Today was a long but productive day. School started early and I had Spanisch, Law, Physiks, Math and English classes and studied until 19.30 in the library.

I noticed I hadn’t finished a topic so I still need to catch up a little but all in all I managed to finish alot.

The evening was quite relaxing I prepped breakfast and lunch and even tried a new face mask.

Things I did today:

headstart on my work during lunch

studied for Biology exam

selfcare

Late school start so I could wash my hair in the morning.

French, Math, History and English classes today. The english essay went fine, I’m hoping for a good grade so I can reach my goal of having a 1 there.

My friend and I went to this café we like which has a quiet separate area where people can study, it’s great.

Unfortunately I had to leave earlier than planned bc of a family event so I’ll hope to finish the rest tomorrow.

Things I did today:

English essay

studied Biology

spent some time with family

cleaned up my room

Only math and art classes today, we thankfully got a free afternoon.

My friends and I used this opportunity to visit the bigger library in the city to research a bit for our final thesis.

Sadly I didn’t find alot of information and some books are in spanish which is one of my second languages but still not easy for me to read fluently yet.

It was a really nice day though and I hope to read the works I took home.

Things I did today:

Math exam

Sketch for Art class

Visited library & research

we are not born to die!! what are you talking about!! do you think a book begins just to finish? do you think a song opens with a beautiful chord just for it to end? you don’t read the book to finish it, you read the book to eat up the excitement and the emotions it evokes!! to learn and to digest and to fall in love and be heartbroken!! you listen to the song to dance and dance and sing your throat raw!!! to cry and smile and swell with the harmonies!! yes, we are born with the inevitable fate of death, we are mortal after all, but that is merely the finale of the play!! the final act, the closing of the curtains - we are not born to take a bow and exit stage left!! we are born to love and be joyous and yell and move and learn and cry and feelfeelfeel!!!  we are not born to die, silly, we’re born to live!!!

Today I had a free afternoon but I sadly didn’t manage to complete everything I planned to do.

That’s not great bc I have a math exam in 2 days but yeahhhh…

Not the best mentality but I’m trying not to beat myself up over things like that.

I had German and Geography classes today, they both went well and the Geography substitute was really nice and explained everything well. Went to the library to study in the later afternoon.

Things I did today:

Worked on my sketch for Art class

Solved some math problems and studied for the exam

eight step guide on how to study (as a third year pre-med student with ADHD and a 4.0)

welcome to my step by step guide on how to study. i have a love-hate relationship with studying, but this is what works to get me going. getting started is the hardest part, i promise.

step one: prep your space. get a glass of water or coffee or energy drink and make sure you have everything you need out and ready. throw your phone across the room or just put it out of sight. you will forget that other fun things exist (like tik tok) if you cannot see it. out of sight, out of mind.

step two: sit at your desk (or table or a general designated study space with a chair). studying in bed never works like you think it will and studying on the floor (while enriching) will do nothing but hurt your back from hunching over. sitting at your desk makes you feel much more productive (most of my study sessions start by just forcing myself to sit in my chair).

step three: put some music or ambience on. if i need to use my brain more i'll opt for some fantasy-themed forest ambience or sci-fi droning sounds. your brain is tricked into thinking that you're having fun if music is on, but plot twist! you're actually being productive. music i turn to is soft piano, video game soundtracks (genshin, undertale, minecraft, stardew valley) or lofi, but your mileage may vary. DO NOT do music with words unless you want to be distracted.

step four: make a list of need-to-dos and rank them based on priority and time. start by doing an activity that will take a short amount of time. by completing a short to-do, it builds the motivation to keep going.

step five: start a study timer. i bought a physical study timer that is so satisfying to wind and set and watch the time tick by, but a desktop one works just fine. set your timer based on how much energy you have. some days i go for 60 minutes, some days i do 25, it all just depends. as a study session goes on, it's normal for your amount of energy to go down. i may do 60-45-30-20 then take a long break. know thyself and thine needs!

step six: lock in. do not think about what you are doing, simply do it. do it before your brain has the chance to convince you it doesn't like what you're doing.

step seven: take regular, controlled, and useful breaks. do not start an activity on your break that will break your flow. walk around, stretch, check your phone, refill your drink, have a snack. reward yourself! you're doing great, i promise.

step eight: long break. do something that will rest your mind. maybe watch youtube, eat a meal, play a video game, read a few chapters of a book. be proud of the work you've accomplished.

i hope this helps! happy studying!

Trying to be more productive and creative so I’m going to try to hold myself accountable/ do things I like and post some stuff here.

We currently have an economic week at my school which means I have a bit more time to go study in the library in the evening. yayy

One of my goals for this semester is starting to study earlier and I’m pretty happy with my progress bc I’ve already started learning for an exam next week which is a very big step for me bc I’m a chronic the night before procrastinator.

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.
