finally setting up my studyblr now that i’m done with final exams! i’m just compiling my reviews for criminology to send to a classmate.

hello everyone, i’m nhi aka @qt-pi and i’m a 22 year old undergrad cognitive science major who has one semester left until graduation. 

i pretty much just finished my second to last semester, but i’m hoping to track my progress better so i can cope with mental illness easier and be able to focus on getting a job for when i graduate in spring 2016.

i’m still setting my studyblr up but meanwhile, please like/reblog if you’re a studyblr (or an aesthetics/anime tumblr), especially if you’re in college/university (undergrad/grad) so i can check out y’alls blogs.

p.s. the haikyuu captain stickers are from @howleu!

how-to become a better writer

1. Read.

Yes, I know that you were told about this too many times but seriously, if you want to be a better writer then you better start reading!!! Although reading can be boring sometimes, pick books that intrigue you. This way, you can focus on reading. + reading fanfics can help you too!! I started reading fanfics when I was younger and they were actually the reason why I am still writing up to these days. If you manage to dig deeper, you’ll find very well written fics. I recommend to read fanfictions in AO3 or livejournal :]

Here are some books recommendation if you wanna read:

books that’ll make you laugh

books that’ll make you cry

books that’ll make you fall in love all over again

books that’ll make you wanna be in some other place

2. Keep a book. I am someone who really really loves her novels to be clean so I would keep a book rather than highlighting it and writing it down on the novel.

If you are too, then you should buy a book too!! Whatever book— a small book, a large book, a lined book; it’s your choice!! This can be very useful [it helps me!! so hopefully it’ll help you guys too!!]. Here’s a picture of my book:

It was a 2013 monthly planner book [pls don’t laugh @ me] and because it was thick and the paper’s quality is very good, I decided to use the book for writing/reading purposes.

3. Love it? Write it down! I am pretty sure I am not the only one who find a few words in a book that I’d really love to tattoo on my skin, am I right? If you happen to find sentences that you love, write it down. This will help your writing skills. 

As for me, I would have two sections for this.

✽ When I read a book, I would jot down the title and then list down every sentence that I really like or find useful. Sentences that has a few highlighted words indicates that I do not know or do not understand the word; thus I’d highlight it and find the meaning of the word, like this:

✽ You know how sometimes you read something from somewhere and you like it and you really wanna jot it down? As for me, I would place those sentences under #COMPILATION.

3. Don’t understand? Write it down! I know that this can be exhausting and all, but trust me, this will help you a lot [I say this a lot haven’t I]!!! You may be thinking, ‘Ah, I do not know the meaning of this, I’m just gonna search the dictionary and not write it down’ NO!! Of course you will know the meaning, but it doesn’t mean you’ll remember it, don’t you? Besides, you can always refer back to your book if you do not remember the word!! (◕‿◕✿)

4. Learn new word everyday.

or here (•̪┌┐•̪) ♥  

5. Start writing. Obviously, if you want to become a better writer, why would you just laze around?! Open your microsoft word [or note, if you’re using apple] and begin to type! I’m sure you have a plot in your head; who the hell cares if it’s not planned? Just write it! You don’t have to begin with an introduction, you can start writing from a scene of the story you want to write. If you’re satisfied with your writing, save it— you might want to read and edit it again in the future. **For those who are very serious in becoming a writer, then of course you guys have to plan everything first. You don’t want to have writer’s block!!

6. Start now. What are you waiting for?? You can do this, I believe in you!!! (๑و•̀Δ•́)و + if you are feeling demotivated, click here :]
