hey friends long time no post..!!! here are some of my favourite double page spreads in my 2017 bujo so far ;u;

[wynnstudies-blog]

I was getting pretty fed up with links and generators with very general and overused weapons and superpowers and what have you for characters so:

Here is a page for premodern weapons, broken down into a ton of subcategories, with the weapon’s region of origin. 

Here is a page of medieval weapons.

Here is a page of just about every conceived superpower.

Here is a page for legendary creatures and their regions of origin.

Here are some gemstones.

Here is a bunch of Greek legends, including monsters, gods, nymphs, heroes, and so on. 

Here is a website with a ton of (legally attained, don’t worry) information about the black market.

Here is a website with information about forensic science and cases of death. Discretion advised. 

Here is every religion in the world. 

Here is every language in the world.

Here are methods of torture. Discretion advised.

Here are descriptions of the various methods used for the death penalty. Discretion advised.

Here are poisonous plants.

Here are plants in general.

Feel free to add more to this!

22 sep. 2017; 37/100 days of productivity

I was tutoring with a bunch of seniors today and they were all discussing their college essays; it makes me nervous even though I know everything will be alright.

Hi! It’s been a while since I wrote my last advice post, and I apologize for that. School has hit me hard like a train but somehow I’m still managing to survive haha~ TuT

Setting that aside, school has finally started for many of us, and we’ve probably taken a quiz or a graded assignment. Being perfectly imperfect individuals, we run into mistakes often. Though this is not a guide that will give you tips on molding into someone that doesn’t commit errors, it may help you avoid these kinds of mistakes related to your schoolwork.

✽ Understand your mistakes: Super crucial! Understanding is the first step to solving. You need to know WHAT, WHERE, WHY, and HOW you got something wrong. Make sure you answer most, if not all of these questions. Go into depth as much as you can until you know exactly what’s wrong.

✽ Write down your mistakes: This is a point that I recommend taking home~ Whenever the teacher returns my test, I grab a sticky note and jot down all of my incorrect answers. That way, they are ingrained into my memory, so that I can remember not to make the same mistake again. It’s also nice to write down the answers from the previous point (what/where/why/how) too!

✽ Correct your mistakes: This is also another thing I would want to write down. I’d say that one letter, number, or word to your correction is not enough. You need to explain it to yourself on why you were wrong (and this time it’s about the content). You may want to ask a classmate or the teacher for this. (I highly recommend the teacher though~)

✽ Practice, practice~: This is the actual muddy work, I’d say. Though practice does not make you perfect, there’s always room for improvement. Practice the concepts that you’re having difficulties with, going over the key steps or details thoroughly. Make sure that you’re understanding everything, not just part of it. Review the content in various forms, such as flashcards, new worksheets, etc. to master the subject–that’s your goal right there!

✽ Don’t hesitate to ask for help: Whether it be fellow classmates, teachers, or your parents, ask help from someone that knows about the content best. If you are still unsure about a topic, do not rely on yourself to answer all your questions. Please lay out all your questions in front of someone you know that can surely answer them. Remember to take note of what they say as well!

✽ Actually put in the right amount of effort: To actually let the whole circuit work, you need to put in effort to study for a good amount of time in order to see changing results. Never stop working diligently, trying your best, and performing to your maximum potential! You can do this!! ♡

In addition to this, I am planning to make a branch of this post specifically for test-taking tips and strategies. Please look forward to that~ I hope you found these advices helpful. Have a nice day/night! ♡

An organized desk can definitely freshen your workplace and give you a new perspective on things. Being an artist, maintaining a clean and tidy space is a challenge. However, it is important to remember to clean up your table to keep the creative juices flowing. It may not help much at first, but trust me, it’s better to look at a tidy space than a messy one. Plus, you have another thing to be proud of: YOU CLEANED IT!

WHAP notes 3/?

I go back to school tomorrow and I’m not sure if I’m 100% ready. I ordered a lot of supplies online and they haven’t arrived yet, but I’m also a high school sophomore so not a lot should happen during the first week?

A spread inspired by the Love Yourself highlight reels! my original idea was to copy the entry made by the girl with the red journal, but I ended up taking the structure and being creative with colors and content. I’m really impressed with the album and I can’t wait to see more of the choreography!
