Little things to look forward to this Autumn

Reading while cuddled up in soft blankets

Becoming addicted to tea again (I know I'm not the only one…)

Cute layered outfits with cosy knit sweaters and big scarfs

Foggy and gloomy mornings <3

Studying while listening to classical music

Switching from yoghurt bowl to oatmeal for breakfast

Collecting pretty dead leaves and putting them in your diary as a little memory

Adding cinnamon to your coffee again and making hot chocolate

Baking cinnamon rolls with friends (or at least trying to...lol)

Seeing the first leaves change colour

Buying cute stationery for the new semester

Maroon nails and lips (the girls that get it, get it.)

Reading at night, all cuddled up while it's raining outside

Cinnamon or vanilla-scented candles

Spending hours at cosy bookstores and reading poetry

Soup season. SOUP SEASON.

opening the windows in the morning and letting the cool autumn air inside

Rewatching Gilmore Girls and dressing like Rory (same thing every year, let's be real here…)

Being a cosy girl doing cosy things <3

Let me know what you're looking forward to the most; autumn is such a beautiful season... lots of cosy content planned!! ;)

🎀 Overcoming Gym Anxiety 🎀

I got asked about this through my inbox by @sxfiaaa so I figured I'd make a post about it and hopefully help a lot of people with something I too used to struggle with!

🩷 Wear Comfortable Clothing

We've all seen the beautifully dressed people on Tiktok, Pinterest, etc in their matching sets and cutr gym clothes. If that is what you're comfortable wearing to the gym, do it! Wear it, and be confident in it! If you're more of a loose clothes/sweatpants/baggy shirts or hoodie type of person, do that! Wear whatever you feel comfortable (and cute) in, because the better you feel going into a workout, the more you'll be able to focus on your workout!

🩷 Know What You're Doing When You're There

This just means go in with a plan! You don't need to know how to use every single machine or do every single exercise known to mankind. Scroll tiktok or pinterest for some workout videos for inspo (please make sure the video you get inspo from shows proper form!!! Proper form is so important for being safe!!)

If you know you can go certain days of the week, make a workout split to follow that! EX 3 day split: Monday - Leg Day, Wednesday - Upper Body, Friday - Full Body

OR, if you just want to go do cardio, then plan for that! I didn't know how to use a treadmill, but I went to the gym at my university and stood on the treadmill til I figured it out!

🩷 Remember This

No one is going to look at you and judge you or think mean things about you. Everyone is at the gym for the purpose of bettering themselves and their health. If you find people giving you occasional glances, maybe it's because they don't recognize you from the gym (or they do recognize you from somewhere else), maybe their admiring your outfit/physique, maybe their avid gym goers who are watching your form and technique, or maybe their just zoned out and you happen to be in the line of sight.

When I'm at the gym, I look around between sets and take note on other people's form to see if maybe I should tweak the way I do a certain exercise, or I'm admiring another girls outfit or physique because there are a lot of beautiful women at the gym. Sometimes, I'm thinking "dang, they're lifting so heavy, how cool!" or "wow, their form is amazing, they really know what they're doing." I've never thought bad abut someone at the gym because why would I?

🩷 Don't Be Scared To Ask For Help

if there an exercise you really want to do but don't know how and videos aren't helping, ask someone around you who isn't in the middle of an exercise and looks like they may know. The guy at the gym doing upper body who has good biceps may be the right guy to ask about upper body exercises. The girl doing impeccable Bulgarian Split Squats might be the right person to ask for help with those types of movements. Just make sure they aren't in the middle of an exercise, because that can cause some unwanted issues, especially if they're mid-rep, that can turn into a safety issue.

People love to help people, especially at the gym. If you politely ask for help from someone, they may take it as a compliment that you think they look like a person who is knowledgeable on working out. I'd definitely be so flattered if someone asked me for help or advice at the gym!

🩷 Random Advice:

remember your why! no matter how anxious you are, remember why you're going! what are your goals, what do you hope to achieve, how proud will you feel after?

start small if you have to! if it's really anxiety inducing to start working out, make it your first goal to at least step into the gym. then 2nd goal, walk around the gym to get a feel for it. 3rd goal, maybe 5-10 minutes on a treadmill, and then keep building momentum each day.

be careful with the hours you go! there is such a thing as peak gym hours. It varies by place, but a lot of gyms are busy between 2pm and 6pm I've seen. I personally love going to the gym super early morning, it's a little less busy and I'm a morning person so it works out for me! If you can only go during peak hours, bring a friend or keep your headphones on and do your thing!

Bring a friend! If you're really anxious about going alone, bring a friend with similar goals! Sometimes it can be a lot nicer to learn something new with a friend then try and learn it on your own! Plus, it's like extra motivation and accountability!

Have a motivating pre workout routine. Play some music while getting ready, prep your bags, prep your playlist, get your workout itself figured out, and just keep yourself excited to go! I love blasting high-energy music that makes me feel like a baddie on my way to the gym.

I hope this was helpful!! My thoughts were everywhere but I tried to convey them as best as possible! I'm happy to answer any questions or offer more tips and advice, don't feel scared to ask! <3

"Objectively, I'd say I'm very smart. Although it has nothing to do with my ass."

"well, i'm beautiful and very intelligent."

"i am not a gambler. i'm a scientist."

"you're brilliant." "of course i am! why is everyone always surprised by that?"

People who think arc 2 of The Dragon Prince and the Percy Jackson series are objectively bad series need to get off their high horses and be exposed to actual horribly written and executed shows so they can be knocked down a few pegs

#like watch a few recent episodes of miraculous ladybug and you’ll be running screaming back #cannot WAIT until these college-age bloggers grow up and get real problems #then they’ll learn to just enjoy watching stuff again #the dragon prince #percy jackon and the olympians

Updated Workouts 🎀

I have been out of the gym for so long. My schedule last semester did not allow it, but when I leave to Colorado in June, I'll be staying somewhere that has its own little gym, and next semester I'll have more access to the university gym as well. I've been doing at home workouts lately! Here's how I structure my workouts throughout the week, and some extra info about my current fitness!

🩷 Monday

Pilates Legs Youtube Workout(s)

🩷 Tuesday

Pilates Abs YouTube Workout(s)

🩷 Wednesday

Morning Yoga YouTube Workout

Pilates Legs/Pilates Glutes YouTube Workout

🩷 Thursday

Full Body Pilates YouTube Workout

🩷 Friday

Full Body Pilates YouTube Workout

🩷 Saturday

Morning Pilates YouTube Workout OR

Morning Yoga YouTube Workout

🩷 Sunday

Wake Up Yoga YouTube Workout

Yoga For Flexibility Workout

So, as you can see, I currently follow YouTube pilates workouts. I will make a list of my favorite workout youtbers on my main blog soon! I prefer low impact workouts at the moment but will switch it up a bit once I am in Colorado.

💕 Some extra stuff for my fitness:

I try to walk 5k to 10k steps a day, whether that be going outside or doing a walking workout in my bedroom

I do all of my workouts in the morning almost right after i get up in the morning. It eliminates obstacles and helps me do something active during the day

I am going to add more stretching into my routine, especially for my legs. I have pretty stiff muscles, and as someone who'd love to be able to do the spilts, I need to start stretching.

I have a foam roller, but it isn't one of the ones with the bumps on it that really helps the muscles, and I'm going to buy one as soon as possible.

I also am going to start using my massage gun on my legs because I've been so sore and again, stiff, and I think it'll be so useful to just use it on my legs at night. It might even help me sleep better.

Sleep!! I have been sleeping 6 to 8 hours a night consistently, and it's so nice. I feel like I can function so much better, and on the days I get closer to 7 hours of sleep, I feel so good when I wake up and can really get to my morning workouts.

I've switched up my diet a bit and eat healthier (in a sustainable way), and it's also helped me with my fitness too! it really makes a difference with what you put in your body! Food is fuel and food is great!

Always open to fitness and health related questions! Please don't forget I am 3 years into my nutrition and dietetics degree, as well as minoring in psyc and exercise science (also have a 2nd major in finance, but that's irrelevant to health). I also research health and fitness topics for fun. I'm not saying I'm the most credible whatsoever, but I do have some idea of what I'm talking about and am always open to questions or even advice you could give me!

10 Reasons Why Studying is Hard

1 . You don’t know WHY

You don’t know why you have to study. You don’t know your true purpose.

Let me inform you: You have to study because this is the stage in life where you create a foundation of all the basic knowledge you need and learn all sorts of things.

In the next stage, you get to choose what career path you want to take. That is why you should think about your “WHY”.

I am studying because I want to study every day and be prepared for my exams.

2 . You don’t know HOW to study

If you are like my brother, then you don’t know how to study.

Somehow, when we join high school, nobody really teaches us how to study.

Studying involves using different tactics to understand and remember things for the future, or for exams.

You need to learn to memorize.

This is how I memorize things for my exams:

I condense my notes into a few tiny words (summarizing)

I memorize these little words by:

Writing them over and over again

Closing my eyes and remembering them

Testing myself by writing the words again

3 . You are not studying at the right time

Are you a morning person or a night person?

Do you feel energized at 10 am or 10 pm?

These are questions you need to ask yourself to learn why studying is hard for you.

You need the answers to these questions in order to actually study.

4 . You don’t study every day

Alright, you don’t have to study every day.

But that doesn’t mean you only study at 1 am the night before the exam!

That is not smart at all. How are you supposed to teach yourself 3 months-worth of work in a few caffeine-spurred hours?

Stop making studying hard! Just study a little every day.

5 . You don’t have motivation to study

You can’t study at all because you don’t motivate yourself to study.

That is sometimes an excuse because here is the secret: Action comes before motivation, not the other way round.

Stop waiting for the right moment to come down from the sky like clouds parting and the sun shining down on you.

Just open your book right now and read it.

6 . You have some bad habits

If you can’t study at all, maybe you need to study your own habits.

Get a notebook and begin to track every single thing you do in a day. I would advise tracking habits after every hour.

Then you will begin to notice that you are doing some bad habits that make studying hard for you.

7 . You can’t focus on studying

Studying is hard for you and you can’t study at all because you can’t focus on studying.

My advice for you is to sit down and ask yourself why you can’t focus on studying and find a solution to that.

8 . You don’t have fun while studying

Studying to you is probably boring work!

You need to make studying appealing and inviting so you will feel motivated to study.

9 . You don’t know any study hacks

Everyone has their own study hacks.

You probably don’t. That is why studying is hard for you.

You need come up with a personal game plan for how you plan to get good grades on your next test.

10 . You are just plain lazy

Maybe you are just lazy. Everyone gets lazy once in a while. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t get off your butt right now and start studying.

Do the least you can possibly do. Open your book and plan to learn just one thing today.

Remember only you can go deep inside and find out why you can’t study or why you never feel like studying. Ask yourself these questions.

That is how you will begin to create a good mindset that will help you to study.

tuesday, may 28, 2024 | day 1/100 | ♡.°୭̥ ୨୧

intro:

✿ today, I've decided to take on the 100-day productivity challenge. What I want to achieve from this challenge is to gain habits and learn more about myself.

✿ my main goals are losing weight, growing spiritually, my academics, work, and focusing on my mental health.

✿ I’m going to start/continue with habits like 30 minutes of movement, 10 minutes of journaling, and starting my day with God, and I'll continue from there. These are today's stats.

achievements:

✿ french duolingo

✿ swept like the whole house, but after that, I spent so much time on social media

✿ life revision (reset my notion homepage, organized my travel planner, and revised my finance page and wishlist) - did this yesterday, though

habit tracking:

morning stretch study time daily physical activity -just the walk

self-care task

practice a hobby read bible daily worship drink water 1L/3L 30 mins of movement - 30 min walk

reflection:

✿ I'm getting a little lost with my life currently I can't really tell what I'm working towards I mean I have all these goals but at the end of if all if I achieve them will I be happy or content will I want more, will I just continue searching for something quell the hunger for peace like should I just pause or continue idk which will make me feel better

notes:

✿ day one of cleaning, tomorrow I have to massacre that toilet - in like i'm gonna make it sparking way

✿ a lot of my downtime today was spent watching tiktok and ig Reels, and doing that always makes me feel down - also, I need a good journal

Let's talk about friendships.

Company matters. If your friends are out smoking during work, bunking classes and partying, you will either

a) break under peer pressure and follow them

b) be miserable if that isn't the lifestyle you want

I want to say I've never been in that situation, but I was. This is why I can empathize with you, and tell you that you need to leave friendships like these ASAP.

My "friends" did not respect me. Because I let them. They would talk over me, make plans without me, leave me behind at gatherings, had absolutely NO boundaries. It took me a painful experience to wake the fuck up and leave them.

In my room, I cried. I screamed. I raged about how unfair all of this was. But the issue wasn't them it was me. I was the one who didn't set the boundaries. I was the one who let them disrespect me over and over. The moment you do not stand up for yourself, it's over. Its hunting season, and people will tear you to shreds.

It took me a while to heal, but when I did end up making new, better friends, I realised the vast difference between my friend groups. When I was with my old friends, I was constantly stressed, I had incomplete assignments, I would go out all the time, and I'll be honest I was really bitchy. With my new friends, my god how things changed. New study habits, healthier choices, laughter, love.

I didn't realise how long I hadn't been myself. The people who you surround yourself with have a huge effect on you and your life. And trust me when I say if you feel the need to hide parts of yourself and fake shit to be around them, you will NEVER be happy around them. True friendship flourishes around authenticity and confidence.

Company matters. Know who your real friends are.

can you give me tips how to mentally prepare yourself for school, i always get anxious when it comes to school :(

Hey Love, I hope you're doing alright; I know how horrible going back to school can feel. Before I switched to online school, I would always dread the end of summer, but here are a few things that might help you get through it. <3

Remember, everything is temporary. As dumb as this may sound, it's the truth. Before you know it, it will all be in the past, and you'll just look back at it as a slightly uncomfortable memory.

Establish little rituals before school. Do your make-up in the morning, have tea, do some reading on the bus, text your friends, and write down some affirmations. Little things that take the focus off the whole school thing and make the morning a bit nicer, you know? :)

Pick up a journal, not in a cute and aesthetic way but rather in a messy and freeing way. Write down all of your thoughts and worries. Getting things out of my head always helps me calm down :)

Be prepared for class. If you had any homework over the summer break, make sure to finish everything, do some extra reading and so on; being prepared will at least make the whole class thing feel less scary…

Plan a cute outfit. Wear something that makes you feel beautiful. <3

Romanticise, Romanticise, Romanticise. Make a vision board, buy some cute stationery, get a coffee before class, listen to a comforting playlist, bring a book to distract yourself…

I made a little “back to school” playlist that might help you; autumn always puts me in a gloomy mood and cosy, so if that's something that you resonate with, feel free to check it out!! <3

As always, Please feel free to add your own suggestions and tips in the comments!!

glow up challenge day 13/60 ˗ˏˋ ★ ˎˊ˗

☕️ academics: submitted an assignment and completed reading for 2 units. few things—

implementing the time blocking technique worked well today esp since i scheduled my study sessions when my energy levels were higher.

quizlet helps to keep everything i learned in one place where i can efficiently and accessibly review it.

i love the study flow state so much!!!

☕️ fitness: strong yoga :)

☕️ spiritual growth: meditated, journaled, prayed. insights—

delayed gratification is lovely. knowing i did my best and can now rest/indulge is so rewarding.

clean, intentional spaces serve me well.

thinking about how erikson’s developmental psych says that love is a virtue to be learned through intimacy in your 20s. i’m really grateful for my relationships.
