Hello all! I’ve been getting a lot of questions based on how I balance school and home life, so I’ve decided I’m going to break down my days, hour by hour, over the course of the week beginning Monday 24th September 2018.
I’m mainly doing this because I love finding out how people use their days - and because I would personally benefit from really analysing how I use my own. Is this something you’d like to see?
Hey! Love your page. I love all your notes and it reminds me of mine! I love to spend each day learning the subjects (chemistry, physics and maths) especially maths and physics because they offer huge new challenges. I’m intrigued to know what your favourite topic in chemistry is though?
Thank you so much! I am a sucker for anything organic - particularly when you’re dealing with aromatic compounds as well as aliphatic and alicyclic ones :)
07/09/2018 Biology notes in the local library!
I met up with a friend and we are having a very productive day.
I’ve just hit 50 followers and my tumblr has blown up today because I have thrown myself into the community. You all are amazing my friends, even if I cannot physically message everyone individually to tell you that.
- you are a studyblr
- you are super friendly
- you love when people message you
- you want to support everyone in the community
one thing i love about this community is that it is one big family and everyone is ready to support eachother. reblog this and follow the people that also reblog and start some super cute supportive friendships because you all deserve the best
I wrote a letter to my uni friend today. Along with it, I sent her some homemade star confetti, a list of music and films I was enjoying (she shared her playlist with me first and I thought it was a cute idea), and a handwritten copy of my favourite Brecht poem, since we met each other in German class. I hope she likes them as much as I do.
What an awesome way to turn 18! Although I could have gone to more museums and just generally done more, the stuff I did do was fantastic and I’m sharing with you a really important point of interest. Yeah we did the Reichstag and the Brandenburger Tor and the East Side Gallery - and the Deutsches Spionagemuseum (which was amazing!), but I think one of the most profound landmarks we visited was the Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas.
I wanted to take time to see the memorial for the murdered Jewish people of the Holocaust and really just wander and ponder. It’s such an eerily tranquil place - a black hole in the middle of a bustling city. It’s disorienting and yet peaceful. Claustrophobic and rigid but very organic and human too, somehow.
I vow to make my adulthood one that will ensure that such immense suffering never happens again.
Not long until A Levels are behind me...
which is a good thing because I - funnily enough - hate La Haine
My resolution: to get this account more active next year! In all seriousness, 2019 was a complete upheaval of everything I knew and wanted, full of salutations and goodbyes in equal measure. It brought me new friends and experiences but also new anxieties. I’m still working on feeling comfortable in this world and I have a long way to go but I’ve come so far. I am proud of myself - and I wish it didn’t sound so arrogant to be able to say so. So what if my A levels weren’t quite what I was gunning for? So what if the university I am attending isn’t the one that filled my childhood dreams? So what if the course I am pursuing isn’t the one I maybe should have chosen based on my personal talents? I’m happy and learning so much every day. I can’t wait for 2020 and I hope it brings you all good things as my super supportive followers.
Wow, my feed is getting awfully specific 😳
Me: The main problem isn’t necessarily the volume, it’s the dissonance
a neurotypical: if you have noise sensitivity why do you listen to loud music?
me: one loud noise is easier than 20 loud noises all at once.
I’m so so happy I’ve finished this topic because a lot of it is just common sense. However, lessons are a laugh, as always :)
Analysing Der Vorleser in German is really amazing and I have my first essay to write on it this week! I really want to smash it out the park.
Maths is going well - I’ve used all this time I have to take it a bit easy these past two days because I felt like I was neglecting French.
Chemistry work is all done! AND I was in bed for 9:45pm, too :)
Plus - there’s supposed to be a biology test next week and I’m going to miss it for a visit day to Birmingham, which might just mess my schedule up but I’m excited for the visit nonetheless.
Have a great rest-of-week guys!
