one thing that so many students forget is that, a win is a win. if you planned on doing english homework but instead you finished your history essay, celebrate that, don’t be upset taht you didn’t sick to your plan, at least you got SOMETHING DONE. a win is a fucking win and don’t let anyone tell you different.

idk who needs to hear this but when your english teacher asks you to explain why an author chose to use a specific metaphor or literary device, it’s not because you won’t be able to function in real-world society without the essential knowledge of gatsby’s green light or whatever, it’s because that process develops your abilities to parse a text for meaning and fill in gaps in information by yourself, and if you’re wondering what happens when you DON’T develop an adult level of reading comprehension, look no further than the dizzying array of examples right here on tumblr dot com

🪻04.04.2024🪻 the date is so cute

• I studied Biomechanics for about 3 hours. Mainly just the intro to Clinical Gait Analysis. I made really rough notes in my ugly notebook cause I still haven’t decided how to divide the cute one. I didn’t even try to write pretty, I promise I can do better than that😭. I don’t mind rewriting them though cause I took them English cause the textbook is in English, so I’ll take the chance to translate them.

• We had an information seminar about writing a thesis and doing a practice project. I don’t have to think about those for a bit but I felt very motivated afterwards.

• I wrote a very short card for my friend’s birthday tomorrow and crocheted a headband. It’s a bit wonky at the edges and I just realized I could’ve gotten her a puzzle instead cause she loves those. I’m really rethinking gifting it to her but I’ll ultimately decide tomorrow.

All in all, I feel really good about today. I took a walk and had at least one nutritious meal and loads of water. I sat down and studied without doing my stupid ritual of scrolling on my phone and feeling guilty about not studying. My flatmate has people over so I couldn’t keep going but I’m proud of my progress. And I really enjoyed it.

My boops will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you. In bopping you thus I'm fully aware that I will be going expressly against the wishes of my family, my friends, and, I hardly need add, my own better judgement. Boop boop.

1.23.24

first official week of school. the math may be simple, but i gotta start somewhere. it’s going ok so far, but i know we’re just getting started. it’s only going to get harder.

not sure about my programming class yet. apparently the section i chose is taught by a complete jackass, so im holding off on buying materials in case a seat opens up with a different professor before the end of the month.

anyway, after studying, i got to spend a couple hours reading. im now halfway through the good doctor by barron lerner, and i really am enjoying it.

later on, my dad invited my partner and i over for pizza, which was nice. any opportunity to lay on the couch with the doggos and spend time with dad.

then when we got back home we went out for a late night walk to enjoy the falling snow. i tried to take pics but my phone just doesn’t do it justice lol.

how was your day?
