I had bought this book a while back, but never got around to reading it. I knew it would come in handy my first year post gradschool and I’m hands down so thankful I bought this book when I did! The motherhood section will be useful in the future, for sure.

I went to my fave Christmas market yesterday and I just want to go back 😂 it was such a lovely day being able to get presents and the things I’d wanted to get myself for ages but stopped myself for a solid 2 months so I could enjoy this shopping trip! I went to muji and got some stationery of course so stay tuned for a haul post soon!

Everyone has those times where they mean to study for a test and it just doesn’t happen. Either because of mental illness or because you had another really big test to study for or because you just procrastinated your way into a sticky situation. Sometimes you only have one or two nights to study. Here’s how to make the most of it.
I. Organize first, study second
The best thing you can do to make the most of your time is to organize. Organize the time you have left. Plan when you will study each thing you need to know. Organize the information into an outline if you can. This all makes it seem more attainable.
II. Start broad and work to the finer details last
Get the basic ideas of the topics before you do anything else. This will help you to at least be able to guess on most questions. It’s easy to stress out and jump straight into the finer details but without a firm basis you won’t remember any of them. 
III. Lists of information are usually very important
If you’re going through notes or powerpoints or your textbook and you come across a list of information, do your best to learn it. Teachers and professors love to test students on lists and usually the stuff in the list is pretty important to the topic overall. 
IV. Avoid testing yourself
Testing yourself at this point in the game will only lead to more stress. Focus on learning the information rather than trying to determine how bad you might do on the test. The more you focus on possibly failing, the more likely it becomes that you actually will. 
V. YouTube
As most people know, YouTube is the ultimate resource for last minute studying! If you can’t find a Crash Course playlist on your topic and there’s no Khan Academy stuff about it, just do a few broad searches! You might find some really helpful stuff that can give you a good basis or even some necessary details!
VI. Mind Maps
Mind maps are so great for this exact situation! They help you organize information in a way your brain is easily able to recall. Obviously this is really helpful if you’re about to take a test. You can use them for brain dumps or to organize everything you need to know. You can find my post about mind maps here!
VII. “Cheat sheets”
Cheat sheets are also perfect for this situation! Now, I put this in quotes because this is not suggesting that you write down all of the information and sneak it into the exam with you. Rather, use this as another way to dump and organize the information. Once you’re done you have a review sheet to bring with you and you’ve reviewed the info in the process of making it!
VIII. Finally, try not to make this a habit
Obviously, we’re all going to have trouble keeping up with life at times and we’re all going to need to prepare for tests in a short amount of time at times. But, do your very best to find time to study before the night before. Even if it’s only 5 minutes a day, it can make a difference.
Hope this was helpful!

8.6.2017 11:30 AM: Bujo from last + this week, as usual! I am very happy with the next few spreads. As for my habits, I could be better about my college work, but I’m enjoying the last few days of summer, sigh. I start school in 4 days! Also, I’m still working on the covers for my subject binders, so you guys have any more aesthetic doodle ideas for Biology, English, Spanish, or History, please send them into my ask box!

hi everyone! some people are starting school soon, meanwhile, others have already started. i’ve noticed a lot of people who are freshmen, or upcoming freshmen, and i’d like to give my own advice from personal experience! i seriously wished i followed some of these tips.
1. whether or not your current friends will be at your high school, this is a great time to make new friends. you may not think so right now, but you might become really close to them in the future.
2. just a psa, you might lose some friends in high school. that is fine! the reasons can range from unnecessary drama to just having no classes together. you will find better friends, i promise.
3. people say that high school isn’t what you see in movies, but cliques are still very real. you will probably have your own clique-like group at some point, but do be open to people. don’t just focus on your friends when that new kid could use new friends too.
4. you might have a teacher that will ruin your grades/gpa. i genuinely mean that you might end up with a teacher that ruins your 4.0 gpa or your goal for straight a’s, no matter how much effort you put into the class. do not underestimate yourself, learn what you can yourself and move on. you will do better, trust me, those teachers exist for a reason other than to make you suffer, i swear.
5. sign up for electives, clubs, sports, etc. that you want to try out. you will find people with similarities to you, and you will need that time to have fun and not study relentlessly.
6. while it doesn’t hurt to learn a language, instead of taking a foreign language class for colleges, take it and apply what you learn. foreign languages are really helpful and fun too, especially if you get to study abroad or go travel to foreign countries!
7. remember that you can talk to your guidance counselor at school if you have any problems. they want you to have a good school year too. teachers, parents, and even close friends can be good people to go to.
8. please, don’t take an ap class (or any class with college credit) if you aren’t willing to work hard in those classes and actually study. i see freshmen do this all the time, and it only wastes your time. it might be better to delay those classes for sophomore year or later.
9. the only reason why upperclassmen seem like they dislike freshmen is that some freshmen are too immature (and frankly, some of them can truly be a nuisance). otherwise, most of them will not bite, so don’t worry!
10. it is important that you do well in your freshman year, so try not to slack off. those grades are your foundation to your gpa!
11. if you do slack off freshman year, it’s okay, colleges like to see students who improve their grades. start sophomore year off with awesome grades. ☆
12. don’t stress so much over college, because you have time to slowly prepare for it! unlike the seniors who are in their second semester, you can plan on what to do to help you prepare for college.
13. don’t have time for something? make time, or find time. you have “time”, you just prioritize certain things over others, that’s all. time management is very important in high school.
14. you might want to improve those bad habits (ahem, procrastination) now. it will help you when you have three tests on the same day, and nobody wants to finish an essay at one in the morning the night before it’s due.
15. don’t take a class just because your friend will take it, you will probably regret it. i did this and i got my schedule changed by the school, so i had a class with none of my friends. it was tedious.
16. this is practically the opposite of #8, but don’t refuse to take a college level class because you think you will fail. (unless you’re contemplating ap calculus when you struggle to graph algebraic functions, then, you know, maybe not). it’s good to challenge yourself sometimes.
17. don’t feel pressured to do something just because it’s mainstream, or that certain people do it. try to learn to stop caring about what people think of you, or at least ignore any negative prejudice around you. their opinions are irrelevant.
18. learn to find your identity, it will take a while. that’s fine, but have fun, make new friends, do fun activities, work hard, and most importantly, be healthy and happy!!
19. do not put school over health. i beg of you, do not pull all nighters either. your physical and mental health is the most important.
20. if you get sick, contact your friends to know what you missed. or have them get your work and give it to you. or even better, email your teachers. i hate doing work when i’m sick, however, it might be better than making up your work while working on your current work after you go back to school.
21. i know people say “don’t stress” which is much harder said than done. you will probably have days when you procrastinate on so many assignments, or when you didn’t do an assignment and you need to finish it as soon as possible. break it down to little pieces and work on it. take breaks. if you are truly stressed, leave your work alone and relax because that is the most important.
22. when you are having a conversation with someone, listen to them rather than wait to reply to them. it’s amazing how many people don’t do this with their own friends. this isn’t exactly related to school, but people do this with their own teachers too, so grasp the directions teachers give you.
23. do the extra credit, especially if it’s small. it might help you from getting an 89.4% in the class.
24. i won’t elaborate on this, but it does help to take certain necessities to school. gum, extra pencils/pens, makeup, brush, etc.
25. unless it is required, don’t take a class just because you want to look good for college. getting into one can be very competitive, and sometimes taking a class you despise might put very little effort into getting into college.
26. learn what you study and apply it, and review it in the future. don’t learn to study, study to learn. if you have never needed to study, start now. even if you still don’t need it. because at some point you will, and if you develop good habits now, you will thank yourself.
27. figure out what kind of learner you are. it helps if you get a teacher that confuses you. do you learn better from pictures? audio? textbooks? figure that out now, if you haven’t. study smarter, not harder!
28. small advice: don’t talk in class and don’t block the hallways. sincerely, someone who walks all over the school five days a week while focusing in seven classes.
29. take advantage of what can help you study better! apps/programs, ambient music, reward systems, pomodoro, etc. figure out what works for you so you can study efficiently.
30. most importantly, work hard and study, but not too hard to the point where your health and mind suffers. good luck to you all.  ♡
