I was doing problems and tests for my statistical mechanics test... Which is tomorrow... I am happy with how are things coming along, but we will only know for sure tomorrow after the fact... Not to mention I have even more work! It's hard out here for a gorl... I have also taken a walk today, and played with the cats!

Soooo I have a test tomorrow, my project is due soon, and my head hurts and overall I don't feel that well… That being said, I have made a Notion dashboard! I was inspired by work by a looot of people here, so I wanted to give a try too!

And I have to be honest… It's waaay more practical than i initially thought! I am genuinely excited to use it as a hub for anything that interests me, and I can see myself using this for a loong time! Here is how it turned out:

I was heavily inspired by this tutorial, so if you wanna create something similar, here u go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrhFvIsq86g

I still have to make the dashboard for my uni specifically, but I gotta take it one step at the time! Also I GOTTA STUDY FOR MY TEST, which I did 😅

P. S. My board is in Serbian, if you were wondering what language that is 😆

SAT prep.

Listen to me babe. Failure is normal and part of the process. If you never fail, you're not making true progress. You're just regurgitating prior process.

I don't know why society is so obsessed with perfectionism and never making a mistake ever, but that's not how it works. You're going to forget to upload an assignment. You're going to miserably fail a test. You're going to get a speeding ticket. You're going to make your little sister sad. You're going to kill some plants. You're going to get that quiz back you were so confident about and realize that you got 1 question right. Those moments are when true learning take place instead of memorization and regurgitation.

This is why in math they make you show all your work and on science and reading they made you explain all your answers and choices with a paragraph. It highlights your thought process so you can analyze where you were right and where you were wrong. And it's ok to be wrong! No one is ever right all the time.

Don't let anyone shame you for being bad at something. Remember that they had to learn to walk and chew and talk and write and read and they didn't succeed the first few times in any of that. We should be building people up and acknowledging their faults as a way to learn and grow, not as a source of shame and despair.
