Went out to the British library to study and then we went to Hyde park after for a walk! Managed to get a little chemistry done but not as much as I would’ve liked.. especially with exams coming up.

types of study settings
raining:
sitting close to a window, sure to hear and see the raindrops fall
candles lit, fairy lights strung, the soft orange glow of warmth surrounding you
a desk cluttered, but organised
a laptop with its brightness on low
or a journal spread open with pens ready to be used
quiet
morning:
the soft morning sunlight hitting your (note)books
the scribble of the pen scratching across the paper, writing and memorising
a cup of tea or coffee, the damp curling through the air above it
the soft rattle of music playing in the background
hearing the world wake up along with you
night:
the tired ache of your body after having lived through another day
your mind tired in a way that it won't get distracted easily
sitting down at the desk, on the couch, but steering clear from the bed for fear of falling asleep too soon
candles lit, tea made
either staying in your day clothes or deciding to get ready first
the clean feel of your face as you ready yourself for your study session
library:
walking through the rows of books to find a quiet place
hearing the murmurs of other students trying to grasp their mind around their study materials
the table in the back corner of the library, a big window in front, lined with bookshelves on either side
setting your stuff down and making that little place yours, if only just for a little while
working away, not noticing time go by, suddenly the soft glow of golden hour falls onto your work
the quiet murmurs and laughs of other students have faded away
being proud of what you've achieved

one of my favourite ways to recall and absorb information on a topic is explaining it to someone who knows nothing about it. Obviously this requires a volunteer, but it gives me an opportunity to paraphrase my own explanation in simple or alternate terms so I know I comprehend it, rather than just memorizing and repeating textbook information. It’s the #1 way I remember anything now! even just writing a paper as if you were explaining the topic to someone helps

How to Study Effectively
Effective studying involves more than just re-reading your notes or reviewing flashcards. To truly understand and retain the material, it's important to use a variety of study techniques. Some tips for studying effectively include:
Breaking up your study sessions into smaller chunks, rather than trying to cram all at once.
Staying organized by using a planner or calendar to keep track of assignments and test dates.
Varying your study techniques, such as teaching the material to someone else or writing a summary of what you've learned.
Finding a study spot that is quiet and free of distractions.
Starting to review the material well in advance of a test, rather than waiting until the last minute.
By incorporating these strategies into your study routine, you can set yourself up for success and improve your performance on exams and assignments.

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.

Day 5 - 15 days of Productivity
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Goals for tonight:
Finish researching for toxoplasma essay (1250 words)
Finish weeks 2, 3 ABD study notes
Reply to texts from friends/study groups.
Email parasitology prof for honors year
Wash dishes
Put out dark washing.
It's 5pm rn, and I've already done a pretty good job for today. Accomplished:
Packed everything in my room into boxes.
Sorted out thing to go to op shop.
Wrapped fragile things in bathroom.
Went to shops to buy bags for moving.
Put out light washing.
I feel like I'm the type of person to fully exert myself one day and then get exhausted the next day! When I get a bout of inspiration I just can't stop tbh, and then once I'm tired, I can't get up. Wish I was the type of person who could have routine - I rlly thrive in stressful situations. When everything is calm, I just can't function lmao.
Day 4 was one of those days - I was able to spend most of the night packing for my room though and got quite a bit done.
Tomorrow, I think I need to assess the time I have realistically to study for my animal disease biotechnology exam, to figure out how the best to spend my time.

Effective Note Taking: Tips to Improve Your Study Habits
Note taking is an essential part of studying, and developing your own note taking style can significantly improve your learning experience. However, note taking should not just be a process of copying information from the board or textbook. It should be personalised to your learning style and optimised for effective retention and understanding. Here are some tips to improve your note taking habits:
Structure Your Notes for Organisation and Revision
Your notes should have a clear structure with headings, subheadings, and lists for better organisation and revision. Writing notes as if you were explaining the topic to someone who does not take the course is a good practice to ensure that your notes are clear and logical.
Additionally, labelled diagrams and concept maps can help you visualise and understand complex information. Studies have shown that visual aids, such as images and diagrams, are easier to remember and recall than text alone.
2. Highlight and Use Colours to Emphasise Key Points
Highlighters and coloured pens are not just for making pretty notes. They can also help you categorise and emphasise key points, making them easier to remember. Develop your own colour coding system, using different colours for different topics, definitions, or important information. Symbols, such as stars or underlines, can also be used to create your own coding system.
3. Use Your Own Words and Avoid Copying Verbatim
Avoid the temptation to copy everything word for word from the board or textbook. Instead, focus on deciphering the key information and paraphrasing it into your own words. This not only saves time but also helps you consolidate your understanding of the topic. You can still incorporate high-level vocabulary and terminology into your notes but try to write most of the content in your own words for better comprehension.
Tumblr media
4. Consider Using Cornell Notes
Cornell notes are a popular note taking system recommended by universities such as Cornell and Harvard. They include a heading at the top, a column on the side for keywords, main ideas, and questions, a large section in the middle for class notes, and a summary at the end for revision. However, note taking is a personal process, and you should incorporate elements that work for you.
Tumblr media
In conclusion, developing your own note taking style can significantly improve your study habits. Remember, note taking should be a personalised process that suits your learning style and helps you retain and understand the material better.
