the things that bring me the most joy are the simplest: the feeling of climbing in to my own bed after a long day. the smell of coffee. a stranger being kinder than i expected. waking up to the sound of rain. the sound of a loved one's laughter. these simple joys are all i need.

We're all just humans

And to be human means to make mistakes.

And that's perfectly ok.

Learning to embrace making mistakes means learning to love yourself a little bit more (and at the end of the day, that's what really matters)

2/6 exams to go

Study for what you love and it will never feel like studying.

I tried all semester long to stay afloat with the courses as to not be overwhelmed during exam season

Now the exams started and I'm able to enjoy learning about things that I'm passionate about

5/6 exams to go (i absolutely nailed the first one)

one thing i really enjoy doing in my journal is writing down beautiful poems, passages from novels, and film reviews that i come across. a few weeks ago, i watched la chimera and it was one of the best movies i've seen in the past decade. i'm still thinking about it, weeks later.... beautiful movies beget beautiful film reviews so i wrote down an excerpt of an nyt review🏺

I watched a documentary yesterday about an Irish poet and it reminded me how as I child, I wanted to make documentaries like these. Portraits of people and their craft and the places that made them who they are today. I suppose writing fiction is the closest I got to this childhood dream. Watching the Irish landscapes on my screen made me long for a life that was different to the one I was leading now and more certain of spending my September in Scotland.

To Do today:

Have a good one

Studying isn't about grades, it's about falling in love with a subject.

I've officially started my last year of college and have never felt more excited. These years have been a process of learning to love learning new things, but i think I've finally started fully appreciating the opportunity to study subjects that not only interest me, but will also help me in my life and career post-university.

I'm grateful to have professors that are passionate about the courses they teach, I'm grateful for the friends that are just as dedicated to learning as I am, with whom I can always discuss interesting details and debatable theories.

It's a new year and I'm grateful to become a new me.

Trying to get back in the studying mood is the hardest part of studying.

There's still time left until my midterms, but I don't want to cram a lot right before the exams, so I'm trying to get back on track. Productivity level is remarkably low.

Any advice on getting motivated to study?
