end of semester update

2nd year of college done! finals season got pretty gnarly but i made it through with decent enough grades. one class’ final grade came down to my pop quiz grades, which were not so hot, but at least i’m finally done with all the math classes, and will finally get into some actual astro classes next fall. juries went well, i think my best so far. i played arlequin by cahuzac, and while i kind of hated it at the beginning, i grew to really like the piece and appreciate its quirks.

summer plans are coming to fruition now, with 2 research jobs, a class, and LSAT prep! i took my first timed practice today as a diagnostic, and got a 166!! i’m so stoked about that and excited to really dive into studying this summer. combining the vast amount of time i have to prep and the baseline i seem to be starting at, i’m really hoping that a 175 will be in store.

yay!

it’s honestly kinda sad how academia is framed so goal oriented rather than for the joy of learning, wish i had known that sooner

personal win today: went to a sit down cafe solo and didn’t feel awkward dining alone. the latte was delicious too. cinnamon honey i think it was.

got some homework done quickly there before i went to my haircut!

good day overall. good to practice being on my own and being happy in my own company : )
