I’m updating a little earlier than usual today, but I just needed to put it out into the world that I taught a really solid lesson today! As a tutor for K-12 who didn’t have any training (other than being a K-12 student myself) and who makes their own lesson plans, I often feel really unqualified to be teaching the same material I learned myself just in the last few years. But today I knew that I taught a really good lesson, starting off with some grammar test prep and kicking off a research unit. I threw in some useful tips and tricks for standardized testing and used my own research I did last year as an example for how to stay organized. All in all, I’m very proud of myself.

25/01/21 - submitted my first essay of the exam session today! It was a bit of a struggle but it’s done now. Two more essays and two exams to go 💪 [studygram]

hello all, my name is maria!

i am a first year biomedical student in toronto, canada. i am 18 years old, love cats (especially my sweet boy), and want to become a pediatric oncologist when i grow up! my dream is to work at sickkids hospital, so i’m definitely manifesting that.

i began my journey w studyblogs on tumblr back in highschool, however i finally mustered the courage to create my own. it’s been an incredibly inspiring resource of motivation, revolutionizing my studying and wanting to hold myself publicly accountable.

i want to start the #100daysofproductivity! so here we go :)

monday, january 25th 2021 | day 1 of the #100daysofproductivity challenge

- written out 3 lectures worth of bio + textbook notes

- rewatched + redid my chem lecture notes

- chem homework for both lectures

- chem assignment

here’s my set up!

monday, january 25 | day 16/100 of productivity

sorry for the late post, i had a hectic morning :( but please appreciate my cute lil octopus who’s REVERSIBLE - he becomes purple and angry instead of blue and happy LOL 

going home to see my parents has been very lovely <3 the only problem is i don’t want to study b/c i just want to hang out with them LOL not alot of work has been done, but i have kept up my anki streak over the weekend! small wins :-)

goals: 
-savour every second i spend w/ my fam
-figure out a study schedule for my first midterm of the semester 🙃
-use self-care (ex. working out, journalling) as a tool for your mental health, not something you have to check off a list 

Another day back on campus for classes! I never loved the snow before coming here, or even really saw a ton of beauty in it. Now, looking at these photos, this view warms my heart. Even though the green in the spring and the summer is gorgeous, this place always feels most at home during the winter!

Monday morning coffee and oats 😌 it’s supposed to snow later and I’m not sure how to feel. On one hand it’s super cold and it sucks to drive in, but on the other hand it’s so pretty and quiet.

1/100 days of productivity / 1.25.21

first day of the semester ! this semester i’m taking intro to plant science, intro to soil science, food/society/environment, assertiveness training, and an anthropology class about magic/witchcraft/rituals/myths/religion. today i did lots of assignments based around introducing myself to my online classmates. i also wrote down all the learning objectives for my classes. i thought i’d show you my supplies ! i use these notebooks from diaso, ash colored highlighters (also from diaso), micron 08 for titles, and 0.35mm gel pens for all my note taking.

mon, 2501

25 days late, it’s very obvious how productive i’ve been since the new year. but my final exams are near, and ya boy’s gotta cram.

24.01.2021, 13/100 days of productivity

I once again fell asleep before I could post. Sad. I’ve been re-writing a bunch of MATLAB code in Python and it doesn’t work and it’s stressing me out. Woohoo.
