your local frog and toad living their October life. ☕️
lately some sort of sickness came over me and i feel like a child that needs constant attention and help with the smallest things. my muscles are sore, throat dry, cough is wet, headache never leaves me and just an overall tiredness. the worst thing about it though, is that this week is my first assignment for ancient history and i have to balance my need of rest with writing and studying for it. ☕️
gentle whispers of the September rain, acquiring dusty, second hand books that will fill all the autumn’s gloomy evenings and walking under umbrella around my campus whenever I can. ☕️
just some simple shots from today spent by my desk, watching all the lectures i haven’t been able to watch yet, with strong espresso and candles, because it is so gloomy that it feels like an eternal evening. ☕️
some antique store finds on this rainy day, two hundred years old bottles; the bigger is a Parisian hair oil product from 1900s, the other one once locally sold at the so called Elephant Apothecary in Bergen established in 1858. I based dating of them on the side seams, base type and top type.

Already started filling my apartment with pumpkins, both real and decorative, and my belly with all the pumpkin spice in the world. September is good, and makes me feel warm.
today I had my first Latin lecture this semester and yet another one of religions in antiquity, but the tiredness that I have since I started using sleeping pills is really hard to fight. ☕️
currently doing my Latin homework by the candlelight and whispering rain. here are some last photos I took, of my study wall and an outfit I wear religiously. ☕️
☞ lately i’ve been longing to taste a harbinger of autumn; just a little slice of cheek-pinching wind, an omen of the yellow leaves or a whisper of upcoming rains. while sitting at our favorite café, enjoying our warm drinks, it finally came. not in the least shy, the rain started to pour the announcement of the shift of seasons. it seemed fitting to buy this specific brand of instant caramel chai latte, which comforts me every autumn, and grab all the books necessary to read during my favorite time of the year. ☕️
my study room got some new pieces and it is starting to look like the one I always dream of when I was little. imagine all the hours I will spend here with my books, typewriter, old documents, sketchbooks and imagination. ☕️

Good news, I got things done. Bad news, only because I was really annoyed about something. Studying, going for a walk, exercising and even reading, all in one day. I know this is just how a normal day looks like for lots of people but sometimes we have bad times. Hope, this is me getting out of my ~lazy zone~.

6/10 Days of Productivity
It’s 42°C here and the next days are even hotter by 2-3 degrees. My laptop and I don’t want to work under this circumstances.
- Watched two lectures
- Cleaned my room
- Did not melt

One thing I miss about being home is having access to all my old journals and books. My dream is to just buy a french cottage somewhere in the countryside with a massive bookshelf and bring everything there ♡
