It’s nice to see that some ppl joined my study group on the ypt app! I will be doing some study sessions on there later on, so make sure to join and be productive with me💖
(short update on my mental health: I’m feeling a bit better now, but still not very good or in the right mood to study… But I will try my best to keep up with all the work I got ahead of me🙃)
Hey guys! ✨
Just wanted to pop in and say that I’m currently taking a mental health break from social media! Yes, I’m still available and will be answering questions and comments every few days.
The past week was really tough for me; I had to postpone my exam because of that and currently try to get back to the roots, trying to rediscover my passion for studying...
Not everything is as perfect as it seems to be in the pictures and videos I post.
Sometimes life is just rough to you and you have to give yourself some time to recover💖
Stay safe and see you all soon!
Another day, another study session!✨ D-6 until the last exam of the year!!
Todays study session went pretty well!✨
Evening study session ft. my new phone💖 It works so smoothly in comparison to my old one👀 Looking forward to make more videos like this!!♡
There are 17 days left until my Statistics exam👀
Had a really cozy start into the new month!✨🥰
Day 60/60!
Hey guys! I'm back from my exam!✨
It went pretty well and I'm really happy to have some stress free days in front of me before I need to start studying for the next exam😊💖
I will be playing on my switch, work on some writing stuff and read a new book about the human brain!
How are you all doing today?✨ Enjoy your weekend and take some time off to relax💖
Day 57/60
Hey guys!
There are 3 days left until my social psychology exam and I'm studying literally non-stop😅
I kinda got worried that I couldn't ace the exam with my current knowledge, so instead of taking everything easy, I started binge-studying the subject🙈 Yes, not a very honorable method, but at least I feel a bit better✨
Question of the day: what kind of music are you listening to while studying?🤔
Currently I'm always listening to star wars lofi hiphop to get calm and into the mood to study!✨
I hope you all are having a nice week, see you soon🥰
o paradise lost, we’re really in it now
i’m so tired of school, i’m homeschooled so it’s pretty self paced and chill for me. but all time energy lately has been into schoolwork and by 2 i’m so tired and unmotivated that i’m just craving to sleep.
maybe it seasonal depression? idk maybe you or could provide some motivation 💕💕
Dear Anon!💖
I can completely understand how you feel. These unmotivated phases are something everyone goes through, especially lately with Corona and all the lockdowns...
Studying from home is not easy and requires a lot of self-discipline and if that's not at its peak for once, that's totally fine!✨
Just keep in mind why you are studying and what your goals are. And remember: hard work always pays off❣️ Whether it gets you a good grade or just enriches your own life and attitudes!
Even in difficult times, never forget to believe in yourself! But also listen to what your body is telling you. Take it easy! Take your time and especially give yourself some breaks!💖
When I feel lost and unmotivated, I always write lists full of the things I want to do. Whether that's related to playing a game, crafting or studying.
You should write everything down to be aware of what you want to do. After that you decide which things you want to do today. There should definitely be some bigger tasks, like summarizing a chapter for school, but also some smaller tasks, like painting your fingernails!✨
Gradually, you'll come to grips with your goals and when motivation seems to wane, tackle one of the smaller tasks!
Either way, at the end of the day, you'll be proud of yourself for getting a lot of things done, and it doesn't matter if you've completely finished your list!
You should just be proud that you did something at all, that you made an effort not to be unproductive.
Be aware of yourself. Be aware that you can do everything you want to do and above all: be proud of yourself!✨💗
Day 48/60
Hello guys! I’m back from my vacation!✨🏞
And I came back to having 600 followers!😱🥰 Welcome to all the new ppl out here!
I also got tagged by @sweetstudymine to do the ✨get to know me tag✨
what is/was your favourite subject?
In high school, my favorite subjects were definitely biology and philosophy!✨ In university, my enthusiasm increases with everything that has to do with biological or neurological psychology. In my opinion, there is nothing more exciting than that!
what is your dream degree?
First, I will definitely want to complete my bachelor's degree, but I would love to do the master's and doctorate afterwards as well! My absolute dream is to work in psychological research, where the behavior and functions of the brain are studied and explored.
what is and did you get into your first choice of uni/college? If you haven't, what were your alternatives? (or if you're still in HS, what are your options?)
It's a little sad, but it ended up being the best decision I ever made! Because of Corona, I decided to go to a "distance learning university". That means I'm doing my entire bachelor's degree on my own and from home💪🏻 It's really tricky sometimes to do everything by myself, but I'm lucky that I was able to make some new friends through the internet and connectivity within the university! I can only recommend distance learning universities to others, but it takes a lot of self-discipline and strength to do it all. But it is a nice experience and I am glad that I can do it!🥰
are/were you an extracurricular student?
Not really. In high school, I took some courses that had to do with biology, but the older I got, the less time I had for it🥲
was there an essay or project you did for school that you loved to do and stuck with you?
Not really a specific essay or project, but I can definitely say that everything related to philosophy has changed me💭 In particular, my conception and understanding of things has been broadened and changed. Even today I can apply the things I learned while studying psychology. Many psychological thoughts and theories are related to philosophy, but also the other way around!
what did you do to relax from studying and school stress?
To relax I like to play Switch🥰 I'm particularly addicted to Pokémon games and Animal Crossing, as they don't require many brain cells. Other than that, I also like to read, write my own stories/fanfictions and craft. My irl friends are of course not forgotten! Once a week we meet to play DnD or just to chat.
what are your academic goals for the future?
As I wrote above, I would love to have a PhD and work in psychological research! But I would also settle for just a master's degree. Success is not everything and the most important thing in life is to be happy and healthy!✨
I’m tagging: @selfhelpforstudents @luminous-studiess @studyinu
Thanks for reading and of course you can ask me more questions in the comments!💖
Day 39/60
Guys, I'm ready!
I've done everything on my agenda and am ready to go on vacation tomorrow!💖
It still feels weird to think about driving far away after 1 1/2 years full of self isolation and lockdowns!😅
I'm looking forward to relax as much as I can before my upcoming exam! But I'm really optimistic that this exam will not be as exhausting and complicated as the others I wrote✨
Hope you have a nice week and also take some time to relax a bit🥰✨
Day 31/60 - A new month started!
Today is the 1st of October! Not only spooky season begins, but I'm also pretty excited to go on vacation in 9 days!✨ I'm really looking forward to it, because I need some time to relax before my exam💖
It's my first vacation in over 1 year bc of Covid and to stay at home and study all day exhausted me a lot...
I will try my best and accomplish my study agenda before going on vacation, so I will be able to relax!🥰✨ There are 4 1/2 chapters left to read, a few flashcards and some practice questions left to do✨ It seems to be doable, so wish me the best of luck💖
I hope you all are doing good and keep in mind that it's okay to take (mental health) breaks✨ I believe in you, you can achieve everything you want!!💖
See you soon!
Day 24/60 - Still recovering my mental health
Hey guys! I'm still not feeling well, but I still managed to record myself while making flashcards on StudySmarter✨
I'm gonna do some more flashcards, read 2 more chapters in my Social Psychology book and take the weekend off💖 I'm really looking forward to it!✨
Keep in mind to take breaks if you don't feel well! Stay safe✨🥺
Mental health recently going 📈📉📉 every few hours… Studying and keeping up with everything isn’t easy, I’m sorry for not posting anything🙈 Will come back as soon as I can!🥺💖
Day 20/60 - Hey, nice to see you again!
Hey! I'm kinda back✨
I had a lot of mental health issues recently, so I took a break from social media, tried to keep up with my study agenda and relaxed with playing games like Eastward and Minecraft💖
It helped me a lot and I finally feel good enough to post again!✨
Keep in mind, that it's ok to take breaks from social media and only do the minimum amount of studying. It's totally fine, just make sure to not get stuck in procrastination😅
Take care of yourself and your mental health!✨💕
See you soon!!
Day 13/60 - My first studygroup meeting!
I had my first study group meeting, which was pretty exciting! I'm grateful for having nice members🥰
Can't wait to see them again, but until then I have to keep up with my study plan! It's tough, but possible!✨
Try to be the best version of yourself!!💖
Day 11/60
I promise: I will never give up until I achieve my goals!💖
Day 10/60 - Slow progress is still progress!
I’ve been working on my first social psychology book for 10 days now and I finally managed to read through all chapters! It’s really hard for me to focus, stay motivated and productive atm, but I’m working on it! I’m taking breaks to play chill games like Animal Crossing or Stardew valley and do my studying in silence (which is very unusual for me😅)
I think I’m feeling a little bit burned out, but that’s ok. I will take everything a little bit slower✨
I believe in myself, I can do this!💖
Have you ever dealt with burn-out?😵💫
Day 7/60
My recent wall decoration!✨
I did some studying today, but I couldn’t concentrate very well, because I didn’t sleep well last night😴🥲
Day 6/60 - It’s Monday again!
Hey guys! I took the weekend off, went on some walks and just relaxed a bit😊
Today I updated my Notion, adding all the tasks I have to do✨🥰
I also managed to read half a chapter of my social psychology book, plan an essay that is due in a few days and write some summaries for previous chapters I have read!💖 All of it took me around 3 hours. I’m really proud of myself that I studied that much today✨🥰
How are you doing?✨
Day 2/60 - 2nd of September
Already writing some flashcards and I already made a lot of progress!🥰✨
How have you been?💖
Sunny morning study session~✨☀️
My next exam is in 2 days, I’m studying nonstop, which is really exhausting… But I got this! I will ace this exam!💗
✨Overview✨
• Bio Psychology exam: D-2
• 3rd Semester: D-37
• Social Psychology exam: D-66
• Statistics exam: D-102
My life is really busy, but I can handle this! I’m also currently trying to organize everything with NOTION✨ Hopefully it will work out💖
what app are you using to freehand write on your ipad with a stylo/pen, if you don’t mind me asking? thanks so much in advance!
Mainly using Goodnotes 5 + apple pencil first gen. for everything! 💖 I love this app because it offers a lot of options. + I think the investment of those 10 or 11$ is totally worth it✨💗 I’ve been using it for 2 years now and they still make huge updates which make it even easier to take handwritten notes!
Going through some flashcards✨📚
It’s very gloomy and rainy these days… It’s hard to keep up with my agenda, because the bad weather has a huge negative impact on my motivation😵💫 But I’m still trying my best!!✨💗
Studying in the kitchen = suddenly green/orange aesthetic🧡😂
What have you been up to?✨
