#im procrastinating studying for my physics exam

[girl-bateman]

gotta reach out to literary agents and send query letters before my semester starts but I ALSO gotta redo the exam i failed 3 years ago before the semster starts.... choices choices choices .... 😞... so little time....

#gotta study this shit so i dont have to take the exam a third time 😩 #but it leaves me no time to do my book shit #and the book shit kind of demands a whole emotional commitment as well bc query letters are scary as hell #and i cant physically make myself press the send button on emails bc im too scared </3 #yes... the truth is out... im extremly uncool and i need my mom or sister to press scary buttons for me on the computer #cant be helped😞💔 i am the way i am #so something is getting procrastinated here or im gonna have a mental breakdown #personal

hey, first off all just wanna say your blog is so cool i love seeing you on my dash!

i was just wondering if you had any tips for first year students and how to manage time? i think that’s the aspect i have been struggling with the most is time management and getting enough sleep rn.

omg tysm!!! 💜💜💜 so glad you like my posts!! and hope your enjoying your 1st year so far <3

So, how to manage your time:

tbh I haven't understood it that well myself. Personally im a little time blind, so i coordinate my schedule based on tasks i have to do, instead of time.

So instead of: study physics for an hour, it could be something like: understand The Schrödinger equation or study 40 pages.

My only time blocks are: morning, afternoon (before snack time, before dinner) and before going to bed. Which i particularly like since it's more flexible, and if i didn't manage to accomplish everything, i can just move it a bit, instead of ruining the whole thing.

My planner usually looks like this: (it's a bit light, since i had classes all day both monday and today, but you get the idea)

But if you like to study in time blocks, my tip is to give them space to be flexible. So if you delay smth it doesn't ruin your entire schedule, and you won't be so stressed about the time as well.

For example, you think you'll take 1h to do this assignment? Save 1h30 for it, if you end up actually needing this extra time, then you're still in time. If you only needed 1h, you can take a break and move to your next task earlier than planned.

Alarms are a student's best friend for time tracking. And a bonus advantage is that it also forces me not to be on my phone, since i set the alarm in there, and it's a visual reminder that i should be working.

Another important thing to do is to ✨ prioritize✨ your tasks!! Your final exam is way more important than a report that's only 10% your grade. Sure, if you can do both it's perfect, but don't waste too much time perfecting smth that's not that important.

Oh, and if you feel like the way your professor explains isn't doing it for you, just forget about that class! It's a waste of time to be 2 hours in a classroom, not even understanding what the professor is saying and stressing about it. Just find some good notes, and study them in the library during that time instead.

Also, for the not enough sleep problem. I feel you. That was me in the second semester of 1st year. I would lose track of time, sometimes just procrastinating, and forget to sleep. My solution for that is ✨alarms✨. I usually wake up at 7:30, so everyday i have an alarm set for 23:00 to remind myself to go to sleep, and another for 24:00, just in case i ignored the first one lol. Really improved my sleep schedules.

(And a little extra (tho i intend to do a bigger post about this soon)

1st year tips in general: Find ways to be interested in your classes, so it's easier to study. Watch documentaries about it, discuss stuff with ppl that love that subject. Even if you are learning how to solve integrals so you can help your crush - totally not talking from experience. If it get's you motivated, then that's all that matters. DONT BE AFRAID TO ASK QUESTIONS!!! I promise your professors aren't judging you, and if your classmates are, well, they won't be judging anymore when you ace that test. And force yourself to take breaks. I would put on my t.do list to watch an episode of a series daily, bc i would be so stressed i would forget to do that. And taking breaks it's super important.)

(sorry for the huge post, I really hope at least one tip in here will be useful for you. Thank you for the ask, and best of luck for this uni year!!! Feel free to ask anymore questions💜)

my rant

tw: talks about weight increase, low self-esteem, moderate anxiety, procrastinating tendencies. this is also extremely long.

i just really need to talk/vent about it.

the worst part about being a "casual" gamer is, you never know when you might get addicted with it. i play genshin and CoD, while cod doesn't interest me as much anymore and i only ever played genshin for like twice a month but recently- genshin has been taking over lol, i played 3 hours of genshin alone yesterday and mind you- i've already finished all the archon (main) quests and i'm still playing it!!! (this is called procrastination)

and this is not just limited to computer games no, i once was obsessed with aerobics gymnastics and was practising it all around my house (before corona struck and i physically became unable to do many tricks cue *decreasing flexibility/strength/stamina and everything after i got sick. after aerobics, my hyper-fixation was basketball and i would play it for around 2-3 hours everyday, my body slowly started getting better and my love for sports and gym was ignited again but then i entered into the senior year of my school and i had to inevitably focus more on my studies because i still can't see myself being an athlete/sportsperson even though i really love sports.

now, i was a science major in my high-school (my core were - phy, chem and bio) and i had always been a hardworker but i started getting burnt out, the more i strayed away from staying active and being fit, the more of couch potato i became. i somehow started studying nicely again, but got corona in sept.2022 and was on bedrest for two weeks, my schedule was a mess again. during that time, it were only my high-school extracurriculars (anchoring, debating, basketball, student council) which were keeping me happy along with a few friends (who in future became insecure of everything i was doing and shut me off by calling me "fake", that shit hurt.) and because i had missed 2 weeks of school and was already behind the syllabus by myself because of improper time management, so i developed anxiety- i only realised this after i had a mental breakdown in school for 2 minutes which i wasn't able to control instantly. (my anxiety is moderate and i don't need any medicines for it- i just need to keep my schedule productive and avoid procrastination.) i realised that i was quite behind and that i needed to do something so i did, i shut myself off and studied for 3 months without any outside exposure or anything- but that made me gain weight, from a 54kg 5'7 girl, i went on to a 68kg and because i got sick just immediately after, my weight increased to 70kgs. now, don't get me wrong- i love my body, i still like the way i look but, i don't feel healthy and i don't think you can understand how nerve-wrecking it is for a person who could run 5km without a worry pant after 500m. it was really... and i mean really heart-braking, more than my weight gain, it was my inability to do anything which made me more and more insecure about myself.

my anxiety, my newly acquired low self-esteem were adding fuel to my already procrastinating tendencies.

now. that is the main issues- i am a procrastinator, and for some reason i'm unable to fully get out of it and i get even more anxious when my days are going unproductive which they are!

i didn't score bad in my high-school finals, my scores of normal college entrance exams were good enough to fetch me into a top 3 college of our nation for b.sc but- i didn't want that. even though all my other exams went well, i seriously fucked up my medical entrance examination. i thought to take a drop year but im seriosuly scared because i don't think i did anything fruitful this year and i just feel like i wasted an year of my life and my main exams are in 4 months and im really really getting stressed out because the selection rate is only the top 1-2% among 2 million applicants, talk about competition lmao.

see, i am aware that i can do it, i don't know if it is arrogance or optimism but i know that if i really do give it all- my blood, sweat and tears and everything- i know that i'll do better, i will be able to score enough to get a medical college- but the thing is, i feel like i am scared to start and i don't want to be.

i want to- i need to work hard to better than my present-self, i need to work out to get my stamina, strength and flexibility back. and even if i fail- i atleast worked hard, i just don't want to regret anything which i am doing, i need to get out of this slump and i need to convince myself to get up and atleast try everyday. because i seriously seriously think that regret is probably the worst emotion you could feel and i don't want to spend my life regretting my decisions.

i just- had to get it off my chest lol. thankyou for reading this all.

i promise you, i'll be a great doctor one day and will clear this exam with every courage i am able to muster.

i guess... that is all? have a nice day and take care of yourself!

dropping the 90 dop challenge

For the past few days (ever since my final exams started i guess?) i've been feeling pretty low so i didn't care to post (sorry) and didn't even study much. so, i was procrastinating on posting.

this post basically talks about how those days went and also about what i plan to do now.

i was also procrastinating on laundry. so now, when im home, i brought back a huge back of unwashed laundry with me.

my math exam was bad. my programming exam was kinda bad too. my physics exam went okay-ish. my bio exam kinda went okay-ish too. my trw exam.. i have no idea. i don't know what mistakes the professors will point out. and my engineering exam went pretty okay ( a lil more than ok if u consider the expectations i had).

anyways, the day my exams ended, i slept a lot. i slept at 12 pm and woke up at 5 pm. for dinner, we all bought food from outside.

recently i got a little comfortable with eating chicken with friends but i talked to my parents and subtly asked them if they'd be ok with me eating chicken and my father said no so i decided to go all veg (except for shawarma because shawarma is a non veg thing). so during this dinner, me and my other veg friend bought some veg food while the other girls bought some chicken.

i didn't sleep the whole night of 20th, basically. my parents were picking me up from hostel early next morning and it was already late and i didn't want to wake up late. so i spent the night watching some bl dramas.

they didn't show up at 6 (time they were supposed to show up). they showed up at 8 and by then i had got around an hour of sleep in. we went to this wedding. stayed there until after lunch. took an aunty home with us to stay with us for the day (my social battery was exhausted by now and having the aunty at home pissed me off though i was nice with her just two hours ago). i slept the whole car ride home. i spent most of the rest of my day on my phone. aunty left. i watched a bit of "freaky friday" (the one with lindsay lohan) while eating dinner. then i stayed up a bit for some reason and then i slept.

today--

i woke up at 10 30 and my father was pissed about it and he seemed pissed for the rest of the day too. my gran was a lil pissed too but all she said was to wake up early next morning(5) and that she won't let me off this time.

Okay but like, COME ON ITS HOLIDAYS CUT ME SOME SLACK

that's like, annoying.

but ok.

so gran assigned me duties that say i should wake up early at like 5, do the rangoli (nothing special just lines), and water the plants.

ok.

i watched the rest of freaky friday, a little bit of home alone. i did the dishes many times today. i organised my clothes and put away a lot of clothes i didn't want to wear anymore.

WHAT I PLAN TO DO IN THE HOLIDAYS:

well, i plan to learn some drawing during the holidays. i like drawing but i'm not so good at it. so yeah. i've saved some youtube playlists and skillshare lessons.

i also want to watch a few movies from my list.

i even want to help my mother and grandmother with cooking.

Also read? My friend suggested this book called "luv shuv in new york" i'm going to be reading that.

and i even wanna go shopping with my mother, brother. (separate trips with both of them).

that's it i guess?

I kinda wanna do at least one productive thing everyday during the holidays.

alright bye!!

[aroacesigma]

hi.

i survived the science assessment.

ok: im shit (kind of) at biology and ecosystems. they were meant to be about 1/4 of the 1st booklet's assessment questions.

im great at physics. that was meant to be the rest of the first booklet.

BUT WHAT DO I GET? 4 QUESTIONS ON BIOLOGY AND ECOSYSTEMS, AND ONE ON CIRCUITS.

and the 2nd booklet was all ecosystems shit.

i got circuits. im not bad at circuits, but they didnt let me do my physics :(

and i have a french assessment 1st thing tomorrow as well. i need to memorise my french draft thing. after french, is english study. then an english exam where we write a persuasive speech on much ado about nothing (thank you shakespeare *immense sarcasm*)

then i have to finish a music composition. because on friday i have a music hand-in due and then an assessment, then directly after that i have a maths assessment.

WHAT POSSESSED THEM TO TIMETABLE IT LIKE THIS???????

(was this technically me procrastinating memorising my french? yes. do i regret it now? no. will i regret it? yeah. will i skip sleep for the 4th time in a row because my brain is being weird? probably.)

NOOOOOO IM SO SORRY THAT SUCKS </3333 on the bright side, it sounds like you just have to power through and then you'll be done for a little bit . but that is the worst timetabling im so sorry mate . praying for u 🙏🙏

hi girl i really need to vent to someone about this… im currently in my first year of college and i’m taking a bachelor that i really love and feel like it’s meant for me. but nevertheless i struggle to bring myself to study - im a very lazy person and i feel like i do my best only under pressure. but that gives me so much stress and its not healthy to my body. i know that laziness is my weak point but sometimes i feel guilty about not studying because “im not feeling it” and i always have to rush myself.

whats your experience with uni? do you have any advice for me? thank you feel free not to respond if you dont feel like it ❤️❤️❤️

Hii I'm glad you sent me this message because I honestly go through the same procrastination rabbit hole during exams seasons, and even though I don't know if I can offer you a solution, I can at least say I totally understand where you're coming from!

I'm not exactly cured from this, but a few things have helped me work through it, and I'm gonna share them with the hopes they could help you too! SO, first of all, although it may sound completely unrelated, changing my diet actually increased my focus so so much. Last year, my diet consisted mainly of carbs, bad, easy to get carbs, which not only end up making you look unhealthy, but also feel sluggish. I knew how eating would always make me feel sleepy, so I would just postergate having any as much as I could, drink a lot of caffeine, eat a completely unbalanced dinner and sleep almost immediately. In theory that sounds somewhat practical, but when I tell you I could not focus or be productive at all while doing this crazy routine I mean it. Staying consistent in your work also means staying consistent in other parts of your life, so I definitely would recommend working out your health routine in coordination of your study routine! I wrote about the food situation, but that alone would have made a fraction of the difference I've felt having solved both that problem and organizing a consistent physical activity schedule (I do 1h of pilates/ yoga 4-6 times a week!).

I also had to get in my head that there will never be a perfect time to study. I'll never feel like studying, I'll never be in the mood to read a book about the conservation of architecture or do three hours worth of physics exercises, so I stimulate myself with the thought that though there is no perfect moment, this could be the as perfect as it gets moment, and just force myself to do it. I think more than anything, it's important not to fall into the trap of only working when you feel motivated, and create a work routine that's tied to your habits. There's this portuguese saying my mom always tells me "The "perfect" is the "good"'s enemy", and though it may sound crazy, it kind of makes sense... sometimes you procrastinate so much trying to achieve perfection, that you forget that a good result, is far more valuable than a well intentioned unfinished one.

There are probably more things, but I think I've already bored you enough! I'm sure you're gonna get there, let me know <3

ahhh omii procrastination has gone too far for me T_T

havent been doing too well in AP psychology so i need to do some extra credit thats due by tomorrow,, but at the same time i have a foreign language exam to study for.. my world history teachers just incapable of properly teaching us so i have worksheets to do aswell.

agh my history teachers just so frustrating. she doesnt know how to print properly so 100% of the time the documents she hands out to us have missing words and blurred out text. then she expects us to just somehow figure it out.. shes super unreasonable and just wont teach us. everyday is a new document and assignment, she just doesnt teach.. i have like no grade in her class because she never lets us know when to turn in work,, and when i asked her about it she got so sassy w me talkin about, “idk if i can accept this..” like just say ur too lazy to do ur job ☹️☹️

whewww… anyways thinking about comfort w the loml woonhak. ☺️💭💭

(woonhak the type of guy to study harder for his lovers exams rather than his own so he could help them out.)

-🍉

awww my sweet melon :(

i can definitely relate to such a hard work overload. im not sure what grade you're in and you don't have to tell me! but it's so weird for me because i'm a sophmore and last year was much easier in comparison!

i'm an extreme overachiever, so if i don't have straight a's i lowkey freak. and my stupid euro class is breaking down that standard i have for myself because her class is so hard.

my teacher does teach, but she skips so much of the stuff and expects us to retain it all by reading the textbook. except i learn much better when i am explained thoroughly. on top of that, she assigns so many tests?? i have one tomorrow and i have FOUR next week which is genuinely bringing me physical pain.

i'm so sorry though your teacher sounds awful:( that always happens when teachers copy down documents that were made online, and that they didn't create themselves. so sometimes i get blurry stuff too. your case sounds much worse though! the teacher needs a reality check bc wtf does she mean do it yourself? my dear melon doesn't deserve that >:T

you definitely deserve some woonhak comfort wahh :( we both need some comfort cause school is killin us (i am on my knees begging god to bless tumblr with some 8turn writers because i swear only i write for yungyu and he fixes my day in 2 seconds)

(also you are so right that idea is so cute wtf)

rant skdhdjd

deleted twitter for a bit to focus on studying but all it's doing is making me anxious because now i have no other place to vent about stuff and AAAAAAAA i am just in a. loop. i hate the way my brain works because obviously i'm aware that sometimes i will have to do things that i don't want to, or feel uncomfortable doing, except i physically can't get myself to do do those things.

it's like okay sure, you don't want to study this subject right now. but you kinda have to in order to pass and have a future or whatever. and i KNOW this but i still can't force myself to actually study simply because "i don't feel like doing it." like why am i horribly babysitting MYSELF!!!! why can't i just listen to myself when i know that this is something i really need to do it's so frustrating

i've also had a really bad couple of weeks and even though i've been waiting for this august for more than a year now, the suddenness of these exams is really ruining any hope or enthusiasm i've had for the future and it's making me really upset. i don't know what to do really like it's the whole depression bubble where everything is literally fine there is nothing all that wrong with your life and things are actually going smoothly for once but your brain is like, dead set on convincing you otherwise for literally no fucking reason.

i could talk about this to someone but i literally don't have the time i have one exam every single day for the next week and i have no idea how i'm going to pass them. i don't have to get good grades so that's a relief for once but. with the way im procrastinating at this point i have no idea how im going to manage to get through all of this i'm genuinely really anxious about all of it and have no idea how to deal with all of these emotions and stuff

[afklancelot]

For the ask game, all of them!

damn anon you're really putting me out there

well alright then :)

orchid- video game music counts, right? anyways Fanged Fastener from paper mario origami king is perfect. to me.

cactus- currently i'm learning about what would make a good gaming laptop, if that counts. i actually was trying to get into python coding a few months ago, but that's postponed until i get motivation to go back.

bamboo- usually when i get home i change into loungewear: a t-shirt and a pair of athletic shorts.

abelia- i don't take to wearing jewelry unless you count my earrings, which i think came from Claires actually??? anyways, i don't really take them off because i never really felt like it.

daffodil- i got one older sister. it would take too long to list how many differences i have from them, so i'll note one similarity: we both wear glasses.

mahonia- strangely enough, impending exam deadlines. turns out trying to study for a big test is great motivation for writing creative pieces. yes i know this is procrastination.

chia- i've got quite a few inside jokes with my splatoon buddies that barely make sense in context, but here's one with a separate online friend of mine: whenever we say our goodbyes we end out messages with an emoji rat. one time i even stopped myself from going to bed because i forgot to give her my goodbye rat.

sage- probably music is the most touching. i was in band from middle school to second year of high school, including marching band in hs, so that might be why i have a greater appreciation for music in comparison to other arts.

edelweiss- ok so back when lostbelt 6 released in japan, they used fairy knight for the fae servants before their true names were revealed. having 'afklancelot' can mean three things: either "a fairy knight lancelot", "away fron keyboard lancelot", or "a fucking knight lancelot." prolly the most creative effort i had in coming up with a url. as for why lancelot, well she's my favorite out of the cast in lb6, and her scribbly face is so goofy so

camellia- i was apparently really antisocial when i was young, even as a baby. my mom once told me that i was fairly content to be by myself on the mattress and would actually start crying if i were picked up. i'm still pretty antisocial irl, but online i can actually be pretty bold in saying what i feel like, rarely with filter.

jasmine- i really liked The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell, it was one of the few horror books that really captured my focus. will not be rereading though because 1) i don't have the physical copy and i have a habit of not rereading ebooks after the first full read and 2) the ending was fitting but made me a bit depressed, i felt really bad for the main character and her helplessness.

ivy- usually when someone talks to me and i answer in short terse answers it means i want to stop talking to them (tho sometimes it's because i don't have much to say). when i answer with stumbled words and a fast way of speaking, it's usually because im trying really hard to piece together what i want to say. same goes for messaging online: i tend to reply quickly to online conversations without much thinking since im excited to be included in discussions. usually when im feeling angry, annoyed, or upset, i tend to sigh dramatically.

chamomile- stuffed animals. preferably those with rounded body types, as they usually feel floofy and are comfy to lie down on/hug.

aloe vera- it's tied between 'flipping an egg on a frying pan' and 'climbing a tree'. idk this is a hard one.

palm tree- lutherrrrr from The Familiar :3 he's such an asshole who does asshole things throughout the story but he's so entertaining with surprising depth if you pay attention. one of the few characters where i'm torn between "i want to see him get a redemption arc and live on to change for the better" and "i want to see this man actively get worse and die from his hubris". so yeah.

nutmeg- aside from my bed, which has fish-themed bedding and has a lot of stuffed animals piled on top, my room's actually pretty neat from most clutter. i usually hang out in a separate room, which is neat in most places, but the only way i can describe the couch i mostly reside on is "messy as fuck".

papyrus- ive recently been listening to a few lord huron songs lately. in particular, Vide Noir and Long Lost ive been listening to on repeat, the former moreso.

taro- well, it depends on the person. if they're not into video games at much/at all, i usually just say general stuff on how i'm doing, maybe talk about books if they're also interested in reading. if they ARE into video games, i may tell them about the various games ive been playing, maybe including the antics ive been gettin into.

#asks #goddamn some of these questions were hard bc i dont think ive ever had the scenario happen to me before #i had fun tho. some of it was rlly good to get off my chest

how to get yourself out of a study rut 😧📚

tips for all my dear professional procrastinators 😏

okay okay now don't get too excited about this 😌 BUT this is the ultimate "get out of study rut" package.

- planning : this is what i did. i snatched the entire syllabus and wrote it down in my planner. i planned out my entire 3 weeks, when to study what. included breaks as well. i filled my entire day with 9 hours of study + exercise + classes + self-care stuff + sleep.

- time limit : you literally can't afford to sit for an entire day with one page of studying to do. that's such a wastage, babe. in a time deficiet, the first thing you need to do to allot a time limit to certain subjects. for example, i spend three hours studying biology and another three hours with dear old physics. if it exceeds three hours, i give up and come back to it later at the end of the day. time is galleons 💸

- distractions & autopilot mode : absolutely no distractions when you sit to study. no reading through with autopilot mode on. i know there are other better ways than reading through but i still do the ancient trick and that's reading, alright? coz you can't just jump into active recall methods without even reading through the chapter and knowing what it is about. while reading, ask and frame questions like you're the teacher.

- timer & techniques : set a timer, kiddo. i study for an hour and then take a 15 min break. work out which study technique works for you best and study accordingly. don't you dare lose your sleep to study 😤 sleep is important too! honestly, i always prioritize my health over studies coz if im not feeling good, how on earth can i expect my studying to be good?

- stress : pain is temporary but rewards are forever. i reminded myself how this stress is gonna last for only 3 weeks but the exam results are gonna leave a lasting good impression on me. it will lead to my self-motivation, improve the relationship i have with my teachers and encourage me to do even better next time. you have to realize that this will take a lot of hard work & consistency but do you want a good result? yeah? then go for it. take this challenge as an opportunity to learn new things. yes you pushed it beyond your limits and you're gonna achieve it. you just gotta push harder.

kiddo, you got this. you have me here to help you out with study ruts and holes and what not. i provide you weapons 😌 yes yes im your fairy godmother – and a very proud one too coz i see your efforts – but make this your own cindrella story. bring in a twist. shock everyone. just don't give up and lose your glass slipper, alright?

I consider myself an extrovert who can be very shy at first. if i manage to somehow feel comfortable w someone (as in they are warm and open to me), I become super chatty and bubbly, but I can be very quiet and reserved when I'm among a bunch of people or with someone I haven't really connected. in that case i need to warm up a bit first.

altho I love hanging out with my loved ones, I need "just-me" moments too. I like joking and making people laugh and this goofy and "witty" side of me is best seen when I chat or post insta stories, rather than irl.

I can be quite awkward when I talk with people irl. I'm super affectionate with the people I love and actually I can be quite clingy. I need constant attention and love or I start feeling insecure.

I have lots of interests (too many to keep up), that are somehow linked: animanga, asian dramas, webtoons, fantasy, books, insta poetry, linguistics and language learning, graphic design, fiction, history, sociology and whatever is grabbing my attention at the moment.

I also suffer from maladaptive daydreaming, have short attention span, but lots of focus when I shouldn't have, lots of dreams, anxieties and hopes. I often sign up for too many things at once (and regret it) but stillll there's so much to dooo and no timeeeeee

for all my easygoing attitude, I have high uncertainty avoidance: scared of talking to people I've interacted w before, hesitant of like asking informations to a stranger, worried about uni exams I'm not fully prepared for, deeply anxious about a new part time job etc.

I usually procrastinate a lot (and also a mild perfectionist, what a curse) , am disorganised and am a bit of a scatterbrain, often sleep late but! I'm doing si much better now! After I started physically attending uni, moved out and got a roommate I'm doing much better: I wake up in time, I try to study regularly, Im learning how to cook, I clean after myself uwu

I think this means that when I'm somehow in a situation where I should be responsible (got a roommate, living away from home) I really try to do my best. so proud of myself rn! I'm also in this w my bffs so we helping each other become better

sadly for chuchu I don't drink at all! I would also wait a long time to do the full snu snu, until I feel like this person is here to stay. light snu snu is okay hehe. I'm also a bit lazy and while I like visiting new places and all I get tired of traveling and I don't like "being a tourist" (as in, walking a lot, going from one place to the other, taking lots of pictures, guided tours and all that jazz). I like to do things at my own pace and feel cozy :D

I hope this helps!

hi dear!! ✨ thank you so much for taking part in our little event! it's lovely to hear from long-time readers like you🥺 i'm doing much better than before, although still not quite well, thank you for asking!

here's a little bit of your chuuya for you!

i won't even get into detail about how much chuuya loves that he's the slightest bit taller than you. it activates his protection mode- and he sure loves being in that mode when he's around you.

chuuya isn't quick to figure out your innate need for attention/affection- he just thinks you're clingy for a bit and would indulge you while he can and then he's gone off to work again. it would take you opening up to him and having a genuine conversation for him to actually get it in his head, but after that don't worry, he's at your side as much as possible. when he can't, he's texting or calling you. there's never a day you'll feel once that he doesn't care about you.

he absolutely loves your humor! granted you did say it comes out mostly when you chat or on your insta stories but he definitely has an appreciation of it even beyond the screen. especially if it’s derived from all the varied interests you have? you’ve got chuuya hooked. you've just got a spark of joy in you that's hard to find in other people that draws chuuya to you.

if you need him to catch you at times when your uncertainty avoidance gets too much, don't fret because he won't mind doing it for you. but chuuya's more of a proactive person hismelf, so there are occasions where instead of fully taking the responsibility, he'll be, instead, by your side and making sure you don't feel alone as you face your own anxiety on your own!

chuuya has absolutely no idea at first what to do with your maladaptive daydreaming. but once he figures out the ropes he's there for you all the time. need to be more engaged and grounded in reality? he's there, holding you down. need to go to therapy for it or would rather talk to a doctor? he's bringing you to the clinic himself. he'll learn your triggers (if any) and make sure to keep you out of them when possible. it'll take a bit for him to figure it out, but once he does, he's your best ally.

he watches you work on yourself and get better and handling the daily routine, and is super proud of you for every step you're taking in the right direction. he's there to help you whenever you stumble, but for the most part he just loves being able to sit back and watch you slowly get better at avoiding procrastination, studying, sleeping, etc. etc!

related to that, he's definitely going to be super thankful once you've moved in with him and can help him with that kind of regulation. it's not that he can't do it on his own, just sometimes he also deeply struggles with it, especially with mafia work, and to be able to have someone by his side who can help him is a big plus for him.

he'll be fine with you not drinking, he's always got a bottle of a nonalcoholic drink for you to enjoy while he's getting tipsy. but this is only for when you're at home! if you're outside, say, on a dinner, he'll refrain from drinking because he'd rather not have to be a burden on you when he gets drunk. don't worry, it doesn't dampen the experience one bit, because he loves just being with you to begin with!

your extroverted side matched with a tendency to pull back when you're around others you aren't close with is something chuuya deeply appreciates- some dark part in him enjoys that he can have you all for himself in certain situations. but i think the two of you will still be a great match because chuuya absolutely needs someone to ground him as well, and also to stop his little alcohol problem 😂

hi.I have a huuge problem with studying & maybe you’ve been facing this problem too… Do you have any “tips” for overcoming procrastination? 😳Im in the middle of my term but i’ve been procrastinating for 5 weeks absolutely doing nothing.I cannot even wake up for school i just don’t want to my flat mates said im mentally ill and so .. When there’s a test Im crying hours how will i study for it and can’t force myself to do it , ends up with having F mark … Thanks for any advices, I think Studyblr community is promoting just straight A’s, perfection, aesthetics and such stuff but forgets also the other side of the study-side….

Ooh dear!! ♥️

Seems like you’re overworked! I really don’t know what happened to you previously because you didn’t mention it… And yes, this happened to me,too! No shame ! 😀 I couldn’t do anything after exams - Same problem .. ! Please immediately tell your parents about your problem, or siblings! ♥️ If you won’t solve it and discuss about your problem it’ll just get worse… Studyblr is not a right platform for solving our probs , this needs someone who you trust, and know personally.♥️Crying is absolutely OK! What if you ask nicely your friend to study with you at home? ☺️Or try to re-schedule your study plan, (maybe it’s too much for you, you’re constantly overworking yourself) If you feel upset and blue after waking up and this happens every day, please consult it with your GP.. Maybe you’re facing depression and this is very serious! Mental health is as important as physical!!! ❤️❤️ Please DM or send anonymous ask if everything’s OK!

hii

so um ive been finding it very VERY hard to study and get assignments done, and im so overwhelmed by my entourage, that i find starting to do tasks hard like really hard to the point of getting nothing done. i had a physics and chem test yesterday that i had to study for during the weekend but i didnt start revising until sunday, and i still went on twitter for a v long time. and yesterday i was supposed to study for today’s exam and i kept pushing it (and talking to my friends on twitter) ...and didn’t revise at all.

my family aren’t very supportive and im in a stressful place physically and mentally

master i need your guidance to get my shit together please help me <\3

Part 2: “this is the im-ahamed-for-not-studying-for-my-exams anon

i just wanted to add that this year i transferred to a new school, and i hate this place, it makes me bring out the worse in me. we take hybrid classes, and it’s very difficult to adapt.

and at home im always getting insulted by both of my parents lol and even if i wanted to i cant go to therapy because 1)my parents believe it’s a waste of time, 2)it’s expensiveso i tried to do a bunch of tests online to see if i have adhd or add and to help myself a bit, but i just feel stuck, i feel like ill never be able to get out of my lethargy

i used to be a straight A student but this year I’ve reached new lows and sometimes i just feel like im on my own idk PLEASE HELP ME TT”

Hi! It sounds like you’re in a very difficutl situation. And honestly you are asking difficult questions but I’ll do my best to help.

First of all, please realise that this will pass. The only thing a person can’t recover from is death and bad greades will not kill you, I promise.

To the technical part of studying: Delete twitter. I know it sounds harsh but it’s your temporary solution to reduce procrastination. Just get rid of as many distractions as you can. Write down everything you have to do so you get it out of your brain and then divide the huge tasks into smaller chunks. And then choose your priority and just start. Please give it a chance, I promise things aren’t as overwhelming once you start. Make sure to take breaks and do what you love otherwise you will procrastinate eventually, just to get the fun your brain needs

Living in the conditions you described must be hard and my heart goes out to you. Parents are often doing far more harm than they realise. I’d advise to focus on self care and be your own cheerleader! Talk to yourself nicely and learn to love yourself even if it’s out of spite. Also turn to your friends and to people who love you and you feel good with.

Life in your school will get better and please try to find some positives about it. For example I used to hate my own school environment but then I found this hall with huge windows where the sun shines in the morning and there was this small desk surrounded by plants and I still miss that place. It didn’t fix the bad things but it made me feel better and that’s the goal.

About your mental health... You could either try to talk to someone who deals with students’ mental health in school or try to find cheaper therapy on the internet. If none of that is possible, find other people who feel the way you do and talk to them. Join a community that will support you, do research and find advice. Then as soon as possible, find professional help.

I really hope things get better for you soon and please don’t hate yourself for struggling. It’s very normal and you are deserving of love and good things just like everybody else.
