April 19, 2021 // it’s hard to believe my spring semester is almost over, I feel like it just began ✍ I hope I can survive my finals next week and then I’ll be free

It’s February! I’m busy (back on campus regularly for the first time in a while which feels weird) and digging into revising my thesis a lot.

My girlfriend came to visit this past weekend which was really really nice because I miss her. Hopefully I’ll be able to go visit her soon, because I want to see her concert next weekend but idk if it’ll happen yet :(

Also I got an email yesterday from one of the grad school programs I applied to that I haven’t opened yet bc I’m scared. I don’t think I’ll get in? But I don’t know if I want to know right now. I can’t decide if getting emailed so early (it feels early idk) means they didn’t get many applications or they didn’t accept me. And I don’t think I’ll get in anywhere but I don’t know what to do next year if it isn’t grad school.

Roughly an hour until my meeting with my advisor to talk about my senior/honors thesis (draft of)

In other news I’ve had all of my classes now and I think it’ll be difficult coursework but I’m looking forward to it. I suspect a significant portion of my psych class are there for the general education credit and idk if our prof knows (he’s new I’m pretty sure) but he seems cool lol

First day of spring semester and my first time back on campus for more than like an hour and a half since we went home in 2020–tbh not loving it. I’m going to need a routine bc I have almost 4 hours to kill twice a week between my classes. And I need to email my advisor about a meeting we scheduled for Friday that I want to move (whoops).

Anyway, I hope everyone’s semester is off to a less shaky start than mine! (I am, literally and unstoppably, shaking)

Working on my last chapter for my honors thesis–and I need to email my advisor back. Not exactly looking forward to spring semester starting on Wednesday but it’s my last one!

Also I’ve been worrying about getting sick, esp with how much I’ve been working bc I can feel my immune system taking a hit with all the late nights and less than stellar eating/drinking/exercising (which I’m honestly not super good about anyway lol). So I’ve been drinking lots of orange juice and I’m sharing what’s in my cup (and what it’s inspired by lol)!

So I used to work at a coffee shop and we had a (admittedly unpopular but it was on the menu) drink called a creamsicle, which you made like this:

• Fill a 20oz cup with ice
• Add a shot of vanilla (probably about 2oz? We didn’t measure we just counted to three)
• Fill with orange juice
• Top off with half and half

And it’s good! But that shop closed at the beginning of covid and I’m at home without regular access/need for some of these things, so I’ve been using a smaller cup with no ice, and just adding whipped cream to my orange juice for a little bit of the vibes. And it’s really getting me through some of these mornings (plus my coffee lol I have at least 2 mugs a day these days)
