i feel like there’s this huge unfulfilled niche in the Dark Academia thing (kill your darlings, the secret history, dead poets society etc) for stories about women???? like can we have rakish girls quoting sappho and anxious genius poet girls, bespectacled, frantically tapping away at typewriters? wild girls trying to start literary movements and being dragged down by their own hubris? innocent girls discovering love and sex and angela carter? cute girls in 60s looking school uniforms investigating ~mysterious happenings~? going to class the next day hungover and exchanging knowing glances? can we just have. the thing

(for @cadernodaju) coucou tout le monde!  Basically this is an outline of what basic grammar/vocabulary you should know at each CEFR level, but as a disclaimer I would like to note that I am not fluent in the French language. Everything from C1-C2 is what I’ve heard speakers say they study at that level, it is not from experience since I am only at around a B2 myself. Also, this is but a brief outline for REVIEW, if you are studying any of these French levels for the first time I reccommend you visit my more in depth french posts here (x) (x) or my posts/french tag

You’ve always wanted to join the studyblr community, but you’re still a bit unsure? 

You already made a blog but would like a little bit more guidance? 

You love the studyblr community and would like to give something back to newcomers? 

You want to make new friends and help others along the way?

Then I’m very happy to introduce the Studyblr Summer Mentorship Program. We connect experienced studyblrs with those only starting out, or who are just curious still. This way you can be part of a vast network with a variety of studyblrs - different backgrounds, different stories, different experiences. Too often newbies are discouraged because they can’t seem to truly connect with the community in the beginning, or have a lot of unanswered questions. Others don’t even create a blog because everything seems so intimidating - why is everything so aesthetically pleasing?? 

Mentors: - you mentor one or several baby studyblrs - you give back to the community, make it a better place and help others - you connect with other studyblr, new and more experienced - apply here!

Mentees: - you get guidance and support from an experienced member - how do I find a theme? what are some studyblr essentials? how do I make friends? how do I actually use studyblr productively and not fall into the trap of procrastination by looking at pretty notes?? (still haven’t figured that one out myself) how do I gain followers? etc. - you get access to a network of studyblrs - you’re introduced to the community and all its wonderful perks - apply here!

Mentors and Mentees: - gain friends!! - take part in challenges/group chats/ask games/anything fun (optional) - meet others in the community 

Applications are open until the 15th of July. I’m very much looking forward to this, hopefully it’ll take off :D Rachel

i’ll be honest: texting in french is somewhat of a nightmare. things are often written phonetically and literally nothing will look like the french in your textbook. however, just like actual french; it may be nonsense, but it’s nonsense with rules.

in general: - no apostrophes - no accents - je/tu + être and je/tu + avoir become one word je suis → jsuis tu as → tas - je + any verb can become one word je dois → jdois - objects become one word je l’ai → jlai - basically anything that can be combined is combined

ajd - aujourd’hui bcp - beaucoup c - c’est dac - daccord dmn - demain eske - est-ce que g - j’ai gt - j’étais je ss - je suis jcp - je ne comprends pas jpp - j’en peux plus jsp - je ne sais pas jtm - je t’aime koa - quoi koi - quoi mdr - mort de rire mm - m��me oklm - au calme pq - pourquoi pr - pour prcq - parce que psk - parce que ptn - putain ui - oui wi - oui we - ouais ue - ouais qqch - quelque chose qqn - quelqu’un qlqn - quelqu’un qlq - quelqu’un sa - ça slt - salut ski - ce qui squi - ce qui stp - s’il te plaît svp - s’il vous plaît tfk - tu fais quoi tg - ta gueule tjr - toujours tqt - t'inquiète tt - tout wsh - wesh ya - il y a

hope this helps! and although i did make this list based off of things my friends have said, not everyone texts like this - don’t be too afraid!

Hey guys. I’m glad to be finally posting my “mental breakdown survival guide”. As you know I struggle a lot with mental health, and so I have been through a lot of breakdowns. So many that I actually dropped out of university after 3 weeks in 2016 and had to take the whole year off. Because of this, I’ve made it my mission to help others with mental health issues as much as I can, so you don’t have to go through what I’ve been through.

Anyway, here is my guide. I tried to keep it general, and actually useful. If you have any questions or additions please feel free to add them.

And as ever, if you want to talk to me about studying with mental illness or want to see a post on a specific topic, please feel free to message me.

Hi! Do you have any SAT tips? I'm taking it this year and I'm so stressed out. It feels like it's going to decide my whole future.

Hi! I haven’t got any tips personally since I haven’t done them myself. Although exams are scary and daunting, you need to remember to put it into perspective. Your results, good or bad, isn’t going to decide your entire future. It might assist and make getting there easier but it isn’t the end if things don’t get as well as you hope. There are always way to get where you want, you just have to take a detour! Here are some resources to read:

no-study SAT tips

the new SAT

how to study for the SAT effectively

how to achieve the SAT score you want

free SAT and ACT prep materials

SAT and ACT resources

things the SAT prep books won’t tell you

Hope this helps x
