☆ ͡ ݂ ۫ study advice ★, ◜﹒❀﹒\ #intro hello, and welcome to my first ( real ) project ! today i'll be presenting some study tips that you might find beneficial :) #001 ─﹒♩﹒get comfortable fairly basic i mean self explanatory !! be sure you're sitting ( or laying down ) in a comfy place—anywhere BUT your bed / something you sleep on or something that might cause you to direct your focus to something else.. make sure you bring yourself some nutritious food , study music , and ALL of your study equipment ( will get into each of those later *wink* ) #002 ─﹒♩﹒using a device ? is your homework online ? i suggest getting the forest© browser extension ! you can block distracting websites like..for example: this site that you're viewing my project on- and set a timer. forest© is super helpful for me personally , i get my work done a lot faster because of the "focus to grow your tree" motivation :") you can use other sites too , but this one is highly recommended by myself and others , too ! <3 #003 ─﹒♩﹒snack time ! do ever reach that point when you're studying...and your stomach starts talking- ? be sure to grab some snacks before you get into it ( yuh- /hj ) , it'll help you in the future , so you don't have to: ( 1 ) get up ( 2 ) walk to kitchen and grab something ( 3 ) be further distracted and forget that you were even studying #004 ─﹒♩﹒hit that play button no one likes it when they are studying and..it's super quiet *crickets*- you know what i mean ? go on whatever music thingy you have and play some STUDY music: i can't even tell you how many times i've said, "oh yeah imma just play some of my og music" and in 20 minutes im not even studying !! preferably play music that has NO lyrics [ like no words ], piano is a good choice but you're welcome to choose from things such as lofi :) ─﹒♩﹒study equipment have you ever started studying and then you go to grab for something and...*looks down* IT'S NOT THERE- ? be sure to bring EVERYTHING: even if you feel like you don't need it, its better to have it rather than having a "uh oh i didn't bring my ____" moment. pens , pencils , erasers , led refills , notebooks , papers , etc ! <3 ─﹒♩﹒make it fun *side-eye* studying probs looks h3lla boring sometimes , like you have no motivation: and thats perfectly normal ! but think of it this way: when you get an answer correct , or get a great grade on a test—thats props to you for studying and taking the time to understand what you're learning ! ✨ studying doesn't just have to be straight boring-studying , set a goal: for example- if you manage to studying straight for 15-20 minutes , you can get a 5-10 minute break to do whatever you want ! you can also totally make your notes creative and artsy **me sobbing at this statement** <3 ─﹒♩﹒take breaks taking breaks is important , you shouldn't be just straight-studying for 30-60 minutes straight: you're probably not even understanding anything after the 35 minute mark because you haven't taken some time to let your brain rest ! there's this "strategy" where you study for 15 minutes , and take a break for 5 minutes: and you repeat that over and over until you feel that you're done ! never pressure yourself to study for long periods of time: it doesn't work out in the end. ─﹒♩﹒site recs want to extend your knowledge of a topic ( or maybe you want to learn ahead *wink* thats good too ) ? seneca© is a great site to help you do that ! look for your courses online and use spaced-repetition to jog your memory. seneca© is also very fun and captivating !! :D ╰﹕ ୧ uh-kay thats all ! i hope this helps and if you need any further advice feel free to ask here , or in my chatbox ! ✯ ﹒﹒everything : nothing is f2u by any means !! ︰✦・tags・ #
