Studyzzz

I get a lot of asks about highlighters and smudging, so I thought I would just talk abt it here! I almost always do my notes with muji’s 0.38mm black gel pen on loose leaf and then I wait for it to dry (~30min) and highlight with mildliners or stabilo highlighters, and there’s no smudge 😀 (Alternatively, pigma microns r rlly good for no smudge if you don’t want to wait)

20th april 2016 : [68/100 days of productivity]

taken from my ig: @study.relief // ugh i really don’t want to sit my first exam, on monday, sick 😷 however i’m doing my best to get better whilst revising ft. my quick biology recap notes. i’m kinda loving this paper too since it’s huger than A4 and it’s more like a poster however on a google search, it looks like the pad is discontinued !

+ black pen / amber brush pen / textbook ✨✨

especially for those of us in school with a lot of stress, it's important for us to take care of ourselves :)

self-care isn’t always about letting yourself indulge in an activity or do whatever you want. sometimes it means that you have to recognize your destructive habits and actively work to fix them, no matter how hard it is. people seem to consider self-care doing things you want to do, and while that’s a part of it, it’s really just as much about doing things that are healthy for you.

At age 23, Tina Fey was working at a YMCA. At age 23, Oprah was fired from her first reporting job.  At age 24, Stephen King was working as a janitor and living in a trailer. 

At age 27, Vincent Van Gogh failed as a missionary and decided to go to art school.   At age 28, J.K. Rowling was a suicidal single parent living on welfare.

At age 28, Wayne Coyne ( from The Flaming Lips) was a fry cook. At age 30, Harrison Ford was a carpenter.  At age 30, Martha Stewart was a stockbroker.  At age 37, Ang Lee was a stay-at-home-dad working odd jobs. Julia Child released her first cookbook at age 39, and got her own cooking show at age 51. Vera Wang failed to make the Olympic figure skating team, didn’t get the Editor-in-Chief position at Vogue, and designed her first dress at age 40. Stan Lee didn’t release his first big comic book until he was 40. Alan Rickman gave up his graphic design career and landed his first movie role at age 42. Samuel L. Jackson didn’t get his first major movie role until he was 46.

Morgan Freeman landed his first major movie role at age 52. Kathryn Bigelow won the Academy Award for Best Director when she made The Hurt Locker at age 57. Grandma Moses didn’t begin her painting career until age 76. Louise Bourgeois didn’t become a famous artist until she was 78. Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it. You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and fortune by the age of 21. Hell, it’s okay if you don’t even know what your dream is yet. Even if you’re flipping burgers, waiting tables or answering phones today, you never know where you’ll end up tomorrow. Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it. 

Never tell yourself you missed your chance. 

Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough. 

You can do it. Whatever it is.

back at it again with the messy desks. I didn‘t get as much done as I wanted to, but I‘m still kinda proud because at least I managed to do something

Started the day with a cup of hot cocoa with whipped cream and staring longily at one of my bookshelves. Here goes studying for finals!

Remember if you are in school, you can do it! I believe in you!
