29. DEC 2017 ::: Help, I started Bullet Journaling and now i cannot stop. 😱🚨🚑📃 I spent a while practicing water colouring and lettering for the title page (the failure was documented in my story.) And also scoured some magazines ( hello @flow_magazin ) for pretty images to paste. It's so much fun.

6. November 2017 :: Today was eerily productive despite severe sleep deprivation. I slept for only 4 hours last night, got up around 7:30 am, went for a morning run in the beautifully cold autumn morning sun, manage to track 8,5 km. Then at uni I also feel like I made some progress, albeit merely mentally. I talked to the other, now almost graduated, PhD student in our group and he helped tremendously figuring out the main aims of my project, and a plan of how to tackle my questions. He will also help me in the lab which I appreciate.

Then, after uni, I went to the city center and finally ordered new glasses. Now I’m having a sushi bowl (you know, for lazy people) and soon I’m going to snuggle up in bed and catch some Z’s.

16. 10. 2017 :: I’m back into reading. Or at least, I hope so.

I was looking up a few techniques to read more and read faster. After half a year of practically not reading/finishing a single book, I’m now reading >3 in parallel. This is apparently a good strategy to stay at it. It seems to work for me. Furthermore, I want to implement a morning routine of reading 20 pages. Twenty isn’t too much to overwhelm, but it makes a difference.

Do you have any tips for reading quicker?
