the first time we lose our innocence is when we are told that dandelions are not flowers, but weeds, and that they are not to be loved, but destroyed.

Inspirational Quotes

Everyone needs extra inspiration/motivation every once in a while. Therefore, I have compiled a list of some of my favourite inspirational Harry Potter quotes (quotes are from the books and films).

“Working hard is important. But there is something that matters even more, believing in yourself”

“Books! And cleverness! There are more important things! - Friendship! And Bravery!”

“When in doubt, go to the library”

“It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities”

“It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live”

“It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends”

“Ah, music,” he said wiping his eyes. “A magic beyond all we do here”

“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on Earth should that mean that it is not real?”

“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic”

“Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the the light”

“In dreams, we enter a world that’s entirely our own”

“It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be”

“We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are”

“Well, [bad] times like that bring out the best in some people and the worst in others’

“The ones who love us never really leave us, you can always find them in here”

“What’s life without a little risk?”

“We’re all human, aren’t we? Every human life is worth the same, and worth saving”

“You sort of start thinking anything’s possible if you’ve got enough nerve”

“Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect”

“No good sitting worrying about it. What’s coming will come, and we’ll meet it when it does”

I hope these quotes inspire you too!

Introverts are collectors of thoughts, and solitude is where the collection is curated and rearranged to make sense of the present and future.

She sits at the back of the classroom, A thick book in her hand with an old receipt she uses as a bookmark, Nose buried between the pages, She ignores everything that is happening around her, For she has her own little world.

A lil note for “EXO-Ls”

I am an EXO-L and I love both current members and ex-members.

I am an EXO-L and I don’t pretend the ex-members never existed.

I am an EXO-L and I respect the ex-members’ choices to leave.

I am an EXO-L and I don’t spam ex-members’ Instagram and Weibo accounts with “Miss you oppa, please come back to EXO!”.

I am an EXO-L and I know that without the ex-members, EXO would not be who and what they are today.

I am an EXO-L and I respect and support ex-members’ work.

I am an EXO-L and I support every member’s activities outside of EXO.

I am an EXO-L and I admire the talents of each and every member.

I am an EXO-L and I never bash another member for seeming more popular than my bias or any other member.

I am an EXO-L and I don’t act aggressively towards other fandoms.

I am an EXO-L and I don’t tolerate the fake fans.

I am an EXO-L and I will truly love, respect and support EXO forever. 

         EXO 사랑해!

The 'No Excuses' Study System to Get That A

I  School Days 

1. Show up to class a little early. It’ll give you time to set up, read over some old notes, put your water bottle/thermos on your desk, fill out your planner if you couldn’t in the previous period(s), check your planner to see if you have something on that day etc.

2. Sit in the front or second row. I’m serious, you will definitely benefit. Write detailed class notes. Pick whatever system works for you. I usually write my titles in red pen, notes in black pen, underline points that are repeated/emphasised, highlight keywords at home

3. If you have time at school, do as much homework as you can. If you know you have commitments that day, please for the love of your education do your homework at lunch. I know you might feel awkward, but your friends will understand. 

4. When you get home, first list down all the homework received that day on a q card (cross off as you go). Then write the same tasks in your bullet journal, but as a daily spread. Use stayfocusd or self control for mac + leave phone in a different room. FINISH ALL OF YOUR HOMEWORK. If for some reason you couldn’t complete a homework task, write it on a sticky note and place it on your wall. After homework is done, write your revision notes (flashcard the info as well). Place the notes in your accordion folder/binder. If you have some loose sheets at any point, place them in a ‘To Be Filed’ box. Sort that out when you’re packing your bag for the next day.

5. Go through the flashcards made that day and the flashcards made on the previous days.  List out all assignments/assessments on another q card with their due dates. This will come in handy later.

6. Pack your bag the night before. Remember your accordion folder + make sure your ‘To Be Filed’ box is empty. Put water bottle in the fridge and make meals for the next day.

7. The next day, wake up early, complete any unfinished homework, go through flashcards again, read through revision notes, make lunch for the day, put laptop in bag, put food + water in bag, exercise (esp if you have commitments after school), shower, change, blah blah blah. Only do this if your schedule is packed, and in my case, this is a must.

II  Weekends

1. On Friday nights, first off, do homework. You will thank yourself for it. Whip out that list of assessments/assignments and allocate half days to knock off at least two of these little assholes. Work ahead, you will feel much better.

2. Do your readings. For English, knock off some wider reading novels, for HSIE, knock off some textbook unit readings (two units ahead), for science, knock off some more textbook readings. Write summaries of each page. Type these summaries. Print these summaries. Place in accordion folder/binder. Flashcard the info. Spend like half a day doing this lmao.

3. Spend 1-2 hours going through the flashcards you made that week for each subject. This counts as studying my friend. 

III Weekends When You Actually Have Assessments 

1. Due to your working ahead, homework completion and readings, you shouldn’t be panicking too much. Get those revision notes and slot in the textbook readings notes. Highlight, annotate, read aloud, go through flashcards and get someone to test you on the content. Make sure you know all terms, formulae, key concepts, vocabulary etc etc

2. As for assignments, again due to your working ahead just print them out and heavily edit those little asshats. Then type the edits into the doc. Repeat this process four times. Then get someone to read it. Make sure all your assignments are on your USB + email them to yourself because you never fucking know tbh. 

3. You’ll probs have to sacrifice your reading time but that’s chill because the teacher/prof will probably be focusing on prepping you for the actual assessment + you gotta do what you gotta do.

SUMMARY

Seriously, just do your homework the day you receive it, write revision notes, do your readings, write notes on those readings, make flashcards, knock out assignments as soon as you know they actually exist, read every wider reading novel (analyse these novels), read your required readings (analyse this too), go over flashcards every morning/afternoon, make use of spare time in class, do homework at lunch if needed, stick to your schedule, buy coffee/hot chocolate in the mornings and put it in a thermos, keep a necessities pouch in your bag, keep your P.E shoes in your locker, use a planner, track your spending, wash your hair, brush your hair, go to commitments, attend school events, attend events you’re invited to, go shopping, watch movies, be kind to yourself, take bubble baths, light candles, listen to music, SLEEP, get that A and most importantly be proud of yourself.

If anything, admitting when you don’t fully understand something displays curiosity for learning. So keep asking those questions!
