#fall study challenge

12.03.2020

my emotional support team helped my finish the bell jar over the weekend! it was a pretty heavy read and i deeply related to esther and her gifted kid burnout vibes, as well as her incredibly fragile mental health (too relatable unfortunately). the racism was very difficult to read and inexusable.

25 August 2020

Day 2 of my fall study challenge!  I am so excited to be doing this with everyone!

Today’s prompt: What time does your alarm go off in the morning?  Well, as you can see.... I am an early bird.  Depending on the day my alarm could go off between 4:40ish and 7am.  Let me explain.

Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, I work opening shift at a coffee shop.  So my alarm wakes me up at the pre-dawn hour of about 4:35.  I then spend about five minutes staring into my phone so that I have some sort of chance of waking up.  From there I get up, do my morning routine and am out the door at 5:20 for my 5:30 shift. (I live suuuuuper close to work so I wont be late.)

Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, I let myself sleep in to about 5:30.  I get up do my routine and work out.  After that a cup of coffee and studying or class!  Fridays are laundry day.

i sorted through my heaps of college mail and i found this little journal hiding in the stack. not sure what to put in it yet but it’s so pretty! i can’t believe it’s almost the end of the year. 2020 has both flown by and lasted forever.

Quarantine Fall Study Challenge Day 56 - November 9th

some long term goals? i’m always nervous to talk about goals and everything but i’d say i’d like to be able to run a mile in 8 minutes by next august, finish my mummy fanfic (PLEASE TALK TO ME ABOUT THE MUMMY) by my birthday, and read two books a month for the entirety of next year.

here’s my best boy asleep next to my currently reading! so far, i like this book well enough but i think i need some more time to adjust to the scenario. nadia and lynet’s interactions are compelling though!

Quarantine Fall Study Challenge - October 25th
