study

an abandoned neighborhood

My daily basis... my baby and I studying at our desk ✨ couldn’t ask for a better study partner tbh!

🌱 21.10.20|| Third week of uni already and so much to do, so little time.

ancient greek notes and current reads

@philology-studies violet you’re the absolute qUEEN of aesthetic, honestly please teach me your ways! i love how consistent and just beAuTiful your posts are 💖

If this essay doesn’t kill me, nothing will. I’m currently grappling with the concept of connecting Du Bois’ concept of double consciousness with post-structuralism. I don’t know whether I’m being very clever or very stupid. (x)

Two cappuccinos and 180 pages of Wolf Hall…

Everyone, meet Merlin, the best study buddy :)

it’s slow but i am making progress on my second chapter draft. working my way through a folder full of articles today.

Happy new year everybody! ✨🙏 Did you set your 2020 reading challenge? I’ve read 41 books of my goal of 20, it was such a great year speaking of readings. For this year I’ll try to reach 40 books or more, in particular non-fiction and classics. I can’t wait to dive into new inspiring reads, and posting nicer content.  I’ve got a gorgeous planner and a new sketchbook + a liner 0.3 as Christmas gift; I’d like to fill this one with architecture - classical sculptures I used to draw when I was at university.

I don’t often mention my actual job but it’s been taking over a little lately. I’m currently re-reading a lot of theoretical texts on intersectional liberation politics for work, which has me writing a seemingly infinite strategy document on different recommendations for how we can spur systemic change in our organisation. I’m grateful for a rare chance to approach my job in a research-based, theoretically-focused way as I usually lead on very operational projects. Some very promising (but often frustrating, due to inaction) conversations about decolonising the university, dismantling our systems that oppress marginalised students and augmenting activism in our roles.
