“If a painting really works down in your heart and changes the way you see, and think, and feel, you don’t think, ‘oh, I love this picture because it’s universal.’ ‘I love this painting because it speaks to all mankind.’ That’s not the reason anyone loves a piece of art. It’s a secret whisper from an alleyway. Psst, you. Hey kid. Yes you.”
Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch
an exhibit of my two greatest weaknesses: books and desserts. in related news, my best friend is moving into my apartment, which means i now have a cafe-hopping buddy! 2020 is off to a great start ✨
mayhaps the lady's love for eating cinnamon rolls, reading poetry, and eating cinnamon rolls while reading poetry doth border on the extreme
celebrated completing the first draft of my thesis by going on a day trip to the university of michigan, ann arbor (ft. the law library + blueberry pancakes with lemon crema)
highlights from my week // day vs. night
when i’m not out and about eating italian pastries, you can find me (ft. matcha lattes) working on my thesis in the law library

worked on my paper on hegel’s dialectics, which involved reviewing the reading, creating an outline, meeting with my professor, reviewing the reading again, reading other philosophy papers, reviewing the reading a third time, and creating a second (more concise) outline. hopefully i’ll get to writing the actual draft of my paper soon!

borrowed a book from the art library for the first time today because my advisor wanted me to look at the aesthetics of british gardens in the early 19th century. she told me that the next few weeks will be crucial in shaping the results of my thesis review in december, so i need to make sure that i stay motivated for the rest of the semester.
some goals for tomorrow: wake up early to finish some bourdieu readings before class; review econometrics concepts; hunt down a couple books on milton’s paradise lost at the library for my thesis research
