26.04.2024 || I am writing my masters thesis and everyday I'm more and more concerned I won't finish it on time but my supervisor is all calm and says there's plenty of time left and I bet we'll submit it on the last day 😂

And also this hearts water bottle I bought for cheap in Tiger is my most treasured possession now, I love pink and red together and hearts pattern is the cherry on top!

27.04.2024 // I read halfway through Kate Eichhorn'sThe Archival Turn in Feminism: Outrage in Order while soaking up the sun in the deck.

Eichhorn's seminal work on feminist archives of feminist organising and feminist archiving practices is quite useful to me. But it always amazes me how scholars theorising from and about the West use such universalising and generalising language.The Archival Turn is about specific zines and other cultural materials produced by girls and young women in the US. Yet, due to the title, one might think that there was an archival turn in Feminism™ across geographical, sociocultural and political contexts at the same time.

27/04/24 || Saturday

The clouds have been extremely beautiful lately (even if there were right after two borderline hurricanes in the last three days) and it's been nice walking in the evening. Reading about B. R. Ambedkar for a course and god...I had been one of the people who complained about "general" students not receiving benefits and seats in colleges/jobs and I seriously did not know the extent to atrocities committed...it's a little shameful to admit how utterly ignorant I had been just a few years ago.

re-starting 100 days of productivity

last time i made a promise to myself that i would do 100 days of productivity (march 9). i broke that promise, only posting consistently for 14 days.

and i think it was because of these things.

i had too many non-negotiables, which made starting each day overwhelming

i didn't let posting become a habit, and gave up when it got hard

i was focusing on achieving 100 days when i was still only a couple days in. i need to simply focus on the days around me--getting better than i was yesterday, and setting myself up for tomorrow.

and so, here are my new non-negotiables:

daily posts and that means posts that i write on the day! not scheduled posts!

eating wholesome foods that are good for my mind and body

maintaining the habits that i have built of: study, sleep, stretching and training

i'm going to begin today. good luck me, i guess.

24.04.2024 // slowly becoming one with this desk. the wires bother me a lot so i've sought advice from a friend on how to organise them better. hopefully, they'll stop looking like such dump. a colleague also donated her french press to the office, which means that i don't have to spend $10 on coffee everyday because frankly, that is utterly absurd and I had, in fact, stopped drinking coffee for a while. but can't do without that caffeine; it keeps me functioning.

112 Days of Uni [37/112]

🌒23/04/24🌔

Started working on my presentation and graphics that I need to do by tomorrow, it’s not as much as it looks but it can be really tedious. I had remote class today so I was able to use that time to work while listening to it

The week started in a very stressful way, so much so that I decided to skip class today. Yesterday was really too much for me with my commute and everything, and at the end of the day I am not missing anything too important with today's lecture. I took this as a way to start working for my English lit exam. I realized I had a pretty big block with it, I just couldn't bring myself to do stuff for this exam because it makes me very nervous (especially writing a paper for it). I decided to start with easy approachable tasks in order to get started and so far it's working. My paper will be on The Merchant Of Venice, which means that I need to reread the play and annotate the useful passages, but before I do that I wanted to write in pen all the annotations I originally wrote in pencil. So this was my main task of the day. Tomorrow I will start my first reread of the play, and once I am done with that I will plan the next move. I feel like this is the best way for me to approach a task that scares me. Just break it down in much smaller tasks and start on the easier ones.

productivity:

read first thing in the morning

small plan of my tasks for the next few days

rewrote in pen my book annotations

run some errands with my mum

updated my reading journal

Irish on duolingo

Just a little picture of my notes, trying hard to study for an exam i don’t even know I’m going to apply for.

Some facts about me:

Currently a dental student.

Studying for an exam. This exam is for when I graduate, I want to become a surgeon, more specifically a maxillofacial one.

English is not my first language. As you can see 😛

Female.

#gosh your notes are so pretty!!! #queueue #good luck on your exams!

all day today I was doing an assignment on astronomical exercises where I had to make a star map of any object. I made a map of the open star cluster Beehive M44

I'm very tired, but I like the result and I want to print this and hang it above my desk

my motivation fluctuates a lot but lately my daily mantra of "i can do it i can do it i can do it" kinda helped tbh

23.04.2024 // some affect theory and writing on a fairly warm day. i'm taking it slow this week, mostly because i feel lazy and kind of...blah.

affect always escapes any attempt to explain or understand it because it lies outside of language or cognition. perhaps that explains why affect seems so vague and abstract. im trying to figure out if affect theory will be useful for my research but I won't pursue it if it continues to be beyond my grasp.

just got out of the shower. clean clothes. freshly washed hair. moisturized skin. some hot tea. soft lights. ready to start my late-afternoon study session. is this happiness?

#it surely is!

#boost #I hate studying fr #idk why I am in physics but yeah #I don't see myself in anything else either

[studyblr-perhaps]

you just need to start. start that movement. start that friendship. start to create. start with what you love. start with what you need. start that routine. start that assignment. start that message. start that study. start with yourself. start now. and i promise everything else you want will start organically like magic.
