i’m in child and adolescent gender development and worked on my assignment while on my solo trip. maintained my sleep schedule (830-430) i finished 3 books!

-brave new world (finished while walking on beach and on my walk through hobbit trail)

-margo’s money troubles (finished on the plane and in airport)

-candelaria (read everywhere and one particular time at a hilltop cafe while eating steak salad and taking teeny bites of a huge lemon meringue pie

-started piranesi on the plane home

i turned 29!

it was a different sort of birthday bc i didn’t put so much expectation on it. it was so normal and still had little bits of specialness to it.

-jenna facetimed me in the morning

-i completed all my work on time and left early

-drank coffee and cleaned like CRAZY while listening to LISA album

-ran errands (ran to the bank, mailing tax amendment via post office, and…)

-ran to target for moisturizer and ran into evan! so cute!!

watching cleaning/cooking youtube videos before bed

watching bee and puppycat drunk in the art room

watching cartoons on saturday mornings

i’m creating new memories, new neural pathways by reading before bed and after my bath, so this change is not bad, just different.
