2020-05-05 What a Girl Really Wants š·
Yesterday was a long day. Just a blur. And Iām tired. I had that thing happen again, where I was inspired to write something but I was in the middle of something else and couldnāt just drop everything to get that down. I thought, foolishly, for the hundredth time that it would linger around long…

This has been a long week and Iām happy to be nearing the end. I gave myself a goal to finish my Thesis before Friday so I could just let go for the weekend. The format check by the program coordinator and thumbs up from the second reader are the only other hurdles before itās…
