continuing on with revamping my desk, i picked up a desk mat because i honestly hate looking at the ugly water stains on my desk. i realised the hard way that i gotta stop putting pressed foliage in my journal 🥲

scenes from a visit to my favorite off-campus cafe

27 APRIL 2024 | 74/100 DAYS OF PRODUCTIVITY

got to visit my favorite off-campus cafe! it's a 30 minute bus ride from my apartment and doesn't have great wifi, but the trek is always worth it

got through content revision for 3 chapters of human physiology for my exam on tuesday

was at the cafe from 11am-5pm

came home, did some chores around the apartment, and got ready for my friend's 21st birthday party! bc work-life balance

I honestly can't wait to get back to uni, I don't know what I'm gonna do for the rest of the holidays... I've really gotta have my nose to the grindstone this year and especially this semester so I got some physical textbooks and revamped my desk a bit to motivate me.

messy morning desk / audio mixing between classes

01 FEBRUARY 2024 | 40/100 DAYS OF PRODUCTIVITY

morning class was canceled, so i had a nice breakfast of toast + hot honey in the morning

went to office hours for my research course to talk about my topic, it was super clarifying and helpful, and i’m excited to dive into it

had a class at noon, which was the discussion section for my sociology class

discussed my topic in my actual research course, and the initial feedback from people in the class was really encouraging, they seemed interested in it, and a few people even started talking about their personal connections to the topic, which is super exciting

went to ballet class (my first one back this semester)!

icky mental health hit me like a truck at the end of the day, so taking it easy and giving myself a treat

friendly reminder that masking in public is an act of love!!

lunchtime bio and sushi / billy at sunset

04 FEBRUARY 2024 | 43/100 DAYS OF PRODUCTIVITY

woke up sooo late, but i was having a really weird dream that i can't remember the specifics of, but tom holland was in it as the antagonist

leftover sushi from last night for lunch while i finished a 75-question pset for physiology

went to choir practice for the cultural show i'm gonna be part of

sunday reset! went grocery shopping and am washing my sheets

now slogging away at the endless readings for my other classes

wearing a mask in public is an act of love!!

🎧: voulez-vouz - abba (best abba album, u can't change my mind) 📚: confederates in the attic - tony horwitz (26%); the body in pain - elaine scarry (9%)

i had a friend make a joke about the "light reading" i'm doing, and she was so real for that, reading one book about neo-confederates and one about war/torture/pain is making for some real "light reading"

monthly reset / late night studying essentials

10 FEBRUARY 2024 | 49/100 DAYS OF PRODUCTIVITY

dance practice for my cultural show this morning

went with a friend to chinatown for lunar new year festivities!

came home and did laundry and deep cleaned most of my apartment (still have to mop the floors)

organized planner for next week and finished reading a chapter for physiology

i am stressed :/ so many things to do, not enough time in the day, but telling myself that stressing about it is not productive, the only thing that will make it better is to just keep doing the damn things

happy lunar new year!! reminder that wearing a mask is an act of love!!

early morning readings / evening in the stacks

01 APRIL 2024 | 71/100 DAYS OF PRODUCTIVITY

woke up at 5am this morning to finish the readings for a paper i had due at 5pm, and i gotta say that procrastination kicked my ass

finished the readings and started outlining my paper before my bio lab at noon

we did a renal function lab, which meant we had to pee in a cup every 30 minutes and test it, kind of a gross lab overall since it wasn't super sterile, and the whole room smelled like pee

went home after and finished my paper!

went to my sociology lecture, talking about genetic testing, which was super cool

had a dance practice for my cultural show in two weeks, finished choreographing and teaching the dance!

spent the rest of the night finishing readings for my seminars tomorrow

🎧: spotify's liminal mix 📚: confederates in the attic - tony horwitz (55%); we are a haunting - tyriek white (70%)

essay planning / late night at the library

7 MAY 2024 | 78/100 DAYS OF PRODUCTIVITY

finally recovered from the panic-filled all-nighter to finish my capstone paper only to have a panic-filled twelve hours to finish another paper due tonight

managed to go grocery shopping to buy some fresh bread and cheese before locking in

finished reading and analyzing my sources and outlining my paper before grabbing dinner at my local teashop and heading to the library

managed to finish writing my paper two hours before the deadline while body doubling with a friend!

now finishing readings to study for my exam tomorrow evening

i fear lock-in season is taking its toll on me, but in a week i will be home, so there's that to look forward to
