Yesterday: no essay
Today: too much essay.

I need to cut out 200 words but there's also so much more I want to say! I don't know how it took me until nearly the end of my degree to do anything on coffee, climate change and biodiversity but now I've got a lot to write about it.

But before the coffee essay editing begins, I must drink coffee!

If you have a way that you read books on a Mac, and are able to export the highlights, can you let me know? The formats I can use for this are either EPUB or PDF.

Things I've tried:
Apple Books highlights are terrible, full of character errors and copyright notices after each one, so please don't suggest that option.

Calibre reader: Can't see how to export highlights, also formats textbooks terribly.

Feel free to boost!

In architecture, an atrium (pl.: atria or atriums) is a large open-air or skylight-covered space surrounded by a building. Atria were a common feature in Ancient Roman dwellings, providing light and ventilation to the interior.

Found out today I passed the final module of my retail course! Just need it to be moderated, but once that's out the way I'll officially have level 2 qualifications in customer service for hospitality, cleaning principles, and retail principles. They're very low level qualifications, but something to put on my CV that will hopefully help 🤞

7 months of studying and I'm finally DONE. Honestly, I'm so glad to get it out the way, and I can finally focus on more interesting things - think I'm gonna start by learning how to use my camera and information for more tours at nufc 😊🐻

Interested in pursuing #SciComm as a profession? Then this new Master's program in Germany might be for you: tuition-free (also for international students), entirely taught in English, covering everything from #ScienceCommunication to #ScienceJournalism, #SciArt, public engagement and more.

Application period starts on May 1st.

This is going to be a little weird because it’s written for my much more developed and longstanding audience on instagram (many of whom have been with me for years), but I want to replicate what I’m doing over there so that folks know they can come here and find the same thing, so here it goes.

Because my focus on this microblog has always been to re-engage with educating, I don’t often get into the details of how I create my visuals here.

My goal is to create a visual that inspires a studious mindset, something that rehabilitates the idea of learning that we inherit from Western institutions, often as a rote and punitive practice. Learning is and can be a pleasure. So that’s what I aim to construct here.

But I also know many of you are interested in the how of how I create, so I wanted to incorporate more of that, both to show you what I use and also to share some of the de-influencing behind it as well.

Today I just wanted to highlight an ink I’ve been loving. I’ve been exploring the Filipino ink brand @inksbyvinta, a company with a mission to support education. So, I’ve been buying ink samples of their inks and trying to decide what I want to add to my collection.

A full bottle is a big commitment, which is why I’ve been testing samples first. A current favorite sample that I hope to add to my collection eventually is Pusan, this lovely, pale, color changing shimmer ink you see pictured. It has a beautiful silver shimmer and shades a more reddish purple with dark blues.

I feel inspired when I break it out and much more driven to create, even though it is lighter than my usual inks. I treasure that sense of joy.

QOTD: What is your go to writing color right now?
