It's currently 12.21 a.m here. I am pulling an all nighter for my last exam of 12th grade tomorrow. After the exam, i won't be a school student anymore. I don't know why but i'm having this overwhelming feeling. Currently i am listening to this playlist and thinking about all the memories i've made with my fellow classmates throughout the years. Honestly, i wish i never grew up.

i'm so happy i got the maturity to understand how beautiful classical music is.

- Imagine that people who lived in these times mostly heard their favourite opera/ song/ filcharmony only like one or three times in their entire lives.

people who like dark academia seem to be so nice, looks like a giant family who helps each other to achief your own goals <3

The dark academia community is so beautiful... It makes you feel peaceful even in the hardest times ❤️

To everyone who's studying with this music: Checklist: • A bottle of water, at least 1liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧 • Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋 • Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones, because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧 • a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕ • Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone , a few pens, paper or whatever you need.⌨ •Anything else you could need, what about a heat pad, a blanket, a good lamp, your pet so you have a study buddy 🐈 Reminder:After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me. You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book. I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too. Remember to take care of yourself and try to get some sleep tonight 😴🧸 (This comment isn't originally mine, but I think it can help a lot of people :))

Effort has results.

My playlist goes from the softest of classical to the heaviest of metal. Don't let anyone tell you you need to just like one genre; music is music and it helps in ways unimaginable. If you're reading this, keep going. You will make it to where you want and/or need to be. I believe in you <3

To anyone studying, good luck! Do your best and celebrate the little victories of finishing some readings or solving a math problem. It may be a long road, but even a small step is a step nonetheless. Don't forget to take the occasional break and take care of yourself and others. To anyone drawing, have fun! It's easy to compare your art and skill to others, but try to enjoy what you can do and the uniqueness of your art. Draw what makes you happy and in the style you enjoy, even if that style changes from time to time. :) To anyone writing, whether for fun or professionally, good luck as well. Hopefully you can create some phrases or words that fit perfectly and flow like inky water through the landscape of your piece. To anyone sleeping, sweet dreams. Hopefully you can fall asleep quickly and awake marvelously refreshed. To anyone relaxing, may you have a good period of rest. Hopefully you can enjoy your time of reflection or decompression. To anyone who's having a hard time or struggling, which I'm sure is many of us, hang in there. Things may be dark for a long time, but the stars are still there. Try to find those glimmers of light, those happy moments or times when things work out better than usual, and hang on to them. You're loved. :) To anyone, have a good day. Be kind to others and yourself. ✨

I've been procrastinating a lot lately and I've been really stressed because of schoolwork. I've been looking for a playlist and this really helped me. I got some work done so thank you!

its currently 7pm. tomorrow i have my last exam of 12th grade. And my school life ends there. I dont know what to expect next. i wasn't a student who hears to playlist for studies and all. i just normally study and go for exam. Recently i found my interest in hearing to dark academia playlist for studies, guess what...i thought i was too late but am sure i will be here again for my higher studies..may be for reading my own comment. Anyways we all are great....my school days went in a blink....haha life is so short and fast..😉

It's late at night, I'm doing my schoolwork in the light of candles, because the power is out after a huge storm that came few hours ago. Everything is so calm now, the whole town is dark and quiet, it feels like being the only conscious person far and wide. I'm a little tired, so I opened my window to feel the fresh air. I really want to finish my writing tonight, hope I will be done by morning. This playlist is perfect for nights like these.

Sometimes I like to imagine that I'm walking through a city, alone, feeling the wind on my face... Feeling complete, happy and free. But when the music stops, I remember that the melody just made me daydream and that reality is totally antagonistic.

To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. 🙏

whoever's reading this, stay determined. life can be hard sometimes but you got this!

I’m so terribly behind on my studies I’ve been so sad and unmotivated but this surprising helps a lot. Thank you.

wanted a playlist like this so bad.. thanks

2:10 AM studying for my finals in 2 days, this is my last semester in college it's been long 8 years, hopefully it was worth it! to everyone studying, good luck!

I do not understand how studying at night makes my mind considerably more coherent than usual, when I should instead be in a deep, restful slumber. But, however, that is the way it is. Thank you for making such a calm, melodic playlist for us nocturnal learners.
