golden hour studying :)

every minute spent on planning saves you ten minutes spent on execution. short essays probably don't require that much preparation beforehand, but if you're writing something longer you should probably spend some time planning first. this is the process i go through when planning my essays, and i find it works really well!

For my second day I mostly took it pretty easy, i still had a pretty bad headache so I decided to study on my bed. I learned another Italian lesson. I decultered my phone and organized my files on my iPad as well. Practiced my driving, since my drive test is coming pretty soon. I got a 6 month extension on my repayment for my student loan, so that ease so much stress off my shoulder when I received the approval. Towards the end of the night I was feeling pretty low, and I got a random zoom call from an old friend of mine. it felt really therapeutic to talk out my frustrations with her since I usually just bottle it up in my head. Remembering that self care is still a form of productivity. the was the night ended felt really serendipitous and it brought up my mood after we ended the call.

어제 공부 계획을 세웠는데 오늘 친구들하고 얘기 많이 해서 할일을 다 끝내지 못했다. 그래서 내일은 열심히 공부해야 할 거다. 그 공부하는 것이 왜 이렇게 힘들지?

I find these carrels with views over Bloomsbury completely irresistible. I had a really productive morning here looking through philosophy periodicals (and daydreaming about living in those terraces)

Pictures found scrolling down Pinterest.

When even coffee can’t inspire me to study and continue, I can always scroll down my tumblr and Pinterest feed and become motivated by the hard working and brilliant individuals that form a part of this studyblr community.

types of study breaks for every situation

if you realize you’ve been studying for hours: grab a snack to refuel your body and watch a sitcom to refuel your brain. then back to the books.

if you’re feeling stressed out: take some deep breaths, text your friends, maybe stare at a wall for a few minutes. gather yourself.

if you can’t seem to focus: get moving and get outside. take out the garbage, check your mail box, maybe walk your dog. just get moving and get fresh air. it’ll help bring you back.

if there’s something else going on in your life and you can’t get it off your mind: write down what’s going through your head, sort of like a diary entry. it’ll help you work things out.

if you’re just mentally and physically exhausted: set a timer for 25-30 minutes and take a nap. any longer and you’ll hit REM and you’ll wake up feeling just as tired. once you wake up, get some caffeine in you.

if the material is boring as hell: find another way to study. see if there’s a crash course video online about it or draw out what you’re trying to learn in diagrams and pictures to make it fun.

if people around you won’t shut up: listen to some music. soundtrack and classical music is always good because they won’t absorb you as much as music with lyrics. white noise (like ocean waves, rain sounds, etc.) also works.

if you only half understand a concept: call/message a friend who’s not in the class and try to teach the material to them. this will help you mentally work through the material and will help you remember it as well.
