Man has not a single right which is the product of anything but might. Not a single right is indestructible: a new might can at any time abolish it, hence, man possesses not a single permanent right.

I love NaNoWriMo. Been trying since 2008 on and off when time allows. I haven't won it yet but I just enjoy the exercise of writing new characters and settings. Had to get the notebook for the art and for sending some money to a cool organization. I'm debating some new ideas for NNWM this year...
A video-short of my snow day shenanigans and planning. 💜

I was watching ParkerNotes’ latest video on YT about the best way to expand your vocabulary and it pushed me to set up a vocabulary notebook at 3 am in the morning lmao. I liked the method he explained in the video, and despite having failed attempts at keeping a physical and digital word bank, I think I could make this work for me.
I simplified the method of adding a word into my vocabulary notebook. First, I write the word, specify what type of word it is (noun, verb, etc.) and then I jot down its definitions from the Merriam-Webster website. I don’t include the word’s etymology as to not make things complicated.
To increase the chances of me not dipping out on this journal, I decided to use a precious notebook of mine which is the A6 Muji Open-Flat Notebook in Black.
I had a good experience writing in this notebook so far which alleviates the urge in me to write stuff sloppily in it and just overall treating it as if it were disposable (do any of you do this with notebook you don’t like?).
That’s all I have to say for now. I look forward to writing more notebook-related entries in this blog. Thank you for reading and have a nice day :-))
Studying isn't about grades, it's about falling in love with a subject.
I've officially started my last year of college and have never felt more excited. These years have been a process of learning to love learning new things, but i think I've finally started fully appreciating the opportunity to study subjects that not only interest me, but will also help me in my life and career post-university.
I'm grateful to have professors that are passionate about the courses they teach, I'm grateful for the friends that are just as dedicated to learning as I am, with whom I can always discuss interesting details and debatable theories.
It's a new year and I'm grateful to become a new me.

Trying to get back in the studying mood is the hardest part of studying.
There's still time left until my midterms, but I don't want to cram a lot right before the exams, so I'm trying to get back on track. Productivity level is remarkably low.
Any advice on getting motivated to study?
Mama and Phoebe nights… means corny romance films until till she’s milk drunk.. then when dad comes home from trivia.. I can take a nice bath if I’m lucky 🧖🏼♀️👏🫠

I had the pleasure of working with Francois Vigneault at Scout Books again, on an illustrated set of their blank mini notebooks. My theme was, fantastically, the cosmos, so I went completely indulgent with this and decked out the constellations Virgo, Capricorn, and Perseus in gleaming gold armor. My kind of project! This was a lot of fun and I'm psyched to have been paired with the talented Lisa Perrin whose beautifully illustrated set will be released in conjunction.
If you're in Baltimore a week from today, we will both be at Trohv in Hampden for a little release party for the notebooks from 6 - 8pm. Stop by, pick up a set and say hello! Event page here. Hope to see you there!
