just because I'm done with undergrad doesn't mean I'm done learning! this summer I'm going to be studying, practicing, and coding a lot for different reasons: my job, tying up loose ends of my thesis, and for plain old fun (okay, as much fun as I can have when I feel like throwing my computer out the window). I guess that means this is a CS studyblr now too? honestly I'm a little shook to find myself on this path. no one ever encouraged me to do CS in high school and I always just assumed I had a humanities brain! stay tuned for more emotional breakdowns as ya girl tries to stumble her way through some complex tasks with a basic knowledge set...

Zoomester Studyblr Challenge Day 2
(Why did you choose your major?)
I wasn't always planning to study linguistics (I originally wanted to study architecture) but I did know from a young age that I loved language. So when I went to my university's open day and listened to a talk about the subject, I knew that was what I needed to do. Three years later and a thesis on psycholinguistics looming on the horizon and I don't regret a single thing.
āØ3/29/2021, Week 12 of Spring Semester, Day 29 of Zoomester Studyblr ChallengeāØ
Day 29- Quick! Name your own aesthetic! or alternatively, whatās an aesthetic youād like to try out?:
My aesthetic lately feels like it has lightly been transitioning into a working woman who wants to be viewed as classy š I have always wanted my aesthetic to be vintage-like!
Sidenote: I have been hard at work all day today. I finished my preclinical paperwork and then I spent the rest of the day studying Pharmacology hardcore. I feel like I have a much stronger grasp on the material this time around because I found the best way to study- finally. Letās hope it pays off š¤š»āØ
Today is the official start of the new Wabi-Sabi studyblr challenge from @progressaesthetics. (Thanks for tagging me on my main blog! Iāve been excited to start this!!)
1) What series/movie has been sitting on your watchlist forever? And what is it that keeps pushing it back from being enjoyed?
Okay apologies in advance but... I havenāt read LOTR yet. I know, I know, itās terrible! Iāve had it on hold at my library for forever, and itās FINALLY gonna be ready sometime next week I think. So Iāll get to start reading it soon!! I couldāve downloaded a pdf or found another way to read it, but Iāve just had so many other things to read that it hasnāt really been at the top of my priorities list, yknow?
I'm debating whether or not I should start a studyblr challenge. I really like the zoomester challenge by @progressaesthetics and I want to start it! I'm just really bad at starting something and committing to it lol.
anyone reading this who has done a challenge: What's the best thing that's come out of you doing a studyblr challenge? Leave a comment or send me a message! I'd love to hear from all of you :)
it's a gorgeously rainy and flowery day on which to have FINALLY defended my thesis!!!! I'm so honored to have such amazing friends who showed up and asked questions, grateful to have an opportunity for this education, and beyond relieved to have it over with :') for all its flaws I really love this field and as badly as I need a break from it, I'm going to be absolutely thrilled to come back for my master's after my year abroad š
march 12 2021 // day 65 of 100 days of productivity
tasks on tap today:
polish draft of gov paper
submit paper
complete training modules
spend one pomodoro on thesis intro
it's been a stressful week! between my interview last night (pray for me oof) and the gov paper due today, I've been pretty distracted from waiting for application decisions. working with syntax trees will also do that to a girl š
zoomester studyblr challenge, days 9-12
Day 9 - Write something that youād like to tell yourself.
to the me a year ago, who would be grappling with her study abroad program being canceled and having three days to return to the US: you will make it through. don't expect to catch that train, though. get a hotel for the night you fly in; you'll need it. and spend these last few days seeing the sights, visiting your favorite cafes, going to all the public spaces you love, because you won't be able to for a long, long time
Day 10 - Tag someone whose aesthetic you love seeing on your feed.
ohhh there are so many on point aesthetics on my feed but I really enjoy seeing @stuhde's posts! it seems like we have the same taste for interior design hehe
Day 11 - Whatās something that youāve always wanted to do but havenāt got the chance to do so?
see the northern lights! I used to live somewhere far enough north that theoretically were visible some winter nights but I never saw them :') so one day I'll take a winter trip to a place further north than northern new england
Day 12 - Are you more into plant or flowers? Whatās your fave type?
ugh I love both too much to choose!! my former roommate has almost all of my plants ("yeah I'll pick them up next fall when I'm back from studying abroad š¤”") but I love plants with big beautiful leaves like prayer plants and I really want a rubber tree when I get my own place. for flowers, dahlias completely take my breath away every year š
