#new to studyblr

∘₊✧───ₛₜᵤdybₗᵣ ᵢₙₜᵣₒdᵤcₜᵢₒₙ───✧₊∘

hello! I'm @psychstudydream :)

i've been around on studyblr for about 7/8 years but I decided to start afresh on a new blog since it's been a while.

∘₊✧───ₐbₒᵤₜ ₘₑ───✧₊∘

I'm a final year criminology & sociology student in the uk. I'm doing my dissertation on perceptions of public opinions of sentencing!

after graduating, I'll be taking a year out to save up and get some volunteering/work experience before applying for a masters in psychology (conversion)!

I'd like to be a clinical psychologist :)

∘₊✧───ₘy ᵢₙₜₑᵣₑₛₜₛ───✧₊∘

I like: gracie abrams, lana del rey, taylor swift, ghost, chappell roan, twilight, gilmore girls, to all the boys I've loved before, reading, writing, nature, journalling, exploring, studying, looking after my plants, politics, cute things, shopping, cooking, baking, watching documentaries, & spending time with my family :)

∘₊✧───ₜₕᵢₛ ₐccₒᵤₙₜ───✧₊∘

I have just under five weeks until my dissertation and other assignment is due, so for now this account will mostly be focused on content related to that! I'll be posting studyspo, motivation, updates, timelapses, deskspo, etc etc !! :) after I graduate, this account will shift to be focused on my journey towards becoming a clinical psychologist.

∘₊✧───ₘy ᵢₙₛₚᵢᵣₐₜᵢₒₙₛ───✧₊∘

I haven't been on studyblr for a long time, so unfortunately I don't have any studyblr inspirations... (if u think I'd like ur account plsss comment so I can follow u, I need more studyblrs to follow, even if ur not criminology, sociology, or psychology based!!!!!!!!)

my non studyblr inspirations / sources of motivation are the psych diaries and sharon b psych!

thx for reading! pls interact with this post so we can be studyblr moots !!! :):)

This week:

we're doing biochemistry now! The professor is great and also talks about medical applications of what we're learning, which is neat. I still cannot get my eyes to see stereoview images in 3D, especially not on a screen. good thing I don't want to be a structural biochemist anyway.

I'm still figuring out the time management for my geoscience module (we did atmosphere and weather this week!). I'm normally a fast reader but slow way down when I'm taking notes. This week we also have an activity where we need to run a model and comment on the results, which I've started on but am nowhere near finished.

even though I wasn't done with my reading I went on a museum scavenger hunt with the archaeology society on Friday. We narrowly didn't win but saw some cool stuff and everyone who participated could pick something out in the gift shop, so I got some postcards.

campus is really picturesque in fall with all the trees and leaves etc.

i need to find the hat i made last year because, having short hair, i'm cold! also i need some new fingerless gloves for working in the library.

I did one (1) workout, which is better than 0 I guess

on the weekend I went to a friend's house to help press apple juice for cider, which was fun and a nice break. we will drink the results some time next spring/summer. his dog was very pleased that i was there and kept demanding pets throughout the day 💚

✦ Women's Hygiene Tips

▪ Thoroughly dry key areas Dry areas like the intimate region, armpits, and feet completely after showering to prevent bacteria and odour caused by trapped moisture.

▪ Apply deodorant at night It allows sweat glands to absorb the product more effectively when they’re less active, making it last longer.

▪ Moisturise after a shower Moisturise immediately after showering while the skin is damp to lock in hydration and keep the skin soft.

▪ Apply body oil after moisturizing Layering body oil over moisturizer seals in hydration and gives the skin a healthy, glowing appearance.

▪ Layer perfume and mist on damp skin Helps the scent adhere better and last throughout the day.

▪ Avoid scented products for intimate areas Scented products can disrupt the natural pH balance, leading to irritation or infections, so opt for plant-based, fragrance-free washes.

▪ Use a dedicated razor for intimate areas A specialised razor designed for sensitive areas gives a smoother shave with fewer ingrown hairs or irritation.

▪ Apply oil after shaving Using oil post-shave hydrates the skin, prevents ingrown hairs, and reduces dark spots or hyperpigmentation.

▪ Carry baby wipes during menstruation Baby wipes are essential for freshening up during periods, especially when access to water is limited, ensuring better hygiene.

▪ Incorporate dry brushing Dry brushing exfoliates dead skin, improves circulation, and leaves the skin baby-soft and radiant. Do not dry brush your skin if you have eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea or any skin condition similar.

▪ Always shampoo your hair twice The first shampoo removes surface oils and build-up, while the second deep-cleans the scalp and hair for optimal cleanliness.

▪ Use unscented soap with a washcloth Unscented soap paired with a washcloth or sponge provides a gentle but thorough cleanse, avoiding irritation from harsh chemicals.

▪ Include glycolic acid in skincare Glycolic acid exfoliates and removes dead skin cells, reducing body odour by keeping pores clean and clear.

▪ Don’t rinse out toothpaste completely Retain some fluoride by avoiding a full rinse after brushing to strengthen enamel and protect teeth longer.

2025!! …that’s not a real year

[animus-studies]

some new study spots last week: the nameless library, and (briefly) this little garden when i realised that the weather had turned sunny for like 1.2 hours (and then promptly went back to "buckets of rain")

i didn't really post last week, busy Doing Stuff - I made it to the archery club's training sessions finally! they have ticketed sessions for beginners on thursdays when i'm usually not free.

also we had an "activity" for the geoscience module that took up a chunk of my time but it's done now. we had to run some simulations and answer like 40 questions but then the actual assessment was just 10 multiple choice questions about our results. (easy 100%! - 1st year grades don't count for anything but, begin as you mean to go on)

this week, reading week is upon us! (or "study week", officially, but everyone says reading week.) it's meant to be a chance for you to review what you have learned so far, we have some midterm quizzes coming up and I have an essay and a lab report to write as well.

i also want to spend some time with my partner, my collections of video games, books and yarn, and maybe organise my room a bit, it's a bit of a mess.

Ok so I found this trend going on till 2016, so thought off to start it again.

Let's see your resolution for the year 2025.

RULES

1. Screenshot and reblog the first message that comes!

2. No cheating!!
