Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
I'm starting to get serious about my senior thesis, so I've decided to upload my concepts for my piece, here is the main female for it :D aint she perrdy?
Lookie lookie :D my junior animation completed :D
Dude why do I gotta be educated⦠like bro how did I fuck around and end up taking a thesis. Fuck me bro.
Tired school days pass by the quickest... Finally sitting in front of my laptop at 10pm to do more schoolwork (according to my planner), and once again, I wonder how my brain wandered off to a different space and time since 6pm.
Current mood π:
β Doctor's appointment
β Classes
β Part-time job
β Food
β 30-min nap with my dog
β Randomly listened to an audiobook ad on YouTube for 1 hour...
β Clinic note
β New semester survey
β Check school email and reply
β Group project highlight
β Group paper section outline
βΉοΈ At least 1 hour of thesis writing
Venting: It's hard to not feel disappointed in myself for not working on any actual thesis writing in the past 2 days, especially when I keep telling myself that today is the day. I seriously just want my brain to not run away from my thesis because I feel like time is running out. I'm so exhausted both physically and mentally at this point that I just want to sleep for a whole day before doing anything. But I'm not sure if this is actually feasibly. I just feel so stuck in my brain right now that I just want to dump all my anxiety and fears out so my mind can shut up and do the actual work. Why is it so hard??? Ugh, and now I feel like I am not being kind to myself... But I really need to complain a bit. Life has been rough recently with school and it's not something that someone can solve for me.
I updated my semester planner over the weekend and am ready to refocus my time and energy to finish my 4th semester in this program.
I was caught up with time-sensitive tasks and reworking my planner again for most of today, but I promised my accountability buddy that I would work on my thesis at least a little. I need to remind myself that:
I can't say for sure that I come back stronger each time. But I know I come back wiser and more rested with every setback.
β Scheduled medical appointment (finally!)
β Read all school emails and replied
β Updated semester planner for the next 1.5 weeks (for 2 group projects)
β Updated calendar to work on group projects and thesis
β Wrote a personal article
β Therapy session
β Did laundry
β Find PPT slide for group project
Thesis Tasks
β Updated thesis writing schedule for this week
β Review advisor's feedback on thesis draft
β Made 1 correction (I skimmed through an article for this so I'm calling it a win)
Today's study concluded at 1:24am.
Study Music π§:
"The House of Wind | Magical Night Under the Starts with ACOTAR Spring Court Ambience" - Prythian on YouTube
Wow... what a day.
I'm finally calling it and getting ready for bed (maybe quietly read a couple chapters of my new fated lovers book on my phone).
I feel like I did quite a bit but also not writing enough to meet my schedule. I'm not sure how I feel about this. Am I overestimating how much I can do each day or week to meet my goal at the end of the semester? I really hope not. I really need to finish this thesis proposal so I am not behind (also not having to pay for another semester of thesis credits...) Money is definitely on the line.
My hope is that I can start tracking my wins and knowing that it will be ok in the end.
I'm so proud of myself!
I actually did some thesis writing tonight. It took me a little bit to start, but I think I have a clearer direction now that I know it is just small blocks that build up my entire paragraph, and then making up a section.
Tracking my progress is nice. Thanks for this space!
