Another day for recharging.

I'll try to get back into studying and being productive on monday. My siblings start school again next week which goves me a reason to get up and get out of the house in the morning.

Positive things I did that day:

did the laundry

watched Breaking Dawn part 1

Hours slept: ~8hrs 30mins Screentime: ~8hrs Steps taken: ~500

Posting this here for everyone!!

Romantic academia:

Going on study dates to pretty libraries, fighting to find a seat next to each other.

On discord listening to them go through a powerpoint the night before their big presentation.

The Arts/Humanities one proof-reading the STEM one's motivation letters/long emails.

Reading through interesting research in bed together, sharing the one phone screen.

Alternating between who is the one making tea for the study session. (Bonus: matching study mugs)

Study breaks include marveling over some super niche knowledge acquired during the study session.

Emailing an article as a pdf, and titling the email "I thought you'd find this interesting :-)"

Setting a timer for a cuddle break when the assignment work gets too overwhelming. Celebrating together when the assignment gets done.

Sharing the excitement of finding a new productivity app / stationary shop / study hack.

“What horrifies me most is the idea of being useless : well educated, brilliantly promising, and fading out into an indifferent middle age.”
