11) Do you have a comfort item? // 14). Something upcoming you're excited about

11) I've been cozied up with a blanket anytime the house gets too cold (like 80% of the time) so I guess that? Bf bought it for me a while ago and it's light enough to carry around the house. 14) I turn 30 in a few weeks but we're not really planning anything afaik jsut another birthday to be disappointed by tbh, uhhhhhhh going to a convention soon-ish, still trying to debate whether or not to cosplay.

7. What was some of the best advice you’ve ever been given? - Impostor syndrome is really silly to have when you know how much smarter you are over multi billionaires out there being dipshits. 12. Do you have any little party tricks that most people don’t know about? - afaik no I don't lol 26. Has anyone ever given you a compliment that was so meaningful to you and you will never forget? What was it? - The second time I visited my bf in NY I was wearing a dress I bought from the local thrift store there and a girl just nonchalantly said how much she loved how I looked in that dress as we walked past each other and I'm just like 'oh people here are nice'. 28. Post a selfie of yourself that you think is hot fire and needs to be appreciated (because you are so damn good looking) - Take my selfie from my birthday cause I don't really do those anymore. Jaw surgery and gaining weight and such made me not recognize myself recently so its hard to lol 37. What have you done that felt very fulfilling at the end? I mean the obvious answer is finally moving out of my parents' house. Small stuff? Ehhh. Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. My marigolds seems to be surviving/sprouting?

8 Answered! What are you proudest of? I still got a few weeks to go for this but almost making it to 30, considering I've been convinced I should've died at 17. Pretty neat. Are you a kind person? I want to believe that I am, though my perception of myself is 99% negative so I cannot say for myself. So I guess my best answer is "I try to be".

Soft asks: 1, 6, 8, 21, 22

What song makes you feel better? Lately it's been All the Time in the World [x] just cause it's something to vibe out to. What’s your favorite candle scent? Candles specifically I'm not sure, usually it's something citrus-y or beach-y. Default scents is linen/clean smells. Whats a fabric/texture that’s nostalgic for you? Grass, for obvious reasons. My house back in CO hasn't been able to grow grass and I hardly venture outside so it made me really like/miss the feel of fresh grass a lot more. Fabric probably silk, tho idm that being rare cause I know how it's made lol. Tea, Coffee, or hot cocoa? It's a coin flip between tea and hot chocolate, hot chocolate whenever its cold, tea any other time. Name of your favorite playlist? I mean I just use mine which I just call 'An Ivy Playlist' I've had since spotify's creation but my bf sometimes pulls up the 'A Playlist for Divorced Dads' which had the songs you *know* is on there and I think it's just funny.

If your blog was a store, what would it sell?

oooo, that's a good question! It would probably be an ice cream parlor. Plenty of good flavors, and just as many bad lol. The employees are burnt out, but still love their job to much to quit.

and if I were to actualy sell stuff, it would be keychains!

You're really cool

omg, thank you! your my first ask, I really appreciate it <3

how do you take notes? like flashcards for example. I definitely need help with this kind of stuff! btw, my studyblr url is cucumber-studies

Hi! I make flashcards differently depending on how much time I have to memorize them and the type of information I’m memorizing. Sometimes my cards are just terms/definitions, if they’re for vocabulary or math formulas, but sometimes I make summary cards for classes like biology or history. (You can find some lovely examples of summary cards here, here, and here!) They have more information and, like my Latin flashcards, are studied more like traditional notes than like typical flashcards, which are usually ‘drilled’ really quickly over and over again. 

My general notes for class are mostly outlines and flashcards! Sometimes I make summary pages to condense information or I take more visual notes on my iPad to help reinforce certain concepts - usually in science and math. I’m always trying to adjust my system to make it work better for me!

(Later this week I’ll be making a note-taking masterpost as well as one about making flashcards, so watch for that!)

[study-brilliantly-blog]

A masterpost on free books? A masterpost on french music? (｡･ω･｡)♡

ooooh I love both of those!! thanks for the ideas :)

What is your method of highlighting? Like, what do the different colors mean?

Hi! Depends on what I’m highlighting, actually… for flashcards, for example, I don’t usually have a ‘key’ - the colors are there to help me pick out important information, since I tend to lose focus when reading large blocks of text. (Also, I like to use color as a way to motivate myself to look at my notes!! Sounds silly, but it works for me :) )
