PRETEND YOU’RE OBAMA

school mindset

essays - make each essay you write better than the last


 small assignments - aim for 100s, expect 100s, get 100s


 homework - pretend they’re assignments


 homework that’s not graded - pretend! they’re! assignments!


 tests - study for 100s, expect less


 long term projects - act like it’s due in four days -even when it’s not- until you’re done with it


 group projects - do not get angry


 presentations - pretend you’re obama

disclaimer - this works for me, it may not work for everybody, do not push yourself too hard!!

how to start a studyblr

To all of those struggle to start a studyblr, I hope this small guide could help you in some ways. I knew that I struggled a lot at the starting point such as choosing themes, adjusting html, creating my contents and reaching to more people. 

The only tip I can see is just letting yourself out there and showing your creative and helpful work to your community. Wish you all good luck!

hi everyone- here’s the full spread for this past week !! i’ve been busy working on the app and it will be available on the app store testflight soon 🥳🥳

You ever see a pretty dress, a well-organised notebook, a peculiar balcony or read one line of poetry and get the overwhelming urge to reinvent yourself

Half chillin, half stressin

my personality is 30% the last movie I watched

Good stuff.

hottest language learning tip

write a diary

literally

just write a diary, it has helped me sooo much and i dare say it has been the most developing thing i’ve done while learning french, nothing else compares

1. you’re exposed to the language daily

2. you quickly see which words are missing from your vocabulary

3. you learn to write about the things you think about a lot

4. learning to actually think in your target language

5. having to look up words and when reading the entry back a couple of days later you can’t even remember which words you didn’t know

6. going back to the earlier entries and seeing all the mistakes and knowing how much better you’ve become

7. when you’ve been writing for a few months and your target language becomes a natural way for expressing yourself

8. when you’ve been writing for a few months and you start seeing the diary writing as a way of self-expression and stressrelief, and the language learning aspect becomes natural and secondary

9. filling out a whole book using only your target language and physically seeing how much you’ve accomplished

The other day a recruiter asked me about my R experience. I told him about the project I worked on in R (aka the only one) and how, since it has similarities to Python, I could probably pick up new functions and libraries if needed. I even mentioned a specific library I learned about in my course and how certain parts are different in R.

He told me it was refreshing that I was honest and self-aware about my skill level in R. Because he’s had dudes tell him they’re R superstars only to completely fail the supposedly simple test in R. I wasn’t worried telling him this because, let’s be honest, this is an entry-level position for a bachelor’s degree. The recruiter knows this. There’s no point in pretending to be an expert. Just make sure you can show that you’re competent.

He also REALLY loved my resume. He even said that my resume made him think, “damn, I need to step up my game” about his own resume. Because it’s easy to read and has everything laid out properly. It is something that recruiters definitely notice when they actually look at your resume rather than just shoving it through an ATS.
