new desk and desk setup just in time to get started on summer research coding for the lab ☺️✨
still getting settled in my new place and will be painting soon so the walls won’t be this bare for too much longer!!
Slowly getting used to using my iPad to take digital notes! Hate how much it heats up though, looking forward to trading this one in for the new one next month 💛
let’s treat ourselves more gently. let’s go to bed early. let’s rest when we need to. let’s live life in a way that doesn’t make you feel burnt out after a few weeks. i want us to have fun, to enjoy everyday life, to be present and not to always push ourselves to the last limit. challenge yourself but also treat yourself with love. okay?
15.04.21// sunny day walks and sunny day study sessions ☕️ we’re so close to the end of this term! I am blessed to not have any exams this term, only papers! And only one more term and I’ve finished my degree! Masters degrees fly by, I can’t believe I’m 2/3 finished already.
Sending love and motivation to everyone 💕

Let’s talk about study methods... These are some of them.
09.04.21 / sending you happy friday from my workspace. i hope you’ve had a lovely week ♡
Just completed and submitted the final version of my Extended Essay !!! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
So I compiled lists of words that I found super super useful in making it easier for me to finish any essay !! Here is a masterpost of some sort with transition words + key vocabs grouped together for easy access as well as an IB IOC ‘cheat sheet’ I used for my english LAL orals last year (though most commentaries follow a similar structure so its generalisable) ~
Good luck with your essays !!!
… oops just realised I forgot to bullet point one of the lists

Yesterday I studied for psychology in every type of way I could. I still don’t trust myself on this chapter. And today I was busy with this weeks assignments, so still didn’t study for psychology quiz yet.
I got 4 quizes for this week. I do not know how I am suppose to study when every day has a couple of essays due.
Guess my workspace is as messy as my head..
Studying psychology is great and all but nobody prepares you for the existential dread after each class
lunch time study session C:
21st August - If there was a tropical island made just for you, what would you find on it?

I'm thrilled, today I had the last session with my first patient, she's a lovely girl of 15 and she's great. Every one of my teachers at uni told me that teens are so complicated and that establish rapport with them is difficult af, but in my experience it wasn't, we click from the beginning, today she and her mom were so grateful and happy for everything we achieved during our time working together as a team, also, she told me she'd never feel as understood as she did in therapy with me and that she's gonna miss me, as if that wasn't enough, at the end of the session I told her I have a gift for her, a diary so she can write her thoughts and feelings now that I won't be there, she told me that she have something for me too, she gave me a beautiful necklace, and before she hug me, being honest I almost cry right there. It's the best first experience I could've ask for and I'm gonna remember it and her forever 😭🤍
