Semester break had ended, and it's the start of my final semester for Masters in Management! Always starting the day with coffee. The weather is hot and humid, hence the iced latte.
Sometimes you don't feel strong enough to face your problems. Some days the best you can do is exist. And that's okay. It's okay to just be for now.
For your own peace of mind and sanity, don’t try to make sense of everything.

Somewhat my July reads, hopefully.
Semester break is a bliss 💕 but also made me quite lazy.

Ah, world, what lessons you prepare for us, even in the leafless winter, even in the ashy city. I am thinking now of grief, and of getting past it;
I feel my boots trying to leave the ground, I feel my heart pumping hard. I want
to think again of dangerous and noble things. I want to be light and frolicsome. I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing, as though I had wings.

Finals had ended! I've visited an art exhibition in the uni, love the vibes. Also, being random I applied for International workshop and got shortlisted for online video interview (hopefully it went well but I didn't have any high hopes for it).
Life is still good despite the busy schedule, chasing dreams and finals.
morning coffee and study session with friends.
Actually, life is beautiful and I have time

Taken few hours before afternoon exam on 5th May. This meant I've endured 3 papers and left with 1 more paper then semester break.
Thinking of doing part-time while waiting for new semester starts.
this is going to be difficult -> i am capable of doing difficult things -> i have done everything prior to this moment -> this difficulty will soon be proof of capability

It's midnight, and here I am awake with endless thoughts. The weather here been so hot that I swear I could melt into a puddle causing a need to keep my water super cold and iced all the time. But at night, I want my drink to be warm hence the Tyseo tumbler with OSK's oolong tea.
Gentle reminder to everyone to keep yourself hydrated, eat that delicious food you keep thinking of and get some rest when you're tired. You deserve it.

there’s a museum next door and they have this coffee shop that sells chocolate and salt cookies, and brownie cookies which i’m obsessed with.
Beltane tarot reading (look at how well my tarot deck knows its owner) and my new bullet journal monthly cover page (I didn't feel like doing anything special so ai just had fun with the font).

I am staring the month feeling a bit overwhelmed by everything I have to do for uni. I have yet to find a new routine for this next month of classes, and this is troubling me more than I expected. I did take today off from studying since it's an holiday here and starting from tomorrow I will be on my regular schedule. I plan on catching up some more with the history of religions lectures I have missed/ that have been uploaded online only. I don't know yet whehter I'll be done with them by the end of the morning when I'll have to commute to uni, but I plan on being caught up by the end of the week. I did a some planning to see everything I'll have to study in the next two months and I am not going to lie it's a lot, especially considering how little I can do during the week due to my long commute to uni. I am considering skipping classes on Wednesdays (that professor records lectures and uploades them online very quickly) in order to get more time to do everything. Since I will have lots to juggle these new few months I might even bring back a good old productivity challenge. I am also considering a few posts in which I explain how I am planning to tackle all this stuff I have to do.
Productivity:
finished the audiobook of Daisy Darker by Alice Feeney
wrote the first draft of its review
practiced Irish on duolingo
updadted my reading journal
created the first weekly spread for the new month in my bujo and did a bit of planning for what I have to study in the next couple of months (this definitely made me feel better about this overwhelming sensation, sitting down and planning calms my brain and I am trying to have faith in my organizational skills)
did some crosswords with my parents (it's something we often do during the holidays, but it'f fun doing them together)
did a tarot reading for a friend
Self care:
selpt in
took the day off since it's a holiday and I had no classes
read first thing in the morning
finally had the time to sit doen with a cup of tea and read the latest letter my beloved penpal sent me (and I plan on doing a couple of big letter writing session in the afternoons of this week when I get home from uni to answer both to them and to my digital penpal)
did a tarot reading for myself
