nostalgia-baiting myself by using crash course videos to study for my E&M exam

had a contract law exam today!📚 it went meh, but at least it's all done... that was today's setup for the pre-studying :).

next week I have a criminal law exam and a writing assignment - will keep you updated 🫂.

28.04.2026, Tuesday. Spring is progressing nicely - along with my mood. The semester started pleasantly enough, but I can already feel the stress catch up. I'll be doing a lot of reading this semester, including Gogol's Dead Souls and Austen's Emma. However, I'm also trying to prioritise movement and social interactions this season. As long as the sun is out, I'll be fine.

26.05.2026 // drowning in the stress spiral

struggling with the current chapter that i am writing; once again, the feeling that i've bitten off more than i can chew. i'm dealing with the stress by procrastinating, which is of course causing even more stress. last week of teaching and then off to marking assignments.

a friend told me that she's finally submitting her phd thesis next week and i actually gasped out loud. when i had first met her 2.5yrs ago, she had just come back from her fieldwork and was struggling to get back into writing. we will eventually get there.

will try to journal more often to deal with the stress. will try to not panic too much. most things can be fixed. it’s scary, but fixable.

📓 Hummingbird Salamander, by Jeff Vandermeer (maybe not the best book for someone trying to avoid feeling stressed lol)

Feeling inspired after days of post-semester rest and relaxation, so I went to a coffee shop to journal and reflect on my creative goals.

Sunday May 24

A horrible storm is upon me and I am struggling. I feel as though I am sick but not in the way one can think. It is both physical and mental and it is causing my passion to rot. Ancient Greek seems dull, My faith in Christ is dying a little so i apologise for my inactivity lately. I do want to share that I managed to squeeze out any studying that I have left in me. I had a fun little day at the mall and bought myself new clothes. then I went to my favourite café. There are so many new subjects and new things to memorise so it's weighing on me too. For this evening I plan to play chess and drink soda water. I have faith that it'll pass, but I hope it will pass soon and won't return.

sooooooo…. I have not yet written the paper due at 9am tomorrow. Or today I guess, since it’s 1am. desperately doing source analysis so I have enough material to flesh out this paper. Hoping to god I can stay awake. Going to go make oatmeal to sustain myself now.
