I think one of the most useful things you can do when studying is to be genuinely nosy. If I don’t understand something, I don’t force myself to memorize it. I start asking questions that aren’t even necessarily required for the exam. Why does this work? What happened before this? What would happen if you changed this part? How did this even happen? Max out all the W's and H's you can think of.

I did this today with one of my readings. I got stuck on one term and then I looked it up, then ended up reading about something completely different that was mentioned in the explanation. Was it technically beyond what I needed to know? Absolutely yes. But will I eventually get it? Oh, I will if I study. So what are we even waiting for

I feel like curiosity became underrated especially in this modern era because we’re so used to studying by asking “What do I need to memorize?” instead of asking ourselves “What do I actually want to know about this?” Be nosy. It works

I got used to doing grocery runs because my mom is pretty busy and, as the eldest daughter, I’m usually the one she sends when we need something from the store. So basically grocery shopping just became a normal part of my week. After doing this so often, I started wondering how other busy moms or older people find time to do their grocery shopping. I figured some of them probably need someone to pick things up for them, so I started offering grocery runs on the side. They usually send me a list with the exact items they want, and I charge $5 to $10 for the trip depending on how much there is. The only annoying part is keeping track of several people’s lists at once. I’ve had four grocery lists open on my phone while pushing one cart around the store, checking the brand, size, and quantity for each person as I go. My younger brother comes with me most of the time, and he has a habit of sneaking his snacks into the cart while I’m busy checking everyone's lists. So by the time we get to the checkout, there’s always a pile of his snacks mixed in with everyone else’s groceries. Whenever I’m heading to the grocery store, I’ll knock on my neighbors’ doors and ask if they need anything. They’re regulars now, and I can make around $50 just from my neighbors.

Page count is not a good measure of progress (based from my experience). Some pages are easy to get through but you need more time and concentration. The thing is you will not always have that.

I suggest you to organize your notes somewhere that's easier to access and easier to carry everywhere. Put more effort into writing and absorbing them instead of trying to finish a certain number of pages just for the sake of finishing. Treat your notes like your life.

Keep yourself busy. You'd thank your notes sooner if you practice doing this little by little. Also, don't cheat and make your notes slim as a stick

way too many moisturizers and sunscreens and lip balms and lipsticks. (sunscreens not pictured but i have 5 bc i keep forgetting that i have some and buying)

so these are my hijabs (way too many but im an avid fan of color) i had no space for them and i hated all the contraptions made for them. so i made this using water bottles and tape (surely you can find a better thing to stick them with but thats what i got after trial and effort)

this project helped me organize them in a way i can see them immediately plus i drank so much water while making it to get more water bottles so its the most hydrated ive ever been. obviously you can use it for other things not just hijabs but im curious to see what other people have done!

Bought this from shein. It works okay when I set the time but it doesn't ring when the time is done, just ticks while it's counting down the seconds. I trhought maybe it's because it's upright, or it's on its back, but nothing.

edit: i need to turn it all the way back before i set the time, so it was a user error. lol
