26 Jan 2021 ⚡️
day 1/100 of productivity
Just started on my Administrative law assignment, as a starter, I have 8 modules in my program for this semester and the lecturers are giving us assignments and presentations early, so while doing this, i still have around 5 assignments pending :(
Song of the day:
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Client, without prompting:
“Here’s a DNA test proving I’m the father.”

Today was such a long day, I thought it wouldn’t end (well, as a matter of fact, it is not over yet 😭).
I had a class in the morning (amazing, awesome, brilliant professor) and then, I thought I could spend the afternoon practicing for my oral exam. BUT the administration decided that it was a good time to inform my fellow classmates and myself of the class we had this afternoon. Like, literally 4 hours before said class. Well, it was actually a great class, I am glad to do a bit of economics again! I will now be off to practice by oral once again for tomorrow!
And please, do pray for me, I can already hear my neighbor’s music so I know there will be noise tonight… Why does he have to have parties the day before my exam? But that dude is SO SCARY I will NEVER knock on his door to tell him to shut up so… I will sleep with my headphones on
I hope everyone has a nice day! ❤
Listening to: whatever music by stupid scary neighbor decide to blast tonight apparently 🤷♀️

To do list of the day:
So far so good - i came to the library at 10am this morning, which is when they open now… Its honestly so sad that the opening times are shorter, although it definitely forces me to have a more productive day, and spend less time in the library not eating anything, and having all the coffee
Bad habit, yes, however i make up for it with eating all the food on my home days. Like really, i make 6 meals a day on home days…
Probably staying until close, at 5pm, unless i still cant focus that well. Im currenlty in a slump, but i got through about 3 really long boring audit lectures, so i am going with it being a good thing. Even though ive spent more than the estimated time on it…
Had a pretty long day in chambers yesterday, but productive! Stopped in tj’s on the way home. I have spent so much money on takeout in the last long number of months, so I really gotta start eating in more. I started watching the third season of ink master last night, and now there’s a ‘human canvas jury’ where they vote someone into the bottom, so we’re getting some agency for the human canvases! My laptop is plugged in by my bed rn, but it’s much easier for me to work at my desk, but my desk is overrun with embroidery stuff rn, so I’m not sure what my plan is today, but I do have some stuff to dooo so:
–drop stuff off for l
–email jk
–motion
–virtual timesheets
–call md
–dishes

Me, confidentally working on a case: I should put in some latin so it´ll look better ´invitatio ad offerendum´
My friend proofreading: This is a murder case 👁👄👁
Me: And what about it 😌💅🤷♀️
Trying to stay positive with OCI but all the rejection and not invited notifications are starting to hurt lol
what laptop (not any type of macbook) would you recommend that matches the criteria of
As I’d promised myself, no matter how this would turn out, I’m taking myself out. And I did. I watched Pixar’s ‘Soul’ and it was marvelous.
I do feel refreshed. It’s going to be difficult, but I’ll turn this around; I’ve been feeling down for too long amount of time.

First day of this semester is over and done. I already feel like im behind already, but ive taken it upon myself to establish some good study habits, and will do a library study sesh mon-fri!
Quote from my Bar Prep Course’s Stress Management Lecture: “The bar exam, like any test, is in no manner a reflection of your intelligence, self‐worth, or potential.”
Okay…but that feels like a lie.

I spent the morning tweaking my yoga sequence to fit with my final peak posture of the series. I then spent the afternoon at the studio teaching a couple classes.
Week 2: exams and new semester!
This is a bit delayed, but I had my first go at both law exams and online exams! It was incredibly stressful, especially with all the technical issues but it’s finished! I currently have 3 days to prepare for my new semester in terms of Notion and in prep reading
Con Law professor is officially a curmudgeon. He spent the first 10 minutes telling us about how he is losing his hearing and also vision so please be nice to him when he has no idea who we are or what we’re saying.
“I can’t read the goddamn seating chart, Cheesus Christ.”
“It’s too early in the semester and the day to turn you all into Con Law cynics.”
“I remember this part well because I was in high school at the time” - discussing Marbury v Madison (1801)
I think I’m gonna enjoy the class.
25.01.21// I miss sitting outside at cafes with coffees and crepes. To be honest I really just miss going anywhere. Truly have my fingers crossed that we are able to travel in the next year ✨
