~✧°+* 7/100 days of doing better*+°✧~
05.08.2023
Another not so great day. Sometimes bad days, unproductive days, days that make you feel sad and lonely, just pile up. Sometimes you have four, five, twelve of them right back to back, and sometimes you have none for months. But regardless of how frequent they are, eventually they'll pass and you'll go back to calm days, to productive days, to happy days.
Positive things I did today:
kept the duolingo Spanish streak going
called my parents
did the laundry
tried baking cookies (and failed horribly)
played minecraft with a friend
Hours slept: ~7hrs Screentime: 6hrs Steps taken: ~900
learning from the reblogs of that post that there's a lot of people out there under the impression that "kill your darlings" means "kill your characters" and that's the funniest possible interpretation of that phrase
Starry starry night 💫

It's been very rainy and quite cold for the season here and the drastic change in weather (it was incredibly hot and humid before temperatures dropped) really affects me. I've been sleeping a lot more than usual which makes being productive difficult.
I try not to beat myself up about not getting things done easiely; or not getting things done at all. Instead, I take breaks when I feel like I need them and try getting back to work once I've had a little rest. And that seems to be working (somewhat).
I got a history exam this coming monday which I've barely done anything for. It's open book, so I hope it'll go alright reagrdless but I'll still try to revise all the slides over the weekend.
Positive things I did today:
did the dishes first thing in the morning
finished work for my professor
started revising history of witch hunts notes
went grocery shopping
kept the duolingo Spanish streak going
enjoyed an iced coffee while playing some animal crossing new horizons
Hours slept: ~9hrs 30min
Screentime: 6hrs 10min
Steps taken: ~4.800
Shakespearean Insults:
All eyes and no sight
LUMP OF FOUL DEFORMITY
Thou art a boil, a plague-sore, an embossed carbuncle
Not so much brain as earwax
ANOINTED SOVEREIGN OF SIGNS AND GROANS
A fusty nut with no kernel
SERPENT HEART, HID WITH FLOWERING FACE
Crusty botch of nature
HIGHLY FED AND LOWLY TAUGHT
You scullion! You rampallian! You fustilarian
Idol of idiot-worshippers!
No kernel in this light nut; the soul of this man is his clothes
All the infections that the sun sucks up from bogs
Infinite and endless liar, an hourly promise-breaker
Is there something you planned to do before you got trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?
Are you yelling at yourself to get up and do the thing, but you can’t, because you’re trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?
Consider this your save point.
Put tumblr down, stand up, stretch, and go do the thing you planned to do. Future you will be incredibly grateful.
