Study Motivation - Blog Posts
Someone: where do you usually study?
Me: ... everywhere
Have you ever drawn in the margins of your textbooks/notebooks? This allows to relax a little and lifts spirits
Hi :) I haven’t posted anything for a long time because I gave myself a challenge of 30 days of study and nothing extra. I spent this month very productive, but now I want to do the “100 days of productivity” challenge and share my successes
I want to study here 😩💘
Who said, that arabic is easy to learn😩
It was a long but very productive day
Late night session. Library closed at 2am so off to finish my lectures at home.
29.01.2025🐙
I‘m back. I hope. For days I thought about posting again on Tumblr but somehow I didn‘t. But as exam season is now and I need to apply for an internship and start working and working a little bit on my bachelor thesis and writing two term papers and learn for my exam (not necessarily in this order). So I try to hold myself accountable and looking at other posts gives me motivation.
Things to do in general (until end of march) for university:
Learn for exam (make flash cards)✅
Term paper AI (think about prompt, write exposé, get feedback, write paper)✅
Term paper temple (?)✅
Bachelor thesis (formulate research question, look at R for data analysis, get more data✅, clarify supervisor)
Apply for internship (write applications)
So now I need to time manage well and prioritize my tasks.
Let‘s go and I hope I keep updating you guys. I try to post some pics as well. But today I don‘t have any.
Maybe I should add pictures to my posts. But I need to take some first. Next time.
My essay is coming along. I got some feedback and now need to edit it one final time before submitting it. Which would be one and a half week before the deadline.
The last days I kind of finalized my survey for my term paper and today while at work I started writing the term paper. Luckily we only need to create a survey and not carry it out. I already have around 1/10th but this will go a lot faster than my essay because I can write it in german and it is mainly about my survey. I try to finish it before before the weekend which is very ambitious but the next I planned on spending time with my sister for which I'm really excited.
Also the sun is coming out and I keep forgetting my sunglasses. This morning I was too tired I even took the train in the wrong direction. I'm looking forward to the end of all my deadlines so I can play the new Stardew Valley Update in peace. My for you page is full of people that are excited. I love to see it.
Anyways have a nice an productive day 😊
Finished my first draft! Yey.
I have send it to away for some control and feedback. Now only one paper and 2 and a half research projects remain. And two weeks (actually one because one week I'm visiting my sister)
I hope the paper is faster because I don't have to write it in english. Although I can write and speak and understand it pretty fine writing an essay for university in english hits different.
Finished for the day and will be probably playing Stardew Valley the whole evening.
Motto of the day (and probably the week):
A first draft is better than nothing!
Currently working on my essay and very unsatisfied with the progress and the work I'm producing. But it is better than nothing and from there I can start editing it. But first finish the first draft. (minimum 2000 ZoL left)
Hello all.
I‘m sorry I haven’t posted in some time. First I didn’t work my usual shift at work and was very busy during my shift so I forgot and then I kept forgetting. And if I remembered I didn‘t know what to write. But I give it a shot.
I‘m currently at the library and reading some text for my lecture later but am taking a short break. Until now I read all the texts for which I‘m very proud of myself. The presence of the studyblr community motivates me to do it. Thank you💕
This semester I have only on seminar I dont quite like but it isnt every week, so it‘s fine and we have some group work there and this makes it easier.
My plans to go to the gym of the university after my courses where crushed because it is closed in the timeframe I wanted to go. So I did a workout at home instead. I hope to keep it up.
Other than university I really want to continue reading my book series but I only took the first part with me when I visited my family and the library has three (!) ebooks but a waitlist with an estimated wait time of 17 weeks! My family thankfully is sending me the remaining parts and I read the beginning because it was free online but now I can wait even less. But some more days and tomorrow I will be gone the whole day so its fine(ish).
TO DO
🍄 finish the second reading for my lecture
🍄 do another workout this week
🍄 make a presentation about my research progress for a seminar
🍄 some more reading
Have a nice day and stay motivated! 🍄
Soo. After a week an update about the first week of university.
I couldn‘t get a good rhythm for now because last week my family visited me and I spent time with them and showed them around. This week is going to be very full because I have to work one more shift than usual and I have a course which is only every two weeks. But for now I‘m not all caught up with my readings but I‘m working on it.
At the moment I‘m really feeling the fall vibes with the leaves turning. I enjoy a good cup of tea but it makes me sad that it is getting dark so early and with my late lectures I‘m home when it is dark outside. But I try to focus on the colourful leaves and the hot tea and the fairy lights.
TO-DOs
🍄 Doing my readings for class
🍄 Downloading Excel
🍄 Watch videos for class
Have a productive week and drink enough 🍄
University started (finally!) And this semester my goal is to stay on top on all of my classes and do more of the assigned readings. Studyblr is really inspiring me
I already had my first seminar and it sounded really fun. I‘m looking forward to the lecture as well.
Have a nice and productive day 🍄
If your semester just ended or is starting remember to clean your electronic devices (phone, laptop, tablet, keyboard, pencils)!
After all you are using them every day and want them to shine like they are new.

"Consistency beats intensity every time"
the man hadn't met the russian i think🧍🏼♀️
i am fighting tears this language is a punishment even my ginger tea isn't helping
I took a walk while listening to this podcast and it made me realise that i am fucked up but heyy i made a new friend on my way home 🤸🏼♀️
Finished the book i've decided to read on a whim it was pretty good read ngl.Electricity is shit here,our lights went off again so i had to light a candle while studying russian.The old books were my great grandmother's they are older than my entire family i think.And yes i still have old cassettes of mortal combat lol.Me and my lil brother were addicted to this video game.
all days seem like the others since i don't quite leave the house much often these days just some housework,some reading and language learning and and and most importantly praying
today was a grammar day so i died a little (at least verb conjugations are little bit easier than cases of nouns :') )
trying to read Harry Potter in russian because i like to torture myself 💁🏼♀️
дико рада! сдала сегодня экзамен по введению в психологию и получила 5. сначала я очень волновалась, но по итогу ответила все на отлично со словами от преподавательницы : "твой ответ а сегодня один из самых лучших. в тебе прям чувствуется психолог".
как же приятно такое слышать, понимая то, сколько усилий я приложила не только ради этих слов, но и просто чтобы поступить.
