my first exam of the quarter is in 12 hours. feeling sorta confident about it, but good thing is it’s multiple choice! which is weird for an accounting exam, but i’ll take it!

also, we’re almost to the end of january! ✨

[04.03.20] ✧ 92 days of productivity

ft. me at the top of Storke Tower!!!

I hope everyone is KILLING their quarter or semester! I’m so sorry I’ve been MIA for nearly a month -- let’s just say it’s been the most hectic few weeks known to man.

In these past few weeks I have finished my thesis (at a grand total of 71 pages and more to go!), I have gotten accepted to TWO GRADUATE PROGRAMS, and I am planning on moving back to Colorado on 13 March. Which means I absolutely need to finish the rest of my undergraduate education with a completed 100 days of productivity!! Even though I haven’t counted the last month into my total, I really want to dedicate these last two weeks to completing that milestone, as well as the milestone of getting my BA degree from UCSB!!*~

The two graduate programs I’ve gotten accepted to?:

- University of Edinburgh College of Art - MSc Modern and Contemporary Art: History, Curating & Criticism

- Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), Baltimore - MFA Curatorial Practice

I literally am beside myself -- I have worked so hard for this opportunity and I’m finally realizing all of it. It is also extremely surreal considering it is my last two weeks at UCSB, and I am trying to complete everything on my UCSB bucket list! Of course, going to the top of storke tower was the ultimate. <3

What’s left now?

To-dos: ✧ Thesis editing + add additional photographs ✧ ANTH 130 presentation notes, slides, and paper ✧ ARTHI 5B presentation tomorrow! Background research, time it out, have a script ✧ GreenTongues conference and coding ✧ Contact Eco Vista creatives team to look at creating platforms for stickers, logo, t-shirts, and other related merch (which you could feature on your portfolio!)

Tracker: 
 ✧ Mood: amazing 
✧ Energy: 90% ✧ Sleep: 7h 
 ✧ Water: 3 glasses 
 ✧ Listening to: coffee (side note: playyard is a local IV band!) ✧ Workout: I actually haven’t worked out since my last post LOL, but I bike quite regularly and eat extremely healthy ✧ Skincare: LOL my retinol has burnt my skin, working on it 
✧ What made me happy today: the sunshine and the ocean, this entire week it’s been 80 degrees (26.6 c) and I’m taking it all in <3   ✧ What made me proud today: graduate programs and literally achieving all of my dreams rn

I hope to send this same positive energy and luck throughout my lovely tumblr community xx

Clock towers

I forget who told me that the UCSB Storke Tower coordinates it's amount of dongs according to the hour. I remember it being like this huge magical revelation, and from then on every time I heard the chimes go off, I'd wait to count to see if they ever fucked up the amount. 

Well, here in Granada, the same thing happens. And just the same, I like to count and check if they city is on top of its shit.
