memoirs of a brown girl

trying to make my comeback here... in the thick of the PhD at the moment. in my absolute final year, writing my literature review with a looming deadline. so obviously i decide to dig out my tumblr account. struggling with focus and general aches & pains this week. miss having fun in the world.

last week in food: i have been visiting my favorite cafes just to make work a bit fun... and occassionally buying myself sweet treats to eat in bed. today i got done with all my teaching for this week and i am kind of exhausted at the prospect of doing this for 9 more weeks... one day at a time *deep breaths* i am genuinely looking forward to flying home and vegetating at the end of this term

some other photos from this week: i rewatched kiki a few nights back and it resonated so much with me! (moving out, living alone, making friends, working *sobs*). I have also been reading ali smith's autumn and i loved the opening paragraph. and the third photo is from campus that i took on friday - a rare sunny day.

other things to do today include laundry and meal prep. at least i managed to sneak in some reading time this morning.

more photos from my weekend trip to bath. i took a walking tour - learned a lot about how the rich used to live (ew) and visited the roman baths. fascinated by the 1000 year old water and ruins. really felt the passage of time. came back to manchester. now back to transcribing and teaching.
