I'm trying so hard to stay positive.
My car was stolen...but found. This is the second time in 6 months someone smashed the window to take my car. It's like 2 door, I can't even afford back doors but you think this the vehicle. OKAY.
This solidified our move to New Jersey. I'm just a jersey girl stuck in a kenzo body FREE ME.

“G'morning babygirl,” Namjoon murmured, a soft smile grazing his lips. His dimples were showing, the sun was highlighting his golden skin, and he looked so beautiful in that moment that you could cry. So you did. You started bawling your eyes out over how beautiful Kim Namjoon was. 
Send me a 🍉 and I’ll reply with one paragraph from any of my wips w/o context!

Day 5- Tag 3 studyblrs that you like seeing on your dashboard.
05/03/21 || DAY 5 of the ZOOMESTER CHALLENGE
It's the weekend- often I'd relax and take the day off, especially considering how hard I've worked this week. It was a long morning though, so I learned a new rigging tool in Maya- the squash and stretch deformer.

21 Days Of Productivity - Days 3+4
Hello! Apologies some of these end up a little late, turns out being ill and busy at the same time aren't the best combo 😂 but I have a weekend ready to get my sleep back on track! It was also results day yesterday for the students I tutor, so that was an event!
Day 3 - Wednesday
Spent 40 mins doing research on building a good credit score and also getting started on doing that :)
Read a lot more of the Oresteia and also Rome is burning
Achieved almost everything I needed to at work
Bullet journalled
Went to the French conversation group for 2 hours to practise my French and it was great!
Day 4 - Thursday
Lots of reading
Bullet journalled
Work was chaotic but most things done
20 mins working on my budget spreadsheet for the year
Not quite so much done yesterday, I started feeling very tired so slept a bit earlier and had more of a self-care evening which was much needed!
I hope everyone else is doing well so far too!

Exam Diary Day 6 - 13.06.22
Hi! I had two exams today so not my favourite, but I thi k they both went OK and it's the only time I have two in one day thankfully! French reading, writing and listening went pretty well aside from the technical issues with headphones, but it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be so that was good and the translations were pretty good! Latin prose lit was also good, 20 mark question was a little open ended for me but it was good to have the freedom with it. Also don't think I ever appreciated how many death threats cicero can fit into one chapter....
Today I:
Revised all the cicero chapters
Read through some medea
Mostly just sat exams and had to rest after lol because my meds are still wrong and I get tired quick rip
I did have some very tasty rice for breakfast though which was good, overall a pretty solid day even if it was v tiring lol. I hope everyone else is doing OK and exams are going well and you're giving yourself rest!
