went to a starbies to work on my essay with a. few friends (don’t mind how bad it is — it’s my “shit draft!”), and then did some more work on the go.

To-Do List || Wednedsay, Aug 23rd

☑ (Colloquium) The Ancient Novel ☑ Advanced Readings in Latin ☑ Read Satyrica sections 1-11 ☑ Finish translating Aeneid lines 15-30 ☑ Work 5 hours ☑ Work Call during lunch ☑ Start translating Iliad lines 8-21

Lots on my plate today. I dropped one class yesterday and replaced it with an online class so I will probably work on that, too. I just realized that my notebook for the semester is 3 subject but that's okay, I can take those notes on my laptop. I also already have all the grammar and syntax done for the aeneid translation, i literally just have to put it together!

✨em-istry intro post✨

welcome to my little corner of studyblr!

i’m definitely not new here, but i can never seem to keep my blog on track, so i just tend to linger

✨about me✨

my name is em (she/they)

i’m doing a double major in religious studies and medieval & early modern studies

my areas of interest are marian doctrine and devotion in the middle ages, medieval christian mysticism in women, and medieval to renaissance christian art

i’ve cycled through about 8 different majors, ranging from musical theatre, political science, chemistry, and classics (to name a few)

in the future, i would love to work in a library or in an archival setting. i love books and old things, that would be my dream job

my favourite band is fleetwood mac — i worship at the altar of stevie nicks

I’m also a huge fan of florence + the machine, ghost, david bowie, ac/dc, and bts

my favourite movies are the da vinci code trilogy (robert langdon is my idol), and the mcu movies (emphasis on captain america winter soldier and iron man)

i’d love to make more studyblr mutuals, so feel free to reach out any time!! i also love getting asks in my inbox, so please make my day sometime and say hello or ask me anything!

what am i even doing with my lifeeeeeeeeeaaaa

[briechyne]

Cigarette smoke and old books. Faded sketches and rain-soaked streets. The poetry of solitude written in sepia tones.

feeling like greek is not for me. sue me, im a latinist.

[transbutchblues]

i’m tired of failing classes that i find interesting, just because the things we need to know are not things my brain can learn. i still haven’t found a method to learn history in a way that works for uni. and my executive dysfunction is not helping, end-of-term exams are killing me (current daily routine is 1) not sleeping 2) sobbing during every exam)

latin and greek are saving me though !! i’ll definitely pass my semester but probably not with grades as good as i need (16/20). i just can’t manage to do well in roman history and i feel so ashamed about it because it’s interesting ! i like it ! usually i only struggle that much with classes that i don’t like.

anyway i just submitted an essay (short, only 4500 words and that’s already more than what was asked of us) on the imperial cult from Augustus to Domitian and hopefully i’ll get ONE good grade thanks to this. because i worked quite effectively and it’s the kind of work i’m able to do, what i struggle with are in-class exams (which represent 85% of exams in this class)

the more you study cicero´s life the more you realize he definitely had it coming. possibly more so than caesar. in fact im surprised it took so long for someone to finally murder him.
