Wow it's been a long while. I'm in a different city for internship and I will never ever criticise my uni again, the facilities there were so much better than here (tbf my uni is a private university and this is a government institution). My back will not be surviving at the end of these two months but at least the experience will be worth it (I hope).

A friendly reminder to everyone who feels easily overwhelmed (like me):

There is order in chaos; we just need to look at it from another perspective 😌

I am so not ready for any of my June exams but oh well, I can prepare them for July hopefully.

It was 37°C today and it is literally impossible to study. We were also without water yesterday and today because of some construction work nearby so it was even worse 🎉

rain, rain, rain

Friday, the 7th of June 2024

Some days you wake up on the wrong foot, the tea is bitter, your thoughts are scattered. You set one foot out the door and are drenched down to the bone, someone's words especially sting, you're late, and hungry, and cranky. Yesterday was one of those days until I grabbed a pizza and a bottle of wine with a friend. Today didn't turn out much better. Too little sleep, a lingering feeling of hunger, chaos with my work schedules, a real life person arguing with me and telling me to my face that I am as sinful as a demon for advocating for trans rights. It's all been a little much. Every muscle in my body is tense and I long for a good cry and some peace.

I have only one week before my first exam of this exam season and I am so done. Due to the fact that I did not get more then two consecutive rest days during the "holidays" I am starting to feel burned out and I am not even half way into this. After my exam next week I will have a little over two weeks to fully study for another exam and I want to scream. I need to not thing about studying for a few consecutive days but I don't know how. And the week after my February exam new classes are starting again ugh. My physical health in the past two months has really fucked everything. On top of this can I say that I don't feel prepared at all for next week? Ugh this is not how I wanted my week to start.

calm hobbit winter activities and productivity:

read first thing in the morning

daily Irish practice on duolingo

finished my first outloud review for my exam next week

continued writing down the key phrases for each duolingo unit I have completed in Irish

continued my French review on duolingo

allowed myself to stop working earlier

updated my reading journal

crocheted a bit while rewatching the witcher (I am in need of fantasy to escape the horrors of reality)

📖: A Day Of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon (I am two chapters in and I am already addixted to the story I need to know more)

If you're currently an undergraduate, let me suggest a start-of-year resolution for you. Go to the office hours for your class, at least once.

Students often labour under the misapprehension that professors will be annoyed if they show up to office hours without a sufficiently good reason. That could not be further from the truth. Your professor hauled their ass out of bed, after another late night of work, got nicely dressed, and traveled through the rain and snow to be in their office for the hours they promised they'd be there... for you. Those hours are explicitly set aside for your use. Little questions, tangents, help brainstorming paper ideas, just chatting about course material - those are the precise reason that office hours exist. They're for whatever you need them to be.

Your professor won't be annoyed if you show up, they'll be annoyed if you don't show up.
