One Thing I Really Enjoy Doing In My Journal Is Writing Down Beautiful Poems, Passages From Novels, And

Less than one week until the first exam.

I've reached the point where i can't wait for the day of the exam to have an excuse to get out of the house and dress up in something other than comfy house clothes.

Wish me luck!

Exam season is all about balance.

Study too much, you burn out

Study too little, you won't enjoy the results

So, here's my recent attempt at balance.

6/6 exams to go

some biology notes from last semester 🦎

Too anxious for the upcoming exams to be productive

A year ago posting my daily progress on Tumblr really helped, so I'm back

Here's to surviving this round of exams

preparing for the presentation I have to make next week!! the closer the time comes for me to speak in front of people the more I want to puke

real 'glow up' advice i wish i had

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!
