Tuesday already but I still have this week off. However, I'll have to start working a bit today as there's a pile of exams to grade and some classes to plan waiting for me. My plan is to do something during the day and work 1-2 hours each night. That way it'll still feel like vacation.
To do for today:
- get an overview of the things I have to do before school starts
- prepare one exam
- grading

Coffee this morning - reading ‘On writing well’ by William Zinsser.
Watched a webinar on GI pathologies and pulmonary fibrosis.
Did some data/SQL review.
Had a chill day with my sister to make up for this hellish week.
Didn't manage to study MOM or complete the CompSec notes, the report I submitted for PosGeo was an absolute -100, and I have to go to uni on Sunday to try and get something done for the MOM project. So yay ಥ‿ಥ
I'm alive though, and yesterday I tried on dresses I never would have tried on before, I ate a bagel at a trendy place, and I had some greek yoghurt with granola at this posh brunch place. Browsed some legos and books, and bought my sister her presents for her birthday. So idk, maybe it's not all about uni and getting good grades or living up to a certain arbitrary standard. I need to be okay with failing, and I need to know life can be good regardless.

Studied at a few different places this week; sometimes a change of scenery works wonders for my productivity 🤩🤍☕️
a new crochet project that i'm working on when not studying phonetics. my exam is in 3 days and at this point i'm just begging the universe to let me pass this class.
13/100 days of productivity
i am slowly getting my head above water, not only by getting things done but by realizing people don't secretly hate me (i know but be patient i only realized this yesterday)

officially finished the spring term :>
I have a little more than a week until summer term starts and I’ll be taking intro to chemistry and continuing my piano lessons. I’ve also been volunteering at a plant nursery over the past month and I might also continue that through the summer :}
This is temporary. You have not stagnated. You are not a failure. You will heal, you will recover, you will have a beautiful life. It is waiting for you.
