Back To Basics!

Ahhh I failed on the 2020 quarantine challenge so here’s to hoping I’ll do better at this!

Hi everyone! I’ve so enjoyed doing my 2020 quarantine challenge and getting to know so many of you (and discovering your amazing blogs) that i’ve decided to create this new SUMMER STUDYING CHALLENGE! i did consider continuing my other challenge but my school year has now ended and the way i study in the summer and my priorities is very different compared to during school time - which i’m sure is the same for may of you! I’ve created this challenge to try and keep myself motivated during the summer (because i am ridiculously busy XD) but i also want to use this time to get to know many more of you and stay motivated together  💕 

(also i know that many people struggle for ideas of what to post during the summer so hopefully these will give you some ideas. 

✨ Info ✨

This challenge will run from Monday 13th July 2020 to Sunday 6th September 2020, which is two months.  However, please feel free to join in and start any time if you come across this challenge after the 13th July because i want this challenge to be accessible for everyone! 

I have daily prompts for each of this entire time. You don’t have to post every day (you could, for example, cover all the prompts in one post at the end of the week) and you also don’t have to post for the entirety of the challenge (for example if your summer break ends before the 6th September). But i will be posting every day for the whole time and want to interact with as many of you as possible!!!

I want to see what you are posting so please use the tag #summer studying challenge and I’ll track this tag and reblog as much as possible!

On this note, I will reblog basically everything even if you don’t think it is ‘aesthetic’ cause I love seeing how everyone does their notes and stuff so please get involved 💕

16.06.2020 Drowsy hot day today, felt too contented to study so instead I prepared delicious food for a solitary picnic tomorrow, there is so much beauty in days living for oneself, even the chocolate came wrapped in poetry.

2020, August

I wrote and deleted the caption about ten times, but I’m just going to say it: I haven’t been feeling well recently. The fact I failed all my exams in June again - and meanwhile most of my friends are finishing their bachelor degrees - makes me feel overwhelmed and like a failure. All I wanted to do in life was go to university, but is it really worth it all this pain and loathing? I try not to linger too much on this question right now, and I fill my days with studying and working. It’s the best solution for now, but I guess at some point I will have to face the reality of things and decide whether I should drop out and do something about my future. I still love studying physics, but maybe it really isn’t for me.
