It’s easy for me to jump straight to being overwhelmed by everything that is to come from the start of a new academic year. So instead I just wrote a list of positives from the previous year and some goals or things to look forward to in the next year ☺️

Back to work after a lovely 11 days travelling around Sicily 🇮🇹 Now feeling refreshed and ready for the academic year! Although, my eyes are not enjoying the transition from the beautiful views to my laptop screen! Lots of screen breaks will be needed today…

Whilst walking through a park in Palermo, I came across this bench where it was ‘prohibited’ to use digital devices. A nice little reminder to enjoy your surroundings without digital distractions 📱🎧

I don’t know how I’ve managed this, but I’ve hit a 75 day streak of learning Japanese on Duolingo! I’ve always really struggled with learning languages since my memory sucks, but I’ve really been enjoying this!

Looking for some assistance pretty please! I saw something on here about someone incorporating an aspect of income generation into a social media motivations scale and but now I can’t find anything about it. I’m not sure if it was from #Cyber2024 but any help would be great ☺️

So I’ve decided to start to learn Japanese. I have always been quite awful at learning and remembering languages (sometimes even the English one) so this is going to be fun 👀

A weekend well spent getting some much need R&R to get me through the remainder of the marking period. There is no better place for some rest than on the beach! I always underestimate how important it is to take a break. This was well needed! ☀️🌊
