Seeing all of these gygs is really motivating me to make one but I'm not sure yet! But if i do end up making one I'll definitely tag you!

Preparation Results!
It's been a good day, to my complete surprise! Usually, I'm super generous with giving myself breaks, but today I think this blog really motivated me to keep going! (You guys are holding me to my promises, after all!)

The next spoiler shows a peek of my history notes from today! (which are both double sided???:eek4:)feat. my cute planner and my study buddy :biggrin: I suppose I should have made 'improve your handwriting' as a goal for this year haha, but with just the right pen and just the right angle, I think I can get away with it :,)

I'm currently taking a small break from completing my history quizlet before I shower and finish for the day! I don't know about you all, but tbh I don't think I use it very well, i.e my flashcards have such long descriptions on the other side that there's no way I memorise it, but I suppose if you only need the gist anyway, that's fine, right? Anyway, just wanted to let you all know that I'm pleasantly surprised with myself and will be playing Fall Guys for three hours tomorrow :smile:
I'm super excited to share my school year with you guys!

I'm also just worried about schools being open. Yes, being at school is a good experience for us all to have, but with cases rising, isn't it better to be safe than sorry? The government graph shows the number of cases literally plummeting during/after lockdown :/ Is anyone else feeling the same as me?

Also for now, these posts are relatively short, but I expect that when school starts I'll have much more to say!

samee, that's why I don't really use flashcards because I find I'm not the best at condensing information onto small little cards :nyan:
