I tried to work through the bank holiday, but my cat had other ideas

[booksstudiesandteaa]

actually got some work done in the grad office today & i cleaned my apartment when i got home!

i also gave a lecture today on echo chambers and it went alright. i don't think teaching is for me though :')

☕️ ~ planning to finish the night with a short swedish lesson for fun <3

Heading into the final stretch… it’s been a tough semester but I learned a lot and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

That's officially a wrap on my coursework portion of my PhD!! 4.0 across all semesters: fall, spring, and summer.

It was simultaneously one of the hardest and most rewarding two years of my life. The next three years will be full of independent study, coffee, pondering, walks in the woods, and candle-lit writing sessions. I can't wait!

#100DaysofProductivity — Day 2

so… it’s been a while. (looks around embarrassed)

life got extremely stressful and things happened, but i have been working behind the scenes! i completed a research stay in south korea (first time ever flying long-haul AND living abroad alone! yay me!), participated in some conferences and made some noticeable progress on my phd.

right now it’s that time of a phd where you start writing and suddenly everything you’ve ever read comes to mind and you have to organise a million sources for one tiny paragraph. but im good, this is what i love to do! and this is also why i’ve decided to come back to the 100daysofproductivity thingy. i REALLY need to lock tf in.

how have you been? any interesting developments this year?

see you around! 💜
