Bruh the thanos’ed that helmet. Respect to Tony Hawk though.

31 March (Calc 4)
Today seemed to me an uphill battle from the start. I woke up to heart issues and dealing with an embedded lip ring (again), but I didn’t let that stop me.
I managed to get all of my work done, and am now trying to get further ahead so hopefully I won’t get crushed later on down the line.
Apologies for the short video, my iPhone corrupted most of the time lapse
Stay up y’all ✌🏿

Today and yesterday were a total whirlwind, but today was better than yesterday. I got lots done, even if I didn't do everything on my list (because I had to catch up from yesterday, haha!). I had stopped doing yoga as regularly, so I'm so glad I did some today. It brings my body a lot of peace.

Day 15: tag someone you would get along just fine with
"fine" seems like a low bar, but I love @nonlinear-student's posts and I think he's a really committed student. I love meeting other physics students here!
Day 16: what is your go-to beverage?
Masala chai with some kind of non-dairy milk, preferably almond. I also loooove hot chocolates, or some kind of flavoured "not real coffee" coffee, like cinnamon bun lattes.
Hey bro, just so you dont get anyone who yells at you for no reason, reposting is when you take the content from someone else's post and put it in your own without crediting them, or sometimes even with crediting them. Reblogging is when you hit that funky reblog button that automatically gives credit to the original poster, and any notes on that post go to the OP. I just noticed you use the word repost weird
It was an honest mistake. I’m happy you caught that. It will be corrected here soon.
Cheers friend 😎
Conquering the Why School? Essay
From a student who got into MIT & the Ivy League
I’ve read many Why School? essays. These often come across as generic, with no real indication of interest. I’m here to make sure you don’t make the same mistakes in your essays.
-Look up their course catalog. Don’t simply write, “I’m interested in your stellar economics program.” Great, so are hundreds of other applicants. Name-drop a couple of classes and explain why those specific courses appeal to you. It’ll show you’ve done your homework.
-Discuss a few clubs. Colleges want students who will contribute to their campus outside of the classroom. Are you interested in journalism? Talk about joining the school newspaper. Are you a violin virtuoso? Indicate your interest in the orchestra. Or are you into something that isn’t yet available? Say you’ll start a new group!
-Latch onto research opportunities. Schools love students who can contribute to their published papers. Look up ongoing research projects in whatever department you’re interested in (and no, research isn’t only for STEM fields!) and talk about how you’ll get involved.
-Talk about what makes a school unique. Columbia has a Core Curriculum; Princeton has a yearlong bridge program in Bolivia. Why do you want to attend this specific school?
-Touch upon your long-term goals. How will this university help you achieve your goals of becoming a lawyer? How do you want to make the world a better place? Colleges are looking for people who will contribute meaningfully to society.
-Don’t mention rankings or prestige. Harvard already knows it’s world-renowned, it doesn’t need you to stroke its ego. You should be choosing the best school for you, not the best school according to US World & News Report.
Good luck! I’ll also be happy to read your college app essays, feel free to message me :)
All other tags are left as an exercise to the reader.
Thanks ani and @sadcypher for helping me with this!
found this gem of a... poem? in my notes app. enjoy.
morning study sesh and a cute cafe :)
Today was rough. Throughtout this time lapse I “finished” 1 assignment ONE it’s day’s like this that really make me dread going into STEM. Diminishing returns are regular, and the burnout is real. However, if my neurodivergent ass can sit in one spot and be miserable, then you can too
