I want straight A’s at least once in my life, but I find that I don’t actually put in the work to get it done. Often times I find myself doing just enough to get by, and despite being a STEM student, I really haven’t done much in the way of studying.
As much as I enjoy math and science, I find it painful to get into studying the material, and do just enough to get a decent grade.
All of this revolves around time management and coping with my adhd, but THE BOREDOM IS REAL and there’s only so much I can do to combat that.
I know grades aren’t a true measurement of success, but just once I’d like to know the joy of being that student.

Thank you so much friend 🙏, this road has been rough, and I’m not quite out of the woods.

15 March (linear algebra study session)
Today was rough, I was constantly fighting tooth and nail to study, and ultimately didn’t get much done. As much as I love being neurodivergent, it definitely has its drawbacks. However I am going to be headed back to the doctor soon to try and help with my focus.
Just because someone looks alright doesn’t mean that they are conversely, don’t assume that people who don’t look the best are struggling.
I love all of you beautiful creatures

Question for the masses.
What is your note taking method, and how effective do you find it to be?
30 March (the first day of classes)
I have mixed feelings about this quarter. On one hand I’ll be receiving a degree and moving on to an actual university. On the other I am faced with the fact that I won’t see many of my friends for quite some time after I graduate (not to mention the new course load and ops tempo)
In all I’m happy to be back, and look forward to future productivity
Stay up ✌🏿
