had a delicious brunch with my sister and went shopping for new clothes with a friend!! birthday week was awesome🩷
i love books with introductions and forewords because they help you better understand the circumstance in which the author was when he/she wrote so you can get a better idea of what the book is really about
i take very messy notes, especially when the professor speaks fast and i have to write in a hurry. many note-taking apps allow you to record the teacher's voice, so you can listen back to the lesson when you reorganize your notes at home. the notepad allows me to write pages and pages without wasting paper.
𝟮. charger ( 🔌 )
i often spend 9 or 10 hours at university and i can't risk one of my devices running out of battery. with a charger always in my bag i never risk finding myself unable to use my phone or notepad.
𝟯. water bottle ( 🍶 )
it is important to stay hydrated during the day, especially if you spend a lot of time at university. i recommend always having a two-liter water bottle available, especially during long lessons that require concentration.
𝟰. snacks/lunch ( 🍲 )
preparing healthy meals for lunch improves not only your health, but also your productivity and concentration during lessons. having snacks high in phosphorus and magnesium to consume throughout the day will prevent you from consuming junk food from vending machines. ( + don't forget chewing gums !! )
𝟱. hygiene bag ( 🌷 )
i'll make a specific post for this.
𝟲. umbrella ( ☂️ )
i admit i'm terrible at this because I always forget my umbrella. i'm lucky enough to live near the university, so i walk there, but it becomes a real problem when it starts raining and i have to run home in the rain. so always carry a small pocket umbrella in your bag, i suggest it from experience.
𝟳. books ( 📚 )
it may seem strange but i don't use books at university. many of the lessons in architecture are practical and we do not follow specific textbooks for the theoretical lessons (the professors prefer to provide us with materials and use powerpoints), but it depends on the faculty you attend, your study method and the teaching method of your professor.
