The semester has been so busy! Sorry I’m so slow with posts! I got into the Advanced Honors College this week, and started making my schedule for next semester so there’s a light at the end of the tunnel at least.

Some of my favorite fashion history notes this semester :)

2.19.22

Sorry for being so inactive! I got elected to residence hall council this semester and joined the debate team so that’s all eating my time up. A lot of my class work is writing this semester so I’m really enjoying it.

How are your class going so far?

Take care of yourselves!

old notes, but the semester’s started! I’m taking

-cultural anthropology

-fashion history

-historical writing

-american political theory

-Asian civilizations II

a lot of history this semester! I also got elected to my resident hall counsel as a senator, so that’s keeping me pretty busy.

I hope y’all’s spring semester is off to a good start!

Last day at home before going back for the spring semester! Just collecting all my stuff, getting ready, and writing my pen pal :)

1.20.22.Th

I’ve finished the first four essays for my winter class! Now all I have is a presentation and I’m finished the 25th, then go back on campus the 30th! I’m super ready to go back, even though my campus is covered by two feet of snow right now.

1.12.22.W

Just taking notes on my documentary for my next report. I did “Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution”, and I would HIGHLY recommend it, it’s on Netflix!

Have a good day friends :)

This will be a bit personal, but towards the end of last semester I struggled with some depression that began to make it feel really hard to complete basic tasks like showering and getting dressed.

I would just go to class and study, then go to bed often earlier than 7 pm.

I’ve started journaling and working with a therapist, but I also decided a habit tracker might help me stay accountable for my basic upkeep when I’m struggling.

So here it is, I know it’s a bit silly but it’s 2022 and this year I’m promising to take care of myself better ❤️

1.8.2022.Sat

Started my winter class! I love it! It’s a lot of writing but on fun topics, I’m currently writing about West Side Story :)

Final semester marks! 4.0 babey. amen hallelujah. My winter class starts next week! It’s gonna be hard because I’m bad at economics, but I’m reducing my work hours to have time.

Good luck on your winter semesters if you have one, if not then just enjoy your break!

Studyblr is kinda like hanging your assignments you’re proud of on the fridge but virtual.

This is my favorite tags on this post. Let’s be honest we’re all here because we didn’t get academically validated by our parents

3rd YEAR of UNI

hey everyone! if you’re just stumbling upon this post and are new here, i’m going into my 3rd year of undergrad in bio for health sci a.k.a pre-med sorta deal! i did this post last year and u guys loved it, i also think its a great ways for us #studyblrs to share more . this is just an update into what courses i’ll be taking this year, life updates, tips i learnt from last year + more!

PICKING COURSES

my courses:

I’m a health sci bio major with a double minor in chem + business! so here is what my full-time year of studies looks like (5 courses per semester)

• physiology of neurons & muscles
• human development
• structural biochem
• metabolism & bioenergetics
• neurosci
• statistics
• lab in cell & molecular bio
• molecular bio
• fundamentals of marketing
• managing projects & business plans

for freshman, your courses are pretty set and you likely won’t have much choice around what you actually want to take, so unless you’re an upper-year, you likely won’t see more interesting course titles like what i have above. not much for an update in this section, i planned most of my courses last year, but the most frustrating thing that happened was 9/10 courses i wanted to take were in my fall semester originally, so i have to do A LOT of rearranging, anywho…..

scheduling:

i’ll link last years post here as i went into pretty deep detail of how i schedule my courses and how you can too!

other tips + updates:

it’s always okay to change your programs!! (ie. major, minor, specialist) don’t let the standard of “a 4-year degree” fool you into thinking you can’t take longer. its always a good idea to look ahead and try to plan, but this age of our lives is when we’re changing the most and really finding who we are and what we want to do with the rest of our lives. it’s definitely not something to rush.

if you have to do summer courses, or retake courses, or take an extra semester, don’t beat yourself up. it happens to 99% of people!

take me for example!! i went into school thinking 100% i wanted to go down the med path, now here i am starting my 3rd year and I’m not so sure. I’m more so looking at doing my masters in physical therapy. you change, life changes, and you find what works BEST for you and the path you want for your life.

ALSO your path doesn’t have to be linear, or the typical; if you want to go to med/law/other post grad school, but your grades or extra curricular didn’t necessarily cut it, that’s okay! maybe you’ll work somewhere for a year or two and go back to school and get in. basically what I’m trying to say is if there is a career path that you love, don’t give up, and don’t think you have to get there the same way as someone else did.

currently, my fall courses are all completely online (minus 1 in-person tutorial) i hope most of you will be in-person, unlike me. but i’ll continue to post both online and in-person study tips as the year progresses.!

LIFE BESIDES SCHOOL

this summer i was lucky enough to work as an online PT, and this will probably continue part time into the school year. besides my other social accounts kinda blowing up, working on Syrse Dawn, I’ve been crazy busy with everything. I’m a little worried about balancing everything come the school szn, but as usual, i always prioritize my school work

we love academic validation haha….no but seriously, i love learning and school, and doing well has always been important to me, so while my work is important, mental health and school come first.

right now some passion projects and summer bucket list things I’ve been working on are finishing a current novel I’m writing (haven’t finished writing one since 2015), reading 1 more book, filling a sketchbook, going for a sunrise swim and honestly just spending as much time with my friends as fam as possible!

• • • • • •

like last year, i’d love to create a chain of studyblrs doing an update like this, sharing their courses for the year, how they organize them, updates + more! so if you get tagged, add to this chain + tag 5 more studyblr accounts!!

i’m tagging: @studyblr@felix-studies@studyingatsunrise@luminous-studiess@starrystvdy@studylustre

if you have any questions for me, my ask box is always open! i answer all the questions in my ask, so don’t be afraid to hit me up there

hope this helps you a little bit and you get to learn a bit about me xx
