cd | What do you do to reset your week? ⬇️
Since I switched to paper planning I basically transfer the weekly sched I made for the class to my planner (I print it since there’s ALOT) and then add personal things I want to do that week.
Other than planning, I clean the apartment to prep for the week bec who knows what storm might come and when I’ll be able to clean again 😭 I also re-stock my fridge (one of my fave things!). Simple chores ground me, keeps me sane and make me feel like my life has some semblance to normalcy. I also spend time with my dog and journal when I could for some weekly reflection.
Of course, these are the things that take little time — things that took years to hone with time management. Most of my “reset” day as a med student are still spent prepping for Monday’s exam, which is pathology. 🥲
We do what we can, right? 😂
Universities love to make their websites a fucking maze

“No, I’m not ok. But I haven’t been ok since I was 11, maybe 12. I am still here though. I’m still breathing. For me, sometimes, that will have to be enough.”
