#isolation study

Another online lecture down. I’m enjoying being able to have a cup of tea and lie on my bed when my back hurts, but at the same time it’s difficult to resist getting my phone out when I know no one can see me. Next assignment is due at the end of this month, so I better sort out my focus soon.

Coffee & studying ☕️📚

Trying to enjoy the weather while studying! I’m still working on this last assignment, and thankfully my lecturer’s agreed to give me a few extra days because the focus just doesn’t exist at home. Once this is in, the first year of my masters is done!

I’ve gone from sitting on the bed to study to pretty much getting into bed. I’m not feeling great this week which is just making focusing on this lecture even harder. This lockdown is really starting to affect my degree more than I thought it would.

I had my first online lecture today. It was definitely interesting, but overall it was pretty much the same. The platform is designed pretty well that we can talk too if we want to, or just make it clear using reactions etc if we’re getting it or if we’re confused. The lecture itself was a pretty tricky one (as evidenced by my ruined nails from anxious habits), but really it could have gone a lot worse. We’ll see how this goes for the next few weeks at least!

My last lecture before summer! I still cannot focus an home so I’m trying to focus instead on my assignment. Fingers crossed that this is all over by the time I have more classes, because this is really getting difficult now.

I think this is going to be a difficult time for everyone, but I’m trying to make the best of it with my favourite tea and a candle. I’m still struggling with this essay and this is making it even harder to focus, so right now I’m just aiming to pass it and move on ever if I don’t get the best grade. I hope everyone is doing okay at the moment - I know I’m not usually the chattiest studyblr, but I’m going to try and think of a way to be more social on here. I think we could all use it at the moment!

I’ve not been posting much recently but there’s not a lot to say! My essay deadline got extended because I was a bit under the weather this week (nothing serious I promise), so I’m hopefully finishing that off today. I can’t take pretty pictures in cafes or on campus rn and my flat just isn’t that pretty really. But I got to read my book in the sunshine for a bit today while my partner did the shop. I guess it’s the little things right now?
