Random life advice for early adulthood idk
If ure having a hard time motivating urself to meal prep healthy food… heres an odd method.
Browse through healthy takeout food options online. Recognize how much they cost and how cheap the materials usually are and how even someone rlly bad at cooking (hi) could make AT LEAST a fake version of them. Like a convincing copy.
Ok cool now boil some eggs or smt
Oh AND greek yogurt is great for easy protein
(Ill post more fast healthy and mildly questionable meal tricks later on if this post was somewhat helpful. I get that work and school can be overwhelming, and it can get difficult to balance a healthy diet over all that.)

How to cope with a bad grade (or a grade worse than your expectations)
Hello hello,
Cinna here! I am a third-year neural science major, so, needless to say, I had my share of academic failures. I am sure there are some people who managed to finish college with perfect grades, but, trust me, there aren't as many as you think. It's human to make mistakes! But it's also OK to be upset about your mistakes. Your value is not determined by your grades! Regardless, here are some tips and tricks to get things going after a big whoopsie daisy.
- Give yourself some time to process: Does this mean crying? maybe. Blankly staring at a wall? Also possible. Let it sink in. This step can take a long time, don't feel guilty about the time spent. As I said, grades don't define you, and it is not the end of the world. BUT your feelings are valid! You are allowed to feel upset or even disappointed. Give yourself some time to do that but don't let your feelings about the situation define your feelings about yourself <3
- Get a treat: Yeah yeah, so you messed up. But I usually allow myself some escapism before getting back on track. Watch an episode you have been waiting to watch after the exams. Get a cookie. Take a nap. Do SOMETHING that makes you secrete some serotonin.
- Check your exam: Make sure to learn what you got wrong. It may feel like it is too late now, but it is NOT! Go speak to your TA or professor and learn what went wrong and why. This might be very valuable for the next exams! It also allows the teaching staff to see you are TRYING to improve. This can be a game changer for the final grade when they consider performance grades or if you ask for a recommendation letter.
- Game plan: It happened. You faced it, you asked for help, and now it's time to plan how to improve. You don't have to follow each and every step but sketch out things to review and when. This will make you state your intention. Sometimes declaring you are gonna do something is more powerful than you think. It will also help you feel less overwhelmed when you are studying for the next exams.
- The redemption arc: Be easy on yourself. A healthy amount of regret can push you forward, but don't let it burn you out. This is a marathon! If you are a stem student like me, chances are you have MANY midterms (too many, absolutely too many). This means you have your chance to fix this. Remember you haven't lost until you stop trying. Go ask for help from your friends. If they are at the same level of knowledge you can cross-examine the content to see if you are missing something. Trying to teach the content also helps you organize it better in your head which helps the learning process. If you are a lone wolf and don't like studying with others, try speaking to yourself aloud (it's not crazy behavior, sush). Stay hydrated and have healthy snacks around! Be consistent and hopeful. I'm sure things will go better during the next midterms. And if not, the other midterms. And if not, the other... midterms... GOd I have too many midterms...
I believe in you, buddy. You got this! Take some chubby pigeons that I found cute as a motivator (they believe in you too).
I really do love how this manga talks about education and the process of learning in such a heartfelt way… it’s so sweet
this is my roman empire, u guys (pls read witch hat atelier plsplspls)
i could gush about witch hat atelier for a long time but these panels really stuck out to me as such a lovely thought about the process of learning
Hello studyblr!
Wanted to say this before it gets big, witch hat atelier is one of the most academically motivational series ive read. It not only relates to real life problems with academia but also encourages you to try a little bit harder each day. Its perspective on knowledge and learning is very powerful imo. Its magic system is beautiful. There are so many characters who are determined to reach their aspirations and cram magic books for it. It rlly shows the magic in knowledge, both good and bad.
So read it or watch it when it comes out!
Trust me you wont regret it~
