valentine's days

come on eileen!

After my crazy week, Saturday's been good to me. I can't really write the way I want to right now, but today's been a really good day!

The tail end of Friday, too, actually: though it's not what I originally planned, I ended my week with an approved research topic on something I think is incredibly cool. I felt so accomplished after revising everything and getting my professor to agree, even though I hadn't actually done anything yet. Isn't that funny?

Anyway, I finally got to my extremely postponed appointment with the eye doctor. All good on that front, although I probably need to get glasses. It was the first time I ever went to my current clinic by myself, which felt like another huge achievement to me. On the way home, I bought rolls from my favorite bakery and promptly inhaled all of them once I was through my front door. (Cranberries! Cream cheese!)

I'm also in the process of reorganizing my apartment, in the hopes of reorganizing my brain along with it. The entire thing. I originally intended to just clean up my desk, which is an exercise in chaos, but I ended up cleaning out my makeup and skincare shelf instead. And now I need to tackle my wardrobe, too, which honestly looks like a laundry heap instead of a wardrobe. (When will I ever get to my desk at this rate...)

Right now I'm writing instead of studying for the barrage of exams next week. I need to start, but I just needed to get this out first. I have a 2000s romcom playlist blasting on my laptop speakers, and it really adds to the whole vibe of the day. Maybe that really is all you need to feel good.
