hi! which extension/software are you using in your header pic? (the clock one)

hiya anon! I used the Padbury clock (http://padbury.me/clock/)!!! it’s only available on Mac computers :)

hi! i really love seeing your posts on my dash! i was wondering what pomodoro timer app you use on your laptop? it looks nice and convenient!

oh hello!!! thank you so much it means the world :) I use the Padbury clock!! you can find it online (it’s the first result when you google Padbury clock download) but it only works on mac computers. have a fantastic day xoxo

In you studying post, what did you do to you Macbook to show the clock like that as a screen saver?

hi there! it’s called a Padbury clock and I used this website (http://padbury.me/clock/) to download it!

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!

- new studyblr -

hello! my i’m emily (16-almost 17) and i have just recently discovered the studyblr community on tumblr and i am already obsessed.  i am quite a pessimistic person and i often lack motivation, so i have made a studyblr to help me through the year. i’d really appreciate it if you could please message me and send me any tips/recommendations/advice/jokes/ANYTHING (i’d love to meet new people). thank you thank you thank you.

how did you get the time clock as your computer screen

I used this! It only works for a Mac, though! Unfortunately, I’m not sure how to download it for another type of computer. It's called a Padbury Clock

When to use flash cards: memorizing words/vocab, numbers, equations, names, dates, and verbatim facts or lines.

When to use mnemonic devices: memorizing steps of a process or sets of facts/information/people, especially in an order.

When to use concept maps or drawings: learning (rather than memorizing) relationships, processes, concepts, systems, etc.

When to use tables or charts: learning or memorizing systems (eg. conjugation in a foreign language), sets of sets of information (eg. people and when they lived and what they did), and other large/complex groups of information.

When to use songs: for learning or memorizing anything.

Disclaimer: this is a general guideline. If something else works for you, do it!

I am tagging @letsdiscuss1d @morainda-studies @stresspharmacystudent @somuchtodo @blue-studies @productiveravenclaw @orchidaea @sorrystudying @zoestudiess @elkstudies and @messycontradiction

here are my 11 questions to you all. of course, only answer a question if you’re comfortable doing so :)

1. what is your favorite study snack or drink?

2. what is your favorite way to treat yourself after doing something you’re proud of?

3. do you have siblings?

4. what is your least favorite subject in school and why?

5. do you have a mentor or someone you look up to in terms of success in life?

6. if you’re in high school, what college would you like to go to? if you’re in college where do you go?

7. what is your dream vacation and who would you go with?

8. in your opinion, what is your greatest accomplishment of 2015?

9. what is your favorite school supply?

10. do you watch any tv shows? if so, which one is your favorite?

11. if you listen to music while studying, what do you typically listen to?

okay! here are my answers!!

1. what year are you?

I am a junior in high school, so 11th grade.

2. what has been your favorite song lately?

oh boy. well I was recently obsessed with The Feeling by Justin Bieber and Halsey. it makes me feel mystical lol. I’m not exactly obsessed with any songs at the moment

3. what is your favorite app for study oriented things or organization

I don’t really use any apps for studying. if anything, I used quizlet or google classroom to access materials from my teachers because that is what my school is affiliated with. I do recommend a flash card app called memrise! it’s different from quizlet and I really like it

4. do you blog anywhere else?

yes I do. I have a more fandom related blog @fandomgirling. but I don’t post my own things on that, just reblog stuff

5. do you collect anything random or strange?

no I do not. but I do hoard pens :)

6. what is your favorite pass-time?

mmm probably watching tv or laying in bed haha I’m super lazy. in the summer I like to read books, particularly angsty young adult romances

7. what was the most interesting book you read in 2015?

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou. great book that hides nothing about racially prejudice that used to be incredible prominent in the United States and what Angelou faced growing up. it’s a relatively short read and definitely worth it.

8. what is the most interesting place you’ve been to?

I would say India. my family is from there so I’ve been there about seven times and it’s just so different from the US but I like it there. my favorite place I’ve been to on the other hand is New York City

9. if you were to only give one piece of advice to a friend struggling with stress, what would it be?

go to your happy place for a little bit. I find that if I take my mind off things that I’m stressed about for a little bit, I find a better way to approach the problem when I face it again. also by going to my happy place, I remember that life will get better and all I have to do is keep that in mind and work for it. you can do it!!

10. where do you usually by school supplies from?

staples!

11. who is your favorite character and why?

this is such a hard question omg! I’m not going to be able to pick one (sorry :/) so it’s a three-way tie between Oliver Queen (Arrow), Will Herondale (The Infernal Devices), and Percy Jackson (Percy Jackson and the Olympians). I love these characters because they all have rough back stories and/or are going through incredibly difficult situations we could only think about dealing with, and while they deal with their broken selves, they still love and care for others with everything they have. Oliver is selfless as heck and is willing to die/sell his humanity to save and protect his friends and family, Will gives up the woman he loves so deeply so his dying friend can love her instead, and Percy’s fatal flaw is his loyalty to friends and family. *swoon* anyways that was a little long but I love them all.

thanks again for tagging my and I hope you enjoy answering my questions!!

I visited University of Chicago today :) really enjoyed the tour and the school was beautiful!
