Oh motivation, where are you?..
Yeast as a model organism.. great, now I want to bake something..
Pretty Learning in the Morning^^ "model organisms in microbiology", I'm coming for you!
One exam is done - 9 to go, thanks God they are in September 😄 Only 7 lectures and complete notebook is full Oo I even had to tape 3 sheet more in it...
This unstoppable heat is killing me.. last week of summer semester and the first exams of semester in 2 weeks.. The good thing - my mildliners arrived! Thanks @fiona-studies for consulting! Btw I could order them straight from Austria 😉 The bad thing is - it's so hot I can barely concentrate
Is anybody home? Three weeks till semester's end and already nobody there 🤔
Such a lovely weather outside, even though it's too hot ^^ My exam time is coming, so the May Challenge have to be shortened^^ Day 27 - What subjects do you find easiest? Every thing with biology except immunology. Every thing with virology, microbiology, molecular biology, development biology and genetics. I love all molecular pathways, they fascinate me even if some of them are really difficult! All this connection between chemical properties and genetic trait makes me feel overwhelming! Guess I'm just crazy 😁 (or is it just exam period) Day 28 - What's your dream life like? I think we had it already.. a house close enough to the big city and far enough to live in green, ready with PhD and having job, having a couple of children with current fiance, living not too far away from my family... But I don't really plan it, anything could happen. Day 29 - Why did you start a studyblr? I found some pretty notes on Pinterest, accidentally. And I came to Tumblr.. and all these pretty notes fascinate me and inspire and motivate to learn even more. Also I found even some good advices here. And I love the community here, you make me feel like I belong here. Thank you for this ❤ Day 30 - What inspires you? Life! Enthusiasm for knowledge, my family, nature and beauty, imagination and books (including biographies). Call me romantic but I want to help people contributing to researches which could help to fight diseases. Day 31 - Look back at your goals from day 3. How did you? Pretty well, I still stuck on genetics, but I still have time until than to finish it, one sketch is ready and need to be outlined and the other picture is ready, so it's okay. Not the best result, but it's fine ^^
Aren'tmy lecture notes very fancy? xD We should be ready at 13:30 and it was 14:06! And it took 20 more minutes till the end '^^ So this diagram shows how the infection agent, e.g. bacteria, this happy little creature, sprads out some infections out of its basket running on the eucaryotic DNA.. =P May Study Challenge Day 25 - What's somethin you're trying to improve on? I try to improve myself every day ;) Well I would really like to improve my drawing skills (no, its not THAT bad xD) and I think I have to refresh my language skills someday... May Study Challenge Day 26 - What's your style? What do you like to wear? Clothes? ;) Everything that's comfy enough^^
May Study Challenge Day 24 - At what part of the day do you usually study?
Any time when I’m not too tired or not too busy with something else ;) But I refer early morning. Today I had no lectures - my first norma sleep in two weeks. So I started later and well, I just finished for today^^ So it depends on when I can take time for studying. But usually I’m too sleepy in the late evening time to do anything.
May Study Chellenge Day 23 - What type of learner are you? How does this translate to your study methods? I'm definitely a visual learner! I have to see pictures so I can make some kind of movies in my mind and imagine how it works. Writing down what I learn in my own words or shorter than in the book or on the slides helps me to memorize better and putting pictures beside the text helps to request information faster. I'm also a kinetic learner and need to try out methods in the lab to understand better how they work (who doesn't). I guess that's why I couldn't study philosophy further - there hardly things you can picture (metaphysics stuff)
May Study Challenge Day 21 - Do you prefer to write with pencil or pen? Why?
I used to write with pencils in Finnish school because everyone had to and that’s when I learned to love good pencils^^ But in Germany I got used to write with fountain pens, the great thing about it I don’t have to press it on the paper so when I have to write a lot I just need a good shape of the fountain pen. And when I do some rough notes from the book or I write down the questions like on this pic I do it with normal pen because I have tons of them at home xD
What you going to do if your tablet's battery is dead? - writing messy notes and trying to come along with the lecture.. May Study Challenge Day 19 - What's your daily routine? I have lectures at different times, so there isn't actual routine in my life. All in all I can say I get up, eat my breakfast, drink my coffee, go to the lectures, learn between lectures, come home hungry as a bear, two times a week I can see my boyfriend cooking us something, other times I doit, than I relax a hour or so and study a couple of hours, than it is already about 10 p.m. and I watch Netflix and crochet or I just read a book. When I don't have to wake up early and my boyfriend is at home, we can also play some computer games or just watch Netflix together. That's it, because I'm actually from 8 a.m. till 5 or 6 p.m. at the university.. and my weekends are filled with cleaning our flat, doing laundry and doing some weekend shopping. But it contains also more studying at home, shopping (tomorrow I'll visit out stationary shop^^) or going to library and thousands other things to do, so not time at all, can someone add one day into the week?
OMG this great weather before lectures on Friday!!!! Love it!!!!
Theologist, psychologist and biologist are walking into the park.. and they talk about everything and have really cool time together! xD Had a great day in the Park of Freud near the Votive Church studying and meeting new interesting students^^ May Study Challenge Day 18 - Do you like background noise while studying, or doyou prefer it to be silent? I you listen to music, what's your playlist? I listen to music while I sum up my notes. But this week I don't want to listen to any music at all. I gues I just have not enough sleep and to much concentraton and no time for music this week =)
8 a.m. in Vienna... May Study Challenge Day 15 - What subject is hardest for you? How do you go about studying for it? Maths... And I can understand it only if I find someone to study with, who can explain it to me. It is also important to do exercises regularly. At the moment it is difficult to learn immune biology. So I just take enough time for it =) May Study Challenge Day 16 - What's your favourite study method? I think we had it already in the April challenge - I write all notes on my tablet during the lecture, then I sum up my notes and the skript and all books in a notebook. And when I'm ready I use flashcards and do all old test through. May Study Challenge Day 17 - Do you prefer group projects or individual one?Why? I like both! It's fun to do stuff in the lab together, but I prefer to do assignments alone. It also depends on who I get as a partner, some people aren't relyable at all =(
I don't need to go to gym as long as I use Campbell.. May Study Challenge Day 10 - How long do youspend studying and doing homework each day? It always depends on how long I have lectures during the week and how many other tasks I have during the weekend. At least 2 hours when I don't have time I guess.. And 6 hours (up to 8 hours) when I want to be progressive on the weekend day.. I won't come much further this week as my parents and my sister are going to visit me this weekend (yay!) so I'll just add some extra study shifts next week...
Can someone finish my notes for me pls? Anyone? Will pay with cookies and hot chocolate.
