2/27

as mentioned, was hard to fall asleep thanks to D studying. got up, got ready, went out to the caf for breakfast. got a text from my mom asking if I wanted a coffee, so I said sure (because who rejects a free starbucks? not me) and got to start my day with a 30 minute walk to and from the nearest Starbucks and a coffee (iced brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso). did some homework, went to polsci, ate lunch, went to the dorm, relaxed. went to chem lab (short and sweet, yay!), went to the business office to get a tax form, ate dinner, called my mom to thank her and tell her that the coffee made my day. went back to the dorm, then went to second dinner with Sy and T. came back to the room, did yoga with M, then chatted until like 10:30 and realized I had to get to bed so we said goodbye. got ready for bed + went to bed.

today has been great

woke up at 6:30, changed for the gym, then decided to check the hours of the gym because I could see the lights were off from my window and turns our it was not in fact open. so not great start to the day. went back to the room, changed, went to breakfast, and decided the plan for the rest of the day. went on a hot girl walk to a bakery (about a mile one way, not too bad) and got myself a London fog and a pastry. came back, decided to let myself rot for a bit, then had C come over and we worked on the weekly questions for bio. made oatmeal, then decided to film my Sunday reset (apparently a thing I'm doing now) and did the reset. stopped halfway through to eat my oatmeal and then M called to do yoga so I went and did yoga then did my workout. came back, made and ate ramen for dinner, then finished my reset. showered, cut my bangs, did my skincare, thought it was time for bed (it was only 7:30) so I watched studytubers until about 9 and then got ready for bed. hoping to go to bed early-ish tonight so I can have a better morning (and not sleep through my alarm)

M's birthday!!! called her to say happy birthday, then got ready for class. day 2 of regions of the world, this time focusing on South Asia. went to lunch, then came back to the dorm and let myself take a rest day bc I've been studying so much for bio. went to work - had to serve for 2 hours but met the new girl (we have the same name, but she's in her mid 30s (?) and a mom) and then got to sit at the card swiper and "study" aka read my immunology book. also during this 2 hour period M called so I could watch her open my presents (a Messier 42 shirt and a mini wacky inflatable tube guy) came back, laid on the floor, went to bed

2/20

woke up, went to polsci. we had a quiz (85 - not bad) and finished the final draft of our letter from an ngo. hung out, did prelab, then went to chem. lab was fine, my prof wanted us to stay after experimentation to run through the calculations, which I did and then submitted my postlab (it was very relieving not to have it hanging over me for the rest of the week - a lesson to be learned?). went to dinner, then did yoga with M. did some homework and studied for bio, then went to bed

today was not great

woke up, felt awful (severe nausea), tried to relax and feel less nauseous, ended up waking up 15 minutes late for class still nauseous, so I went to the wellness center and was told that it might be noro (except my only symptom is nausea and I've been having off and on mild nausea for a few days) so I went back to my room and drank water - even felt ok enough to walk to the store and bought ginger ale and licorice tea (because they settle my stomach) and ended up going to lab because it's hard to skip and I didn't want to let my partner flounder. found out an acquaintance got engaged to his girlfriend, finished lab, then let myself chill (didn't do yoga with M because I wasn't feeling great), did my stats homework with C and Sy, found out that the same acquaintance from earlier is 28 and his fiancee is 20 and they've been dating for 2 years... and then slept.

hi friends I promise I didn't forget but I forgot that I could both create a post and continue scrolling and I am very deep into the humans are space orcs tag and I didn't want to lose my place

woke up at like 11, then got brunch. came back, procrastinated studying for chem, then actually studied for chem. finished my practice problems, wanted to cry, then made my notecard. read through the textbook, got dinner with T, D, and Sd, then came back and wasn't feeling well (headache, backache, vague nausea) so I passed on doing the notecard with them and instead laid down. then went and did yoga with M (no I was not feeling great but I wanted to chat with her and I like yoga) and came back and talked some more. finished my reading, left the lectures for the next morning, and went to sleep around midnight :)

2/5

went to bed very early last night to catch up on sleep deprivation so I woke up feeling good

breakfast, chem, room to study, lunch, stats, bio, phil. we had another stats lab and I stressed about the stats test on friday but did nothing for it. went to the gym, talked to T about feeling left our (I had a funny vampire analogy) and called maria to celebrate the victory. the snow made the campus look magical this morning, we got a few inches overnight and it was dusting which in the pre-dawn light felt almost like I was walking into Narnia

oh and I met up with my group mates for the polsci paper - they're both from Ukraine and very nice but it was strange hearing people talk in a language I know nothing of (I usually understand at least something - I'm fluent in English and German and learning French, Spanish, and Italian - they give me a good base for most languages esp Romance or Germanic)
