Day 2/30: Share a photo of your study space!

(yes I definitely decluttered before I took a picture just to show off Owl guarding my headphones)

I have a little more than two months off before I start my next session, and I’m nervous. I’m an undergrad transitioning from a fairly unstructured earned enrollment path (submit all coursework by the end of the session, no discussion posts/participation component) to a much more traditional program and schedule (weekly due dates, participation, live office hours), and I’ll be enrolled full time.

I struggled with the self-paced nature of my previous courses, so I’m honestly excited for that element— but I also work 30 hours a week, and my previous ability to knock a course out across a few long Saturdays means I haven’t actually figured out yet how to effectively balance work with my academic demands.

I spend half my time at work and half my time in my bedroom at this point, so this prompt had to wait until I could remember to get a photo of both places. I'm lucky enough to have an cube in the grad student offices, so of course it's slowly becoming as maximalist as my bedroom.

06/30 days of New Year Momentum Challenge 🐎 [23 / 02 / 24]

Tea and fidget toys all the ways !

In more details, I try to do as many mindful moment as I can while breathing or drinking tea. The goals is to have little pocket of quiet and me-time. I also work with a fidget toy (my preferred is a fidget cube) in my other hand so I can make noise and be frustrated as I want on one side so the main side can be delicate or what I need it to be. I also tend to do many todo-list in the start of any intense session, just so I can quieten a little my mind and work in more peace.

In more self-care moment, when I'm stressed I try to take better care of my skin (because if I do not, I look like grating cheese). I don't like to take care of myself, but I will do it.

Here's my fidget toys (the picture is missing a rainbow slinky). The Simon don't have any battery, it's just the button. The strange thing in the middle is a astronomy ring. And each little egg have different things inside (sand, rocks, rubber rocks et caetera) so they have different weight and make different noises. And I have another big fidget cube in my handbag, for the case that I'm not home.
