Failure

I practically flunked my exams. I failed my dad my teachers and my fucking self. I barely had 50% on one of my exams. And I thought I was going to medical school. Fat chance smh. Idk if Im going to even pass my easiest choice. 4 fucking years of my life wasted. And on what? Studying the last minute ,ao3, movies and what not. I always thought I could be anything I wanted to, but lets face it ,Im a stupid piece of shit. Like a lot of people I was a great student in my middle school. And this thought of false brilliance I carried for 4 fucking years until this week. Im just a ordinary , mediocer dumbass. And do you know what the best part is? I didnt study and cried my ass off all year just to flunk , no I knew in the back of my head that i didnt start studying in time. But I didnt even bother because I aint in touch with reality. No, im just a empty meathy flesh.All my friends are getting in their colleges and Im the only one who failed,whos going to waste her life. Im sorry for this long retarded post but Im just a loser and a chump who isnt good for anything

Sickfics - Yuuri Edition #2

April Fools by spare | T | Yuuri/Victor, Yuuri & Victor & Yuri P. | 1k

“There’s a Japanese saying for this, isn’t there? ‘Colds can’t catch fools’, or something to that effect?”

On the anniversary of Victor’s arrival in Hasetsu, a drunken swim leaves Yuuri with a cold. Good thing Victor’s there to help him get well. (Ufun.) Three interconnected scenes in three perspectives.

Bumps and Bruises by IllyasJames | G | Yuuri/Victor | 1k

After getting distracted by his own thoughts Yuuri flubs a jump and lands on his head a bit hard. When the day progresses Yuuri starts to feel worse.

Feverish by KasumiChou | G | Yuuri/Victor | 2k

He didn’t want to admit that everything hurt.

That he had a pounding headache that felt so bad that Yuuri almost wanted to bash his head against the wall, because the pain would probably be less than his pounding headache.

He didn’t want to admit that the room was spinning.

That he felt like throwing up, despite not having eaten much in days.

But he couldn’t stop.

He needed to lose more weight, he still wasn’t thin enough.

He needed to practice his jumps, they needed to be perfect.

He needed to improve his step sequence, it needed to be better than ever before.

He couldn’t stop now.

More Than Words can Say by mypoorfaves | G | Yuuri/Victor | 3k

Yuuri gets sick with a cold in Hasetsu and loses his voice! How will he and Victor be able to communicate? How will Victor care for Yuuri? Takes place somewhere between episodes 5 and 6.

Not too bad by DesertRainFrog | G | Yuuri/Victor | 1k

There is a certain amount of pressure you can put on a body, but if you take it away it crumbles.

Yuuri overworks himself and Victor takes care of him. Basically your standard sickfic… give it a read!

Of Fevers and Family by mypoorfaves | G | Yuuri/Victor | 1k

Yuuri is fevered and emotional and starts crying because he thinks Yuri hates him. How will Yuri react?

Out but not down by IllyasJames | M | Yuuri/Victor | 2k

After having to have dealt with Victor and his fever, Yuuri seems to have caught it himself. Bad luck for Victor, If he thought he was clingy Yuuri got him beat. Not to mention, having a fever, beats being drunk as well.

Reunion by CheekyPotato | NR | Yuuri/Victor | 2k

After a month apart due to competitions, Yuuri finally reunites with his fiance but it doesn’t go as planned.

Right as Rain by mypoorfaves | G | Yuuri/Victor | 2k

Yuuri runs to the pharmacy to get medicine to stave off his oncoming cold, all whilst keeping his illness a secret from Victor. Then Yuuri gets caught in the rain, which doesn’t do good for his already-weakened immune system. How will Victor react when Yuuri comes home soaking wet and freezing cold, and how will Yuuri recover?

The Let Down Effect by Icypeach | T | Yuuri/Victor | 1k

Yuuri’s body is past it’s limit after the second grand prix assignment

To Have and to Cling To by mypoorfaves | G | Yuuri/Victor | 1k

Yuuri comes home exhausted after a long day, and Victor takes care of him. Sappy domestic caretaking fluff ensues

Water and Warmth by mypoorfaves | G | Yuuri/Victor | 1k

Yuuri wakes up exhausted and heads to take a shower in the hopes it will help wake him up. But things take a turn for the worse when it turns out Yuuri isn’t just tired, but coming down with a cold. Now Victor has to take care of Yuuri who feels like he’s freezing despite the fever he’s running.

My comedic genius is vastly unappreciated on twitter

I miss them…

I want to apologise to

- Britney for making fun of her when she had her breakdown

- Monica Lewinski for judging her when she was a 22year old temp sexually assaulted by the most powerful man in the world

- Ke$ha for ever thinking she was trashy when all she wanted to do was make party music

- Kristen Stewart for ever thinking she was dumb when she’s actually one of the coolest people ever

- Megan Fox for ever thinking she was just a slut when actually she was an actress being harassed by her employer. 

- Hating all the women who made a career out of having a hot body. Being is shape is hard, beauty is a weapon and auto promotion is hard work. 

- All the Mary-Sues, who exist because young girls everywhere want to be part of a story they love so much

- All the female characters I ever snobbed because they got in the way of my ship.

- Hating the color pink during my teenage years, when it’s actually a lovely color and what I resented was society’s pressure to perform femininity. 

im back slightly better than before but at least i feel like drawing again.

ME1 and ME2 Garrus: Has immeasurable respect for you, lets you be his moral compass. Agrees to become closer to you because he respects you more than anyone in the entire galaxy and you have brought out the best in him

ME3 Garrus: Makes fun of your dancing. Literally will not shut up about the fact that he’s your boyfriend. His ego hangs on one shot of a sniper rifle.

MY study tips!!!

I think it’s time to share with you what I actually do when I study. Here’s a list (non-exhaustive) of the main tools I use before an exam. Enjoy! 

I read my notes consciously, then I hide them and try to write down everything I remember. Then I’ll take my notes again, and look for what’s missing. Not only it permits me to see what I still don’t know, but it also consolidates what I already know. This one really works if you have to learn pathways, key concepts, etc. Re-write as it comes to your mind, make a mind-map, use arrows, etc.

Once I identified what I don’t know, I’ll just put a mark on my notes, so I know that this specific part needs to be more reviewed.

When I feel overwhelmed by all the stuff I have to review, I’ll just divide it into sections and create a study plan! 99% of the time, this makes me realize that it’s not that terrible and I can get through this! I feel much better then!

The Forest App. I don’t use it systematically but it really helps me keeping distractions away (AKA my phone) and in the end, I can have a little peek view of my study session!

Whenever I’m reading something important that I know I won’t automatically remember, I write it down on a piece of paper. Indeed, I always use a bloc-notes when studying, so I just write down important points. By doing this, I become more active when learning and actually remember better! And sometimes I keep those pieces of paper so I can re-read them just before the exam.

I try to stick to a memorization routine. For example, if it’s the first time I read a specific topic that I have to memorize, I’ll re-read it 3 days after, then again a week after, then 10 days after, etc. This is the best way to memorize: « repetitio est mater studiorum » as my anatomy teacher says.

When reading your notes, always try to think about what could be the possible questions that are “exam askable”.

If you have any specific topics to learn about the same main subject, try to summarize each topic on only one paper sheet. It’s been proven that we tend to memorize more when we see the information only on one paper than many. For example, I’m currently preparing my microbiology exam, so I did a sheet for each virus or bacteria and put them in plastic sleeves and store them in a binder. By doing this, I’ll be able to re-read them all the days before the exam and retain the most important information! 

The textbook is cool, but sometimes I’m in a rush and summaries made from previous years students will do the job. Of course, I make sure there’re no mistakes inside. And it can actually help with difficult subjects. 

I only use flash cards for vocabulary (my dear Spanish!) or pharmacology. They are the PERFECT way to memorize some things by heart!

I multitask intelligently. For example, when I workout I listen to audiobooks or watch medical-related videos on youtube while walking on the treadmill 

I test myself. I take online quizzes, I ask some friends or my boyfriend to interrogate me so I train my brain to see the problems differently and learn more!
