Create a 3-page Xiaohongshu-style picture group about:
“University Survival Guide: Things I Wish I Knew Earlier”
Style: clean, youthful, slightly playful, cozy campus aesthetic. Use soft colors, notebook doodles, sticky notes, campus icons, coffee cups, laptops, backpacks, calendars, and simple illustrations. The layout should feel organized but not boring. Use short English text only. Make each page visually different.
Aspect ratio: 3:4 vertical poster
Page 1: Cover
Title:
University Survival Guide
Subtitle:
tiny habits that save your semester
Visual description:
A student sitting on the grass or at a campus desk with a laptop, notebook, coffee, and a messy but cute study setup. Add small doodles like stars, deadlines, alarm clock, books, and “don’t panic” notes. The vibe should feel like “first week of school but trying to look calm.”

Title:
01. Don’t Study Blind
Main points:
Read the syllabus first
Deadlines hide there.
Go to office hours early
Not only when you are failing.
Make a weekly reset list
Assignments, exams, emails, group work.
Start ugly drafts
A bad first draft beats a blank page.
Visual description:
A desk flat-lay with syllabus papers, calendar, laptop, highlighters, sticky notes, and a student checking off a weekly list. Add small handwritten-style labels and arrows. Make the page feel practical and organized.

Title:
02. Protect Your Energy
Main points:
You don’t need to join everything
Choose people and clubs slowly.
Eat before you crash
Your brain is not powered by panic.
Make one safe routine
Laundry day, grocery day, quiet study spot.
Ask for help earlier
Tutors, advisors, friends, counseling.
Visual description:
A cozy dorm room or campus corner with warm lighting, simple meal, water bottle, headphones, laundry basket, and a peaceful student resting or planning. Add icons for food, sleep, friends, and mental health. The mood should be comforting and realistic, not overly motivational.
Extra Requirements
Keep all text short and readable.
Do not make the design too crowded.
Use a consistent character across all pages if people appear.
The character should look like a normal university student, not a model.
Each page should have different poses, facial expressions, and layouts.
Make the tone helpful, slightly witty, and warm.
