It has been a hard time of, alternately, hard work, family and self-care!
Finally, September is here, and I can't wait for cooler weather to come!!! I love autumn and winter, I like cold air, I love to rest on the sofa with the blanket on the knees and a cup of hot chocolate in my hand!
Well, it is not time for this yet, but it definitely is time to get back studying! - I have also been quite lazy, I tell you.
In any case, here I am again, hope this video may catch your eye 🥰
I have struggled (and sometimes I do struggle still) with depression, but luckily I am now recovering, thanks to my psychiatrist.
I love studying and I love books.
My happy place is everywhere by the sea, with fresh still water in one hand and a good book on the other.
I love writing, reading, laughing, cooking, and (alas!) eating.
Someone may think that frivolous, but that's only me knowing the enormous amount of things constantly going on my mind, that's why I tend to not judge a book by its cover.
Today I am back at studying something in Italian... Precisely, I am currently working on the hidden features of texts (either spoken and written), pragmatics, tone, mode, intertextuality, and much more than that... I feel my head overloaded with information I - to be honest - have been studying all the way (in all of the subjects) out during my University studies, and that now I have to recall again!
I love studying, and that's a good thing... Mostly because it prevents me from throwing every single book in the fireplace 😂
...and, of course, I love taking notes too, and that helps me deal with my anxiety.
Luckily, the things I am currently learning are mostly new for me.
Who said that mornings are the best time to study?
As far as I am concerned, night time suits best for me, since everyone is asleep, the house is quite silent (except for hamsters running on their wheels - it's way relaxing, though) and I can concentrate on myself and my purposes and goals.
09•08•2019 - rainy day ft. linguistics and my neighbour’s shitty backyard 🌦
hurt my back from helping my grandma move to her nursing home. called in sick at work cause i can barely move BUT i’m still getting that exam theory in my brain beech
Even if I barely use violet at all when highlighting or writing, today I felt like to, and I think the result happened to be not too bad... Maybe I should use it more. What do you think?
When I graduated at the university, almost three years ago, I firmly thought that I would never have studied again! It has been a hard time for me, so I thought studying would have been part of my life anymore. Then, one year later, something came up to my mind: "I love studying, after all, and I should do it again!" So, here I am now, with my post-degree notes, books, papers, lectures and many more to be written and read. I love studying, and I love it more when things get tougher!
