A late Valentine's comic for Shadikal nation! 🧡🖤
Actually my girlfriend is wizard president so I can do whatever I want forever
look: the right people will get it. the right people will see you and appreciate you for the person that you are. the right people won’t require you to dilute, censor, or edit yourself in order to be worthy of their time and affection. you don’t need to waste your time on people who are committed to misunderstanding youÂ

This may be a vague question but, how can i give my life structure after school ends? I work best when im forced to follow a routine, deadlines etc and being “free” makes me lazier and unsatisfied because of that. I want to keep learning, reading, working out and generally improving myself but i dont know how to stay motivated and set my own goals
1. Make a Routine. As you said, routines motivate you and help you to achieve goals and feel productive. Just because school has ended doesn’t mean your routine has to stop. Keep waking up at the same time in the morning and chunk your activities throughout your day as you would if you were still in school.
2. Find Your Hobbies. If you have hobbies already or are wanting to try out something new, schedule time in your day to do so. If you like to read, set aside an hour in your routine to read. If you want to learn how to knot, set aside a time in your routine to watch some knitting techniques on YouTube.
3. Work Out. Add working out at the gym or at home to your routine. I like going to the gym for an hour and a half or so. Add it to your routine.
4. Learn Self Defense. It’s never too late to learn some good ole self defense techniques, no matter who you are. See if your local gym offers some classes.
5. Get a Job or Internship. If you don’t have a summer job, look around your area for places that’ll be hiring in the summer. Fast food, retail, movie theatres, bowling alleys, skating rinks, libraries, etc. See if local colleges are offering internships and apply for any that might interest you or are related to your degree if you’re in college.
6. Volunteer. Volunteering makes you feel good and it’s good for your community. See if local animal shelters or nursing homes are taking volunteers.
7. Take Summer Classes. See if you’d be interested in taking summer classes and your local community college or even online. Learn something that you’re interested in or something that will look good on a resume. Learning to code, learning a second language, and learning how to use all of the MS Office Suite applications are all good options.
7. Take Day Trips. Take a day or a half a day to go somewhere that you’ve never been. It doesn’t have to be in another country or even another state. It can be a local restaurant you’ve never been to or a town you’ve only ever driven through. Drive until something catches your eye.
8. Hang Out With Friends. Obviously, the summer is about spending time with people you care about. Remember to spend time with your friends and family. And remember to keep everything within your routine so you’ll feel as productive as possible!
Good luck xx
“who hurt you?” bro all these assignments
seeing a black cat is actually good luck because then you get to see a cat
first i review what i’d learned most recently (this is usually quick, but i say everything out loud and repeat terms/concepts i don’t understand)
I do this by either rewriting the notes (handwritten), flashcards, or by going through the study sheet provided (this won’t always be given)
second i work on any essays/assignments that i have to do, priority goes to those due the soonest or the ones that are the most difficult
finally i review for any upcoming tests/labs that i may have, priority goes to those that occur the soonest or are the most difficult (i do this by reviewing my notes, flashcards, power points, studying with friends, or using a study guide)
TIPS
Ask classmates questions about the topic, don’t be afraid of looking dumb - they are in the same position as you
If you didn’t get a study guide, make one yourself! It can be a great study tool, maybe even more effective than one created by a teacher
Don’t cram. Just, don’t.
