Still settling into being back at uni and narrowing down my dissertation topic.

happy start of the term! i can't believe it's taken me this long to start reading pdfs on my remarkable.

I visited Topping and Company in Edinburgh earlier this year and it was such a lovely time that I couldn’t not visit the one in Bath (thanks to @pourdownlikesilver for telling me about it!) I spent so much time deciding which book to get as it’s always overwhelming in the best possible way when I enter a bookstore for the first time. I ultimately decided on an exclusive copy of Water signed by the author John Boyne (whose earlier work The Heart’s Invisible Furies I thoroughly enjoyed, so I’ve got high hopes for Water!) Then I chose a couple of books to gift to friends. It was a lovely sunny day 🌞

A bookish corner in my room! Nothing makes me feel more homey than being surrounded by books 📚❤️

i'm finally taking french classes, and i'm kinda proud of myself. this semester, we're finishing the A1 book, and it's a lower level than mine (i should be starting the A2 book), but it's good because i can see how much i learned on my own.

(i got a seat as soon as I wrote that! 🍀✨)

The summer is such a nice time

Our table finally arrived, it’s so nice! I was really torn between this type of wood and a darker finish but I’m glad I went with this because it suits the room so well. Having somewhere to work that is not on the floor is a nice change, but we still don’t have any chairs so perching on a stool for now :’-)

p.s. i’m really loving this doodling on the pics thing, can you tell?
