I’ve had a tough time adjusting back to student life. I just want to lay in bed, watch series, and sleep, but there is no time for that. Even when I am sitting in the library, however, I’ve been struggling to get my mind in the right place. What usually takes me an hour to do is taking me 4 hours to finish. I guess it is to be expected after the lovely, yet exhausting activities of last month. I can’t keep going like this, though, so I planned what will be an extremely busy day. Today, I will get both schoolwork and errands done, and have little time to rest. The hope is that this will kick start my sense of urgency and get me working faster. I started out the day by folding and putting away my laundry. I then rushed to class, and made it with only a couple minutes to spare. After finishing this blog, I will go grocery shopping, put the groceries away, and eat brunch. If somehow I still don’t feel like doing work, I will clean up my room a little and finish packing my first suitcase, which is almost fully packed already. At some point, I will go for coffee, then head to either a café or the library (depending on my study mood) and write. For as long as I need to. I will not open Netflix until I am done writing 1000 words. I will reward myself with one movie.
Wish me luck.
So, as I mentioned in the paragraph above, I did already begin to pack. I am planning on mailing one of the suitcases home, as it should be a lot cheaper, though it might take quite long and all my winter stuff will end up in Texas rather than Boston. I am not entirely sure this is the best idea, but travelling with three suitcases is nearly impossible, and I doubt I will have the space at my summer housing. Another thing I have to worry about is my hard drive. My computer ran out of space a few months ago, and I began using the free OneDrive space that comes with my QUB student account, but I am worried that account will be erased after my year is done. Thus, I feel the need to buy a new external hard drive and transfer all my videos and pictures into that. I think this might take quite a while to do, so I am buying the external hard drive within the next few days and getting the process started as soon as possible.
I’m getting hungry, so I shall head out and buy some food! Until next week~
