TADAH!

Assalamualaikum and hi guys!

I'm sorry for the late announcement but heeeyyyy, do you realise what have changed? What has gone more awesome? ITS THIS BLOG!

If you guys still remember, I've mentioned before that I was going to renovate this blog bits by bits, make it even more cooler with more cool stuff, and recently I got the time to change it all!

LOOK NOW!

Instead of the previous dusty pink and messy layouts, I changed it into a simple white design. So that when people come and read my posts, they will concentrate more on my writings, my works and find all the interesting things beyond the dull design. My writings will be the design now.

And previously I wrote on my studies, I just started a new semester so it was about how I prepared for it (not really) and anticipated for my classes. I'm sure I gave certain tips on that post, especially on my Study Planner.

Therefore if you guys look up on my pages' tabs, there is a page I made on Study. That is basicaly to share with you guys the things I use to help with my studies, from printables for the study planner, youtube accounts and videos, instagram accounts to get inspirations and motivations, and also a list on smartphone apps that I like to use. It is a small list actually.

I'm not sure if all the things I listed on that page will be useful for you guys since we have different methods on studying and we are in different fields, But I hope it will even if its just a little, because I use all that things to help with my studies.

If you guys have any tips or ideas or anything to share on your ways to study, drop your commnets below and I'll make sure to share it with all of us!

Drop by the Study page and happy studying!!

I'm Back To School!

Assalamualaikum and hi guys!

I'm trying my best to post regularly, trying to make my bluff in earlier post a reality. I even made a list for future posts! 😁
So this is a good start right? Somewhat my unwritten new year resolution (goodness I am so late 😂)

So its 2017! When new year comes it is always a hype for everyone to start anew and get a new book of life! For some, new year means upgrading school life and be cooler than before 😎

While a month has passed for primary and secondary schools, I've just started my new semester yesterday! (I sound like a joy but really I do) During my semester break, I was doing nothing about college and reading, I was so not anticipating to go back to Gombak. I even dreaded it. But the time must come. Huh.

So I have to be realistic. New semester about to start, I'm gonna be a second year student, there is no way I can evade education. Hah. Education guys! I had to be prepared! Need to climb all that good grades and cgpa for a better future (sun is blinding upfront). Wow.

So what did I do? Well actually I did nothing. I started preparing when I packed my things for Gombak the day before departure (LOL), and that are mostly clothes and food. But I need to get into the spirit of learning! Then I have this one instagram account, dedicated just for studying, named @nurmiastudious . So I opened that instagram, and updated pictures of my books and such, and scrolled through other people's studygram (short form for study instagram , like studyblr). And... it worked! Well, a bit.

Okay my motivation rose a bit. Got inspirations to study from super-shockingly-good students all over the world. And my mom and sis brainwashed me to aim for higher. Higher what? Grapes. 😂

Then in Gombak, the night before my classes starts, I checked my pre-registered subjects and the venues for tomorrow. Packed my things. Update my bullet journal (I just started late January). Watched some study vlogs by @waystostudy. I swear her videos are so inspiring you that don't even realise you are procrastinating watching her studying. After all that no-fuss I pretended that I was prepared. Because I didn't. Really.

I ACTUALLY GOT INTO THE WRONG CLASSES TWICE! TWICE GUYS! Can you believe it? And it was all because my classes started on Tuesday, and I was looking on my Monday schedule. Luckily I didn't miss any class because of my mishap. Dang girl.

However-so, I was actually productive that day! This is all thanks to my own created bullet journal, I'm a bit more organised than before with all my realistic to-do-list. (angkat bakul). But it's true!


Aside from my classes, I also spent my day updating my study planner. Printed out new Semester Planner and My Study Planner 6 sets (one for each subject) that I used for last semester. The study planner was really helpful with my studies last time. I get to tracked on topics of each subjects everyday and plan my study sessions! I got these two printable planners from theorganisedstudent.tumblr . You guys should check it out. She prepared a lot of other printables, but I'm using only these two for my studies.

While I was doing my study planner.


However, I forgot to print my class logs. Because I made the template by myself, so I kinda forgot about it. When I was sorting the planners in my study file, it was then I noticed. And I had to make a new one. Class logs is to jot down lessons for sessions each classes. So everyday I'll write down the topics discussed according to each subject. I got both study planner and class logs idea from a senior in my university. I'll share my class logs with you guys later.

Completed semester's planner. And an example of  class logs.



So that was how my messy preparation and clumsy 1st day went by. But all in all it was all good. I enjoyed my day. And seriously watching waystostudy videos are so inspiring you'll get motivated just by watching her videos! I can't get out of myself her spirits in studying! I'm smeared with her spirits! HAHA

My day ended really early, I fainted as soon as I cleaned myself . So so tired.


Thats it guys. How my 1st day of my new semester went by. I don't know if this will help you guys with your studies, I don't share many tips, but I hope it will! Btw don't forget to check out my studygram @nurmiastudious !

Have a nice day!
