FREE WEEKLY PRINTABLE!

Hi friends! I made a free vertical weekly printable (Monday/Sunday start) that includes a daily goal and a self care section.

By including these two sections, I think it will help set the focus for the day and help you remember to take care of yourself!

I made the planner super simple and minimalist so you can customize however you would like. This is an example of how I made my layout for the week in GoodNotes 5.

You can print the letter size file or import into GoodNotes, Notability, or any note taking app you are using.

PDFs can be accessed here:

Happy planning and have a wonderful week!

Hey did you know I keep a google drive folder with linguistics and language books  that I try to update regularly

Hey just because I’ve never seen this on here before, if you’re not the procrastinator ADHD type, but you do run into “against my own wishes, my brain has decided I absolutely CANNOT do this task right now” part of ADHD, advice: don’t fight it. You’re going to fight your own brain? You will lose, and nothing will get done. Instead, try finding a similar task that your brain will accept, and start working on that to get back in the rhythm of working and doing things. Sometimes I cannot write the paper that is due this coming Friday, but I can write the paper that is due two months from now. By the time I finish that essay, my brain has eased back into a rhythm of academic writing, and now it will accept the other assignment. Assuming you haven’t left the first essay right up to the deadline, this can be super beneficial. I’m very well know in my town for being a highly efficient worker and always being ahead, but what people don’t realize is that doing that means I frequently give up on order of priority to an extent because doing things in the order of their deadlines isn’t always comfortable for my brain.

I'm a TA this semester despite not ever going to office hours so... what sorts of things are useful for office hours or for review sessions at the end of the week?

[themigratingdesk]

shoutout to the students that don’t have a good study environment. who have to share a room with family members. who don’t have a desk or permanent place to study. who have to study with noise, distraction or yelling around them. Who live in tiny apartments with noisy neighbours. who have to hurry home because before dark because they don’t live in a safe neighbourhood. who are surrounded by crime and gangs and are just doing their best to survive. who get woken up by police sirens on a regular basis. who only have third-hand twice repaired technology to study with and no backup plan for when their laptop inevitably breaks. who are dealing with language barriers, being the family translator, prejudice and trauma from having to flee their homes or country due to violence. who are worry about getting evicted from their homes in the middle of exam season. who are subject to the whims of bosses who can’t cut their hours and wreck havoc on their lives.

I can’t really offer you much help or pretend that I understand what you’re going through but I hope that you know that you have the support of this community and are free to express these challenges and worries without judgement and that you belong in this community.

Actual good first-time college student advice:

Wear jeans/pants that “breathe” and bring a sweater, even if it’s scorching hot out, until you know which building blasts the AC to 60 degrees F and which feels like a sauna

Backpacks with thick straps are your friend!  Messenger bags are cool and all but if you’re commuting with a lot of stuff, symmetrically styled backpacks are better for your back

You are your own person and you can walk out whenever you need to or want to, so long as you’re not disrupting the class.  Meaning you can go to the bathroom without permission, take a breather if you’re anxious, answer an important phone call, etc.

If you don’t like the class on the first day, if you can- DROP THAT CLASS AND TAKE ANOTHER ONE!  It’ll only get worse from there!

If you can, take a class outside your major; it’s a good break from your expected studies.

You are in charge of your schedule.  Your adviser and guidance counselor is there to ‘advise and guide’ but if you don’t like certain classes and you can substitute for others, that’s your choice.

Consequently, if you are changing anything drastic in your plan, talk with your adviser and instructors.

Pay attention to your credit hours and grades.  Never leave this to the last week of school, you will be sorry and stressed beyond belief!

Unless it’s a lab book or otherwise specified, go to the class for a week or so before buying an expensive textbook.  Some classes, while having it on their required list, do not actually use the textbook a whole lot and you might find some of it scanned online.  Rent if you can or buy used online (schools actually don’t give discounts).  Use your best judgement on what you think you need.

Tell the people who go up to you selling or advertising things you are not interested in that you are in a rush to class and don’t have time to listen to them.  It’s less rude and they’ll leave you alone.

The smaller the class, the better it is to have some sort of acquaintanceship with a couple classmates.  They might save your ass if you are absent one day or need to study.  And talking with them makes the time go by faster without it being so insufferable.

You don’t need to join a club or sport, but internships are cool and useful!

If you can afford it, take a day off once or twice each semester if you’re too exhausted.  Just be aware of what you missed and if it was worth missing!

Your health is the most important, this goes for mental health too!!  Note: College-age/upper teens is when mental disorders like depression and anxiety are most commonly diagnosed.  Most schools have therapy services, especially during exam time.  Look into it if you need to!

Communicate with your professor if you are having trouble with something.  Anything.

Eat and stay hydrated.  Bring a water bottle and snack to class.

All-nighters will happen but never go over 36 hours without sleep.

It’s going to be hard and there will be times you might think about giving up.  This WILL happen.  You just have to make sure what you’re doing isn’t making you absolutely miserable and/or there is something rewarding and positive to look forward to at the end!

November 2020 Wallpapers

Hey everyone! Hope you’re as great as you can be. A whole lot of crazy stuff has happened recently or is happening and I do hope you’re managing everything alright.

I just wanted to share some wallpapers I’ve made for you this month! I thought it’d be good to have something that’ll make you feel calm but also energized and motivated: the illustration* represents the journey you’re on, and everything’s still - the waters, the winds, etc. - as a reminder that it will all work out in the end. I’ve also included a quote by Marie Curie that I’ve found empowering whenever I face any challenges in my life.

Download the wallpapers here!

Calendars are available in Mon and Sun start. Desktop, phone, and print versions also available.

Hope you enjoy them, and have a great November :)

‘eat the frog' method

Hi all, it’s werelivingarts. I just stumbled across this method called ‘eat the frog’, which means you get the most difficult or important task out of your way first. I actually have been using this method for a long time, hope this post gives you a new way of managing your time and productivity! 😜 ❤️

“If it’s your job to eat a frog, it’s best to do it first thing in the morning. And if it’s your job to eat two frogs, it’s best to eat the biggest one first.” – Mark Twain
