watched a motivational video. I know not getting on your phone for the first 30 minutes when you wake up is better, but slow change is better than no change. As for today, I plan to listen to my subs, read at least a chapter of my book. Finish my work before I go to bed.
