now that im back home, im getting back into doing the khan academy ap chem coursework. also getting very antsy for school again–very much miss having such strong structure to my days.
Hello guys! These posts are few and far between because I’m currently working extra to try and save up before university. These are a few bits I picked up to take with me including a midwife specific planner and some milestone cards to track my progress! How are you guys doing? In times of isolation feel free to message me if you want. Stay safe!
today the first of my virtual camps for this summer started, and my package full of camp goodies for the other arrived. before the opening ceremony, a bunch of us hung out and played games on the zoom call. also, i watered and checked up on my plants today. Lola, my croton who dropped all her leaves and made me scared she was gonna die, is starting to show some new growth!! and i took a couple of cuttings off Alexus, my spider plant, to try and propagate.
haven’t had time for much in the way of listening today, podcasts or music, but a go-to favourite song of mine is Come To Light by Arkells.

Goals for the blog
So I wanted to explain a bit about what I want this blog to be for me. I want this to be a place to showcase my film projects and show my growth as a filmmaker. I also want this blog to help motivate and inspire me to enjoy studying. I would love it if this blog can help others do the same!
I hope I can make some good memories with this blog! Thanks! ~ Maddie
I’ve been struggling with finding a balance between not burning myself out & not feeling gross at the end of the day after getting nothing done. It’s a lot of reminders that taking time for myself is okay - but also that I genuinely enjoy learning new things, and getting to-do items checked off is beneficial in the long run. Not quite sure if I’ve found that perfect balance yet, but the sky remains gorgeous and there’s plenty of time to figure it out.
hope you’re all having a good day/night, wherever you are in the world ✨
continued working on the khan academy ap chem course today. actually becoming very reassured that my sophomore honors chem prepared better than i thought. also, a nice little book haul.
so, im still on summer break, but ive started doing some of the khan academy ap chem course because i know im not great at chem and i had a chem teacher who moved from teaching ap bio for a decade to chem sophomore year so i thought i might as well get a head start–and ill take any excuse to do some prettyish notes
i asked a while ago if yall would be okay with me posting some of my poetry–fulfilling the “nwrite” half of the username–so i decided this one from a local writing contest would be a good start. if you want to read more of my poetry, i post a fair amount on my instagram.
Hi. Nearly 2 months since my last post. Nice one Niamh. But in lowckdown things to do are few and far between so I’ve got back into reading thanks to booktok. I jsut finished this and I like it but I’m not sure how I feel about the ending. If you e read it what do you think? Hope you’re all still doing well out there❤️
I made my July spread today. The theme is based off of Seventeen’s new album heng:garae and one of the designs for the album, clouds. I didn’t need a whole lot this month as I’m still not super busy with things yet but I have just enough room to mark down the important stuff.
Week 14 of the 2020 Quarantine Challenge - Where would you rather be from?
Ngl I think this photos of my kitty looks like some sort of painting… I’m proud. And I’m actually from Kansas and I’m very proud, so I wouldn’t change a thing!
Week 11 of the 2020 Quarantine Challenge - What would you want to be stranded with on a deserted island?
I thought I’d jump in on this challenge, starting in June with my June planner! If I were stranded on a deserted island I’d probably just want the supplies to escape, but if I was saying something that actually answered the question in the way it’s meant to be answered I’d wish there was a library.
anger and tenderness: my selves. and now i can believe they breathe in me as angels, not polarities.

i’m spending my summer reading new books for the first time in years, starting with my mother’s favourite. people you’d trust your life to, by bronwen wallace. what are you reading lately/what’s on your “to be read” list?
Feeling the pressure as I start getting closer to my test date and I really miss getting to go to cafes to study. This was the cutest vegan restaurant in Brussels, and it’s where I’m mentally at instead of my desk at home.
exams officially started today! i had an english language exam, and it went pretty great :) the extract was good because there was lots of imagery to talk about, and for the creative writing at the end the photo was pretty easy to describe. my next exam is maths non-calculator on monday
happy Eid everyone! i hope you have a wonderful day celebrating with family and friends :)
hey everyone! haven’t posted the past week because i’ve had exams and its obviously been very hectic, but i finally found some time to take photos and edit etc. these are some of my biology notes for the exam (which went pretty well), and i have now thrown away all of my biology notes and book lol.
~ notes from a lecture about the weimar republic! the first photo is my notes that i was trying to take during the lecture, so very messy, and then i rewrote them :)
im back again! i finished year 11 recently so i didn’t post for a bit as I was out with friends and family. but, in preparation for 6th form, i’ve loads of work to do (not helped by the fact that i’m doing 4 a-levels). i also got my mock exam results! overall they were really good results, but especially graphics, history and german (which im doing next year) that i got A*s in! i have a 2 hour class today for graphics, so i have about an hour to do some work before i leave :)
