In preparation for the next semester, I've started looking at Latin grammar today. It's so tricky, but I forgot how much I love language learning! #BookSky #AcademicSky #EduSky #UniSky

Reading books is probably one of the safest ways to spend your time unlike bungee jumping or parachuting.

Word of the Day is ‘hunch-weather’ (19th century): weather so cold it makes you hunch your shoulders when you walk outside.

In case you want to go off like Shakespeare Knave ...(n.) a deceitful or tricky person. Cur ...(n.) a mean or cowardly dog or person Whoreson ...(n.) a bastard in any (or every) sense of the word "..My lord’s knave, you whoreson dog, you slave, you cur!" (King Lear)

Logodaedaly ...skilled in using or coining words.

Eastenders, Gavin and Stacey, AND Would I Lie to You - really treating myself tonight

i'm now entirely ready to plan and write my essay :) i think that can can wait until after christmas though (if i can control myself) #UniSky #EduSky #AcademicSky

in true academic fashion it has now increased to 4 secondary texts.

good morning! #EduSky #AcademicSky #UniSky

only 3 more secondary texts to read before i can start planning my paragraphs and writing my essay!! hoping to get these done by tomorrow night at the latest #AcademicSky #EduSky #UniSky #StudySky #BookSky

I'm in that stage of essay-planning where I bookmark and read a secondary text, find another text that was referenced in it, bookmark that, and continue to repeat the process until I have way too many sources for a 2500-word essay. At least I can say I did my research! #EduSky #AcademicSky #UniSky

Give her what she really wants for Christmas: respect, bodily autonomy, the blood of her enemies and a hidden door that opens onto a secret library.

no matter how many essays i write, i will ALWAYS struggle with finding contemporary reviews 🥲 especially with less popular texts- i can barely find any modern essays on An Imaginative Woman, let alone contemporary ones!! #EduSky #AcademicSky

Writing is an act of rebellion. Writing is an act of creation. Writing is an act of salvation. Writing is an act of exploration. Writing is an act of emotion. Writing is an act of confession. Writing is an act of speculation. Writing is an act of reflection. Keep writing.

starting a new novel tonight... trying to get ahead of my reading for next semester 💙📚 #BookSky #EduSky #AcademicSky
