T-minus 3 days before my #PhD fieldwork kicks off! 10x Wednesdays of GMing a #folklore based, co-created #TTRPG with #homeschool volunteers. I'm excited and terrified all at once!! Exploring #learningthroughplay beyond Early Childhood Education.

Of course, a mere nap after submitting the first draft saw new ideas bubble to the surface about how to improve my writing. I suspect that it's not the power of the Nap (although I'm a fan), but the act of letting go that released the pressure of meeting a deadline and in so doing freeing my mind to start being creative again. Things you learn in #PhDlife 💁‍♂️
@phdlife @phdstudents
Just got to that point where you physically can't look at your writing anymore, and sent draft 1 of my first article (ever) to my supervisors. I've worked the life out of it and am not happy, but I'm dead inside...

Edging back into the world of the living. Found this between the birds.

5 Drinks to know me:
- Water (lots)
- Coffee (home stock)
- Winter Melon tea (冬瓜茶)
- Bomba Energia (Vida e Caffe)
- Strawberry milkshake (treat)

Is it just me, or is existing really rather a lot lately?
Any thoughts on the writing of
Bastard!! - Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy - (Netflix Anime)?
So I set foot out of the house today. Walked along the beach to the barber and cleaned up. Then stopped at a small eatery because the cook looked cute  Is this... Real?
