i'm feeling anxious again. it comes with the mid-term evaluation. i was feeling pretty good about it until now. i received 3 reviews and all of them are overall positive, which means that i'll most probably get a positive overall "grade". i also got some feedback telling me what i should improve and i just feel frozen by the even slightest possibility of failing. that is definitely something i need to overcome but i'm having a hard time thinking about it right now

on the other hand, i'm reading pride and prejudice for the first time. i also watched frankenstein and it was a wonderful experience

good things are happening. hard things too. i think i just reached my usual low point of energy and capability of dealing with stuff and need some time until i get back up again

exciting time! today I've got news that my paper was accepted for publication - I just need to revise it a bit, but the reviews are very positive in my opinion. tomorrow I'm traveling for a summer school in another country, so I need to pack

study date with my fiancée. I swear I haven't dropped out of my PhD program. I'm still late with my qualitative analysis but I started my last quantitative study last month so at least that's happening

this month I'll be presenting my progress in my university. hopefully, I'll figure out the analysis by then. I wanna feel confident enough in it to start working on the paper

first big library session after a break 💻

i worked on the revision of my paper and on a guide for the new PhD students. out university page is all over the place so I wanna make it easier for them to get the most important informations

the heat wave is crazy but it was so cold in the library that i moved to the garden after a couple of hours 🌿

busy, busy, busy...

got a coffee machine. went for a autumn walk with my love.

i'm waiting for the answer from editors about my paper. i know that it's too long but the reviewers wanted me to expand and add a couple of things so there wasn't any other way. hope it'll work out.

hi. so yeah. I disappeared for a while. that, hm, that wasn't planned. I was, um, at the cottage. mentally.

but honestly, I was feeling bad. ai got me in a crisis when it comes to my place in academia. overall I was feeling very isolated and my government wasn't helping. both personally and professionally I was feeling awful

now I'm feeling better psychologically. my therapist is helping. I also need to lock in when it comes to my PhD because my advisor started asking about progress and there's none. so maybe I'm back. I've got no choice hxbgbd

we'll see how it goes. hope you're doing well 🖤

missing barcelona and the sun right now

march caught me off guard, not gonna lie. there were so many things to do in february and it passed by so quickly.

now, I'm unfortunately still not ready to start my qualitative study. I have to work on the interview plan some more. I did apply for 2 conferences so that's nice. I also started to teach social psychology to 1st year students ✨

I hope that we'll get some nice weather soon 🖤
