zoomester study challenge | march 1-2, 2021;

day 1: introduce yourself! what’s some basic info you’d like to share about yourself? what are you studying?

hey there! i’ve been here for a while, but i’m lama. i am a third culture kid and currently a senior in my last semester of university in washington, dc. i am studying interdiscplinary studies in comm, law, economics, and governemnt, followed by two minors in computer science and information systems and technology. i am also in my uni’s honors program, so i love learning, reading, and doing research. but i also love indie music, sitcoms, and now? baking.

day 2: why did you decide on your major?

i have thought about changing my major several times. but because i am interested in the intersections of policy, law, and technology such as algorthimic bias (ai in policing), data privacy rights, digital advocacy and equality (digital divide), and cybersecurity… i thought it was great to understanding technology through my minors, but also on the policy level through my major. it’s so much work, but i am almost there!

 monday feb. 8, 2021 | 89 days until graduation

hi there! hope you all have had a great weekend. my state saw about 8 inches of snow over the past few days and i’ve done nothing but shovel, drink hot chocolate, and sit warmly by vanilla scented candles. the countdown to graduation is now in the double digits, and i am still behind in my readings!!

I didn't sleep well last night so I gave myself permission to do nothing and just get through the day, ended up tidying my room and sat through a meeting that was actually inspiring. note to self: Mondays can be okay.

16/01/2021 I started a course in French. I had some classes in high school, but now I want to learn it properly. So far I have really enjoyed it, I finally have a reason to make flash cards again! I’m also trying to get through my TBR pile, but it is quite difficult because I keep buying new books… At least I still have plenty of books to read. Happy weekend!

01.16.21 | how’s your semester going? what a productive day for me.

tip: on a weekend like this where I will usually list my things to-do and just end up accomplishing 1-2 things because I will end up slacking and procrastinating until the last minute, I actually resolved it today! I just made an 🌿 hourly schedule 🌿

this helped me focus more and stick to my sched and I was able to finish all my to-do list today and caught up with my backlogs. I don’t recommend it if you need more time in understanding a topic because what happened was the breaks I allotted were used because some topics really took time to understand. it went good though. I’m on bed now, rewarding myself with an episode or two of haikyu (that I’m rewatching) 😁

what about you? how do you deal with procrastination? (x)
