The 2018 academic year has just begun. We have made our New Year’s Resolutions and signed up for our gym memberships and have promised Santa we’d be good boys and girls this year. However, I have another little habit you can pick up this year – a really good, productivity-inducing habit. It’s called “studyblr”.

I’m sure you’ve all heard of Tumblr?  The social media platform that allows you to interact with (mostly) anonymous users, sharing funny content, art, photography, experience posts and so much more. Each user gets their own ‘blog’ to share their own content or reblog other’s content that they love, creating a space that is just for them. There’s a special sect of the platform that is solely dedicated to students, learning, student life, and how to be your most productive, efficient, creative self.

Study + Tumblr = Studyblr

Simple.

You might already know of studyblrs because of those ridiculously neat notes we write and organised, ship-shape study set ups that surprisingly make you want to study and make notes too.

We love journaling and doodling.

Especially bullet journals. They’re the best combination of organisation and creativity. It’s addictive.

We have secret, magical abilities to study in very loud coffee shops and actually get stuff done… or maybe we don’t… maybe it’s all for aesthetic. You will never know.

If you ever can’t think of wonderful gifts for us: stationery and books.

And how do we do so well? Well…

Kidding. We are a supportive community that loves to help each other out with awesome studying, productivity, self-care and essay tips.
