we received new board games and they are so beautiful!!! today we have already played murano and solved several combinations in the game with asteroids. i really enjoyed it. little by little, i’m starting to gather a collection of board games.
Be the academic you've always dreamt of being. Stay up till 3 a.m. with your paperbacks scattered on the table and a cup of black coffee, write annotations beside the lines you want to remember, consistently scribble down your notes with your favourite black pen. Absorb whatever your professor says, think about it, come up with questions and hang around in the library pouring over thousands of books trying to quench. that. thirst. for. knowledge. Just do it, stop coming up with excuses that studying can't be romanticised. Live that academia life.

Once upon a time I worked in this little burger/coffee/ice cream shop and a lady came in one winter and asked if we had a caramel apple drink and we were like ‘well we have cider’ and she was like ‘no I don’t remember what it’s called but this place made a drink that was chai tea, apple cider, and caramel’ and Breezy offered to try and make something for her but she changed her mind and left so Breezy and I were like ‘alright let’s try this’ because we had chai tea, instant cider mix, a shit ton of caramel, instant hot water from the espresso and too much free time.
And let me tell you it was delightful. It tastes like watching the leaves changing color and dancing in the wind. It tastes like picking out pumpkins and gourds and fresh apples at the farm up north. It tastes like witches and freedom.
I make it every year now and this year I walked in the house on the morning of October first with all the ingredients and shouted ‘FALL DRINK’ and my roommates were like ‘????’ so I made them Fall Drink and now every time they get home from work they’re like ‘Fall Drink pls?????’
Anyway I remember literally nothing else about that woman but I’m very grateful to her.
May study challenge day 23!
What type of learner are you (visual, kinetic, etc.)? How does this translate to your study methods?
I’ve never really had one particular learning type that works for me more than others - I try to study in different ways, but I guess my study style fits with a visual learning method more than others?
Today - a photo from a chemistry experiment, reviewing English, chemistry homework, violin practice, piano practice, making chemistry notes, music homework, Latin lit revision, and my cute little productivity tracker with a flower for each day 🌷🌟

December
fairy lights and holiday displays
neatly wrapped presents with elegant bows
the smell of pine trees
hot chocolate
mulled wine in paper cups
sucking on candy cane til it gets sharp
dark chocolate truffles
sliding on polished floors
long dresses and tailored suits
iron candelabra
the church choir
stained glass windows
listening in on family affairs
peppermint chocolate
garland wrapped around the banister
sitting in the dark with just the glow of the Christmas tree
the moon in the sky like a claw
cushions and throw blankets
your favorite sweater
dog-eared pages of a classic book

Duolingo recently rolled out a new feature that includes a dynamic list of vocabulary terms as new lessons are completed. I love this feature and its way of keeping track of words and phrases that are getting rusty, but I want a way to categorize the terms based on subject. Until a feature like that rolls out (if ever), I’m going to start posting subject- and lesson-specific vocabulary lists for Duolingo Spanish.
