I Have Such Productivity Guilt That Sometimes I Feel Bad For Being Tired?? Which Is Kind Of Ridiculous

Hello! I'm in AP Bio as well and my teacher is very bad at teaching. I have an A in the class but I don't think I've learned much at all! When I try to read the textbook it's very overwhelming. Do you have any advice on learning it on my own and where to take good notes from? How do you personally study for bio?

Hi anon! I was kinda in that situation earlier this year! My advice is to go to YouTube and find the Crash Course channel. There, you can find a huge range of videos on a lot of topics! For biology, I like to go to the “Biology” playlist and find the video that pertains the the chapter. Sometimes there isn’t a corresponding video :/ Sometimes the “Anatomy and Physiology” playlist has a related video or two.

I know that the textbook is overwhelming, but my teacher gives us these reading guides that go through the key parts of the chapter and those really help if you actually read through the chapter. I say actually read because you kind find the answers online as well lol. If that interests you, maybe try going through those slowly?

I hope that helps you, Anon!! Let me know if you need any help personally!

Weekly spread; I always associate August with an earthy and cool kind of tone for some reason. The first week of school has been really incredible–I made new friends, my teachers are fantastic, and I’m loving (if not at least tolerating) most of my classes!

Being entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise.

This scene will forever be the most important scene in any movie to me.  This is a little girl who has been told all her life by her parents that she is a mistake and that she is worthless.  This is a little girl whose family life is so horrible that books are her only escape.  This is a little girl whose parents constantly belittle her for reading, the only pleasure in life she has.  And in this scene, this little girl answers very shyly, because she has been conditioned to be embarrassed of her own existence.  At first, she answers slowly, and without making eye contact. And in this scene this little girl is beginning to realize that maybe she is special.  Maybe there are kind people in the world.  Maybe she is worth something.
