Dark Academic Aesthetic - Blog Posts

There is a face beneath this mask, but it isn't me. I'm no more that face than I am the muscles beneath it, or the bones beneath that.

He whom love touches not walks in darkness.

Do I have to study? Yes. But will I be reading and annotating Wuthering Heights for the next 4 hours while listening to every version of Experience and Primavera by Ludovico Einaudi? 100%.

A little while ago the power went out. In the past when that happened I would just sit around and try to get the internet working again. However - this time around I got up and went outside to the porch. I just read a book listening to the rain hit the houses exterior. That is till a wasp got mad at me for existing- It’s not much but it’s improvement from the person I was, so I’ll take it.

I really need to read those classic dark academia books asap

I keep fINding sPOILERS FOR THEM WHEN IM SCROLLING THROUGH DARK ACADEMIA TAGS

23.11.2024 |

had some classes today at school and had a lovely walk afterwards. after a facetime with my boyfriend i was ready to take on my assignments 💪🏻🤩

i finished a lesson of AP english language

i finished an assignment and a quiz for AP calculus

and ate a girl dinner (bread with butter, the ultimate combo)

21.11.2024 | today was ap lang!

i skipped school because of some document stuff and got some extra time to work on my research assignment for this class (which i was about a week late with), so that was great.

there is very little until my final exams for this semester, both for my school curriculum and ap courses. hoping to push through, but it will be a fast paced month.

hoping to share this journey with everyone! how was your day? i’d love to see some fellow studious people :)

13.11.2024 |

✅ chain rule review and exercises

✅ implicit differentiation review and exercises

✅ submitted an assignment for calculus class

today was all about calculus and i did around seven hours of math

to be honest, i had ap lang stuff to do but i didn’t get around to doing them because, you know, once that math hole sucks you in you can’t get outta there

but it was fun because i finally felt like i regained my confidence academically after rotting in bed because it’s fall break 🤩

anyways, i hope i’ll be productive tomorrow so i can post on here haha. i feel very unproductive when i don’t post here lol

04.11.2024 | let me tell you, my calc professor did not really let me get an extension for my assignments despite me telling him it was exam season 😭

so it is on guys (to be honest i understand nothing because i didn’t have time to prepare for the assignment. hmu if you are good at implicit differentiation).

other than that i will go over a few topics for my history exam tomorrow. rip. wish me luck 😔😃

••••••••••••••••

03.11.2024 | took some in depth-notes for my upcoming history and biology exams.

learning the history of the ottoman empire is almost as easy as learning the whole structure of the eye 😂

still going because i need academic validation💪🏻😭

hi everyone! my name is sabs and you have found my study blog. i couldn’t think of a better first post other than to show what’s inside of my schoolbag!

it is exam season now and my schedule has been hectic so i wanted to make this blog to inspire myself and everyone and to be motivated!

my bag is a messy place. but to list everything in the photo:

pencil case — has every writing necessity ever. it’s not even branded, it’s an amenity pouch from a plane.

jane eyre. i recently started reading and i love it, already a quarter through!

my crusty folder that has stuff that will probably bend and tear in the mess that is my backpack.

AP calc notebook where i take all the notes i need for the class

this usually changes but today i had my biology textbook.

my trusty planner that gets me through the scheduling issues when i am loaded like a camel with work that needs to be done.

card holder, as i mostly only use card instead of cash.

wired headphones from apple. the sound quality is immaculate, plus it looks more studious in my opinion haha. biased much? but they were like twenty bucks and i can never go without them.

TI-83 Plus for calc class

gum because stinky breath is a no go

wet wipes because i have to have clean hands at all times or i will freak out

spare hairties

keys with a small swiss knife from the brand columbia (awesome little thing that has so many uses)

hand cream from neutrogena — thick and moisturizing

last but not least: tiny box with band-aids and painkillers, just in case

more to come soon!

I feel so much unlike me when I speak in my second language

I MISS BEING UNKNOWN

Sorry I kissed you, I couldn't resist *apologizes to the mirror*

I miss being oblivious

Sometimes I wonder if my mom relates to 'Slipping through my fingers' by Abba or if she pushed me away purposefully.

"are you okay" no my most liked post is about daddy and mommy issues

How I wasn't supposed to fall in love if the first conversation we had felt the same as reading the first page of a book that I know I'm going to love?

The feminine urge to become the best thing that ever happened in your significant others live, to be the light of their eyes, the one they can always trust, the one that made them become a better person everyday and fullfil every empty spot that needs to be filled so if that person fucks you up you can become the worst thing that ever happened to them, to ruin their live if you want, to have all the strings to control it as you please, and that each time they breathe they know that they lack the most important thing by their side.

I'm thanking everyone who loves me here, where no one knows me, so the reputation of myself that lives in my head isn't damaged.

Oh, to be recovering from a big massive orgasm instead of childhood traumas

Not me, going back to Tumblr after 5 years because my emo phase aged like fine wine and I ended up in a Dark academia phase that lasts forever.

—H.G. Wells, The Time Machine

I got myself a copy of The Secret History bc i only read the eBook once, thought the story was really captivating and i loved it so much.

I’ve also been a Henry Winter apologist since i read it. He could push me off a ravine and i would be fine with it.

regulus black vibes ✨

I can’t tell if the stain on my hands is paint or blood and honestly that’s very in character for me
