As a writer and an English major I feel this in my bones.

gentle reminder you can rise up from everything. you can recreate yourself. nothing is permanent. you are not stuck. you have choices. you can think new thoughts. you can learn something new. you can create new habits. all that matters is that you decide today and never look back.

I will succeed. Not immediately. But definitely.

Life of a Classics student

[felixcloud6288]

The most audacious thing I ever did in my academic career happened in a computer security class. We were given an assignment to pull a phishing attack on our professor and then write up a report about our research on him, reason for our attack, etc.

I decided to send him an email claiming to be Advil offering a mail-in service for pain meds. I then stole the source code from Advil's front page, edited the code to remove links to other pages, created a section where he could put in his information, and sent the modified code to the professor.

In my writeup, I admitted to stealing a company's code and that I committed multiple acts that broke the school's academic integrity rules including plagiarism, copyright infringement, and trademark infringement. I also told him he should ignore this because the assignment's main goal was to commit a crime so why should I care about other felonies I commit along the way.

I got an A+.

Spent the day with a new friend in the library (spending more time pouring over recent reads and planning a book club, rather than studying!)

The blurbs... are IN! Thank you to Ollie and Fawnduu and Reimena for taking the time to read my book early and say nice things about it!!!

I can't wait for you all to meet these girls.

How Could You comes out December 17, so there's still time to pre-order it! Barnes and Noble is doing a pre-order sale today and tomorrow.

another midnight study session, anyone?

maybe focus is not always on a desk.

sometimes, focus is when you're hunched like a goblin on your bed as you're cramming the work you procrastinated when the sun was still up. with nothing but 600ml of iced tea and your partner's hoodie to give you solace.

new york is overwhelming at times. But, I will never get tired of exploring bookstores.

[mindfulstudyquest]

it gets easier. everyday, it gets a little easier, but you gotta do it everyday. that's the hard part. but i promise it gets easier.

You don't have to be great at something to start, but you have to start to be great at something.

Exam season and summer time battling for dominance

[felixcloud6288]

I'm supposed to be taking an online exam right now. However, the professor is fifteen minutes late opening the exam.

He's also so bad at responding to emails that we're all taking bets on whether or not the exam will open before class ends.
