15 things I tell myself when I don't want to work/study
1. You are very lucky and privileged to have access to almost unlimited knowledge and you should appreciate that.
2. Be one of those rare people who step over their insecurities and succeed.
3. Only 5 minutes. Only today. (Repeat it 5 minutes later and every day).
4. You will know what to do as soon as you start. Ideas never appear from inactivity.
5. Make yourself proud.
6. One hour every day doesn’t feel much but it’s 365 hours a year. You can’t not succeed after so much work.
7. It’s not supposed to be easy. Nothing good is easy.
8. If you had a child to look after, you’d make them study because you want them to accomplish something. Don’t you love yourself?
9. “Everything you want is on the other side of fear” George Adair
10. Every mistake increases our chance to make progress.
11. If you give up now, you’ll have to return to this later anyway but from the very beginning.
12. Let the process be your result.
13. Every moment you thought your fears would suppress you has become the time you made it.
14. Maybe you think you can never find something to use your skills and mindset for. But if you continue investing in what matters to you, it will find its way out there.
15. I allow you to think globally. You have a right to the boldest dream.

5/100 days of productivity :: woooheeee, have I been absent! im so sorry for the lack of original posts on here, so to make up for it I decided to post these module summary posters I made for my sciences on my graphics tablet; modules B4, C5 & P4! writing posters is a really effective way to revise for me, so i plan to make more of these and hopefully upload them too. ♡

When your days are packed with exams and lots of classes that require hardwork, getting the sleep that you need is important. I’m no sleep expert but some of these tips/advice might be able to help some of you.
Make a set time for you to go to sleep and for you to awake. This will help to form a natural, regular sleeping pattern.
Control the environment you sleep in. Sleeping with light on in the room makes it harder to fall into slumber. Consider earplugs or sleeping masks if noise or light may be bothering your sleep.
Calm yourself down before attempting to sleep. It’s difficult to go fall asleep if you are still feeling very active and hyper.
Get out of bed and do an activity if you have laid in bed for over half an hour, struggling to get to sleep. It shouldn’t be too stimulating so that it helps you become more tired.
Reduce the time of your nap because prolonged naps during the day can effect your sleep at night. Limit your nap to 30 minutes.
Exercise during the day so that you lose energy. When you go to bed, the exercise will have made you more tired.
Sleep according to the recommended hours of sleep. For adults it is 7-9 hours and for teenagers it is 8-10 hours.
Think about getting apps that may help you fall asleep. For example, ambient sounds or white noise apps may help some people. Alarm apps are also useful for forming your sleeping pattern and getting the recommended hours of sleep.

What are white dwarfs?
Some curiosities about white dwarfs, a stellar corpse and the future of the sun.
Where a star ends up at the end of its life depends on the mass it was born with. Stars that have a lot of mass may end their lives as black holes or neutron stars.
A white dwarf is what stars like the Sun become after they have exhausted their nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, this type of star expels most of its outer material, creating a planetary nebula.
In 5.4 billion years from now, the Sun will enter what is known as the Red Giant phase of its evolution. This will begin once all hydrogen is exhausted in the core and the inert helium ash that has built up there becomes unstable and collapses under its own weight. This will cause the core to heat up and get denser, causing the Sun to grow in size.
It is calculated that the expanding Sun will grow large enough to encompass the orbit’s of Mercury, Venus, and maybe even Earth.
A typical white dwarf is about as massive as the Sun, yet only slightly bigger than the Earth. This makes white dwarfs one of the densest forms of matter, surpassed only by neutron stars and black holes.
The gravity on the surface of a white dwarf is 350,000 times that of gravity on Earth.
White dwarfs reach this incredible density because they are so collapsed that their electrons are smashed together, forming what is called “degenerate matter.” This means that a more massive white dwarf has a smaller radius than its less massive counterpart. Burning stars balance the inward push of gravity with the outward push from fusion, but in a white dwarf, electrons must squeeze tightly together to create that outward-pressing force. As such, having shed much of its mass during the red giant phase, no white dwarf can exceed 1.4 times the mass of the sun.
While many white dwarfs fade away into relative obscurity, eventually radiating away all of their energy and becoming a black dwarf, those that have companions may suffer a different fate.
If the white dwarf is part of a binary system, it may be able to pull material from its companion onto its surface. Increasing the mass can have some interesting results.
One possibility is that adding more mass to the white dwarf could cause it to collapse into a much denser neutron star.
A far more explosive result is the Type 1a supernova. As the white dwarf pulls material from a companion star, the temperature increases, eventually triggering a runaway reaction that detonates in a violent supernova that destroys the white dwarf. This process is known as a single-degenerate model of a Type 1a supernova.
If the companion is another white dwarf instead of an active star, the two stellar corpses merge together to kick off the fireworks. This process is known as a double-degenerate model of a Type 1a supernova.
At other times, the white dwarf may pull just enough material from its companion to briefly ignite in a nova, a far smaller explosion. Because the white dwarf remains intact, it can repeat the process several times when it reaches the critical point, briefly breathing life back into the dying star over and over again.

Academic word list
The Academic Word List (AWL) contains 570 word families which were selected because they appear with great frequency in a broad range of academic texts. The list does not include words that are in the most frequent 2000 words of English (the General Service List), thus making it specific to academic contexts.
