My Learning Self

struggling with my notebook system ✌

At this point I feel as though I only need a little push to propell me forward, to put a definite stop to the previous stage of life and move to the next. It's wonderful to feel it so concretely, perhaps daunting but I've learned to manage fear. Whilst the possibilities of the future rush past me I want to take a final moment to appreciate this last august breeze.

Mathematics is such a beautiful thing. Perhaps I would be able to tell its tale more proficiently were I not a writer, not damned to circle endlessly with words forever lacking compared to how I feel. The beauty of the way a certain theorem connects different fields or a particular proof works within a few elegant lines is difficult to convey. How would you convey it? Knowing that within those symbols you have found the silent language of the universe, how you're able to speak the unspoken and express that which dictates our ever expanding universe. How can you express the beauty of infinity and being able to express that?

Uh oh, they’re reading/writing/thinking about love again

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.

Are we fully given to our nature? And if we endeavour to change and reinvent who we are, is that effort necessarily a betrayal?

it's a sunny, clear october day for research. i have a timeline and everything for work now: honestly, who is she

Nevertheless, I have to translate a text for my latin- seminar📚
