I hate small talk. I wanna talk about atoms, death, aliens, sex, magic, intellect, the meaning of life, faraway galaxies, music that makes you feel different, memories, the lies you’ve told, your flaws, your favourite scents, your childhood, what keeps you up at night, your insecurities and fears. I like people with depth, who speak with emotion from a twisted mind. I don’t want to know ‘what’s up’.

Incorrect Harry Potter #24

Ravenclaw: I mean, small creatures are way more vicious than big creatures. It’s because their anger has less space to be bottled up in.

Gryffindor: Ridiculous. Give me an example.

Slytherin: Wasps.

Ravenclaw: Spiders.

Slytherin: Hufflepuff.

If You Can’t Put Two And Two Together And Have To Immediately Blurt Out “not All Men” Then I Will

If you can’t put two and two together and have to immediately blurt out “not all men” then I will assume from now on that whenever anyone says anything to you, that you don’t have the intelligence to realize it might not be aimed at you and clarify people’s statements for you constantly.

here are some techniques that i use to make my study hours better:

First, learn a general concept, second, learn a few facts and details, and third, identify a few examples.

Don’t sit for hours. Walk around and say the information aloud. Use a white board or flip chart to write and test your memory.

Use humor and association to help focus on and remember meaningless lists of facts.

Associate new with previously learned information. This enhances your ability to learn, integrate and retain it.

Take a timed, practice test in a room similar to the one in which you will be tested.

Take a few minutes after you read a selection to write a brief summary and then add two facts and examples.

Learn the elements of a diagram and then recreate it from memory on a blank page. Check accuracy and edit, if necessary.

Define a purpose for reading and then select a strategy for that purpose. Ask, “Should I survey, skim, or read closely?”

Study with the sound of your own voice. If you’re going to class (and you should be), you might as well make the time you spend taking notes count. When you get the due date for a test, record yourself reading your notes that you took in class, and be sure to include any of your own personal commentary to better understand the material. This takes very little time (depending on how fast/slow you read your notes), and then later when you’re walking to and from class, you can pop your earbuds in and listen to the sweet sounds of portable studying. Now any time you are just going about basic, mundane activities – showering, doing laundry, cleaning – can also be spent studying. Multitasking at its finest.

Put your phone to work. You reach for your phone at least a million times a day (that’s a made-up, but potentially realistic statistic), so why not let it help you do some studying? Make your phone background or lock screen into a study guide. Put formulas, keywords, or class material that you need to know front and center. Every time you go to pick up your phone, you’ll be confronted with the study material, and have a very mini-study session available to you in your pocket at all times.

Leave yourself love study notes. The whole point of this one is to get the material in front of your eyes as much as possible. Whether it’s posting some flashcards by your mirror, or keeping some reading material by the toilet (hey, that’s a bit of free time), putting your study material in the places you frequent the most makes you more likely to be reminded of the things you need to know. Not only will this jog your memory, but it will also make the class material front and center, reminding you to be thinking about it and perhaps even nestling itself in your brain for later recall.

also don't forget the pomodoro technique, it's really effective and it really boosted up the duration of my study hours. hope we both get good grades :) please keep in mind that these may work out for some and not for others. it helped me and i hope it does to you as well.

there's nothing wrong in seeking help when you need it. you got this champ!
