A nice breakfast and some more thesis work (it’s all I do these days ^^)
Finished up my second day in the museum and got around to meeting all the gallery attendants who were all super nice✨ I’m making a todo list for May and typing up my notes from the first tour in a coffee shop next door

One down, three to go
I finished my second year of law school this past friday and subsequently learned that my sixty-page paper was one of the few student submissions selected to publish in the law review. the editing and drafting process will occur throughout the next academic year and I am so beyond excited to begin.
in the meantime, I decided to celebrate by taking a day trip to northampton, massachusetts. I wandered through a lovely used bookshop with rows dedicated to philosophy and picked up some novels to enjoy under the summer. over the next few days, I’ll be reading slowness by milan kundera, the trial by franz kafka, civilwarland in bad decline by george saunders, and the crying of lot 49 by thomas pynchon. finally, I grabbed a cappuccino at a wonderful local coffee shop and began slowness.

what to do when everything’s a mess
Wash your hair. Don’t worry about all those articles online about the best haircare products of 2019 and whatnot, get in, wash it like you usually do, get out. Leave it to air dry, it’s less work for you.
Brush your teeth. Even if you brushed them this morning and are probably going to brush it tonight, do it anyway. Especially if it’s exam time, all that tea or coffee you’re most likely downing (props to you if you only study with water) probably makes them feel kind of gross.
I know most of these lists tell you to run a bath, but let’s face it, for those of you who even have a bath in the first place, the thought of filling that tub and sitting there in complete silence for a couple hours seems like a trek. And ironically exhausting. So instead, just brush your hair, take a nap (set a nice soothing alarm) and once you’ve gotten out of bed, wash your face or at least splash cold water on your face.
CLEAN clean clean clean CLEAN. Easier said than done, but at least start by clearing one messy component of your area; it could be your floor, your desk or your bed. You don’t need to clean and re-organise your entire room marie condo-style for you to actually have a reason to take the time to clean in the first place. A little goes a long way, and you don’t ALWAYS need to do the hard yards ya know.
I would say read a book, but sometimes your brain is melting or buzzing so it can’t really focus on anything lengthy. So instead, find someone reciting a poem online, and just listen to it. I recommend Jeremy Irons and his voicing of tons of T.S Eliot poetry, or Allen Ginsberg reciting his own poetry (Howl is a classic).
If you’re one of those people who drowns their sorrows by listening to music, don’t listen to music!! Don’t reinforce your pain!! So to that I say, listen to a podcast. If the classic podcast genre of true crime is a little too stressful and you’ve already cried twice today, listen to interviews with actors, screenwriters and directors. It can be really refreshing to listen to people you already enjoy the content of talk about their work. I recommend Awards Chatter and Happy Sad Confused.
Stop staring at screens! Just physically sit outside for a bit, you don’t need to go for a jog or do a general workout, just…sit. People-watch, try and memorise the exact scene in front of you, from the mis-en-scene to all the colours and sounds and the way the sunlight feels on your eyelashes. Write it down if you want to, you could even denote a single notebook to your little outdoor descriptions. Or just write on a napkin. To each their own.
Have you eaten today? And I mean something hearty, something that isn’t primarily made out of air and salt. Something that falls under the umbrella of snack does not count; meal is more like it. If not, eat. Preparing food might feel exhausting, but so’s going a relatively long amount of time without something nutritionally substantial.
If you’re feeling emotionally heavily, get out a notebook or even just a scrap of paper, a pen and cry until your eyes are as blurry as can be. With tears down your cheeks, scribble out how you’re feeling. Don’t bother with how neat or messy it is, whether the sentences even stay on the lines, it’s not about being aesthetic. In fact, it’s about being as messy as possible. Let all of it out, and let is act as a physical manifestation of what’s going on in your head. Don’t fight it or deny it, relieve yourself by both constructing and understanding yourself.

You know that feeling when you should be revising for your exam that’s tomorrow, but you decide to read instead
No?

Mine is intense 🤷🏼♀️
19.05.19 It’s been a short weekend and I was supposed to finish this book today and then finish another one but it doesn’t seem likely. I’m feeling extra lazy but I’m gonna power up and finish this, and hopely the other one too, because I have a final exam tomorrow!
[5.19.19] i’ve been really enjoying having days at home, with absolutely nothing (school-wise, anyways) to do. i’m leaving tomorrow afternoon to head up to DC, because my flight leaves so early tuesday morning, we’re just going to stay in a hotel for monday night. we went shopping on friday and today to get me some work clothes, and i’ve gotten a lot of really good outfits and clothes to wear, as well as shoes! i feel much more confident about going into my internship with a professional wardrobe. i can’t believe that in 2 weeks, i’ll be moved into my friend’s house and starting work the next day!
