When I study, it helps me a lot to write down the information, even if I don't go back to look at it, so it would've been a lot of paper waste on my part. I decided to get a tablet and I'm a huge Android fan. This is my Samsung tab s6, i got it second hand, and after one year of using it a lot, I still have no complaints!
Highly recommend it :)
(you can also attach a keyboard and make it a super portable 'laptop')
I request advice! I'll be starting on a new academic road this coming August and I desire to not use as much paper as I did in undergraduate.
For context, I'm a mathematics student for whom hand-typed notes are made more accessible by LaTeX but still not easily producible during a lecture, particularly if that lecture involves multiple operations, fractions within fractions, and symbols I haven't encountered before. In geometry classes, there is no hope. Moreover, practicing mathematics context is best done by hand, at least for me.
What I'm seeking are paper-less options that will still allow me to "hand write." I've seen iPad and Apple Pencil recommendations online, but I prefer non-Apple products. What has worked well for others, math or non-math?

Totally disconnected from reality for a few days.
Haven't checked any sort of social media, just vibed by myself at home. Made my productivity skyrocket. Started reading "It" by Stephen King, caught up on my favourite classes and overall i just enjoyed myself.
What books are you currently reading?
Imagine getting to the point in life where YOU are your own vision board; where you are that girl who has the life that you want, and you don't have to seek it out through other people. That should be the ultimate goal.
Here are subtle things that you should be doing to channel your ideal person and improve yourself for the better FROM THE INSIDE
take care of your hygiene: brush your teeth every day, wash your face with soap, wash your hair, take meaningful showers
be kind to yourself: speak nicely to yourself, treat yourself every now and then, love yourself exactly the way you came
make the effort: do your hair and wear something cute, even if you're only going to the supermarket. I bet your ideal self looks stunning wherever she goes, so make that effort if you really want to become her
move your body: dance to some music for just 5 minutes, take a walk, get off the bus a (reasonable) few stops earlier and walk the rest of the way
romanticise the hell out of your life: wear those bows, create that vision board, play that aesthetic background music even if you're just washing the dishes, wear that outfit!!!!!
admire yourself: look at yourself in the mirror and remember what you look like, take a million selfies to look back and smile at, give yourself a compliment every time you pass your reflection
get creative: if you want cute decor, make it! if you want cute clothes, find some easy DIYs!
focus on what you can control: if you cannot change the situation, let it resolve itself. don't waste your precious time obsessing over something you cannot change
get to know yourself (again): rediscover your hobbies, try new activities, learn to appreciate your solitude, get out of your shell
I really wish I was part of a community like this when I was going through a really insecure and lonely phase of my life.
Instead of deciding to wake up a 3am every day from now on, and trying to reach 20k steps every day, start small and walk your way up to greatness!
And so, the simplest things bring me the most joy
what is something that sets you up for your day? 🌤🍵 it feels so nice to wake up to a view of your stack of favorite books every morning 🥹✨ i’ve had this little “favorites” stack for a while, and lately it’s been growing in size, which is always great ☺️🤍 oh, and it’s always lovely to play a familiar film in the background to set the mood 💫🌷🎨 https://www.instagram.com/p/ClBfL5zvtXg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Growth takes time 🪴 remember that when you’re feeling discouraged about your progress or where you are at now, and it applies to all areas of your life!
T-1 day until my physics II final and the last exam of my undergraduate degree! 🎀
