jan 13, 2024 — it’s about to get REAL cold, so it’s time to prepare for warm jackets, warm meals, and warm tea. the quarter is picking up so i’ll have to find time to write some essays in between all the snow fun

this is your gentle reminder to stop fighting against your adhd and instead structure your life around it

buy a pack of chapsticks and put one in the pocket of all of your coats and jackets because you always forget to bring one and chapped lips is sensory hell

leave important things where you can see them. if they go in a box or a drawer you will forget they exist

put any appointments or deadlines in your phone calendar As Soon As you get them. set a reminder for a week before, a day before, an hour before, as many as you need as often as you need them.

when that little voice in your head says "i dont need to write that down, ill remember it" that is the devil talking!!! write it down anyway!!

plan for down time. have a few hours at the end of every day to just do fun stuff like engage in your hyperfixations. even if you didnt get all of your work done that day, have the rest anyway. you probably spent the whole day beating yourself up for not doing what you Should be doing, so you still need the break.

if you never eat vegetables because its too much effort to chop and cook them, get the frozen or canned shit. it doesnt go off for ages and you just have to microwave it. theres no point buying fresh vegetables if they just keep going off and being left to rot in the bottom of your fridge

if you struggle to decide what to have for dinner every day, take the decision out of it. choose a set of meals and eat those on rotation until you get sick of them, then choose some new ones and do it again.

its not stupid if it works! our brains literally have a chemical deficiency. you are allowed to accommodate yourself. go forth and stop making your life more difficult than it has to be because "this shouldn't be this hard". it is hard, so make it easier.

nov 8, 2023. convinced this cup of tea set the mood the rest of my day. and it was a good one! i got sweet treats with my friends and explored the media center and realized how quickly 2nd midterms are rolling around (which was less fun). looking forward to thanksgiving break to see my friends back home <3

nov 4, 2023

this week started with a frenzy of panic but everything ended up being alright. today is saturday, and I woke up early with the intention of getting some law review editing done at a coffee shop that I’ve been meaning to visit. it was very busy inside by the time I got there so I just had my coffee outside and sat without any distractions for a bit. I saw there was a local library nearby so I was able to get some work done there afterwards. the rest of the day was so lovely - I got an early dinner at a little cafe, explored the neighborhood some more, watched the last post-5pm sunset, and found a cute bookstore! I found a book written by jonathan sims which I was so surprised to see because I had no idea he wrote a book? I’ve been slowly listening through the magnus archives for 2 years and have become attached to his work, but I obviously haven’t been keeping up with his other projects. I’m very excited to see what his storytelling is like in written form.

I didn’t get much work done today but I behaved like a real person. I think that makes this a good day.

edinburgh ! tysm for all the recs, i could only get to some in the 2 days we were there… the big stuff: arthur’s seat, edinburgh castle, (the audio tour was actually terrible) armchair books, golden hare books, dean village, the leith river walk, torn vintage, a super sweet cafe called grow urban… no surgeons hall or botanical gardens unfortunately :/// but my mom and i did get matching barbour waxed jackets, which i’ve been wanting for a while for the boston weather !

a perfect vacation after poland ☺️

biiiiiiig things on the horizon… i definitely spent longer on this one instrument that was really necessary or advisable, and i’ll probably do the same for the next few, but such is life.

got to hear it played for the first time, too, which was pretty unreal. hooray for finished projects 🥰

oct 20, 2023

last week was probably the hardest week of my law school career. having 3 midterms in 4 days on top of my internship nearly ruined me, and by the end I caught a nasty cold that’s been going around. I’ve never been actually worried about missing deadlines until this week, which was definitely due to a lack of time management and just a pure lack of time. I don’t think I’ve ever felt exhaustion like this before. But things have calmed down now, and I’m trying to enjoy autumn before I miss it.

working on the spotify for this acc today… i made it a while back and just forgot to update it w anything, so. hopefully that’ll be up and available for those of u interested

in the meantime, a photo of me leaving my house w/o an errand in mind for the first time in what feels like a month, and a photo of the view from the amtrak a week or two ago! currently knitting a sleeve for my newly purchased ps vita and working on playlists in the window seat of a cafe while it’s pouring rain outside :D
