setting up your digital note system might take time, but it's so worth it! think of it like creating your perfect study sanctuary - every detail matters!

the next post will be getting into actually taking notes during class (and making them both pretty and effective!). for now, focus on setting up your perfect system.

pro tip: don't get too caught up in making everything perfect from the start. your system will evolve as you use it, just like how my notes looked completely different freshman year!

Achieving Visual Harmony: Aligning Text Boxes in Google Slides for Professional Results

Standee Design: Frequently Asked Inquiries Explained

1.How do I turn Google Slides into notes?   

To turn Google Slides into notes, open your presentation and go to the "File" menu. Select "Download," then choose "Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx)." Open the downloaded file in PowerPoint, where you can use the "Notes" feature to add your notes beneath each slide. Alternatively, you can print your slides with notes by selecting "File," then "Print," and adjusting the print settings to include the notes section. For a more straightforward method, you can also copy text from slides directly into a document for notetaking.

2. How do I publish Google Slides?

To publish Google Slides, open your presentation and click on "File" in the menu. Select "Publish to the web." Choose your preferred settings, such as auto-advance timing and whether to start the slideshow immediately. Click "Publish," then confirm your choice. You will receive a link and embedded code that you can share or use to embed the presentation on a website. Adjust sharing settings if needed to control who can view it.

3. How do I print comments in Google Slides?

To print comments in Google Slides, follow these steps: Open your presentation and go to the "File" menu. Select "Print settings and preview." In the preview window, click on the "Options" button and check the box for "Print comments." Adjust any other settings as needed, then click the "Print" button. This will print your slides along with the comments displayed on the side. Make sure to adjust your layout settings to ensure comments are visible as desired.

4. How do you order on Google Slides?

 To order objects in Google Slides, select the object you want to adjust. Right-click it, then choose "Order" from the context menu. You can select "Bring to front," "Bring forward," "Send backward," or "Send to back" to arrange the element's position relative to others. Alternatively, use the toolbar at the top: click "Arrange," then choose the desired ordering option. This allows you to layer images, text boxes, and shapes as needed for your presentation.

5. How do I line up text boxes in Google Slides?

To line up text boxes in Google Slides, select the text boxes you want to align by holding down the Shift key and clicking each one. Then, go to the "Arrange" menu, choose "Align," and select your desired alignment option (e.g., Align left, center, or right). You can also use the "Distribute" option for even spacing.

digital notes guide part 2/5: taking effective lecture notes (but make them cute!) 🎀

1st post

posted by: glowettee

hey study butterflies! ♡ mindyyyyy hereeeee

welcome back to our digital notes series! today i'm going more into the actual note-taking process during lectures/classes. this is important, since you can swap out notebooks for a digital notebook which becomes a lot more seamless.

♡ pre-lecture prep

because being prepared changes everything:

night before setup:

review previous notes (refresh your memory!)

pre-read lecture slides

create note template

set up quick-access tools

prepare questions

charge all devices

quick-access toolbar:

highlighting shortcuts

screenshot tool ready

recording software open

reference materials linked

custom stickers folder

favorite templates

♡ the actual note-taking method

this changed my whole study game:

(SUPER IMPORTANT) the butterfly method (my signature system):

main points in center

supporting details on left wing

examples on right wing

questions in antennae section

vocabulary in body section

connections in trail section

active engagement tricks:

use different colors for different types of information

create mini mind maps as you go

add little drawings for visual memory

insert voice memos for complex topics

flag confusing points with cute markers

leave space for post-lecture additions

♡ making it aesthetic but effective

because why not have both?:

visual organization:

use boxes for definitions

clouds for main concepts

stars for important points

hearts for memorable examples

arrows for connections

flowers for chapter markers

color coding system:

pink for main concepts

lavender for examples

mint for definitions

peach for formulas

baby blue for dates

gold for important warnings

♡ dealing with fast-paced lectures

because professors/teachers love to speed-talk:

shorthand system:

create cute abbreviations

use symbols for common words

develop personal code system

quick bullet points

voice record if allowed

flag for later review

quick capture methods:

screenshot important slides

quick sketch diagrams

voice memo key points

type keywords only

mark confusion points

flag for detailed review

♡ post-lecture enhancement

because the real magic happens after:

immediate review:

fill in gaps while fresh

add pretty headings

organize messy sections

insert relevant images

complete examples

link related concepts

enhancement techniques:

create summary boxes

add practice questions

insert related resources

make concept connections

highlight key points

add memory triggers

effective notes aren't just about capturing everything - they're about creating a resource you'll actually want to review! think of it like creating your own aesthetic textbook that speaks your language.

pro tip: don't try to make everything perfect during the lecture. focus on capturing information first, make it pretty later! i usually spend 15 minutes after each lecture prettifying my notes.

xoxo, mindy 🎀

Re-learning German in preparation for my german classes tomorrow. After a year of not practicing it, I have become extremely rusty. Time to do more practices again!

Tomorrow will be a busy day again. 0930 to 2030 with only 2 hours of break in between. Praying hard to be able to survive tomorrow! 🥲

I don’t know why but Fridays are always my least productive days. Everything goes so slow lmao. anyways, I decided to make a wallpaper for my iPad since I was still using the original Apple one (how did I not change it earlier), and I like how it turned out!
I’m also ordering the big pack of 25 (fake oops) mildliners. I just like the double tip and how they look. Plus I dont want to spend 50 euros on 25 markers.


Tonight, my boyfriend is coming over for dinner but tomorrow morning he already leaves because I need to study :( But I’m happy I get to see him!

Otherwise we won’t see each other for longer than a month! 
I’m happy that I won’t have to study physical chemistry tomorrow, I need a break from it. But then I ask myself: is advanced organic chemistry any easier lmao.


Have a great afternoon/evening everyone!
