Eid mubarak!!! I’m currently at my grandma’s and will stay here for some time so expect some more Mediterranean content!! On a side note, I’ve finished reading Werther while working at my mom’s shop and I do understand why my French lit teacher didn’t stop talking about it.

31st July - What do you like most about the beach?

The beach is a sanctuary for my friends and me. We mostly spend our time there, playing games, eating, drinking, just having a good time. Most of my cherished summer memories were made on there.

How many of you are First-Gen student ? & How do you cope with the feeling of being inadequate / lost ?

I have been struggling with being confused concerning my place in society, in my university and in my family. I finished my first year, but I have doubt about my capacity and my future almost every week so I am worried on how to deal with this mental state going forwards. Plus, I am not American (French citizen) but most of the tips I found online were US-centrics which leaves me with no actual techniques or ressources to apply or look into.

P.S. : if you’re not first-gen but know someone who is, feel free to relay the info they have! and please tag some studyblrs when you like/reblog this post so that it can get some attention and we can pool some information. I’ll start by tagging some studyblr I follow in hope to start movement.

Read these, yes. But then read books that were not written as treatises on racism. Seek out Black art not only because it can teach you something about race but because Black people are simply doing extraordinary work.

Read Morrison as much for her prose and her mastery of pacing as for her politics. Read Ross Gay’s Book of Delights, an ode to little wonders and a reminder to look at the world with gratitude. Read Elizabeth Alexander’s stunning testament to grief and marriage, The Light of the World, and note the innovations in form as she mixes memoir with poetry and recipes, a collage meant to mirror her late husband’s paintings. Read NK Jemisin’s The Fifth Season and marvel at the worlds she builds.
