Productive-ish

I got my grades back and hard work really does pay off... with that said I’ve realized that I need to improve on handling stress. Matt (my husband^) is a huge support system and he handles stress completely different. He brings my anxiety down but I need to learn how to ground myself. With that said.... I’m currently setting “new year goals” and I’ve come to realize it’s OKAY not to be perfect! It’s okay if February comes around and you haven’t completely stuck to those goals! You are worth it and putting in the effort to put yourself first is not always going to be easy. While we all reflect on the craziness of 2020, remember to be kind to yourself throughout 2021!

I’m actually really proud of these notes. This is the first time I used GoodNotes5 for anything other than math notes. If you guys haven’t tried taking Cornell notes before... it’s a game changer. I haven’t done homework since Monday soooo today and tomorrow are going to be coffee fuiled and stress filled.

I got an iPad and it’s honestly made my life so easy. I’m still getting used to digital writing though... if you have any tips P L E A S E lmk.

Today is my dad’s birthday. I honestly love our relationship and can’t wait to fly home to see him. I took my dogs to the park and drown in some HW today... so it was a pretty normal day.

I’m excited for a new month. Although I’m very grateful for what I have... things just don’t seem to be going my way lately. I also got my very first bullet journal... already using my whiteout a lot but it’s keeping me busy.

It’s been a hard couple of days... my house flooded a couple of days before one of my midterms and now I’m super sick. In the plus side it snowed and this little dude was stoked.
