i struggle getting things done on some days. it’s very hard. but i think of how lapsing into habits or behaviors that you thought you’d overgrown is often seen as regressing— but i’ve come to see it as a natural cyclic part of life. like spring and winter, death and rebirth. 

: ̗̀➛ uni is starting again, so here's a little more “motivational” moodboard for all of us struggling students <3

a little weekend morning action with breakfast, my best china, and kiki 🐈‍⬛🧹 i’ve been on a week-long break from uni and have been using the time to read and catch up on my shop! for the first time in a long time, this break feels like a proper break to me :) how has your week been so far? ✨ https://www.instagram.com/p/CiPxomqvF2Q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finals studying starts tonight. Napped after my classes, did requirements, went on meetings with org and MSC, and now going to take a break to wash up and have dinner before I full-on study.

I’m not even preparing for USMLE but First Aid for Step 1 when paired with pre-made flashcards on the USMLE-RX app is such a great revision tool for Pre and Para-clinical subjects for even Post Graduate medical entrance exams in India! I think I owe my degree to SketchyMicro/Pharm, Pathoma, Osmosis and FA haha.
