Goethe, Freud and Hemingway: Finals Preparation

-
Never without tea, flashcards and some snacks!

Hello fellow chatter boxes!

I am actually quite angry at myself for blogging right now because there's still so much I have to get done today but ohh well... (I feel like "oh well" has recently become my motto for way too many things, oops)

My final oral exams of my Matura take place on the upcoming Monday and my brain has turned into mashed potato consistency. Although I have chosen my absolute favourite subjects for my final oral exams (German, English, Psychology and Philosophy) I'm not really having the time of my life right now. I did start to study on time, but definitely didn't go with my study agenda I had planned out a month ago, that was already really tight and additionally to it already being stressful I also slacked off the last few weeks, telling myself that I need a break after my written exams at the end of May which was totally a very horrible excuse to lie in my hammock and enjoy the sun.
Anyways, I have to roll with it, the end is near.
Additionally to my studying stress, I have also moved house, so there's a lot of work to do as well and I feel like throwing my new plates against the wall, I am becoming insane!!!

Retrospectively, today was successful though. I managed to practise for four topics in English (two of which were supposed to get done yesterday *scolds at myself*), 5 chapters for German, which I feel pretty confident about, only one has not completely managed to stay in my brain) and now I only got Psychology and Philosophy left. I need to revise 2 topics that I didn't manage yesterday and should also finish my summary of two other P&P topics that are driving my insane. I had already finished summarising all my chapters for all subjects weeks ago, until my P&P teacher decided on Monday that it was a good idea to add some topics last minute. Not nice, sis!

Now I'm procrastinating a little until my mum finishes work and brings some McDonald's, the highlight of my day (how sad 😂).

We'll see how much I actually get done after dinner, because usually after 7pm my temptation to watch a few episodes of The Vampire Diaries becomes irresistible...

I'll keep you updated!

Cardboard Boxes and Wall Paint: Moving Update #1

Current living room "decor"... Heeellooo! Currently blogging in my pyjamas in my bed at almost lunch time but hey- still have about three weeks left until I have to take a header into the deep sea that is adult life. So for now, I'll enjoy getting my laundry washed and my floor swept because that's gonna come to an end veeeery soon. But don't get me wrong- I'm also really excited for what's to come. My cups, plates and my very pretty copper kettle are already stored in my new kitchen's cupboards, and lovely plush pink tea towels are hung over the radiator to dry: feels just like home. I love that no matter what cupboard you open- it's just so ME. Like- I love to choose wall paint and curtains and planning the tiniest details. Moving actually is really fun- and a free workout, if you keep the dozen cardboard boxes in mind that I have carried in and out of my new home. There's still so much to do- so many shelves to build, curtains to sew

Happiness is an inside job...

...don't assign anyone else that much power over your life. The past few weeks have not been easy. I have cried. I have screamed. I have hated. I have loved. but most importantly I have learned I have laughed I have lived I have loved. Break ups are never beautiful. No matter if someone cheated, lied and left or if someone held your hand, hugged you tight and left. No matter if he was an asshole or the love of your life- he must not be the reason for your happiness or the reason for your hurt. The only one you should give that amount of power to is solely yourself. so get up- lace those running shoes and run those kilometers hit those keys and write that essay rock those heels and get out to party!

It's time for new adventures!

And suddenly you know that it's time to start something new and trust the magic of new beginnings. Hi there! I can't really believe that today was actually my very last day as a student! Although I am glad that I can check off another thing on my "goals" list, it feels incredibly strange to somehow just not be a student anymore, since that's what I've been for the last 12 years, I have met most of the people I value most in the halls of my school and I can't believe that I'll have to get on with my days without my 13 amazing classmates, who feel like so much more- family.  Being a very small class and spending more than 30 hours per week together in one room for four years, we formed a bond like no other class. It makes me sad that this time has come to an end, however I feel incredibly... ... grateful for all the memories I've made ... thankful for having been able to go to a school in an advanced and stable country that allows me to
