Student Turns Her Exam Notes into a Unique Recreation of Van Gogh’s Starry Night

Well hello there! You're looking good today. You must have had a good starry night's sleep, what? Bet you're ready for a resoundingly refreshing mug of coffee and a virtual treat...? Why not! And speaking of starry nights...

Anthropology sophomore Van Truong recently combined art and biology in an effort to ace her final exam in December. While most of her college mates used lists and flashcards to memorize stuff, Van used a whiteboard to write out all her notes in the form of ‘Starry Night’, Van Gogh’s famous masterpiece.

“I knew I had to study for this exam, and I knew I’d be writing on this whiteboard for hours,” she said. “So I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I did it in a form where people didn’t know how to feel about it?’”

So when she got to Smathers Library on the University of Florida’s Gainesville campus, she started to write down all her notes with the words forming a replica of Van Gogh’s iconic painting. Three hours later, the masterpiece was complete.

Very creative. I am not sure if it helped but let's hope it did. Any method that helps people to remember things is a good one. 

A good what?

See ya, eh!
