Study space update 🌿

20,000 words of notes and drafting later I have finally conquered my latest essay! I’ve titled it ‘The Transideological Politics of Irony: Disrupting Historiographical Metanarratives in Morrison, Rushdie and Hatoum’, but who knows what I have actually argued at this point :’–)

I woke up early today to a white Istanbul and I’ve finished reading Wuthering Heights. It was my first time reading it in English so it felt like I read it for the first time. It took me a bit longer to read it than usual since I wasn’t familiar with some words and old phrases. Also, an old photo from Amsterdam, I truly want to visit there once again.

02022020 | a lot of 2s today…

it’s the shortest month of the year, so every day will count! i have a lot of goals, but one i’ll share now is getting a better handle on parsing linguistic theory so that 1) i can understand and 2) help my classmates

maybe i’ll post little ‘bites’ of readings to help me practice [and you all get a chance to learn about interdisciplinary linguistic writings]?

today's slow sunday setup, i am currently working at my linguistic paper but i'm already so curious about the reading pensum for my literature class, so i might have a peak when i am done with working on my paper and cleaning for today! (cleaning really is necessary, lol)

also i am incredibly longing for a cozy autumn start, it is my favourite season and i am looking forward to it so so so much!

Sunday study session with my bestie 💕

Returned to my dorm yesterday. I just couldn’t concentrate on my paper with my family and friends around. Hopefully I’ll finish it until the deadline.

Quarantining, reading 'Hippie' by Paulo Coelho and really feeling the desire to travel. But first, I've got to study for the TOEFL iBT so I can do the test in September!

27th December: What was the best moment (of your Christmas)?

This Christmas I didnt have the difficult family moments of previous years. It was a quieter, more grateful christmas. I hope everyone had a nice time. Xx Emily
