?/100 days of mild productivity
it is wednesday my dudes
and we’re going to pretend like i did not fail miserably to update you on my mildly productive antics as part of 100do(m)p for the last, what, 3 weeks?
i am very sorry.
so, going forward, i’m going to proceed with weekly updates on 100domp and we are going to ignore the last 23 days.
gonna be real with you for a sec - i’m stressed. i have 3 weeks worth of backlogged lectures that i have not even looked at. i have multiple assignments where the only thing i know is the deadline. i’m at a bit of a critical moment here, because if i don’t make it back up now i’ve kinda fucked myself for the rest of the year.
the reason i can be more confident in saying i’ll update weekly is that i need to study - and if i study, i actually have some studyblr content. i have pretty much been doing everything other than studying, so all i have is pictures of my walks and some lab notes about thin section microscopy.
it’s week 5 in the big brother house and lily is being an idiot.
despite this, i am still actively encouraging mild productivity. i will never not do that. the whole point of being mildly productive is recognising that the small things, the enjoyable things, the day-to-day things are productive. taking care of yourself is productive. making progress is productive. the point of being mildly productive is that most of the time it’s enough. you are not breaking your streak of productive days by not doing 3 hours of studying that day or from taking a day off or by doing stuff you enjoy - those things are productive. those things are things that improve you and that’s the whole point of productivity, right?
the situation i’m in right now isn’t because i wasn’t balls to the walls studying. it isn’t because of my definitions of what is productive and what isn’t. i am going to continue to be mildly productive, i just need to be differently mildly productive and mildly productive in a few more ways - with a sprinkle of straight up spicy productivity to get through the backlog. i may have been overly selective with my mild productivity.
anyways, the usual bullet points but it’s with commas - went on a day-long field course ( ’twas wet), started lord of the flies, made a poster about pyrite for uni and ended up on an auction site for rocks and minerals and may or may not have some (very reasonably priced) minerals on the way, walked lots, nearly got trampled by horses in the woods a couple times, got said hello to by a pug, washed up, did laundry!!!!! for the first time since i moved in lol, made a hat for my pet rock, made a spreadsheet schedule, socially distanced socialised, etc.
as always - have a great day, you deserve it and stay safe x
liky
just wanted to share a lil nugget of joy with you bc i am flabbergasted
i had an assignment that absolutely kicked my butt so hard it sent me to fuckin mars and it’s been marked and i cannot believe it i got 85% and i am fuckin ecstatic like honestly something hits different about a 836193747 year old lecturer that you kinda wanna be when you grow up telling you, a lil 1st year undergrad, that u wrote an excellent essay.
got 65 on the other one but we’re going to just subtly pretend like that didn’t happen in preference for this complete self esteem boost from a man that improvved about jam jar literature and shows us his cat sometimes who i will probably never witness again because this was an elective geography module and not a geology one.
sending good vibes for good grades and a big ol bunch of positive feedback:)
ah yes, my totally technical and useful new scale of confidence for content is coming along nicely.
started using sleep cycle again to wake up easier and lo and behold i am a sleep talker. here are some quotes from the last two days:
“i reckon that’s about five... centimetres” - particulartly fun given i had literally said that exact sentence earlier in the day
“30 so far.. so that’s [a word i can’t make sense of]... oh god. i’m so tired.”
“[incoherent whispering].. stuff”
“it was it was it was mean. [mumbles] mean.”
might fuck around and have a nap
hmm just what i needed - a 1am doorstep watermelon
