Hi :) I haven’t posted anything for a long time because I gave myself a challenge of 30 days of study and nothing extra. I spent this month very productive, but now I want to do the “100 days of productivity” challenge and share my successes
the only photo I took today. finalized the schedule and materials I will use in my review so I can focus on studying for the next few months.
Study:
answered week 1 handouts for FAR
📕 Total study time: 1 hour
📚 Read: Intermezzo by Sally Rooney 73%
👣 Steps: 5,049 steps
18/10/2024
Its the official start of the review season but my first day is on Saturday. Plotted the topics for week 1. Tomorrow I'll start answering the handouts. The goal is to start watching the online lectures on Thursday. Will attend classes this weekend too to test the waters on what lectures to attend to. I have to maximize my time now.
I also have to finish my video lectures from another review center to complete my completion phase of the review. The scheduled completion phase should be done last week but I got burnt out last month that's why I'm only starting to bounce back now. My new goal is to finish the completion phase before this year ends.
Since my review era has kicked off, I have to take care of myself more to avoid getting sick.
Some of my health goals starting December are:
eat vegetables everyday
restrict my sugar intake
drink more water (failing miserably on this these days)
16hr intermittent fasting
10k steps per day
try OMAD once a week
Win of the day
finally folded my clothes that I've laundered this weekend
16th day of June 2023
a not so productive day for me. I feel so down lately that my body doesn't cooperate on studying. planned to study tonight but just got the result from one of my exams and I failed it. as much as I want to grind more in order to bounce back, my thoughts are scattered and chaotic so I might just sleep the sadness away. hoping to have a better day tomorrow.
Productivity:
answered theoretical questions on FAR
read estate tax
organized my clothes
Self-care:
3k steps today
Introducing myself! Been a fan of #studyblr since I was in senior high school but it is only now that I've created one. This is due to my procrastination tendencies and my overall laziness. I have to create this account as a way of being accountable in my integrated review.

From the Philippines
She/her

Studying in one of the state universities in the Ph
BS Accountancy
Hoping to graduate this year
Short-term Goals:
To graduate on time

That's it for now! I will try to post my progress everyday as a way of accountability.
Gotta make a comeback!
Time to open eyes into the world of pre-PG examination. Enough of being a mediocre now!
I'm giving myself 21 days to break this slothy lifestyle and getting back to my topper girl era.
How am I gonna do it?
1. Wake up early and eat the frog.
2. Plan for the day first thing in the morning.
3. Utilize those 10-15 minutes between classes, in lunch time etc for reviewing class notes.
4. Meditation and eye exercises.
5. Keep a track of how many hours did I study.
6. Cut down on content consumption.
7. Cut down on dopamine.
8. Living more intentionally.
By constant efforts, practice and patience, you can achieve anything that you want... ANYTHING!
Big dreams seem to be impossible untill we start working for them.
Always remember:
It is gonna be difficult on day one...even more difficult for the next few days...but slowly it becomes a part of our routine. No extra push or effort is required then❤️
So, even if you are starting today, smile...be proud of yourself❤️❤️
Keep grinding 🍁
I couldn't post anything cuz I had a viral fever🤧
Things won't always be as we expect. This time taught me something big ...
We all have dreams... We all want to earn, spend time with family, eat our favourite food, do something for our country, have a dog, dance in the rain(yes... that's a dream too) etc etc. And what are we doing? Waiting for the right time to start living our dreams? Seriously?
There will be a time in life when we will have everything thing but our body will become a limitation itself. We should be thankful to God for each moment of good health 🙏
Let's not wait for the perfect "time" and start living every moment... Enjoy every small thing🤗 Happiness is a choice❤️
And....
Day 46
April 5th 2021
Recently I started a new practice. I have started tracking my study hours (minutes, to be precise)
And to my surprise, I don't study for more than six hours!!
Also,,, those six hours are sufficient for me to get done with all my tasks!
Anywayyy.... My goal this month is to take those 6 hours to 9.
🧡🧡
Day 43
April 2nd 2021
I dunno why,,, but I can't take pretty(or, even clear) notes while studying with all my focus...
I prefer giving more time to actually studying than making my notes look "cute".
(To be honest I lack patience that is required to have pretty notes🤭🤭)
And...like they say:
"Perfect" is the enemy of "done'!!!
Day 36
March 26th 2021
Things are getting harder🤯🤯
There are so many things that I missed studying last year...
But it's okay...cuz my teacher says, "If everything seems to be smooth, you are not on the right path."
"Jo aakhiri tak tik jaega woh jeet jaega"
(The one who will keep going till the end will win)
So🙌🙌 Let's be happy if we are facing problems and not giving up on them ❤️
Day 31
March 21st 2021
Is it just me or does everybody's handwriting depend on mood??🤭
🙌just finished Biology syllabus for Wednesday test🙌
Day 29
March 19th 2021
Staying hydrated and healthy is super important for physical as well as mental health.
So let's make it a point to not ruin our health in order to save 30 minutes!
Day 26
March 16th 2021
The conventional pomodoro does not work for me. So I have modified it a lil bit and it's really helpful.
I break my study session into 30 minutes sub-sessions and switch between two subjects every 30 minutes. No breaks. One session is usually 2 hours long and productivity is high.
Give it a try!
Day 24
March 14th 2021
Fail: First attempt in learning...Really?
We all are very enthusiastic when we begin...but towards the end all kinds of negative emotions and self doubt surround us. People say that you should believe in yourself...but hey! Is it that easy? Especially after having lost the game once? It's very easy to say that failures is first attempt in learning, but let me tell you failure sucks. Failure takes your self-confidence. Failure makes you feel smaller... It feels as if you've lost your own self.
Let's work on it and prove it, not to the world but ourselves, that we are no less.
❤️❤️

October is vanilla-scented candles, hot chocolate, walks in the park, discovering new music , cozy movies , naps on windy afternoons and getting good grades on exams.
I got a 9.7 in Physics and I will soon have my Chemistry exam, it is the subject that I find most difficult but I will do my best to get a decent grade. I'm recently reading "The Spiral Staircase" by Ethel Lina White, it's a very interesting book and it's gothic! , the best for this season, a song that I recommend for these days is "Constellations" by The Oh hellos , I hope everyone enjoys these cold days 🍂🌕( ◜‿◝ )♡
This is my first post here ! , I want to stay motivated by romanticizing college, I'm in my first year of biology , so I hope to be more productive , this week I had studied thermodynamics in ecosystems and some basic chemical equations :)

Pink gloves make the world a better place 💖
In the heart of war-torn Gaza, where destruction and loss are a daily reality, lies the deeply moving tale of Dr. Husam Farhat and his family. Amidst the relentless bombardment, Dr. Farhat faced an unthinkable tragedy: the martyrdom of his beloved sisters, Inas and Amal, along with their husbands and children, and his brother Mustafa. This devastating loss shattered not only their dreams but also their hopes for a peaceful future.
Before the war, my life revolved around a beautiful home where I lived with my wife, our daughter Sham, and our sons Muhannad and Muhammad. This home was more than just a place to live; it was a sanctuary filled with love, warmth, and the joy of watching my children grow. Every corner of our home echoed with their laughter, turning it into a place where dreams for the future felt not only possible but inevitable, but then the war came, and in an instant, everything changed. The place where we once felt safe and secure was reduced to rubble. The life we had carefully built, the dreams we had nurtured, and the bright future we had planned were all torn apart. The war didn’t just destroy our home; it uprooted our entire existence, leaving us with nothing but the painful memories of what once was, Now, standing in the ruins of our former life, I'm left with fragments of a distant dream. The joy and security we once knew have been replaced by loss and uncertainty as we face a future overshadowed by harsh realities.
And it wasn’t just my home that was destroyed. My accounting office, one of the most renowned in Palestine, was also reduced to rubble. I had worked tirelessly to build this office, which wasn't just a place of business but a reflection of my passion and dedication to the field of accounting. It was our primary source of income, providing financial stability and security for my family, My office was well-known for its exceptional services and strong reputation among clients. Over the years, it had become a symbol of success and hard work in the accounting world. But the war took it all away in an instant. Everything I had worked so hard to achieve was destroyed, and years of effort and dedication were wiped out in moments, Now, I stand on the ruins of my office, just as I stand on the ruins of my life, trying to piece together the remnants of my dreams and memories. This office was a source of pride for me and my family, but the war has left us with nothing, facing an uncertain and difficult future.
The war didn’t just destroy my home and office; it shattered my dreams and future. As a PhD candidate in Accounting Information Systems at Universiti Utara Malaysia, I was in my final year, pursuing research that is a significant contribution to my field and valuable to entrepreneurs. With a master’s degree with distinction and a bachelor's degree, I also taught at several universities, sharing my knowledge and passion, But the war disrupted everything. Years of hard work, academic progress, and my contributions to the field have been torn apart, leaving me with an uncertain future. Now, I am faced with the daunting task of not only rebuilding my life but also reviving the dreams and ambitions that once drove me. The journey ahead is filled with challenges, but my resolve to continue remains strong.
Now, after all this devastation, my family and I are living as displaced people, homeless and jobless, with no clear future for ourselves or our children. Every day is a struggle to find food for my children, who have been robbed of every chance at a normal life by this war. Once, we lived in Shuja'iyya, in North Gaza, where we had a home, a life, and dreams. But now, after being displaced over nine times, we find ourselves in the refugee camps of Nuseirat, the war has stripped us of everything—our home, our security, and our future. Our daily life has become a constant search for basic necessities, a far cry from the life we once knew. The dreams I had for my children and myself now feel like distant memories, overshadowed by the relentless challenges of survival. Each day brings new uncertainties, as we navigate this harsh new reality, clinging to the hope that one day we might rebuild what was lost.
We urgently call on all those who stand in solidarity with us, and every supporter, to help save what remains of our lives. Your assistance, even in small ways, can make a significant difference in helping us rebuild and restore our shattered world, rebuilding feels like an insurmountable task, but with your help, we can begin to piece together what was lost. Your contributions, no matter how small, can provide the foundation we need to start anew, offering hope and a chance at a better future for our family. Your solidarity means the world to us as we navigate these challenging times.
Thank you for your compassion, your time, and your commitment to freedom and justice.
With deepest gratitude,
Dr. Farhat's Family
