good afternoon from your resident med student. had the first phase of my research competition at 10am today. pretty simple and was very general so I’m sure I (and almost everyone else who signed up) passed. currently studying mechanisms of ventilation. will be taking a quick lunch break soon.

last day of the first week back at uni. as much as I love gloomy weather, it’s been reflecting on my mood a bit too much. have a lot of studying to do over the weekend + USMLE prep.

what they dont tell you about adulthood is that it’s startlingly easy to go long periods of time without having any fun at all not even a little bit. btw this causes ur brain to try to kill you with knives and hammers.

Bookish places in France 🇫🇷

girl i am undergoing a terrifying metamorphosis 

everyone's doomed by the narrative bitch let's get you some fruit

it's a little sad that people expect songs to always reflect the lives of the lyricist and not a sign of the lyricist's strong imagination.

you don't know mitski. you don't know hozier. kate bush did not witness a murder of a hammer horror star and take their role as the hunchback of notre dame (it would be fun if she did though)

instead of killing myself i will watch documentary about the ocean

There is no better way to start the day than with a good study session📚✨

Folks, friends, y’all…. esk*mo is a slur. I understand a lot of people don’t know that, I don’t want to be a dick about it, but I’ve been seeing it in fics. Wanna write “esk*mo kisses”? Just say “nuzzled noses” or something.

I’m not here to call anybody out, it’s been in multiple fics, I’m not vague posting. This is just a psa. 👍🏻

Current situation at 1:10am. Studying a little bit of anatomy before I proceed with neuro pathology and pharmacology. | instagram

In today's episode I spent the whole day studying math, taking random naps and staying late studying physics.

Studying in the park + city walk

I want more life experiences that make me fun not more crazy lol!!

Hi, guys! Lala here. We all know the importance of having a morning and night routine, but I haven’t seen a lot of people talking about having a study routine. So I wanted to share mine with you and hopefully you guys can get some value out of it. 

Do you have a study routine too or want to share some tips? Share them with me! 

That reminds me of that one infuriating post that was like “if you don’t understand an academic paper, it probably means it was poorly written”…. Besties, romans, countrymen, if you don’t understand an academic paper it’s probably because it was written for a handful of experts in the very specific subfield for which it is relevant, and as someone who is almost certainly NOT one of those handful of experts it’s not in your realm of immediate comprehension. In many (most? all?) fields if you take even one step to the left of your scope of research you’re going to end up spending a lot of time catching up on context. Shockingly, this is because there’s a lot of information out there in the world, and you don’t know all of it. That doesn’t make you stupid, or the author stupid. No one has to be stupid in this scenario. This is a process called learning, just chill on it

On one hand, I am loathe to spend money on something as fleeting and useless as a tumblr post. On the other hand, I want to make everyone look at this picture of my cat:

To everyone running here for refuge from Twitter since they are selling it to Elon Musk, welcome! In order to survive here, you must sacrifice one of your monsters or discard your entire hand.
