When we all scroll through Tumblr pinterest Instagram etc we all see tidy desks, beautifully written lessons, revision sessions in nice cafes. But can we show the chaos that revision often represents? While romanticising our studies is enjoyable and can even be motivating, it's important to remember that most people don't work like that and still succeed. So here's my revision chaos 4 days before the start of my exams: binders everywhere, even on the floor, barely legible sheets of rough paper and my flat untidy due to lack of time. Yes, the greatest difficulty in studying is the lack of time, so don't focus on the aesthetics of your lessons, but above all on understanding them and making them interesting.

I guess Cesar doesn’t like geology…

Coding , but cute✨

THE FIRST VISUAL FOR THE SK8 OVA HAS BEEN RELEASED!!

WE’RE GOING TO GET MORE YOUNG CHERRY AND JOE!!!

I've been working on a research project for a few months and I've just sent my first results to my teachers. I'm very proud of myself but also very stressed about their opinions.

It's the first project I've done on my own, so it's far from perfect, but it's a start.

My biggest flex ? Using Saltburn and quotes Jacob Elordi in my french essay 🫡

Gradually falling back in love with studying 🫶

Doing organic chemistry always helps me enjoy what I study

I'm going to one of the most prestigious schools in my country. I don't want to go there because I like the studies or because I'll be well paid when I leave. Not just because there's a ball where you can carry a real sword (need I ask for a better reason?).

7 hours of work today, my eyes are starting to sting but at least I've been productive (which proves that working with stress is effective).

J-5 before exams

So happy to have had Babel for Christmas. I already have the American edition so I can compare the translations, and I can't wait to see how the translator has adapted the meaning of the words in the French version!

And above all, I can't wait to meet the characters again. Babel is the book that really made an impression on me in 2023, and I literally quote it in all my French essays.

Studying geology << observing geology

Exam season = chaos

(Actually I have exams every weeks so it’s always chaos)

I take it as a sign to stop studying

Remember when I said in high school that I wanted to do a difficult degree to push my limits? I take back everything I said, let me sleep and have a social life.

Am I the only one who always reads three books at the same time?

I have the one that makes me think and that I can tell people about so they think I'm smart. Another for fun. And the last is the fanfiction that helps me sleep at night and that I'll never tell anyone I read.

Maybe my bedside is a redflag…

Crying in front of mechanics or mathematics was not my idea of how I was going to spend my evenings as a university student…

More alcohol and fewer theorems would be better

Thanks to the person who thought it was more fun to add a letter instead of a number. Thanks to you, I have to study for days just to do a silly little equation without a number.

If I don’t answer tomorrow don’t worry I will probably just cry for bit because of my math exam.

Reading jjk new chapter and seeing the new episode in a row was the biggest mistake I’ve ever made. Now I’m just going to cry for few hours…

I literally chose difficult studies (one of the most difficult courses in my country) to go beyond my limits, and I have the audacity to complain when it's actually beyond my limits.

It's only been two days since I returned to class and I'm already behind on work? Like how?

I literally do everything to be miserable. I have no survival instinct it's dramatic

I'll never get over the feeling of reading a sentence that exactly describes something you've experienced but can't express. The fullness felt, the often suppressed emotions that emerge thanks to a few words arranged in the right way. To feel seen even if it's just you and a book.

On the booktok there is this huge thing of "don't damage the books". And the whole "never break your spine" "no dog-eared page" thing pisses me off so much. Since I was a child I learned that the more the book is damaged the more we like it. And reading old books, I saw which page was read again and again. I want to see that the book had gone to the beach even if that means the page is crumpled. Books are literally a part of our lives, so it's only normal for them to look worn down from life.

I specifically remember this book when I was 8yo , Inkeart where the main character Meggie talk a lot about this and I think it has greatly influenced my way of being a reader (since I read this book I always keep my reading of the moment under my pillow)

The Black brothers.

narratives about doomed love that aren’t romantic in nature. the love between siblings who understand each other the most but are growing apart no matter how much they try to come back to one another. the love between friends whose life paths pull them apart and they never see each other again, only remembering the face of a once kind childhood. the love for a hometown that year by year becomes less and less the one that raised you until you are a foreigner in your own backyard. there was no stopping it. the love was there and it mattered and you can never come back again.

trc as always sunny title cards (part 2):

In the goldfinch Donna tartt has the power to create a special atmosphere. I am not a native English speaker and even if I do not know the word the impact remains the same.The descriptive talent of this writer will always fascinate me.

Reading the art of getting by is having your heart crushed at each sentences but keep going because the writting is too beatiful.

How the author can make you cry with only five Words ???

Anyway go read it if you enjoy suffering(a lot)

Am I procrastinating from reading my books for school while reading other books? Yes. will I regret it? probably. am I going to stop doing it? Never.
