-Organ Donor-
If I could have, I would have given you my lungs
So that you could laugh uncontrollably
At the tiny, transient moments in your existence 
That brought you pure exultation 
If I could have, I would have given you my brain 
So that you could think happy, happy thoughts
And contemplate the wonders 
That you are interminably grateful for
If I could have, I would have given you my heart
So that you could love boundlessly, infinitely 
And not merely those closest to you
But also, yourself, for you deserved self-love 
If I could have, I would have given you my stomach
So that you could feast incessantly
On your most favourite delectable sweets
And find joy and contentment 
In all of your delicious comfort foods
Like marshmallows heated by your fireplace
And cups of cocoa on a crisp autumn evening
If I could have, I would have given you my life 
For yours was stolen far too soon 
And now you are breathless, six feet under 
With once healthy organs 
That will never work again.

tiktok wastes so much time aka why i deleted it.
this all started a few days ago when i happened to look through my screen time on my phone. i saw that i spent an average of 3 hours everyday on tiktok. one of those days i spent 6 HOURS on tiktok. those hours are hours i will never get back. i could have studied, or worked out, or read a book, or spent time with my family. or at least anything other than tiktok. i felt completely disgusted.
so, i decided to make a change. i got my dad to set a screentime passcode on my phone. i set a 20 minute limit to tiktok everyday. i assumed that i would use up that 20 minutes completely. but to my surprise, on my first day, i ended up only using it for 7 seconds. i didn't get an urge to look at it at all. and today, i've completely deleted the app.
i know that social media is a big distraction and i know that we all have goals that we want to achieve and don't get me wrong, social media can be a great thing, but its necessary to focus on what's most important -- studying.
it might be daunting to delete the app at first, so here are some steps that you can take.
set a limit and have someone hold you accountable
this is basically what i did. before that, i set myself a limit but i found myself just pressing the ignore button every time. so, i got my dad to set a code so i couldn't bypass it at all. this way, you can limit yourself to only using it for a certain period of time.
sign out of your accounts
this is actually something i saw in a thomas frank video, but its just signing out of your account. drafts are still saved in tiktok even if you sign out btw. and if you need to use it, you'll think twice since you have to sign in again. its just an extra barrier between you and the app.
replace the app with something else.
whenever you get the urge to use tiktok or whatever other social media app, place it next to another app that actually increases your learning/productivity. for example, duolingo, quizlet, clozemaster, or something else that you consider to be less time wasting.
hope these tips are actually somewhat useful and remember summer is coming

how to do well in classes you don’t like ᕙ(`▿´)ᕗ
We all have classes that we don’t like, and usually we don’t do the best in them. Here are some ways I combatted that to make sure I did well.
Read the syllabus or marking scheme: imo, this is the best way to get acquainted with what you have to do for the class overall. It's easier knowing how much you have to do to get a certain grade. Finding out the criteria for something makes it easier to handle those tasks especially for things you don’t like. Systemically handling such tasks makes sure that you don’t stress for that paper or project in the longer run.
Try to get interested or find something connected that you like to get more immersed in: I’ve said this before and I’ll say this again. Studying is boring but learning is fun. I had to take a required art class last year which really annoyed me, and the teacher wasn’t the best. But this was overruled over the fact that I really loved art and history. The world is full of interesting things; you can definitely find something you like in any subject you are learning, even math! This method serves as a motivator; for example, if you really like learning about black holes, studying for relativity in your physics class would help you understand more about them.
Always revise over what you are doing wrong: Another way to understand how to get the best grade in a class you don’t like is to look at how well you do on tests and grades. Most people don’t do well in these classes. You can look over what you have done wrong, and go back and see what the teacher is looking for in classes. Don’t overthink about how bad you did; instead, find what your teacher was looking for in your answer. This way, you know exactly how to answer next time. It’s another way to find out the criteria for how much effort you need to put in.
Ask for help: Another great way to do the best is ask help from someone you know is well-versed in a specific subject. If you really don’t understand what is going on in class, asking for help eases that stress. You’ll be surprised as to how well this method works.
Celebrate your successes: This is a great motivator. Finished that long paper? Take a break, watch a movie, have some fun. You’ve done a lot for something that has been causing you stress. You deserve it.
Consider dropping: If you really are feeling stressed, look for other options. Sometimes a class feeling like a burden has an immense impact on your grades. Think about how much this class is worth. Talk to your counselor. Are there other options? Other classes? Do you need to take this? It’s okay to drop something you don’t like if its really impacting your grades and your health.
I wish you guys all the best. It is really a big feat to do well in a class that you don’t like. Have fun and don’t take to much stress. Good luck!

Summer Studying Tips
As it around the time schools get out for summer, I wanted to share some tips I’ve learned over my many years of doing summer math homework and writing essays for various purposes. I’ve done this enough to know that there are really fucking painful ways to do it and ways that don’t suck nearly as much. Lets get cracklakin!
Timing:
- Ideally you should start early. This post is happening at the start of summer because you should start your studying at the beginning of summer. I like to organize my workload in a bell curve for maximum rest and least amount of cramming at the end. This means that you are starting the summer with a smallish amount of work (to rest and do fun things to reset from the schoolyear), and doing more and more every day as the summer progresses (helps stave off boredom and gets things done), and then start doing less to re-rest yourself so you can be fresh and ready for the next year. All of this while still being finished with no need to cram a bunch of work in at the end of the summer.
- While this is a different aspect of “timing” it is, in my opinion, more important.  Have a set time (or many set times you rotate between) to do your summer work. Make sure this time is not when other people are going to be inviting you to things or when you can hear or see people outside doing fun things. For me, this means at four or five in the morning. I wake up and get as much done as I can before six, then have the rest of the day to relax without worrying about  having to do anything. This method was practically beaten into me, so I kinda hate it, but I can tell my father to go fuck himself and still use tools he forced upon me. I know many people who only work at noon because they like sitting outside in the morning sun and they hang out with friends in the evening. Overall for this one, just make sure that the time you pick isn’t a time where you typically do something because the worst feeling in the world is fomo while studying- it kills nay and all motivation.
Location:
I feel like every study tips post known to man says something or rather about how important location is- and it is super important! Like super super important! but no-one talks about why it is so important. And that good locations for studying depend on who you are and how you do work. I personally struggle to work in cafes because I can hear people talking and I’m nosey as hell. I have friends who can’t work in libraries because the quiet + book noises freaks her out. I can’t work in my kitchen because its nearly impossible for me to focus there. the main things I think about before I try working in a new space are 
1) how loud will it be
2) what kind of noise will it be
3)have I spent time there before doing something else (that my mind will want to do more than study)
4) is it somewhere I have the space to study + internet
5) will I run into someone I know
6) can I be there a decently long amount of time without paying/not paying very much?
7) what is the temperature like
8) what is the likelihood of a kids club showing up
obviously these criteria are different for each person, but they might be a good jumping off place- because it is summer and most kids are getting out of school, avoiding places that will be overrun with them is probably a good idea. In addition, make sure to settle down in a place that is a comfortable temperature and a place where the temp wont fluctuate too much.
Motivation:
I think overall this is the most important thing to keep in mind. It doesn't matter how well you plan out when and where you will be doing your work, it is hell to do if you don’t want to do it. 
I’m not going to tell you to love your subject, but if it is something that you don't like, that feels pointless, and you think it has absolutely no impact on your future, it’s going to be a nightmare to get done. I have no tips for you if you are in this situation.
If you don’t want to do it because it is annoying, but it’s a necessary class that you need to take, that works great! put on some fun music and force yourself to do it. It will suck but if it is part of your major or in any way connected to something you like or are passionate about, follow those connections. For example, I was in this awful writing class last semester. The teacher was bad and there was nothing really to be learned. it was a class i had to take solely for the credits. I decided that I was going to be obnoxious and write every damn essay about corsetry and the patriarchy. I swear to got I have 80 pages of writing about the damn subject. I should be publishing a book at this point. (I was one of my favorite classes that semester bc I had so much fun with the topic)
If you don’t want to do it because it’s hard, buckle up and open khan academy and YouTube. nearly every subject known to man is covered in some level on those two sites, and if that fails, find an alternate textbook to the one you have and see if having two perspectives makes it make sense. 
If it’s something you want to do but just cant force yourself to do and you’ve been scrolling for hours, go brush your teeth, change clothes or take a shower and start trying to do your work somewhere new.
I hope one of these helped, and if you have more ideas/tips pls let me know bc I’m writing this to procrastinate on my own summer work.

Hello my fellow students! I am finally back from a brief hiatus. Today was the first day of classes and it went pretty good especially considering I only had one class lol. ;) I've been trying to read more this year and my newest venture is Jane Austen's Emma. Tied together with a rainy day and iced coffee I spent a lovely couple of hours annotating outside of the campus library. I hope everyone's semester has started off well.
Until next time my fellow academics.
Fall 2022 Courses:
Programing With C
Structured System Analysis and Design
Databases
Financial Accounting

tips for acing chem ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔっ
(disclaimer: this worked for me. It may not work for you, and that’s okay! Keep trying, you can do it!)
Continuous exposure to chemistry: One of the biggest things that helped me in chemistry was the continuous exposure I had beforehand. I had plenty of books that I read about chemistry, watched documentaries, had an interactive book about all the elements, e.t.c. Continuous exposure allows you to retain a lot more information beforehand, and it is different from studying. Studying is BORING, continuous exposure and learning IS NOT. Allow yourself to have fun while learning chem!
Watch videos about things you don’t understand and apply them yourself: The most challenging thing in chemistry was probably equations. You should probably watch videos to learn this. There are tons of videos out on YouTube, Khan Academy and more. Not only should you watch these videos but try to follow along and apply them into questions. If, like Khan Academy, there are ways you can do a little quiz or test yourself, be sure to do that! It helps a lot.
Ask for help from peers: This, 100%, is a great way to learn. If I was feeling sluggish or tired, I would ask for help from peers, and write down what they said. I would also take pictures of their notes and learn from that as well, later on. It helps a lot to learn from someone just like you, so you can understand better.
Active studying: I think this is a very common tip, but it is so important!! You may have a textbook or something to follow on in classes, so here’s what to do: read the textbook chapters and summarize them in your own way. It helps so much. Writing about each section or chapter allows you to take that information, and write it in a different way while still having the most important parts. DO NOT highlight or read. That is passive studying, and trust me, it does not help. Write down, summarize, do a mind map but do NOT highlight or read. It’s okay to do that for help but it really isn’t the best way to handle a concept and info-heavy class like chemistry.
Interactive, do-it-yourself studying: I heard a lot of classes just have a teacher who drones on and on and most students just have to write the stuff down, a test about every 2 weeks and move on. That is a terrible way to learn. If you are not doing well on tests or anything, this is probably why. This is a chance to use other resources for interactive learning, like videos. Something I used to do was watch experiments on YouTube, which helped me a LOT to learn about chemistry, chemical experiments and more. If you have online resources which help in interactive learning, go ahead and do that. I would not pay attention in my physics class because this is what the class was like, but I would go back home and write everything I remembered, and learn from the web.
Revision tips: I think a great way to learn is to start from a blank page. Use that blank page to start writing everything you know about a topic, formulas, diagrams, e.t.c. Why is this such an effective studying style? Because in a test, you have a blank page. You don't have mind maps, your pretty studying notes or anything else. This helps you in tests so much because then you are skilled in pouring all that information onto the blank test page. After you finish, go ahead and look back on your notes: What are you missing? What doesn’t make sense? Now you can focus on what you don’t know, are confused about, and start honing on those spots.
Learn from tests: As soon as you get your test back, let's say you get a C. Instead of staring in shock, LOOK at the test. What did the teacher mark? What notes did they write? You can write short notes on a sticky note, and problems that you didn’t understand. Then, go back to your notes and figure out why you got that question wrong. Is it because you didn’t focus on this topic much? Silly mistake? Go ahead and write the answer and try the question again on a separate piece of paper. After that, go back and strengthen those spots so you don’t make that mistake again.
If you have other problems, like not being able to study for chem long, mind being somewhere far away, chemistry is boring.. Those are not chemistry problems, those are probably study problems. There are many tips out there on the web made by awesome, amazing people that can help you better. If you are truly struggling, maybe it's best to stop and think about the course as a whole. Ask for help. And remember, these tips helped me, but they may not work for you. And that is absolutely okay. Your worth is not determined by your grades.
