Finished Reading First Textbook for the Semester
I feel so accomplished. I am done reading my biopsychology book. It was not too big, only 18 chapters, but it always feel good to finish a textbook. It is a lot different then finishing a regular book because with a regular book you get an ounce of enjoyment reading it, and with a textbook you are focusing on every single word in the book and try to cram as much of it as you can into your memory.
Finishing a textbook is always a sign of semester coming to a close. Feels good to be one step closer to the goal. This also means that four brand new textbooks are just around the corner.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

There are two wolves inside of me, lol. Some days I want to be a “designer”. Other days I want to be a “developer”. On the days I find myself wanting to feed the developer, it’s often because making something “work” seems easier (and more impressive) than...

Robert Jon & the Wreck at The Tin Pan I have lived in RVA, and before that Fredericksburg, for over 20 years. I have looked at shows at The Tin Pan on multiple occasions. Every time I passed, because the idea of seeing a loud rock and roll show in a dinner...
