progress can come in so many forms.

forming a routine. getting more sleep. showering more often. eating more than one meal a day. finishing an assignment on time. allowing yourself to take breaks when you need them. drinking more water. going outside more. spending more time socializing. not going to events that are draining. cleaning the dishes before they pile up.

some things seem like little steps that we barely acknowledge, but every one of them is a part of progress.

Pirate all your favorite shows, movies, and games while you still have the chance.

you are not a wasteland you just need ibuprofen and a hot bath and a shower and a nutritious meal and some water and some fresh air and to do something productive and to do something creative and to do something that takes physical exertion and to do something social

i've been revising math every single day for the past two weeks, and it has not been very aesthetic :') less than a month to go before my bachelor exams and thesis defence. switching between studying at home & the library has helped a bit, and i try to spend time outside as much as possible.

And here we go again. I took a week off and now I am starting to study for my final finals... I really needed that break, now I'm feeling more prepared to sit down and focus.

100 Days of Productivity [62&63/100]

🌿28&29/10/23🌿

Had a pretty uneventful day yesterday but managed to do some prep work for next week, then I just fell mildly ill so I didnt post. So today it’s two days in one day.

Today I finished the prep work for next week as well as doing some reading and note taking to start my essay. Later I wanted to finish reading Chasing the Boogeyman while listening to some podcasts

hello! it’s almost midnight. i’m taking advantage of this shift to study nephrology. finally done studying gastro!!

hello from my comfort/messy desk!!! it’s now 1230am. i mentioned awhile ago that i would be revising my study method. i wanted to be more efficient with my studying since it’s HARD to study before or after doing 12 hours of shift. i’m almost done with GIT so all is good so far! i’ll turn in at 2/3am.

for tomorrow i have a couple of chores to do but i’ll take them slow and not exhaust myself.

i’m also using ypt app to track and record my daily progress. it has a pomodoro timer, café background sounds, it blocks the other apps when you are on focus mode, and it’s FREE. 😭🫶🏼

I just want to say that out of the +7,028 Palestinians killed, only 13 members of hamas are estimated to have died. The point is, if after all this time you still believe israel is "defending" itself or is targeting hamas then you're not even ignorant you're cruel and you support genocide.

campus is feeling very cosy now that it’s getting colder

sometimes being a Responsible Adult™ doesn’t mean cooking a balanced meal. sometimes it means adding a spoonful of nut butter to your microwave meal so at least you get some protein. 

sometimes it means buying a gallon of the one brand of vegetable juice u like, so you get some green stuff into your diet.  

sometimes it means running the dishwasher twice when u can’t rinse stuff by hand, of using paper plates so the dishes don’t pile up.

sometimes being a Responsible Adult™ means getting your body & mind the stuff it needs in an unconventional way. sometimes it means realizing there is no such thing as the “right” way. there is only what you can manage, and what works for your situation.
