About Me


If you love sustainability, zero waste, bullet journaling, and reading, then you will feel right at home here at WhenIShouldBeStudying. From my blog posts you will get information relating to how to slowly implement zero waste and sustainable practices into your life. On my blog you will also find tons of bullet journal inspiration from habit trackers to weekly spreads. An ongoing series that I have on here on the blog is monthly book reviews. I review anything from recent popular fiction books to detective novels that were published twenty years ago. I have only been blogging for over four years and do it for my love of sharing my creativity, passion for the environment and love of reading. Blogging is a hobby of mine that I do because it brings me joy. I started my blog after seeing an Instagram post related to the topic of not giving kids Christmas presents. At the time I was a first semester Environmental Studies major and simply wanted to share my opinion and support for the topic. Shortly after my first blog post I continued to come up with ideas and topics that I wanted to share and explore. From then I began posting a blog post every week and am now posting every other week. For a the past few years I have followed a number of different bloggers and was always inspired to have a blog of my own, look at me now!
As you may be able to tell from the name of my blog, I am a student, well I was. In May of 2021 I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Studies and a minor in Environmental Education. With my degree and passion I hope to educate on the importance of implementing environmentally conscious habits into our lives and helping to push the United States of America to implement environmental policy. On a larger scale I hope to pursue my dream of building and living in my own tiny house. A specific area of sustainability that I am passionate about is working to eliminate single-use plastics from places like grocery stores. Aside from reading, blogging and bullet journaling, I enjoy working out and making new goals for myself in the gym.

Three fun facts that I always love to share are that I have a fraternal twin sister, I have donated 7 feet of hair to different wig foundations, and I ran my first half-marathon in May of 2018.

Reasonable Dorm Room Cleaning Schedule

Reasonable Dorm Room Cleaning Schedule After my first semester of college I have developed a cleaning routine that I have been able to keep up with. You can read my previous blog post about What I Learned In My First Semester of College . Over the past few months I have experimented and I am confident in the routine that I have created.  Personalize When it comes to personalizing the schedule you could add or take out the different chores. For example I also wash my retainers weekly and monthly my roommate and I decorate the marker board on the outside of our door. We also only clean our mirrors when needed since we have found that they do not seem to become too dirty regularly. Something that I would make sure you sanitize every week would be the surfaces that you are constantly touching. That means light switches, door handles, and your desk. By doing this I managed to avoid getting sick when my roommate and other floor mates go sick. Another task that you could add ...

Bullet Journal Fitness and Workout Spread Ideas

If you want to purchase some of these spreads you can buy the digital bundle from my Etsy shop: Simply Paperless .  I had created six different bullet journal fitness and workout trackers/spreads. These spreads were made in my digital bullet journal using the GoodNotes App.   I highly recommend to use a stylus when using GoodNotes as a digital bullet journal. For this project I used the Adonit Dash 3 Stylus , which I highly recommend. I also recommend the Bargain Depot Stylus 2 Pack  from Amazon.

Puppy and Pet Bullet Journal Planner Spread Ideas

2022 Update: If you are interested in having your own Puppy/Dog Pet Planner you can purchase these spreads along with other ones in my Etsy shop Simply Paperless Digital Puppy/Dog Pet Planner . I would like to officially announce that a puppy has been added to my family. This past weekend my sister adopted a soft coated Wheaten Terrier. His name is Bear because he looks like a bear/teddy bear. Growing up my Grandparents, family members and friends had dogs, but we always had cats or flying squirrels. My twin sister and I always wanted a dog, her more than me. After living in on our own for almost a year she finally made the decision to buy one. The summer was the perfect time to get him because we would have time to train him and get used to living with him before we started junior year of college. Now that I have said all of that lets get into the planner portion of this blog post. Today I will be sharing tracker spreads that are perfect for tracking anything and everything in...
