really happy with the work i got done today. i feel leagues more prepared for my exam that'll (ideally) be tomorrow, since i got a recommendation for a study resource that helped so much more than anything i'd found before. i'm starting to feel more hopeful about physics.

in other news, i'm planning to stop by office hours on friday morning to get some coding help. my grade in CS is starting to drop but i'm honestly not super concerned as long as i can pass the course... we'll see how things go.

i need to get caught up on lecture notes.

accountability post so that i don't drown in my misery. today i have to do my physics exam practice assignment and i have a meeting at two. if i have more time + energy i'll get to work on late assignments.

courses im passing: 3/5 (still a majority, for now.)

you ask a student in april how they're doing and they'll say "oh i'm fine" but in reality they are treating themselves in such a way that violates the geneva convention on treatment of prisoners

ive got two exams tomorrow... i feel relatively confident and even get a cheat sheet on one of them but still. im gonna chug a redbull in... what, 10 hours? sounds about right.

it's been nonstop exams for a few weeks now. i'm looking forward to things chilling out. still don't have a job.

being a humanities major who’s friends with stem majors is so funny because you’ll ask your friends what they’re doing today and they’re like “UGH it’s so stressful i have to stabilize the reactor core for my nuclear power midterm and then i have to build the supercomputer from i have no mouth yet i must scream for my electrical engineering homework :/ what about you” and you’re like “oh well i have to read a fun little book and write an essay about gender.” and they still think you have it worse

Last week of classes, exams on the horizon. At the moment I‘m completely overwhelmed with studying and I have papers to write as well (haven’t even started). Don’t really know how to deal with this stress so I just get nothing done… ☕️

I have been wanting to do this poll for a while. I am a pen and paper stan all the way, I could never study on digital notes, and yet so many people in uni walk around with just their laptop. I added a third option because I once met a guy who just sat in lectures and listened and that was enough for him, so if I met someone like that irl it means there's definitely more weird people (affectionate) online.

In the tags tell me what you voted for, what level of education you are currently in, and what is your main subject of study (idk if asking to add age and place would add more insteresting infos so do what you want I'll honestly read everything)
