Hiding from my life in the library, doing writing practise & solving tasks for linguistics!📚

if a course has a relatively long period of no assignments and tests you know a storm is coming

Been pretty quiet on here these past few days. Not doing a lot; struggling to get the bare minimum done. Still being consumed by The Pitt- I am Robby & he is me. I’ll finish the show once I’m done with studying for today. For now I’m glad that I managed to get at least something done…

to do: study for culstud exam (4ish days left), 1x essay outline, exercises on citation, tasks for didactics class, essay for litstud

Spent ~5h studying in the library - I really missed it! Currently trying to sign up for my exams and trying not to lose my mind; I genuinely don’t understand how the stupid program works…

visited the second mandatory tutorial session for my literature class, then sought shelter in the psych library as it has an ac, before returning to my beloved humanities library. read 30 pages for tomorrows seminar & wrote the first draft of a short story - still have to type it into an actual document.

Survived week 1! Everything went pretty smoothly and I’m really happy to be back to studying & seeing my friends :) - will work on the texts for both literary and cultural studies this weekend, and I’ll hopefully also start studying for my linguistics exam (again). Other than that I started taking a new medication earlier this week, and while there are two very positive changes, I have absolutely lost my creativity and ability to think further than absolutely necessary. I really hope this goes away soon because if it doesn’t, I don’t know if I can continue taking these meds…this just isn’t my brain.

so much writing

Rewrote the parts of my essay that were criticised in the feedback & I’m too scared to hand it in. A friend of mine spoke to the ta that does the grading and apparently she’s not the nicest person there is…I’m really hoping I’ll pass on second try. Wrote a reflection for my tefl seminar & handed it in and did the prep work for wednesdays linguistics seminar. Now all that’s left to do is the required reading for the entire tefl module (seminar + lecture), which adds up to ~100 pages :( Honestly? I wouldn’t mind not having to work tomorrow so I can go to a cafe and read those chapters…

Spent 3h in the library writing the first draft of my essay, taking notes for another essay, and typing out the first draft of a short story that l'd written in my notebook. Somehow managed to get through it all without any caffeine. Feeling incredibly grounded right now; haven't felt this good in weeks. Grateful that writing exists. Yesterday was a horrible day; I ended up dropping my didactics class. CulStud exam is on friday, feeling okay-ish prepared.
