Important Academic Reminders

there is no shame in asking for help

there is no shame in having a tutor

there is no shame in not getting As

there is no shame in not knowing what you want to study

there is no shame in having a job

there is no shame in struggling in a so-called "easy subject"

there is no shame in withdrawing from a course

there is no shame in changing your major

there is no shame in not taking a full load of classes in a semester

there is no shame in realizing your school may not be for you

hope these are useful :) -love pika☁️

Tips to stop Procrastinating

1. start small

Break projects into smaller tasks. This will help make the task more manageable and less overwhelming

2. set goals

Break down the task and set specific goals. Having goals to work toward will help give a clearer path to completing a project.

3. dont overthink it

Before you start, get out all of your concerns about the task. Then, come up with a strategy to overcome each concern.

4. remove distractions

Create a space that is free from distractions like clutter, television, cell phones, and other family members or activities so you can focus on your assignments.

5. stick to a schedule

Create a schedule that includes the due dates of any upcoming assignments. Schedule a time to work on projects and set deadlines to work toward.

6. take breaks

Avoid checking in on social media or text messages. Instead, use a 5-10 minute study break to stretch or go outside for a walk before getting back to work.

7. keep the list short

Complete a task before starting a new one. This will help avoid feeling overwhelmed by working on too many tasks at once. A study schedule will help here as well, outlining exactly what you should be working on and when.

8. adjust expectations

It’s ok not to be perfect—the goal of any project is to do your best and learn from any mistakes you make so you can get a little better each time.

Could you please do a "Study like a fairy" aesthetic post? I loved your Hufflepuff and mermaid ones!

i am really glad that you like my previous posts <3

Study like a Fairy + Aesthetic

try and figure out your unique style of taking notes

draw doodles or add stickers in your notes to make them attractive

wear clothes that you feel comfortable in while studying

make sure to take some time of during the day to take care of yourself

use a color scheme while taking notes

put up nice inspirational quotes around your room to help you stay motivated

read for pleasure (it also helps increase your vocabulary)

use spaced repetition or mnemonics to learn large chunks of information

write down your notes so that they are retained for longer durations of time

join a study group and review material frequently

find out what time of day you are most productive and try to do your high priority tasks then

treat yourself with regular breaks

dont stick to one topic for too long. switch things up a bit and study a different topic and get back to the previous one later

make sure to stay hydrated while studying

if you ever feel overwhelmed take a break and do something enjoyable or take a nap and get back to work once you feel better

if you prefer studying outdoors, find a cute café or a spot your really like to sit and study

if you are prone to procrastination, try using the Pomodoro technique

don't study when you are in a bad mood. usually you will end up forgetting whatever you study at this time. so instead try to improve your mood and then sit down to study

make a schedule and try and stick to it as far as possible

don't wait for the last minute to start projects or assignments. break the project into smaller chunks and tackle it piece by piece.

So that was my take of studying like a fairy :))) If you have any more ideas do let me know or if you have any requests or questions my message box is always open :))

i hope these are useful!! :) -love pika☁️

Notion Dashboard

guys, I finally redid my notion dashboard and set it up the way i like it!! I went for a very brown/ beige aesthetic for my dashboard (i don't know if it worked but i think it looks cute)

I wanted to have something aesthetically pleasing, but also practical and easy to navigate through since i use notion for a lot of things. I made the header on Canva and got all the images from Pinterest.

I'm only posting my main dashboard for now but if y'all would like to see more I will post my sub-pages and how i use them too! I also make notion templates so let me know if y'all are interested

Anywayyyyy here it is.... let me know what you think :)

Dark Academia Study Techniques + Aesthetic

These are a few dark academia study techniques that I have come across. I actually do use many of these techniques and they are really quite helpful :)

Rewriting your notes, over and over again, not worrying about the neatness but paying close attention to each and every word

Muttering every bit you know by heart under your breath as you walk down the streets

Studying early in the morning, focusing on one sentence or chapter and pondering it through the day

Researching things that you have questions about your own, finding books on that subject and leafing through them

Reciting your notes dramatically to your household companion or your stuffed animal

Challenging yourself to think, speak, write and consume media only in your target language

Eating certain snacks with different subjects and letting the smells trigger your memories

Associating each subject to someone you know by sight only

Romanticizing bits that you have difficulty getting interested in

Chanting your notes at night on a classical tune

hope these are useful :) -love pika☁️

Could you do a "Study like a mermaid" aesthetic post? I loved your Ravenclaw one!

I'm really happy you enjoyed my previous post <3

This mermaid aesthetic is more mythological type than the classic pastel, cartoony type aesthetic because I personally feel like these kinds of mermaids would be more likely to study and enjoy studying in general (let me know what y'all think)

So here is my take on how a mermaid would study:

Study like a Mermaid + Aesthetic

use scented candles while you study

make your notes colourful, mainly using cool colours like blues and greens

Use different textures or patterns to take notes

turn your notes into a song to remember points easily

add stickers, washi tapes and other cute add-ons to your notes (mostly ocean-inspired)

don't study in your pyjamas. wear clothes that help build the mood for studying but are also comfortable at the same time

listen to lofi-music or ocean sounds while studying

have a clean study space before starting to study

keep all necessary stationery you need and water within arms reach

if you can study in nature (in the park, near a lake, by the sea etc)

take regular breaks between study sessions and take a walk to get some fresh air

talk to your pet about what you studied (or even a soft toy)

exercise regularly to stay healthy and have a fresh mind

while studying, if you are distracted, keep a blank piece of paper next to you and write down all your thoughts and get back o them after your study session

know your limits. don't overwork yourself and take a break when you know you have reached your limit

make studying an enjoyable activity that you look forward to in your day

have a study buddy you can study with and share what you learn

if you have cute ocean-themed stationery. 100% recommend to USE IT

make mind maps and flowcharts for notes

read in advance for your tests and don't wait till its too late

So this is how I think a mermaid would like to study. If you have any more ideas do let me know or if you have any requests or questions my message box is always open :))

i hope these are useful!! :) -love pika☁️

Study like a Slytherin + aesthetic

work in a controlled, distraction-free space.

set goals that may even seem too high for you.

use available resources to study

take notes in a neat, detailed form.

visualize success, never think about failure.

be proud when you do well

make studying an everyday habit

use your own notes and make your own lecture.

classical music all the way

no matter how much you hate your teacher, don’t let it show.

set self-imposed deadlines.

do homework on the day it is given.

conceptualize, understand.

don’t take in too much caffeine unless absolutely needed.

start studying for a big test more than a week before.

keep your ambition to yourself and surprise others with the results.

fearing failure is normal, turn that as your motivation instead.

get yourself something after studying. This helps you enjoy studying as you have something to look forward to

always re-check your answers.

don’t settle for less.

Gryffindor ver. Hufflepuff ver. Ravenclaw ver.

i hope these are useful!! :) -love pika☁️
