Tumblr media Tumblr media
This week’s weekly spread ...along with some peaches!
“There is no right time, there is time and what we choose to do with it”
I’ve been pretty unmotivated lately... and scrolling through here I saw a new challenge... so here I come!
(I’m a little late though... I’ll try to catch up)
ZOOMESTER STUDYBLR CHALLENGE
Day 1• Introduce yourself! What’s some basic info you’d like to share about yourself? Also! What are you studying? (If you’re in college, what’s your major? which semester are you in?)
Hi! I’m Sky. I’m 19 years old.
I’m from Mexico. I like to read, paint and play videogames. I can play the violin and a little bit of piano.
I’m studying medicine. I’m just trying to get my life together and learn as much as I can.
I love watching kdramas and reading
Day 2• If you’ve chosen a major, why did you decide on it? If you’re in any other grade , what field/major interests you the most?
Medicine!
Ever since I was little, I’ve thought about studying medicine... (Along with literature, philosophy, biology, some engineering...) don’t hate me, I’m not trying to be egocentric or something like that... I just want to learn as much as I can!
But I guess I chose medicine in the end because we’re all humans after all, I want to know why we are the way we are. I want to know the way our body works, the way our mind works.
I wanna be able to save people, to help people. I want to make a difference.
Day 3• Have you done a challenge before? If so, how was it? If not, what are you expecting to get out of this experience?
Yes I have!
I love challenges!! The promps are amazing and I love to get to know other people!

For those of you who are new…
First of all, welcome! Whether you’re a fellow blind/visually impaired student, or you’re a sighted person that’s curious about the life of a blind student, you are more than welcome here. I try to stay consistent on here and stay updated, but I wanted to address some things that may be helpful to you.
About Me
You can call me Lena. I am completing my last year of high school, and I hope to study music (vocal) in college soon!
Currently Studying
• Paychology
• Choral and vocal music
• Music Braille
• Italian
• Coding (just started)
• Environmental Science
• Braille (fluency and proofreading)
• Braille transcription (my hope is to someday earn my transcribers certificate)
• ASL
Things to Keep in Mind
1. I have a few other blogs (most of them blindness related), which you can check out at my Other Blogs page.
2. If you haven’t already noticed, I like to write in large print and bold. I do this because it’s easier on the eyes, whether or not you’re visually impared. It’s part of my way to make Tumblr accessible! Feel free to “steal” my formats, I don’t mind. If it helps someone, then that’s great!
3. Also note that I don’t use a lot of pictures/images/graphics/visuals. I will post them sometimes, but I can’t guarantee that they will be any good. Instead, I try to add descriptions of my desk, or my journal layouts, or the weather, or whatever. This allows me to incorporate sounds and smells as well, so…yeah.
4. I use a lot of abbreviations, such as BVI (blind or visually impaired, VIP (visually impaired person), and stuff like that. I’ll usually clarify if it’s one I don’t use often, but these are the main ones I use.
5. While I do post a lot of original content, I still include academic stuff that may have nothing to do with blindness. I am a choral music student, so I do post about that, and I’m a bit of a nerd and love chemistry, literature, history and such, so I will include that here, because I really believe that, as a blind person, we should still have interests that may have nothing to do with blindness.
6. Oh, and I am a devout Catholic. It comes up in practically every aspect of my life, I do have a seperate blog for all my Catholic posts, but don’t be surprised if I mention it here and there.
Oh, and for my fellow VIPs…
1. Header is a pale blue gradient with hints of green and purple mixed in.
2. Avatar is a picture of my hand running along a line of braille.
3. I try to make all my posts large print, but I can’t really do that with reblogs, so I’m going to label those as #small print
For my fellow Studyblr-ers…
I track the tag #blindacademia
And with that, enjoy!
