yet another list of "beautiful" words

to try to include in your next poem/story

Book-bosomed - coined by Sir Walter Scott; means "carrying a book at all times." If you love books, certainly you've been book-bosomed at times in your life.

Caliginous - misty, dark

Dithyramb - a usually short poem in an inspired wild irregular strain. This word comes from the Greek word dithyrambos which was the name for a wild and irregular poem honoring Dionysus, the god of wine, who was often lauded throughout the year during festivals at which poems of this style were read.

Embonpoint - plumpness of person; stoutness

Farinaceous - having a mealy texture or surface

Farouche - marked by shyness and lack of social graces

Florilegium - a volume of writings; an anthology. The word was borrowed into English from a New Latin word that comes from Latin florilegus meaning "culling flowers." Think of a florilegium as a bouquet of writings, specially selected and arranged for your enjoyment.

Goety - black magic or witchcraft in which the assistance of evil spirits is invoked

Lachrymist - one given to weeping

Lamia - a female demon; vampire

Osseous - bony

Phantasmagoria - a bizarre or fantastic combination, collection, or assemblage

Stygian - extremely dark, gloomy, or forbidding

Tenebrous - shut off from the light

Theurgy - the art or technique of compelling or persuading a god or beneficent or supernatural power to do or refrain from doing something

If any of these words make their way into your next poem/story, please tag me, or leave a link in the replies. I would love to read them!

Recently I've been much more dedicated to my French learning - organizing weekly practice phone calls with friends, listening to podcasts, reading books, etc. I'm amazed by the difference it's already had on both my comprehension and my confidence!

I fall off the horse, but always get back on it. It may take a while, but the goal will be accomplished.

(8/30) What have I learned recently ? -> Learning French is not linear at allll. The first lesson I had with my tutor we were chatting so fluidly but today I really struggled to generate thoughts in French 🥲 It’s okay though, I’m still a lil sick now so the next lesson will go better 📖✨

42/100 days of productivity

I stayed up a bit late yesterday because I had to submit my work before June 1st. I edited around 2,000 words and wrote another 500. Other than that, I mostly spent the day reading since it was Saturday.

--- Days of Productivity [7/10] ---

• Color Affirmation Challenge Day 1 •

Oh look I'm doing two challenges at once.

I created a new challenge for myself where I choose a color for the day and live according to what the color symbolises. (Studyblrs, if you see this, feel free to do this challenge yourself!! Tag me though I would like to see 👀)

💛🖤Today's color is a combination of black and yellow. When used together, black and yellow can create a striking contrast that represents a combination of power, sophistication, and energetic positivity. I've been going through a very anxious and self-depreciating phase and learning to empower myself and remind myself just how much I am worth to the people who love me is really helping <3

today was great! i’ve recently started practicing yoga in the mornings, and i’m loving it so much. other than yoga, i make sure to do physical activity during the day, and today it was walking.

after that, i spent the afternoon planning my upcoming academic year and the rest of my plan & goals for the remainder of this summer.

🌟 i’m using an excel sheet to track my performance in each course i’m studying. basically, it helps me determine which topics i’m confident with and which topics i’m struggling with, so i know what topics to study and work on everyday (start with the weakest topic).

Day 32/100 days of productivity

I solved and analysed a few questions from the 2021 paper. A few questions from physics and a few from botany. And I wrote the video explanations near the book explanations.

I read Wuthering heights for 15 minutes (only😭).

Finished lec 2 of solids, I guess.

I forgot what else I did. Oh my God, what's happening to me.

How to get things done ✔️📝📚

Methods I use to get all my to-dos done each day! Hope these will help with the stressed to blessed challenge or just life in general!

Create a set time each day that you will work on tasks

Find a time each day that you will always start eventually you will find it easier to start each day on that time.

Eat the frog

Whatever task is scaring you the most or is the one you dont want to do start with that.

During your set productive time always start with the worst one and get it out of the way.

If it’s a massive task that will take a long time make it so you at least start it. Set a timer work for that long.

Race the timer

Estimate how long you think each task will take set a timer than try and beat the timer.

This will help with anxiety because you will most likely way over estimate how long each task will take and you will get even more satisfaction knowing you finished a task and got it done in a timely manner.

5 minutes rule

If it takes less than 5 minutes do it immediately. Don’t wait as soon as you think of it do it

No phone during breaks.

I’m a full supporter of taking breaks but you should never scroll social media during breaks!!!!

You are more likely to stop working if you get interested in your phone!!

I recommend during breaks tidying your space, stretching, making a snack, clearing out some unused tabs on your computer, deleting spam from your email, anything that lets your brain have a break without a ton of stimulation.

Pomodoro timers for long hauls

If you absolutely need to do a long work block you should be taking frequent breaks. I use the YouTube pomodoro timers often typically it’s work for 25 minutes and break for 5.

You become ineffective if you just work work work. Those influencers who say the study for 4hrs straight are not using time wisely and are going to burn out fast.

Do not multitask.

It is not more effective and won’t save you time.

Focus on getting one thing done at a time and you won’t have to go back and fix as many mistakes.

That’s all I have for now but if I come up with more I’ll add to it. Hope this helps you be more productive cuties🤍🎧🧘🏼‍♀️
