ImTotallyFinehahahahhaahelp

I tried a new format of picture today. Liked doing this annotation thingy with my personal humor.

I have an entrance exam tomorrow for my dream college and i haven't been able to study the past week since my gran passed away last week and the whole family all my little cousins have been here. Lets hope she has some pull upstairs and helps me pass tomorrow.

I also hit 1k last week so YAYY!!! Do y'all want me to do anything for the milestone? Lemme know :)))

Hey you!

Before you scroll down any further, take just five (5) mins to get a little ahead on the work you've been ignoring all day. Then you can come back! Get going, shoo.

7.04.2018. Wednesday.

Happy fourth of July! I’m currently jamming out to Kings of Convenience and creating flashcards for my evolution class that will begin in the fall. I am so excited to have this head start in this class, and hopefully my three others as well. My flashcards are based off of quizlet flashcards that other students of my future professor have created. Isn’t that an incredible resource?! I’m going to see a firework show tonight with my roommate and her boyfriend, and tomorrow I nanny earlier in the morning. Little things, good things.

Love others, love yourself, and be kind.

~Art and Music~

Getting back to my hobbies after almost a year.

Now that school's over and i have all the time in tge world except the time i still have to study for entrance exams i got back to some of my hobbies - painting, keyboard, journaling. I might just cover Mystery of Love on keyboard pretty soon.

~~~

oop! i just found out about @myhoneststudyblr ‘s Quarantine Challenge and it sounds so amazing? 

here are the one’s i’ve missed so far:

Mon - Have you made a study schedule to help you study at home?

not yet... i have been very unproductive lately and haven’t got much studying done. but i’m gonna make a real planner soon. today maybe

Tue - How are you being taught your lessons? (google classroom, teams etc.)

my school is over and i haven't gotten int a college yet, i have to give entrance exams right now (which too are postponed for now) so i just had 2 personal tutors who’d come to my place to get me prepared for the exams. but now they both just take class over a normal video call.

Wed - What’s your favourite study snack?

coffee. definitely coffee. strong and black. no sugar. i occasionally get chocolates or chips or something too.

Thu - How are you keeping active?

i have a marble table on my roof so me and my dad go up to play table tennis every night. its fun.

Fri - What is your favourite subject/topic to study at the moment?

maths, i like to solve maths equations. my other 2 subjects - physics and chemistry - stress me out, but i like doing maths. otherwise i also enjoy reading a lot so literature i guess?

Ever had that weird feeling when you’re sitting (or peeing) and suddenly it’s like you’re losing everything? (I mean, ok, you’re losing your pee, lol). Everything just becomes too much, and you either prepare to cry, (bonus points if you curl up in a fetal position, ‘cause on the toilet seat that's practically gymnastics) or grab a bag of popcorn, your midnight bathroom snack, not caring that you’re going bonkers (I respect that, you da hood). Except for the buttered popcorn, nothing about it is fun, yet it’s happened to every single one of us.

To cut short this intro, here’s how NOT to lose your shit. It’s time to take complete ownership of your life (someone cue the dramatic music, I don’t have a stereo. #BROKE-AF).

Someone amazing once said “your brain is your most valuable tool.” That's true. Once you learn how to control your mind, you will start to see that we, being the dumb idiots that we are, over-complicate the simplest of things. You’re not losing your shit (but finish that popcorn anyway). Your mind just convinced you that you are. My wise friend once said that it’s either you directing your mind or it’s the other way around. Show your mind who’s boss and conquer it. Here’s how:

Don’t make excuses. Not only does it piss off Miss Honey and your dog (your dog has better things to eat, my dude), but it robs you of the opportunity to learn from your mistakes. As I always say, life is not a report card. It's never perfect, and it’s the little flaws that push you to aim higher. In the end, life is just growth as a human being (or as a basic hoe, like me). Here’s an example of taking full responsibility for your actions:

 Action: You didn’t submit your essay on time.

 Normal response:  “I didn’t know about the essay.”

                               “My dog ate up my entire computer.”

                               “I was saving the world from zombies.”

Conqueror talk: “I didn’t get in my essay, for that no excuse is valid. I have learned from this and you can expect better next time.”

Miss Honey will be pleased.

I’m a firm believer that emotions hinder productivity. Now, don’t get me wrong, emotions are great. There are many things to shed tears on. Tris from Divergent died. Trump became President. You just got friend-zoned. It’s great to have emotions in cases like these. But when it comes down to getting work done, it’s better to have a firm control over them.

Imagine trying to finish that crappy essay 3 mins before your deadline when Sophia from book club comes up all like “Did you hear what Archie just said to me? He’s such a jerk.” That’s torture. Honestly, it's a miracle we get team assignments done because there is always that one friend who’s either crying over an ex or dying over how cute puppies are.

When working, choose productivity over pride. The reason being, it not only affects your quality of work by distracting you but also makes you the 90 year old grannie shouting from behind in the supermarket line. People legit fly away in the other direction when they see you.

But of course, in other cases, go ahead and release the waterworks. I’m still crying over Mufasa’s death anyway.

(I’m about to get deep, wearing that diving suit, alright). Conquering is hard. There’ll be days when you’ll feel like doing anything but that boring report Miss Honey assigned. Like, who cares whether the Nile or the Amazon is longer?

However, the mindset of a conqueror is so strong that the little demon called procrastination doesn’t stand a chance. You’ll see us partying the whole weekend because we already slayed ‘em rivers and hunted down those fishies Friday. Wanna join in? Here are some aspects of the conqueror mindset: 

Procrastination isn’t allowed. We understand that procrastination not only wastes precious time but basically means partying on a guilty mind. We would rather be that person drinking all them shots than be Abby sitting in the corner, worrying about her calc HW.

Discipline. Every conqueror knows that things need to be done at the right time (and in the right way, of course). Playing slither.io is great, but if you’re hooked for 7 hours and your poor report on rivers has turned into a dust bunny, then mate, you are not conquering. Get up and get the job done already.

Time management. It’s 11:58 pm. Your report (lol, get a grip mate) has finally been wiped of all that dust, and you’re settling to start on it. You open the first page of the assignment and have a mini heart attack. It says: Due by 12 am, xx Feb ‘18). To become a conqueror, hence, you must learn to travel back in time. JK. To become a conqueror, it’s important to value time because it's priceless. A year from now, those hours you spent eating all that snake kill in slither.io won't mean shit, but if you grind, if you choose to work hard, then every single moment will be memorable and pay off.

So, how do you do it? Ok, grab your notebook, grab your cauldron, and jot down. Let’s see what we got here... ‘Add a horn of bicorn’ and just a little bit of -what’s that- salamander blood?” *Potion explodes* Um, sorry for that mess. *Waves wand to clean*

Point is, there’s no secret spell to becoming disciplined and focused. Put down that wand, please. I’ll explain.

If you truly want to take control of your life, you must know your why. Why do you want to? Maybe you’re sick of procrastinating and letting yourself down? Maybe you're tired of being a couch potato and want to get that ass to the gym? Maybe Abby wants to drink them tequila shots too? Because unless you really want it, you won’t get it. It’s important to know your why and let it lead you into battle as your motivation.

In short, you have to be a superhero (I choose to be Superwoman!) and learn to conquer your life before you save Kim from the fire. Your life is truly valuable, and here's a secret: If you want to get results you have never gotten before, you're going to have to do things you've never done before. Everyone gets the same 24 hours in a day, the same opportunities, and the same chances to follow their dreams. They just make different choices. If you choose to re-watch F.R.I.E.N.D.S. for the 58th time while balancing chips in one hand and popcorn in the other, our world will lose one of its heroes.

But if you do decide to put on that superhero cape, I’m with you. Kim, hang on. We’re coming for you.

[ipitara-studyblr]

It has been quite a few days since I started my studyblr. But I came across this post by @myhoneststudyblr on 'to start your own studyblr'. So here's my brief introduction.

Name: call me akki/ illogical pitara

Age: 22

Location: India

What I am currently studying: Life sciences (I get cell biology, microbiology, Immunology, plant pathology, biostatistics etc in different semesters.)

Level of study: University

Pronoun: She/her

Hobbies: Painting, gardening, reading (i usually don't get time anymore due to uni)

Why I made my studyblr:

To stay up to date with my study tasks.

Also I am not active on any other social media, I start feeling anxious and need a break for some time.

And to really stop procrastinating.

Goals: To at least earn so much money so that I can start my own organic farm (to sustain myself) and run away somewhere where it is surrounded by tranquility. Also to find a sustainable lifestyle that doesn't harm nature.

What you can find here?: Notes, flowers, my point of view on book I am currently reading, my rants with no aesthetic maintained.

My inspiration studyblr: @medicineinside @myhoneststudyblr @stu-dna @gaaaandaaalf @nerdyign. Shout out to my fellow Indian mates :). You guys are amazing.

(Also my studyblr is quite boring. I maintain no aesthetic. It may contain some notes from my current book readings and mostly my notes that I make.

And I struggle with maintaining my bujo. A tough task!)

Updates: pursuing Masters in Biochemistry

Cafe and chaos

~~~

Went to a cafe to get some studying done and also get coffee beans cause i finished the one's at home super quick (finals be like that).

Chemistry final is tomorrow and i still have so much to do but honestly I've lost my motivation now. I just want this to be over with

I used diy flashcards by @emmastudies and they were such a help for learning chemical reactions! Tysm!

a ramble: “what the blog shall focus on”

HELLO FELLOW CONQUERORS! (Hype as always y'all, where’s that confetti I ordered?)

I've finally had the awareness and time to go in deep about what I want Conquer and this blog to stand for. If you've checked out the website version, you might've noticed the tiny box on the right, proclaiming the genres Thestudyfeels has.

Hilariously, it has everything. Travel, fitness, academics, work… EVERYTHING. And yet, I don't feel like it does.

*goes into rant mode* Too often, creators make the mistake of travelling ten different paths. Taking up five different projects that aren’t even related to one another. Doing twenty different things just for the sake of it. I made the same mistake as well, but here I am, ready to rectify it.

You see, I don't want to be remembered as some blogger who talked about life, sometimes about productivity, and every now and then about health. I want to be THE blogger who talked about life, gave enormous amounts of value through each post about productivity, and truly was able to create lifestyle systems for people which worked flawlessly.

... And that brings me to this. Last night, I sat down to perceive what Thestudyfeels would really give to you, my reader. Initially, I thought it would be difficult to dial into what Conquer should stand for - but it turned out to be surprisingly easy. As soon as I began, I was instantly like, “Life, Lifestyle and Work. That's it.” Probably because in my heart, I already knew that this is what resonates most with me. And hopefully, it will with you too.

Life —

I LOVE talking about life. It simply has so much to offer! There's your strong, impenetrable mindset to develop, a fearless heart to forge, bursting out of The Bubble Trap, building a great Conquer Circle, finding the right mentors… everything that's stunning (and shiny) which will create the awareness that you need in order to better your life. In this, I hope to offer the right awareness and help you get your facts right on what life's honestly about, straying away from the myths society's tryna sell to you.

Lifestyle —

Another great area to focus on! It is one thing to know what's right, and a completely different one, to implement the said right. So many people read the books, follow the blogs, go to the seminars but still feel like nothing ever changes. To prevent that and help you get your life back on track, Lifestyle is all about handcrafting a life worth remembering. This is about designing practical ways to be happier, or changing up that effed up sleep schedule, or setting up conqueror worthy habits and rituals. All to create a life that is truly magnificent.

Work —

To quote one of the biggest influences of my life, a man I have an insane amount of love and respect for, Robin, “An idea does NOT work if you're not willing to do the work.” Simply put, dreams don't come true unless you get your ass to work. This is something I have the most experience with, as a student, and more importantly, a dreamer. I want to give you tactics to generate insane amounts of focus, everyone's favourite, i.e. ‘working smarter not harder’, and being crazy productive to actually catch those dreams.

So there you have it! Life, Lifestyle, and Work. Truly comes to a full cycle if you're a conqueror looking to go deep instead of being shallow and simply “testing the waters” for your entire existence. Let’s build a life that, when you look back, moves you to tears (in all the right ways, that is).

As always, I hope you're killing the game, being of service and being unreasonably kind. I'm sending all my love your way. Stay strong and conquer life, you conqueror.
