Meandering geology student seeking the next adventure. Desperate to explore, forced to study. Happiest barefoot in a lake, listening to folk music, with good books, good vibes. and no sense of time.

Lovely SGE friendsgiving! Amazing, hardworking, dedicated humans!

Chocolate croissants and strawberries in the rock garden with Kirsten. She gets my mentality of acknowledging the bad days & stress, but embracing all of it. Everything is ephemeral and you never know if a landslide will interrupt your flow next. These may become the good old day and proud memories.

This. This is why I love my department! I am so lucky to have found good, supportive peers!

Drawing with no plan everyday has been a journey. Some strange creatures live in my brain.

You know, it's weird to regularly be compared to a cartoon character, but sometimes I look in the mirror like "yeah...I get it...."

Friend sent me her notes about a project we're doing and the header cracked me up!

Helen brought me a sticker today! I don't know what started this trend of bringing me stickers lately, but this is the third person and I am loving it.

@gendercrook.bsky.social I feel that you'd appreciate this.

Surprisingly happy with this progress! 1-2 inches a year and it might be done by Christmas!

I am training my brain to understand that it is no longer actively dying and we don't have to fluctuate between depressed acceptance and panic. Making and washing my bed felt very unimportant during all of this. This is a win. 4 loads to put away later, but this is a win. Brain chemistry is strange.

I am assigned to draw or journal for at least thirty minutes a day with no plan, goal, or purpose. The first few days were mostly just shapes, but things are evolving! This is Dougie the Anxiety Demon. "Don't feed the demon!"

It has been a long day with lots of feelings and support and conversations. @gendercrook.bsky.social sent me a strawberry milkshake and I got to converse with my favorite little human. It's a good day!

Kirsten and I are Chuck TAs in separate classes but co-TAing structure in the fall.

Hell yes, WM makes hard pebbles! 💪

Puzzles for study breaks. Alternating between Kirsten and I quizzing each other and yelling out colors and bumps/innies.
