working on my BA thesis
being critical of academia because it’s heavily hierarchical and systemically racist, and saying that individuals within academia are in no way more qualified to discuss academic subjects than non-academics are two completely different things. sjcjdjahe i swear some people think that to get a history degree you just read like. commercial biographies and watch hamilton. idk how to tell you all this but tiktok doesn’t have a peer review process

in my country november is always so cold and rainy
yesterday i went to therapy and to my fav cafe. later i had psychology workshop at my uni, as a part of a project i take part in. today i started my day reading in bed with a cup of very bad coffee. i'm reading "rich people problems" and it's so fun i've read 20% of a book at once. i also read a few pages of my anthropology of history reading. it's not much, but i'm having a difficult time so i'm trying not to push myself too hard.
something that I've learned during my first year back from remote learning, is that when you struggle with mental health, taking up too many responsibilities is the best way to burn out and mental breakdown. I decided to drop out from my 2nd course and focus on the first one, that gives me joy and comfort. It is difficult to not feel like a failure when human's value in capitalism is based on how productive they are. i reject that, and dropping out was like a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders. furthermore i will be graduating in a few months so i should focus on my thesis.
the good thing is i discovered many great cafés in my city and i'm trying to fall in love with reading books again, rest and be kind to myself.
in love
ngl, this may be the most aesthetic restaurant I've ever seen
i am addicted to coffee and frozen cold brew is so perfect for a heat.
i recommended "normal people" to my girlfriend. this was one of my favourite books of 2020 so i hope she will love it
the seaside is perfect for troubled thoughts and long walks
