A couple weeks ago I handed in my final assignment of the year, this assignment will determine whether I can participate in my internship or not. The internship has been in planning since February, I've signed the contract, but I'm terrified. It's going to be in a different country which is exciting, and I'll be living with my grandparents that I haven't met since 2018. I have to send an email to ... » Continue Reading
As per usual I disappeared for a while. It wasn’t intentional or anything I just got busy with uni, drowning in assignments would be an exaggeration it’s mainly poor time management and procrastination on my part, like at least I get the highest grade on the assignments I hand in, even if they’re 3 weeks late… hahha.. it’s not actually funny. I just handed in an assignment that was due the 10th of... » Continue Reading
Yesterday and today we got to practice cleaning and removing varnish from an artwork as part of our conservation practice. It’s very fun, however this painting was probably in a house with a smoker (not surprising considering it was dated between 1800-1900) so there’s a strong scent of smoke on the backside and a bunch of nicotine stains esp » Continue Reading
Been a little while since I was on here last, I’ve been so busy with uni starting up again, the skating season starting, prepping for my first competition and so on. The days are long and tiring, waking up at 6am traveling 1h40min to uni, classes from 9am-5pm, dinner and head from uni to practice, usually not home before 10pm, pack lunch for the next day and get ready for bed. Repeat. But in the w... » Continue Reading
So I haven't been active for the past few days because I was at a convention, NärCon to be specific. I had a lot of fun. I arrived on Wednesday, got picked up from the station by my friends, and we went to the hotel to drop off our stuff, after which we went and got our entry bands and then went to eat dinner together at a fast food joint. I'm not a big fan of fast food, but I don't mind ChopChop.... » Continue Reading
Went swimming in the sea today. The weather's been really hot the past couple of days, and I decided to go down to the beach where I live to see what treasures I could find, but when I arrived, I noticed there was no one there! Awesome! So I went on scouring the shores for treasures when I looked up and out into the water. No stinging jellyfish! I took a step into the rocky waters, and it was so p... » Continue Reading
As the title implies, I went to one of my favorite spots in the forest to darn my sock. It's been quite warm today, so the shade from the oak tree was a nice reprieve from the sun beaming down as well as shielding me from the few droplets of rain that came periodically. Some may ask why I don't just buy new socks instead of fixing my threadbare ones, and the answer is simple. I like my socks, an » Continue Reading
So I'm finally back from skating camp, wooo! I was there for two weeks; it was fun and all, although being the oldest one there sort of makes it a little less social, I guess? I mean, I really feel out of place when it comes to the topics the younger ones talk about. It usually ends up with me retreating back to the room to rest rather than speak and hang out with the others since I'm not interest... » Continue Reading
