managed to squeeze in a kinokuniya run this time ! got a couple of new graph paper notepads and a replacement midori dot graph notebook for the one i’ve filled up,,
also picked up a scrikss graph-x mechanical pencil, which is pretty much a dupe of the rotring 800 😊😊 im excited to try it out, maybe it’ll be my dedicated travel pencil w the retractable feature
overall successful ny trip, 10/10 would trip again
First day of class was on Monday! I’m feeling pretty positive right now! However, my disability of hearing loss has really impacted how I do my blood pressures. Luckily I found an electronic stethoscope, only down side is the price!

Look for journals that are 100-160gsm so they can hold up to all sorts of tools and supplies.
19.08.22 🌼 back to school season is approaching and of course i have been taken in by the stationery even though my next term doesn't start for another 6 weeks 🏃 i have a huge list of books to buy for my literature module too
I’m not an aesthetically pleasing person. I’m very messy and things get discombobulated very easily when I do my daily tasks. So sometimes when I look at the pretty aesthetic photos on here I feel a bad. I feel bad that my walls aren’t white, that my desk isn’t always neat, that I don’t have aesthetic cups and notebooks and that I don’t have pretty handwriting. But it doesn’t mean that I don’t get things done. I just get things done in a messy way and that shouldn’t be something I feel bad about. I think a lot more people on here should post the realities of their spaces so that we can all relish in the fact that being human means being messy and then we can go back to the aesthetics. The past two weeks have been low for me but I’m still doing things and that’s better than nothing. Let’s be messy and get shit done anyways.
how do people on studyblr have such organised study sessions.they look so aesthetic,they always have a ton of supplies and overall look so sincere.meanwhile,i study with barely any supplies on hand and look like a pig in a pig sty while doing so.
//I was craving something nice so I ordered waffles from this popular restaurant (I've always disliked the food they make there, but the reviews on swiggy were so good I decided to go ahead with it :p) and it was so BAD. The waffles were dry af and the chocolate sauce was just Hersey's and they didn't send cut fruit like I had asked but put in blueberry jam instead. Idk why I'm ranting about it on a study blog but whatever. Major L for today.//
Temu shopping platform is my new decorating secret. I've found gorgeous wallpaper there, cute curtains, a vegan leather storage ottoman, wall tile, and scrapbooking supplies. These pics show work in progress of the repairs I am making to my research cabin at Lake Eufaula, OK.
I love the stuff that I found at Temu so much that I applied to their brand ambassador/influencer program. Here's my invitation link, which gets a new user two massive discounts coupons. Also, use the promo code when you shop to get up to 30% off of your purchase. It even works on sale and clearance merchandise!
Accept my invitation to get exclusive discounts at my new favorite store - up to 30%.
Search my code in Temu or tap my link to download & accept my invitation.
Please note: While some of these listed prices are high, I have rarely paid full price or with my own money for these items. I rely on sales, giftcards from holidays, birthday gifts, clearance items, repackaged items sold at a discount, sample packs from “dollar” stores, etc. Additionally, none of these items are “required” to be a good student, to run a studyblr, to journal, etc. These are just tools that I love and personally use on a regular basis, are of a good quality, suit my needs and skills, etc. Peace, love, and happy studying!
