i made a whiteboard out of a poly pocket and it is, quite frankly, saving my ass with all the derivations i’m learning atm.

Hi! I found your studyblr a few nights ago, and I was reading through your posts. I saw that you mentioned something about a summer program in astrophysics. Do you mean the summer science program in astrophysics? :)

nope, it’s a program run by a scottish university!

(also i’m sorry this is late, i never check my inbox)

huh that seemingly unpleasant task only ended up taking eight minutes to complete and was surprisingly satisfying, I may have erred in putting it off for two weeks.

adulting is difficult, folks. but also kind of exciting sometimes?

i saw @chazza-studies-alevels do this and it looked fun :)

what year are you? i’m scottish so uh i’m starting S6 after summer aka my last year of high school ?? it’s so confusing to compare to english years but i think year 13

what are you studying? advanced higher (similar to a level) maths, physics, and chemistry. also music performance!

what’s next after graduation? i want to study physics at university and maybe do a phd in astrophysics

morning or night person? i am such a night owl, my productivity and motivation spikes at 10pm

front/middle/back of the class? i have terrible eyesight (~-12 in both eyes with a strong astigmatism in my right) so front but sometimes i like the middle

best feedback from a teacher? my physics teacher (my fav teacher ever) said i’m the best student she’s taught 🥺🥺

best study tip? understand content, don’t memorise it

three fun facts: (1) i love terry pratchett’s novels. (2) i am terrible at keeping plants alive. (3) i cry at the finale of every tv show i watch

if you want to answer then i tag you !

Woke up at 7:20. Water. Breakfast. Derivation (theory). Lunch. Glow-up journal. Astronomy lesson. Tea break.

Some days feel neutral ( i'd like to have more of these days )

that feeling when after doing so so much work and revision that you genuinely feel you know the work you’re doing. you know it inside out and understand it fully and can explain it without checking anything. that feeling is GOLD

i’ve read more books in 2019 than i did in 2018 and it’s only march... oops. also i’ve watched some really different tv shows/ movies and i’ve enjoyed broadening my taste ig. i really want to watch captain marvel next !! if you want to see what books i’m reading have a look at my other blog @laurensreadinglist19 <3

learning to let go and learning to relax means just freaking sticking those stickers on something. stop worrying if it’s the right place. burn that nice candle you’ve had for a year. it doesn’t need a special occasion. I’m gonna use those fancy soaps I’ve been collecting in a drawer even though they look so pretty and it means I’ll use them up. everything is temporary so just enjoy the littlest pleasures you can possibly have we all need to just let go and enjoy things while they last. the sticker’s gonna look fine on your water bottle I promise
