Survived to midyear for another semester. Kind of weird thinking about being on exchange this time last year, that passage of time sure is relentless.

Classes have wrapped up for the semester, just a handful of assignments to submit over the next few days. Definitely passed at least 2 subjects, the third is… maybe also fine? Hopefully? Earlier assessments have lower weighting than the finals so it’s not as easy to gauge since most of the grade for that one hinges on things I’m only just submitting now.
Been insanely tired recently, tracking sleep habits but looking back on food intake I realise things are getting… Out of hand. Relying on snack items rather than full meals; not for any dietary reasons but I genuinely don’t feel hungry in a way that has the capacity to become alarming if left unchecked.
It’s fine, just normal stress things.
Time gets away from me during term, but I was so happy to see my old friend Maja, even briefly, while they were in Melbourne for a residency with Kingston Arts.

The gallery exhibition at Mixed Zoning was a visceral experience, incredibly hyped to have attended the live performances on opening night.
In general site maintenance, the new downloads page is done. It’s listed up top as Printable and looks pretty dogshit overall, but it works so no more worrying about visitor permissions being intermittently revoked. Go ham, besties.
Updated the gallery too, nothing super crazy, just some things here and there from over the past year or so. Like this one of Narkaniis from last year:
2024, Narkaniis
Or this can tab bracelet that was more or less just a thinly veiled excuse to keep chugging off-brand energy drinks:

Just so we’re clear: I haven’t had a carbonated energy drink since April 17th but I am still chugging black coffee like it’ll compensate for the ongoing disaster that is my sleeping habits*.
*Pr0 tip: It doesn’t.
