nostalgic academia

- cleaning your room and finding old souvenirs from places you’ve been, notes left in blazer and cardigan pockets - religiously drinking out of only the swirly straw cup you bought from the national space museum all those years ago - looking at old polaroids, trying to commit every blurry inch of the pictures to memory - reading old notes you passed in class back from when you loved him - reading your old text messages with him, laughing, crying and cringing, til tears patter onto your screen - thinking of better days, back then with them (and you) i felt inspired again today, i was cleaning out my room and found lots of old notes and pictures and spent an hour looking at them and thinking til i cried, kind of wishing i was the same naive 13 year old. looking back at my intro at the start of this page makes me happy and sad, even if i haven’t been the most active or followed user, i remember every single post i’ve written and what i thought when writing them, all the emotions. it’s weird and miserable and magical (get that 22 reference ;) yes taysway)  until next time with all the love a person can possibly muster, Amimi

work experience (9-5, feeling alive)

this post has been a bit delayed, i've been so tired i've just been lounging around this past week since its half term holidays (which by the way, we came back from christmas around jan 5? the half term should not be this short). writing this post to get my brain working as i actually put thought into what im doing/writing lolol. so i did my one week of mandatory work experience in a law firm, the initial information sheet i'd been given had described my role more like being a receptionist? i ended up doing all sorts of things though. i imagined the building i was going to work at as being really big and formal but when i went there it turned out to be a medium-sized office with its entrance quite tucked away around the back of a big building. on my first day of work, i ended up wandering around for half an hour being lost and i walked into like 5 different wrong law firms that would tell me the general direction which i would follow and still be lost. that day there ended up not being much for me to do, other than try to read up on basic knowledge. i got walked to the magistrate's court for the last 2 hours of the day and made notes, it didn't seem like much though, mostly because i didn't understand too much of what was going on. my second day was more eventful! my supervisor was on police station duty that day but he didn't get called for any cases. i mainly attended court that day and observed 5 cases which were very cool!! i would love to tell you all about that but because many of them are still ongoing it would interfere with them and so i am sworn to the utmost secrecy. i also got to read real case files and was asked to say what i thought, guilty or not guilty and to argue my side oh! did you know that the magistrates court is open to public? anyone can come and sit in the back as observe as long as it's not a youth case. this post is getting long so head on down to pt 2!!

giving me ideas on how to ruin statues rn

In the town where I grew up, there was a large statue in one of the parks, of a famous historical white colonizer. I'm not going to say who specifically, suffice it to say that it was someone who wasn't worth memorializing for their deeds. And as you can imagine, this statue was a frequent target of vandalism, with paint or toilet paper or eggs on multiple occasions. Now, the local council was generally pretty lax when it came to repairing potholes or other public damage in the town, but every time, 24 hours after this particular statue was hit, the same person would always appear in a Hi-Vis vest, hat, mask and sunglasses, carrying a bucket of water, and wash it clean. They would do it as quickly as possible, but always made sure the face and the name carved at the bottom were generously scrubbed. This only encouraged people to do it again, and so it became a vicious cycle.

Within a year, the statue had sustained so much damage that it was unrecognizable and the lettering unreadable, so eventually the council came and took it down. Also apparently, the person in the Hi-Vis vest didn't even work for the council. They were supposedly just some 'good samaritan' who cleaned it, often before the council even discovered it needed cleaning, so they just let them do it and ignored the problem. They didn't bother putting the statue up again.

Much later, we found out that the anonymous 'samaritan' had been deliberately washing the statue with a bucket of saltwater, which had dramatically corroded it, causing irreversible accumulative damage far worse than spray paint ever would have done. It's even theorized that they were also often the one spray-painting it, just so that they had an excuse to come back after a day to wash it.

cute notes! (on a budget)

so i’ve just started putting in effort to make all my notes in all subjects neat and have figured out the following things: - writing scrawled across notebook pages are aesthetic too - its not just for the aesthetic it actually really helps in studying too and most importantly  you don’t need expensive stationary honestly anything will do. for the dark academics and studyblrs who aren’t able to afford muji pens and stabilo highlighters here are a few tips   - a pen and a ruler (and maybe a single colored pen and/or highlighter) will be       more than enough   - be creative with what you already have ( writing your title and subheadings differently with a lil effort or a cloud bubble round a key fact can make all the  difference believe it or not)   if you really really want pastels and such here’s some dupes highlighters: https://www.wilko.com/en-uk/wilko-chunky-pastel-highlighter-4-pack/p/0481344
