Some very early stage special outlines in Teeline! I know I'm doing drilling wrong, there's a paragraph on how to drill in the textbook but I'm not sure it applies at this stage - any advice appreciated!

Moved out of my final-year flat this week (and had to put most of my stuff, including books, in storage). But at least the book boxes have an aesthetic to them?

Sat down in Greenwich Park to work on my shorthand today and look how pretty

Is there a morning-after/hangover aesthetic? I'm talking raspy voices, shoes with the mark of a stiletto that stepped on it, legs aching as students try to get to that top floor office, shards of glass in skin, dark coffee, smudged mascara, running late for class, half-finished bottles of wine, the clip-clop of quick walking amplified by ringing ears, books read under blankets, people knowing each other's secrets, clothes strewn across the floor, croissants, toast, the kid who is mysteriously doing fine, sausages.

Shorthand and bookshops yesterday. Hatchards was beautiful and the pastry yummy, so I guess my exploration of London isn't going too badly

Just dawning on me how much I'll miss my undergrad

Oh no!

Had to speak to a couple who's gone through possibly one of the worst nightmares you could imagine. Journalism is odd like that - you don't see that much of the average day, you see lots of the worst days and of the best days, our perception of life becomes hyperbole
