me, a responsible being, working on the coding project as I should vs. me, a dysfunctional shithead, getting distracted by reading about brains (once aGAIN damnit (it's my favorite "I need to study my field but bc I should do that it's an impossible unthinkable feat now, so I'm reading about something else to fool my brain I'm still being productive"-topic))
#but after my thesis me & brains have been on a break bc got tired reading abt them during that (bc I had a topic that sorta allowed me to#sidetrack to brain stuff also) but seems I'm over the brain overload now#yay? i guess#also no one who actually studies medicine/brains/etc. yell at me abt wikipedia and like ''why are u studying that like that''#I'm just going through the wikipedia & reading article abstracts path; nothing serious#also my procrastination has reached inhuman levels like it's a full-time job now#bc I have like a chill week's worth of work to do and then I've done the courses for my bachelor's degree#but sending in that ''heyy i'm done with the courses let me graduate''-thing fills me up with sO MUCH anxiety & dread I'm working so slow#now (even tho couldn't send that in for like a month bc gotta first wait the courses to be graded and stuff so in actuality I should#not be slowing down even a bit bc I need to finally be done with this damn degree asap; gotta move on and should've ages ago (it's actually#super bad how late I'm with it (1.5 mf years jesus christ; I'm not even like a little bit proud abt getting a degree anymore like I'm sorta#just embarrassed if I have to tell ppl like ''yea I graduated'' bc dude ?? only now?? u were supposed to be done with that 1.5year#ago what have u been doing (fuck if I know) so I'm keeping it like ''if anyone asks'' basis)))#(the tags and parantheses started a life of their own lol sorry abt that)#studyblr#studyspo#bookblr#booklr#study#november 2024#2024

it's ironic that, for someone who is able to speak several languages, my ability to verbally communicate disappears really often
#bad mental health moment👺#i swear i didn't want to disappear for 3 months it just happened#idk how to tag this#srsly why is talking to people so hard. why is my brain so silly#langblr#languages#language learning#polyglot#studyblr#memes#foreign languages#avpd#← look at me coming out in tags. pathetic#autism#← don't have a diagnosis but starting to consider the possibility. heard about autistics having this sort of problems as well#social anxiety#← this is a classic. i hate classics though /j

Honestly feel like a mess lol. The past few weeks/months I have managed to stay on track pretty well but this whole week was such a mess tbh everything is so disorganized in my head and in my room 🥲 It feels like I was untying a complex knot and making some progress and then stepped away for a few mins and now have no idea where to start to get back on track again 😔😭

#also too many ppl have been reaching out to me to do stuff fhdhd I’m so overwhelmed#like my dad… 3 aunties… a few friends… a friend from middle school (!!) and even a possible new friend from my internship#like. my brain is gonna explode#oh and also a potential suitor#🥲🥲🥲 ok now that write all that down I’m starting to understand why I feel like such a mess#I’m gonna try to make a list today#my sleep was busted today too lol I only slept a few hours due to Noise#make dua for me 🤧#notes#studyblr#studyspo

I really want to make a series of posts explaining in simple terms the different maths/physics concepts I struggled with when I first learnt them.
Would anyone be interested in it 👀👀?
#studyblr#physics#maths#stem#studyinspo#academia#misa talks#I might even start explaining on posts stuff I am learning rn#I am too awkward with face to face interaction so Feynman method would probably work here#why did I never think of it omg#misa's undergrad journey#but yeah if anyone is struggling with concepts of physics and maths (hs level at least I don't know how much I can help of uni)#please let me know I'd love to make posts explaining them#if you've seen the previous post I reblogged yes this is inspired by it

heres a little summary of my summer so far :) i took a weekend bookmaking workshop back in june that was actually taught by one of the admissions counselors i work with! i made a fun little book of smaller books where i mostly just played with materials and folding techniques. ive made friends with one of my coworkers and we've been hanging out going to arcades and yard sales (where i got the soup mugs!!) my partner and i got ice cream from salt & straw multiple times because we're obsessed with the blackberry flavors lol and ive been reading the southern reach trilogy and thoroughly enjoying them !! hope everyone is enjoying the season :3
#im trying to enjoy the activities i do but the heat is NOT helping.. why was it 96 degrees when we went to the yard sale *cries*#i wont lie i am looking forward to the school semester starting again in like a month im getting kinda bored out here#and i want the rain to come back plsss#study blog#studyblr#student#study#study aesthetic#college student#studyspo#productivity#university#academia#c.txt

Love when I have a great idea for a new project which I find fun and mentally stimulating. Hate when I have the idea while I really need to wrap up another project I've lost a lot of passion for
Anyone have tips for staying motivated and on track when you just want a project to be OVER? I'm so close but loosing steam so fast 😭
#genuinely asking for tips#i really really really wanna start a new project but i NEED to finish this one#and i'm so close to done but writing and editing the article is the hardest part#love my mentor to death but the amount of theory and rigorous editing we are doing is making me crazy#this is why im not actually an anthropologist despite her best efforts </3#I do not have the mental wherewithal to do that intense type of work long term#college#studyblr#school#studying#university#citrusstudies#AAAAAAAA IM LOSING IT

I don't tend to track my reading all that much, but I noticed that I was starting off the year with quite a bit of material. So, I wanted to organize them a little bit :D
The german titles are (in order):
Joe Abercrombie – Half the World
Mark Z. Danielewski – House of Leaves
Victor Hugo – The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
Christelle Dabos – A Winter's Promise
#studyblr#reading#books#booklr#reading list#university aesthetic#student aesthetic#aes#mine#this does not include any manga mostly bc i just reread the same three series#also I have already started reading most of these#which is probably why i don't track the books i read

eXCUSE YOU, why do I have to pay TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE U.S. DOLLARS to take a test that proves my ability to read, write and speak in the English language if I might even as much as CONSIDER applying to a university in the U.S.? Read my stupid little posts on all these stupid little websites like this one if you want to have your damn proof ffs
#yes i'm getting cocky#i'd argue that i have a better understanding of formal and informal use of language in english than many native speakers#shitpost#studyblr shitposting#text#mine#ronastudies#toefl test#toefl#language test#english test#studyblr#studyblr reality#why can't i just hand in a writing sample or something? or take a cheaper test? or hand in my school certificate or whatever?? ughhh#i've written & especially read so many academic papers in english ever since i started my very first undergrad class why doesn't that count

I would like to add something about routine. People ask how to discipline themselves so they can do 'The Thing' but the only answer they get is to do 'The Thing' and become disciplined by that. Which is not helpful at all. People don't understand one important thing about discipline.
Discipline is an emotion
and needs to be fueled. And what do you fuel it with? Resolve.
To become disciplined you need to cultivate resolve.
Here's the source :3

long term study tips
a lot of study tip posts that exist have a weird mix of short term and long term tips and that weirds me out, so here are some long term study tips (aka pavlov-ing yourself):
light the same scent of candle every day when you study- eventually the smell of the candle will put you in a study mood
drink the same kind of drink (I always drink green tea) and you will start to associate the process of getting the drink/the smell/the taste with studying
get into a habit of studying for a few minutes every night. Even if you are not doing much, it's something.
play the same playlist whenever you study- hearing "reflections" by Toshifumi Hinata instantly puts me into the study mood
Routines routines routines: the only reason I passed some of my classes last year was because I had routines in place for doing my work (they are falling apart this year, and I'm struggling.)

I've seen a lot of "gifted kid burnout" posts and also a few "where do we go to post studyblr stuff when we're bad students and don't get good grades" so I'm here to talk about my own experience of "I've never been a gifted kid and I've never been a good student".
I'm not a gifted kid. In fact, there was no "gifted kid" system in my country at all. And instead of multiple choice questions or true or false questions, we had to memorize pages and pages of our textbook and write them down during three hour exams. You can't get "a" and "the" wrong or you lose points, that's how much memorization we had to do. We didn't get electives until our last two years of high school and the electives were "biology or economics?" Yeah, those were the only two. Even at my university, I didn't get to choose my own electives. Everything came in a neat little box that you can never escape. And we never, EVER get full marks in Burmese or English. 80 out of 100 is considered phenomenal and no one's ever gotten more than 82 in either subject. So our matriculation exam's full mark is 600 but the most you can get is 550.
Suffice to say, the education system sucked and I don't like memorization so my grades were 50% at most. I failed my math and physic classes with 28 marks out of 100 for a whole two years, only barely passing on midterms and end of year exams. For my matriculation exam I got 340 out of 600, which is SUBPAR. That's 2.0 GPA btw. I never thought of myself as educated or a good student and I still don't.
But I love languages and I realize that while languages seem hard to learn and have strict rules, they actually don't. You can move them around and learn them however you like. So as an avid reader, I started learning languages so that I will be able to read books in those languages and I found studying liberating. Why not? I'm no longer memorizing 600 pages of text book and writing them down.
I realize that I love learning and studying when I get to choose what I learn. So I stopped caring about grades and started learning things that I love. Hey, do you know what's the biggest side effect of learning things that you love and not caring about grades? It's that you actually start to learn and your grades start to come up. I realize I perform badly when I am stressing out about my grades. This is why you're seeing all my 100% grade and 80% grade all over my walls. It's not because I'm a good student. It's because I've let go of the notion that I HAVE to be a good student.
I can talk about my bad grades as freely as I can talk about my good grades. I can tell you that I've been learning Japanese for ten seven years and I'm only JLPT N3 level. Honestly, you know what? As a generation, we're due to appreciate our process and progress instead of our achievements. It's fine if you're a bad student. It's fine if you are a gifted kid who fell off the wagon. It's fine if you've never been a gifted kid or a bad student. What matters is you're here studying and learning and appreciating yourself for doing all that.
So post your good grades, post your bad grades. Post your good stuff and bad stuff and messy notes. Post about your good days and your bad days. Talk about your productive days and talk about your rest days. Keep going and keep learning!

02.10.23, thursday
I feel like taking whole weekends off doesn’t work for me. Like if I take the days off, I’ll get stuck in that mood and I’m just now getting back to the groove of things, and it’s friday again tmrw. I think the ideal for me would be like 2 weeks on and then couple days off. Something I could actually do sometimes if I just schedule it. But couple last weekends I’ve had set plans so had to have actual weekends and my productivity has taken the hit
#basically I’m just so bad at starting things that I should never stop bc it takes too long to get back to it#i have things this weekend and probs next weekend as well but after that#(also side note; why do we have to stuff _everything_ to the end of the year?? like every celebration/event and then also the deadlines like#why don’t we have legit anything for january-april like those months suck)#aesthetic#books#studyblr#study#reading#read#bookblr#book#studyspo#dark academia#booklr#chaotic academia#november 2023#2023

i am not going to study.
i am in so much pain, literally crying and cannot take anything because i have to wait at least 8 hours from the last pain meds i took.
i desperately want to not hurt
OKAY

i got two (2) teeth removed on Tuesday.
felt like dying afterwars bc it hurted so fucking bad so i did nothing. same thing on Wednesday.
today, Thursday, i started to work at a matcha shop, which I'm really happy about, but I've not studied yet, so I'll probably do something after dinner.
wish me luck
