Shades Of Green In Van Gogh’s Paintings

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? 😂

to myself,

i am trying to love you more

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

i absolutely failed that biochem midterm LMAO

moved into my new apartment yesterday and woke up to this beautiful lighting.

still getting it all set up, but I already love it

The life I want to be living is this: going for long autumn and winter walks listening to podcasts, coming back home to a flat with enough natural light and the ability to get fresh air, my environment and belongings being clean and organised, running a hot bath to read in and feeling the water heat up my chilled bones, working on my own projects and writing, cooking nutritious and tasty food, having a comfortable sofa to sit on in the evenings.
