i’ve been SO busy! i have a massive deadline for my master’s thesis on thursday (help!) so that’s all i’ve been focussing on the past few days. i did find some time to read this stunner by ali smith + to start decorating for christmas ✨ we’re getting our christmas tree on friday, after this madness is over, so i’ve got something to look forward to!

may 23 — the last class of the year is today! then it’s just finals, thesis (small detail lol) and then i’ve got a master’s degree in economics??? insane.

we had a graduation event two days ago with drinks and a buffet which was really nice, but also a little sad because everything’s ending and i have no idea what will come next (incoming: anxiety).

unrelated sidenote but the trousers i ordered arrived today (pictured) and they fit perfectly. really made my day ✨

it’s going to hit 40°C (104F) this week and we don’t have AC since it’s normally never this warm here, so i’ll guess we’ll just, y’know, die

this will be a good week because:

a friend went to a garden centre across the border yesterday and brought back plants that were cheaper there (i love europe)

i went to get flower pots for them today, then went to the park for coffee afterwards. the weather was amazing. we had to make a detour around the lake to avoid the angry swan family

a friend is back from a trip, so takeout tuesdays + movie nights are back on this week (she can go to the movies for free each tuesday so we split the price)

the! weather! is! nice!

08.07.19 || every day, a little voice in my head says, today's already wasted, just try again tomorrow. and that's the story of why i've been so unproductive all summer. but maybe studyblr is helping, because today i told that voice to shut up and dragged myself downtown to annotate papers and have a honey latte!

my friend’s mom met Toni Morrison a couple years ago and when she said “it’s nice to see you,” Toni looked into her eyes and said “it’s nice to be seen.”

no one tells you how much of life takes practice. not just writing, painting, running, singing, etc, but practicing how to make friends. how to make the right ones. getting practiced at how to be a good friend, a good sibling, a good person. practice identifying when people haven’t earned that. learning to recognize your right to rage and, eventually, how to offer mercy. so much of life is muscle memory, and i’ve begun to realize there are so many more parts of ourselves to flex and stretch and strengthen than those we’re taught in anatomy lessons

outtakes from a hectic 2 months of studying. i’m drained and exhausted but ya girl got promoted 🙌🏼

“If you want to succeed in your life, remember this phrase. The past does not equal the future. Because you failed yesterday; or all day today, or a moment ago, or for the last six months; the last 16 years, or the last fifty years of life doesn’t mean anything…all that matters is what are you going to do, right now.”

it’s never too late!!!!!!! to text them back. to drink enough water today. to get into a skincare routine. to learn the piano or how to paint!! to learn winged eyeliner. to tell them how u feel. to start getting fitter. to get changed or brush your teeth or shower today. to read that book or watch that show everyone was talking about years ago. to turn an acquaintance into a friend. if u don’t start somewhere u won’t go anywhere at all.

this morning NASA abandoned their mars rover Opportunity (aka Oppy) because it (she) got hit by a storm on Mars and it knocked her camera and wheels out and her last words to the team were “my battery is low and it is getting cold”. I know she’s a machine but I’m devastated. Oppy is the one who discovered water on Mars. RIP oppy ily space baby
