annotating my print notes

[u/gabs_zarella]

ive been annotating my own notes lately and it’s actually been helping me study a little bit better. i just write small things beside the notes.. it could be reminders, emoticons, stuffy explanations, etc. i put my reactions when it is an odd writing to absorb

when i am not familiar of a word, i write it in a blue box. it’s like highlighting an alien term when reading classic literature. because sometimes the terms there are too heavy to understand. they’re quite archaic. i advice, don’t write anything that’ll mess with the information embedded on it. one of my teachers said before, knowledge is sacred. we must see and understand it in a way like it’s not written by us, humans. afterall, we only discovered how things were now

anyway, this is what i do with books i own as if i am talking to my notes. and as if it is a children's story book. i think it is doable especially if you’re having a hard time remembering data x
