„I can’t do this anymore”
Says who?
The overachiever who has never gave up on anything? The one who always gets her way? The one who has either achieved all of her goals or is in the process of achieving them?
Be so for real.
You could never give up, could you?
Not only are you going to do it, but you’ll do it exceptionally well.
Just go work on the thing.

Ok so I definitely have a bad cold. I was sneezing and coughing a ton, and didn’t have any masks so i decided not to go to my classes yesterday and today — hate missing class this early in the semester but I think it was the right thing to do, I slept a ton. Today I was able to rally and go to the library (to a tiny, well ventilated study room so I wouldn’t cough on anyone), and cranked out a lot of reading and catch-up notes.
Very much in love with my Kindle Scribe (not an ad lol) — being able to annotate all my readings in pdf form without printing them out is awesome. I can also sketch on it, which is amazing. I did some thumbnails for my first printmaking assignment, and am pretty happy with them.
Overall pretty satisfied with how I’ve taken care of myself but also kept up with work while being sick!

Quick tip: as silly as It sounds, watching kids show in the language you're learning helps a lot ! :D I mean, if they're meant to teach kids to speak their very first language, why wouldn't it help older people learn a new one?
If you want to get fluent you have to view it as starting from zero, the same way everyone started from zero when they learnt their mother/first language as kids! Good luck!
