17.03.2025—productive Monday. finished watching adolescence and it was so good
Sunday, 16.03.2025
mock exams. that's all what i've been thinking of since the beginning of this week. first was geo sl which i think went pretty well. i'm also writing chem on monday and it stresses me out a little bit. the good news is that i am almost done with all of my IAs.
10th semester, here we go! || 15.04.2025 Lux
₊˚。⋆❆⋆。˚₊ winter term recap ₊˚。⋆❆⋆。˚₊
january - march 2025
with the end of this term, i can officially close the door on the first half of my bachelor's degree. it's taken closer to 3 years than 2 to get to this point, but the finish line is clearer now than it's ever been.
it's been an especially good term for my research aspirations – in january i started on a cell bio project with my adviser, got recruited by my ecology prof in february, and in march was accepted to a summer position in a biochemistry lab. i love my classes, don't get me wrong, but there's nothing quite like lab work for learning how to actually be a scientist.

pretty happy with this week, given how busy work has been. still working on my desk set up - I'm thinking fairy lights or leds under the shelf, and something better for file organisation.
happy march 🌼

I love the independence of doing a PhD! I thrive when I’m interested in what I’m doing (I am), I’m constantly learning (also), and I am not being micromanaged (I’m not!). I love my supervisor and the faith she’s showing me to get my own shit done.
I love my job.
I love my project.
My boss is so great.
I can’t tell how much of all this enthusiasm is coming from the sun and how much is real but I’m riding it.
