Coming up on the last couple of weeks of my undergrad! Desperately trying to cram in every last experience I can; technical and otherwise. It's been a blast, but I'm exhausted.

(So, you know. Business as usual! )

Hello hello! ✨ Congrats on 500 followers, omg!! That's a pretty impressive milestone to reach! 😂 (I'm under going some blog renovations, so sometimes the links to my tagged posts don't even show up. Haven't figured out how to do that yet 😅, so please search #jyoposts) Congrats again! Have a nice day 💛

oh yes i know tumblr is so confusing!!

url: i don’t really get it but it’s cool! | nice url man! | JEEZ THAT’S GOOD

icon: cool! | awesome icon design omg! | INCREDIBLE

desktop theme: generic but ok! | awesome theme! | HOLY COW WHAT A THEME

original posts (you can put your tag when you reblog this!): cool stuff! | omg i want your talent | CRAZY GOOD

comment: dude your blog is sick!! your original posts are super cool and your handwriting is amazing. i think your theme is a bit hard to navigate but from a design standpoint it’s really pretty. keep doing what you’re doing and have a great day!

Day 30- What’s the best advice someone has given you? 

The first thing that came to mind is a saying someone taught me: "if you're waiting until the ocean waves stop coming onto the shore to go into the water, you'll remain on land forever."

I'm in my final semester at university ! Somehow, I thought this time of my life would never come. Happy to say I've made it this far, so I thought I'd spend a little more time documenting this last chapter of my undergrad engineering journey.

[However, I do run a studyblr, so feel free to judge my intentional matching of my pen ink color to my tea cup hshs]

Working on some writing for my plant pathology class while feeling like a photosyntesizing plant myself; a few hours of golden-hour sunlight does wonders for my mood! 💫

Some notes from a beekeeping meeting. I don't keep bees but it's fun + I learn a lot.

Day 18 of Zoomester Studyblr Challenge- Tag someone who’s blog you constantly check.

I check tags more than blogs. I actively check a lot of #stemblr, #physicsblr, #engineerblr, and #sciblr, bc I love seeing stem content. I also check my tracking tags #jyolook and #heyojyo. [ #heyojyo is new !!! Please use it if you'd like]

Day 23 of the Zoomester Studyblr Challenge - What's some random miscellaneous piece of information that you just happen to know?

Hshs I do know that, in some parts of the United States, buildings that used to be a Pizza Hut restaurant are now other fast food places, but still have the trapezoid Pizza Hut windows. That's how you can tell that a building Used To Be A Pizza Hut (UTBAPH), by the window shape. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Day 4 of Winter Studying Challenge: What is an unpopular opinion that you have about winter? 

I think winter is necessary ! I didn't know this was a hot take (and I hope it's not) but global climate change caused and driven by human activity is not good. Does this mean that we get warmer winters sometimes? Sure. Especially where I live, it's fun and novel to go outside in the middle of November in just a light jacket. But ! It's ! Not ! Good ! Or Sustainable ! The natural world needs winter to know when (not) to bloom, when to hibernate, etc.

Humans need the generally quiet, introspective season too, maybe as time to gather together for warmth, enjoy the soothing nights...

Day 3 of @joystudie 's back to school challenge

3. What's in your pencil pouch?

Well, literally these 2 pens; I'm sure anyone who's seen any of my other posts from this summer knows these 2 boyos very well! 😂

When I left for from university in March, I thought I'd be coming back so I didn't bring all of my pens. It's ok though, these 2 pens have been loyal friends and I appreciate their service.

[Excuse the weird lighting, it's late evening + rainy]

Day 31 of Zoomester Studyblr Challenge-  Send three people some uplifting messages!

Ok, I will!! A big thanks to @progressaesthetics for this challenge! I've been posting everyday for 23 days...I'm exhausted from posting so much but I'm also going to miss it.

Idk what possessed me but this is the first time EVER that I've completed a challenge; maybe it was the outstanding level of the prompts !! ^-^

Thank you also to everyone who has interacted with these posts. It means the world to me.

Day 24 of Zoomester Studyblr Challenge- Share with us your favorite word (it can be in any language)

Well, it changes all the time and also words mean more to me in phrases, sayings, or quotes.

I guess right now my fave word can be "sunlight"! 💫

Aug 3rd: What is your ultimate summer song?

I guess a whole bunch of 2000's bollywood songs are my ultimate summer songs; my family used to go on long [ i mean looong ] road trips every summer, and those were the songs we always played. My mom can't stand regular pop music so 🤷🏽‍♂️

We also used to listen to a lot of NPR. I think those summers on the road really brought me my appreciation for good radio, and now, good podcasts.

I have 2 weeks of school and a week of exams left , but I am truly well out of energy to finish the semester. Hoping @myhoneststudyblr 's winter study challenge helps me try to do my work at least a little !

Day 1: Do you like winter ?

Sure ! It's alright; I like how winter looks when there's snow on the ground (like today) , I get to thoroughly enjoy my warm drinks, I sleep cozily.

The cloudiness gets to me sometimes so I wish I could opt-out of winter weather some days.

Day 29 of Zoomester Studyblr Challenge- Quick! Name your own aesthetic! or alternatively, what’s an aesthetic you’d like to try out?

I think my posts are the line between dark and light academia. Definitely also minimalism, in terms of post and fashion aesthetic as well as a life philosophy. I like clean lines and feeling refreshed.

Day of Productivity #1

So I'm terrible at posting consistently, especially for a challenge, so I'm gna do this new thing where I'm just gonna count up my days of productivity. (It'll stop when it stops? Idk! That's the fun for me, personally...)

Here's a personal project I worked on for fun this weekend: I'm working on turning some addressable LED lights into a useful application but I'm not done yet with the implementation. So, the lights are some dynamic mood lights for now!
