Updates in Life/Academia:

Hello friends, I am back from a years long hiatus.

Many things happened: I fell in love with a woman that I would do anything for, and we live with our 4 cats in a small yellow house. I had to quit school for at least 2-3 years because of finances and mental health issues, but now I am back in classes and I am aiming for a history degree.

I am starting a tarot reading business, and I have been reading many books and papers. I have been putting everything into my life and my partner's as well.

Studying with Moon, a mood board, Pt.1:

You will find yourself drinking coffee or tea out of an assortment of mugs and teacups. There are piles of papers and books, stacked on the desks, shelves, and bed. Music is playing Vivaldi and Mozart, their cat, purrs and watches in curiosity as you both chaotically write down notes.

It’s as if you stepped into a busy witches’ cottage. The clutter is not terrible, it’s almost comforting. It smells like tea and coffee. Rain pouring outside, pens found in random places.
