a busy start to fall semester ♡

 school is just killing me right now! i am falling so behind in chemistry and calculus: as soon as i catch up in one, i'm immediately behind in the other! it doesn't help that chemistry is flipped classroom, where you watch hours of lectures at home and do problems in class.

it's so hard to make sense of things when you can't ask questions in person, especially when the teacher assistants (tas) use chatgpt to explain it to you: they can't even do it themselves! i understand they are busy students too, but they should have to take a refresher course before signing up to teach first time chemistry students. especially since one of them literally called me an idiot to the other ta after i asked him a question. like okay awesome.
 
anyways, i'm so swamped with work i can't even enjoy my neuroscience and english classes, but at least they aren't too difficult. i am falling behind on my fall movie list, but i just watched frankenweenie so i'm making slow progress. 
 
i think this weekend me and my boyf rowan are going to go to the pumpkin patch (i think it may cool down in florida this week) and then we can carve pumpkins! i think we're also going to paint some pottery and go bowling (it's super cheap on campus) and i can't wait! idk what i should paint yet, maybe some matching mugs and we can paint each other? i need to focus on my classes until my exams on wednesday, so i'll think about all of this later. 

 
 
           
    football game saturday (fsu vs uva, go noles!)    my stingray crewneck i made

i also had two people ask for commissioned patchwork items this week which is exciting and scary! i've never done customs, i just do what i like and if other people like it, awesome! also unrelated but fsu won on saturday and it was sooo fun to watch, i thought i was going to pass out though it was so so sunny and hot. i need to sew some more gameday outfits, i can't wait until baseball season so i can crochet an fsu jersey. anyways, how's everyone else's semester going? see you soon!
