Last month's reads and book mail! I got the new Murakami the other day. It's my first sprayed edge! I was just talking with a friend about how common they are nowadays. I'm mostly indifferent to it, but it's a nice touch for sure. Anyway, the kotatsu blanket is back on so that's where I'll be, spending the rest of the Sunday sunlight reading this manga adaptation of several of Kafka’s works. A pleasant new week to you! 🌞

November 26th, 2024 | I finally have a desk at my new place! It's been over a month, but I realised early on that I have too damn much stuff. And also, no motivation to work or routine or self discipline whatsoever. ✨

24.11.24 || slow morning

It's hard to motivate myself to study today. I'm trying to bribe myself with coffee and videos on colour theory (something I'd rather be studying than my criminal law flashcards). I only have one month left to study and it's taking a toll on my nerves.

To Do:

Administrative tasks

Criminal law flashcards

Write

All the best

early autumn mornings are a whole vibe. people bundled up in their coats and scarves, walking their dogs or getting their coffee, empty libraries and beautiful colors, my favorite time of the day🤍
