if this candle doesn’t inspire u to study then idk what will 🔬

I’ve written my first notes for summer school!! And I’ve now done about 18 hours of #thestudyingnovember challenge! Today has been a really good day. I met up with a friend that I hadn’t seen in ages, cleaned up a lot of clutter in my room, and got everything done that was on my to-do list 😀 . Let me know if you’d be keen to 👀 me start a YouTube channel (I’m very much considering it). . I hope you’re all doing well, and if you’re not.. remember that tomorrow’s a new day! 😘

today after my AP exam all I did was walk around my house in underwear and a bathrobe with a tub of ice cream and take a nap

if that doesn’t describe what it’s like to be an AP student I don’t know what does

12|5 it’s a beautiful day, I hope you’re all well🌸

Hey guys, I’ve been getting a number of questions regarding my desk area and how I organise myself within the space. First things first, the desk itself is made up of several components, all from Ikea, here, here and here. The chair was brought from a local charity shop and the plants are mainly from Homebase. The wire basket underneath my desk is from H&M home and used to store wires and extension cords. 

I like to keep my desktop relatively empty nowadays, aside from the plants to keep me company. I have this lovely desk lamp for *light* and aesthetic purposes. Additionally, I find keeping a candle burning to be useful in helping with studying, apparently my mind has a greater capacity to absorb information when coupled with a pleasant aroma. These are my favourites 1, 2 but you could use anything, tkmaxx has a pretty sweet candle section. If you don’t want to have candles burning for any reason, these fragrance sticks work in the exact same way.

On to how I organise the stuff!

I prefer to use drawer units as my primary storage coupled with a few shelves. 

 I use these cute muji storage baskets to organise the different types of stationery and to generally make the drawers appear more cohesive. The top drawer on the right houses the bulk of my most used stationery, pens, washi tape, sticky notes, highlighters etc. Knowing where everything is located saves time that would otherwise be spent  searching for that *one* thing I NEEEED to study. I’m working on assigning everything I own a specific place/space, “a place for everything and everything in its place” 

I have an entire drawer full of unused notebooks, these stand testament to my addictive personality and my ever so slight hoarding mentality. Most were brought from paperchase, muji and amazon. 

The drawer unit to the left hand side holds important letters and documents for university, my candle collection, electrical items(hair straighteners, charger etc) and nail polish//hand lotions. 

The bookshelves above my desk are primarily for books (both fiction and school textbooks) and the files holding previous completed work. Once the school term ends, I file everything away into its appropriate place. I use these A4 Craft Angle File Magazine Holders 5 Pack (I painted them white because I’m that kinda person) and these slim A4 Lever Arch Binder Natural as storage.Once I’ve finished with a notebook I file them away into these folders as well. 

I assign each class a ring binder and use index cards to separate handouts, reading material, marked work, misc etc. I don’t take any folders with me to class as I find them rather cumbersome and unnecessary during classes. 

I think that about covers everything, please feel free to ask me about anything I’ve not included. Have a lovely start to September and the new school year.
