late night study sesh 🍵

[motostudy]

the weeks go on!

using the weekend to get a solid start on the week ahead! this last week was an absolute slump academically-- i had to attend a conference an hour and a half away, prep a paper for presentation, host a visiting scholar, host a game night for my honors society, and hear back (unsuccessfully) from all of my grad school application :')

but i've decided to get out of the slump this week and accept a different plan for the year ahead! rejections are always disappointing but I know I have options and for that I'm so thankful :)

so, this week, I will:

write a chapter of my thesis

edit a second chapter that I wrote a few weeks ago

do some reading and translation for my arabic lit class

enjoy valentines day w my boyfriend and galentines with my friends!

listening on repeat:

let down, radiohead

the view between villages (extended), noah kahan

dream a little dream of me, the mamas and the papas

one of us cannot be wrong, leonard cohen

here's to the weeks rolling on :)

Some useful ABCDEs I found.

so was anybody gonna talk about the new ecology paper proposing Ethiopian wolves as potential pollinators of native nectar-rich flower inflorescences positioned on stalks conveniently within wolf enjoying height AND that it includes photos of said wolves doing said unconfirmed alleged pollination (delightful) AND that it has observational evidence suggesting some wolves do like 1 flower and are done and other wolves just get really into it and spend upwards of an hour going between 20 and 30 flowers for up to 4-5 minutes per cluster just utterly going at it, lost in the nectar sauce? because I cannot BELIEVE I haven’t seen something on this webbed site about it yet. it just has everything this site enjoys

Took me until about halfway through college before I realized “study” means “play with the material in a variety of ways until you understand it” and not just “read the assigned chapters and do the homework” and I think that probably should have been discussed at some point prior to that.
