pretty privilege in academia

'pretty privilege' is the idea that people who are perceived as more attractive often receive more opportunities, attention, and rewards compared to those who are considered less attractive. this concept is not limited to social settings but also especially extends to (in) academic environments.

in academia, research has shown that physically attractive students tend to receive higher grades because they are perceived as more intelligent, even when their actual performance does not differ significantly from their less attractive peers. this bias can affect everything from classroom interactions to evaluations and recommendations, potentially influencing a student's academic trajectory.

the underlying reason for this phenomenon is the "physical attractiveness stereotype," which assumes that attractive individuals possess positive qualities such as intelligence, sociability, and competence. it leads to preferential treatment and better opportunities for those who are deemed attractive.

it's important to be aware of this bias and strive to treat everyone fairly, regardless of their appearance. while we can't always control how others perceive us, we can make a conscious effort to judge people based on their abilities and contributions rather than their looks.

now, there is no benefit in ignoring it - because it simply will always exist. instead, you can choose to take advantage of it.

why people take advantage of pretty privilege:

increased opportunities: leveraging your attractiveness can open doors to more opportunities that might not be as easily accessible otherwise.

positive perceptions: attractive individuals are often perceived more favorably, which can lead to better treatment and more support from your peers and instructors.

enhanced confidence: knowing that you are perceived positively can boost your confidence, making you more likely to engage and participate actively in academic settings.

competitive edge: in highly competitive environments, any advantage can make a significant difference. taking advantage of pretty privilege can provide an edge over others.

but you should never only rely on your appearance to get you further in life - it is only to play the same game.

if you're interested in enhancing your appearance, here are some tips to help you feel more confident and attractive. it's important to remember that beauty is subjective and varies from person to person, and self-confidence plays a significant role in how others perceive you.

skincare: have a daily routine (cleanse, tone, and moisturize your skin. remember to use products suited to your skin type.) and apply sunscreen daily.

hair care: regularly maintain your hair, keeping it clean, well-trimmed, and styled in a way that suits your face shape and personal style. use conditioner and hair masks to keep your hair healthy and shiny.

oral hygiene: brush and floss your teeth daily to maintain a bright smile and fresh breath. visit the dentist regularly.

dress well: wear clothes that fit well and flatter your body shape. choose outfits that reflect your personal style and make you feel confident. dress appropriately for different occasions.

accessories: use accessories like jewelry, watches, and scarves to add a touch of elegance and build your outfits. ensure accessories complement your overall look without overpowering it.

physical health: engage in regular physical activity to stay fit and healthy. exercise can improve your posture and boost your confidence. eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains to support your health and appearance. drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and glowing.

attitude: a genuine smile can make you appear more approachable and attractive. maintain good posture, make eye contact, and use confident body language.

social skills: improve your communication skills to connect better with others. show genuine interest in others and practice empathy in your interactions. charisma and behavior can make or break appearing attractive.

remember! enhancing your appearance should be about making yourself feel good and confident, rather than solely seeking external validation. what you find attractive and enjoy should come before what other people like.

song of the day: the price of ambition-arcane

spent some quality time with my sister today and got some things off my chest. went out to eat and it was glorious. i love mashed potatoes.

research: finished and uploaded my blog article on fungal molds for editing but i want to be extra and make a drawing. almost done with the intro for our research paper and started on the methodology section. hopefully we can finish the outline before the wet lab data comes back.

tomorrow: tomorrow will be a calculus day: i plan to review all of calc 1 and have a tutor review calc 2 so i get a headstart.

song of the day: sticky- tyler, the creator

about halfway through priming for my courses. i was a little disappointed with the poor quality of the notebooks at the store but at least i have something to write in now.

also planned out my new years which helped destress.

sadly didn't get 100% completion in the horror game i wanted to finish: it is about 2 hours long and i must replay it for the zero deaths run. maybe i'll finish it in a few months.

research: didn't get any writing done today but since the base structure is already there, i just need a little more information and edit. i hope to finish it tomorrow but it will probably take a few days, realistically.

tomorrow's goal: finish priming for my courses and get started on calculus review (didn't get the best mark last semester). bake cookies? go swimming.

it's really shocking and sad to think that i only have a week left with my family before i go across the country and back to being totally alone. but i'm enjoying the time i have now which is all that matters.

intro.

Photo Time!!!

I can't believe that my freshman year is almost over already! It's flown by way too fast, I've made so many new friends and accomplished more than I thought I could.

Photo haul of college

I have sooo many photos of my first semester, this isn’t even half of it

safety thingy

Hey guys i normally don’t post this kind of thing, but as a freshman at a new university and I’ve already experienced and seen some things, I feel the need to say this.

on my campus in the last two weeks we had an unfortunate incident where a physic ward patient broke out of the hospital across from the campus, stole scrubs and snuck into the locked dorm building to commit suicide. The school tried to cover it up by saying that a staff member found the victim when it was actually a second year student.

shortly after this incident, campus security got slightly better. However instead of reassuring the students and staff, they chose to bad mouth the man and his family while also saying that the student deserved to find the man.

then not even a week later a very close friend of mine that lives in the dorm directly above me, had experienced a horrible situation that has left not only our mostly female campus on edge but also my friend as her dorm was broken into and was r@ped very early in the morning. I have gotten her permission to share this as she also wants to warn any new students to university.

college can be fun but there are many things that you should be careful of.

Always lock your door: it doesn’t matter if you’re just going to use the bathroom or to get a water, take your keys with you and lock the door behind you. My roommate and I have club that we place one the door when we’re sleeping to ensure that we feel protected.

dont hold the door open to strangers to the building: if you don’t know that they for sure live in the dorm, don’t hold the door for them

if possible, late at night if you need to go anywhere out of the dorm: bring a buddy and stay with the buddy

be careful about who sleeps over in the dorm: let’s say your roommate has friends over and they are drinking. If you aren’t comfortable with them staying over as they can’t drive home, ask your roommate if it would be possible for them to Uber home. 5. if you live in the first floor of your building: ensure that all windows are locked before you go to sleep

I have a few other tips that I will be including in a separate post as this one is getting quite long, but please please ladies and gentlemen stay safe and if you don’t feel safe walking alone call your campus security as they can walk/drive you back to your dorm. I have used this twice in the last week as my friends and I have not felt safe walking back from the library to our dorms.

stay safe and I wish you all luck on your finals

love,

Daphie :3

Starting uni today, I've been trying to hold my tears in since I woke up. I couldn't get much sleep because of how nervous I was, I woke up at three in the morning, and finally got up to get ready at five; It's almost seven now.

How strange this is, I feel as if my youth withered away. I miss my childhood, and especially my teenage years, which weren't too cheerful as I was a strange child, and even stranger teenage girl. I guess nostalgia is a bitch, but I just want to be fourteen again. Time goes by so quickly I'm getting whiplash.

I'm scared about meeting people, scared to not make friends, scared to be that weird teenage girl forever. I can't eat, my stomach's all closed up, and I've got a migraine. God, this is weird.

Anyway, I'll keep you posted, lots of love,

Anna.

Starting university tomorrow. Can't believe it, I'm going crazy. I had lunch with my family yesterday, they're strange people and I've never felt much of a kinship towards them, as a little girl I used to think I was an alien.

Anyway, having lunch with them only stressed me more about uni, like: will I make friends? Will people like me? Will it be too hard, will I be too lonely, will I fit in? God, I am terrified. But I can't stop time so I'll just have to deal with it.

I'm re-reading (probably for the seventh time...) Donna Tartt's The Secret History, it always makes me feel better, I get lost in the pages and feel at home.

It still hasn't hit me, the realization that I'm going to university tomorrow. I guess when it hits it'll be much more emotional than this.

Anyway, love you always,

Anna.

Daily Check-In: May 26, 2025 🎀

Hello lovelies <3

Today is going to be a very relaxing, restorative day, as I have work tomorrow and had a really rough night last night. Nothing too difficult or too set in stone for me. Just a todo list of things I WANT to do today that'll benefit me the best.

This summer so far, I've been indulging in hobbies, which is what I plan on spending all day today doing!

ToDo Today (May 26) 🌻

watercolor painting practice

color a full page in one of my coloring books

begin reading a new book (I just finished The Seven Husband's of Evelyn Hugo and omg it was so so good)

list a few more clothing items on depop

wash dishes

job search, just a little bit

budget the money I'm getting later this week

journal about life a little bit

Life Update: 5/26/25

Hello lovelies, long time no see, at least it feels like it's been a long time. I finished off my spring semester, not as strong as I had hoped honestly. I barely managed to pass the classes I was worried about, and I was honestly so so burnt out by the end of the semester. Like, I think I slept the most I ever have in the week following my last day of the semester.

So far this summer, I've only worked 2 days (as of tomorrow it'll be 2 days of work this summer) because I decided I wanted a break from school AND work which I am thankfully able to afford at the moment. It has been wonderful. I've spent my days reading, taking walks outside, working out, napping, and indulging in hobbies like painting, coloring, and I plan on picking up sewing, crochet, and drawing soon. It has been so restorative for me so far and I am so beyond grateful for this time I've had for myself.

Work has become a super toxic place for me, as I have some co workers that have made it their mission to talk trash about me and my life and the decisions I make. One of them is actually a former friend who can't seem to not talk about me. I've had at least 4 people confirm that she talks about me constantly and it's honestly draining to hear all the garbage and nonsense she talks. I just wish everyone would remember we are adults and we certainly have much more important things to do then just talk about other people. It also hurts, because we used to be such good friends, and I haven't spoken one word bad on her since the friendship ended, because I don't see it as productive or necessary. I just wish other people thought the same, that there's no need to speak ill on others.

I would find a new job if I could, but because I don't drive AND my current job pays well, I feel as though I am a bit stuck. But we will see what happens when the semester gets closer. Maybe I can take a pay cut and get a new job. Who knows?

I will post my todo list for today soon, as today is a full relaxation/restoration day for me. I started my period and had a really rough night last night, plus I work tomorrow (deep cleaning the restaurant I work at, so nothing too bad), so I figured having a full day of ease would be most beneficial.

I'm going to try to update as regularly as I can, as I do have some stuff that I need to accomplish this summer before the semester starts. It feels good to be back.

Going to bed at 1am and waking up at 6am is something I haven't done in a long while, but I am seriously so tired right now. I didn't finish my project last night, so I'm gonna work on it today before I have to go in to work. I requested an extension but haven't received an email back, so otherwise, it's just due tonight. So I don't really have a choice but to continue grinding it out.

It's grind time. With the semesters end quickly approaching alongside the end of steady work at my job for the semester, I'm running myself a bit ragged with all the hours I'm pulling on top of school work and whatnot. Here's to keeping myself accountable and productive the next two weeks until I can finally rest and recuperate from this semester.

work from 230pm to ~10pm 🍕

try not to drink too much caffeine ☕️

since it's almost time for me to go to work, I figured I'd keep my todo list nice and short and manageable.

Tomorrow will be a similar story as today, just working and grinding out schoolwork/studying as much as I can. Let's hope I can end this semester on a high ish note.

My brain did not let me study or do much this weekend and it was seriously bugging me, but I'm trying not to beat myself up about it because it was that time of month and lately it has been messing with me hard whenever it's that time of month.

Yesterday was not a good day. I was able to get a decent amount of chores done but I ended up having a sort of breakdown about some stuff going on in my life, I cried several times and ended up not being able to really focus on anything. I stayed up way later than I needed to and honestly just tried to be kind to myself because stuff feels heavy sometimes.

What I Accomplished (April 1st) 👑

washed dishes

put away clean laundry

ran another load of laundry

washed my towels, blanket, and pillow cases

tidied up around my room

took out three bags of trash

ordered groceries

watched a little bit of Attack on Titan

listed more items for sale on my depop

Yeah, not my most productive day, but I don't want to beat myself up about it. Stuff happens, and I just gotta keep my head above water and call that a win sometimes.

I need to start drastically limiting my caffeine intake. I definitely think the amount of caffeine I consume is unhealthy and is contributing to my heightened levels of anxiety and uneasiness. It will definitely do me some good to make some changes with that for sure.

I still haven't decided what language to pick back up yet, but I'm not in any rush to make a decision just yet either. I need to look at what classes to take next semester, if I'm switching colleges or not. And I need to fill out my FAFSA. But those will be tasks for another day right now.

washed a load of laundry

dropped off two packages at the post office

finished paying off my rent

worked from 230pm to 945pm

I feel like that's a good amount of stuff to have gotten done yesterday, given I really wasn't feeling like doing much. Work had been so tiring lately, I'm almost glad the semester is ending because of the toll that work is taking on me physically now. On the bright side, I should be getting promoted in April, so hopefully, things ease up once that happens.

I want to start studying languages again, and of course I'm stuck between my favorite three: Spanish, Korean, or Japanese. I have lots of Japanese study resources, I live in a high population of Spanish speakers, and I listen to lots of music and media in Korean. Which one(s) do I start with to ease back into it? Pick one? All three? Help a girl out!!

I did not finish as much as I wanted yesterday, mostly because I came home from work and immediately began the process of bleaching and dying my hair purple. It took about 6 hours total and looking back, I definitely could've spent some of the wait time taking notes or reading, so at least I know to be more mindful of that. (I dye my hair at home)

What I Accomplished Yesterday (March 29) ✨️

spent 55min working on Chapter 9 notes for exercise physiology (need to complete them and start chapter 10 ASAP today)

worked 9am to 3pm

Last night, I was decently productive to the point where I was actually proud of what I was able to accomplish. It was a nice feeling. I'm still grappling with the thoughts of what to do in regards to continuing my education, if I go the community college (Medical Assisting) route or continue with my university (Nutrition and Dietetics), despite the possible financial issues I'll be facing.

What I Accomplished Yesterday (March 28th) ✨️

did a hydrating face mask (it was amazing)

washed and put away a load of laundry

paid my rent

wrote out some chapter 8 notes + chapter 8 vocabulary notes for health and exercise psychology

wrote out a solid chunk of my chapter 9 notes for exercise physiology (need to finish chapter 9 and start chapter 10 asap, but that's what I get for being 2 chapters behind)

journaled about some stuff going on in my head (mostly the continuing education stuff that's been plaguing my thoughts)

studied/did schoolwork for a total of 122 minutes

looked at potential classes I could take + other options for switching to the community college here in town

Yesterday was definitely a decent day in terms of stuff I was able to get done, but I also know I slacked off A LOT. More than I am comfortable with having slacked off. I'm slowly getting back into my school grind mindset, especially with the semester coming to an end soon. I really want to get my grades back up where I need them to be and end the semester on a high note, with a good GPA and a sense of pride in knowing I tried.

👑 Quote of the Day: What if it all works out?

til next time lovelies 🩷

So, I might be switching from my current bachelors degree at my university to pursuing an associate at the local community college for medical assisting. And I'm terrified.

I will be losing significant financial aid in the coming fall semester, which is definitely a driving factor in my decision to possibly switch over, as community college is much cheaper here. I'll be able to reapply to my university afterward to continue my bachelors degree in nutrition, so there's that too.

I guess I just nervous about making such a big switch. I've never been the best with phlebotomy stuff, which I'll need both clinical and in class experience with as I pursue the associate for medical assisting.

Any words of encouragement, or advice from people who've made a similar ish type of switch? I'm super nervous, nothing has been set in stone or done yet, but I'd love to hear from people who've done anything similar.

Thank you <3

My anxiety has been pretty high the last few days, and it's taking a lot of energy to keep under control right now. But everything else is definitely a priority to get done today!

til next time, lovelies 🩷
