This is how I study

While cleaning and organizing the files in the laptop, I stumbled upon a picture I took when I was cramming for the 3rd term finals of my Master program.


That's a lot of paper and I wasn't even able to go through them all because of time constraints. HEHEHE XD I would probably read them over the summer so that I would be better prepared for next term's lessons. I hope I get to have enough time given that I'm planning to undertake full time work at the same time with my full time academic load.
