Flights to Auckland booked which means I have two upcoming trips in my AirNZ app! One requires me to learn how to do an overnight hike? and carry stuff and climb hills? but I’ve got five months to panic about that 😅

Today I learned that I need one whole day off with no work or homework or I will get sick 🥴 postgrad days of just working all the time are not the one 🫣

my hottest of hot takes: instead of trying to replace NaNo but still writing a single novel in a month, instead try to build a habit of writing 300-400 words/day whenever you're able and you'll get more done in a year with much less stress.

cannot recommend enough giving your cat a last name. my boy cat's full name is richard biscuits and it is just so wonderful to say things like, "excuse me, mr. biscuits, what do you think you are doing?"
