DAY 12 - 2ND JANUARY 2017
What I'm grateful for today
The fact I've been (mostly) left to my own devices, meaning I've been able to have quality 'me' time
A random act of kindness I've done
Dyed my mum's hair
A random act of kindness someone has done for me
Um... not sure anyone's done anything tbh
Things I did well
Read some more of my friend's book and ordered a book I need off Amazon Prime
Something I could improve on
Reading faster
What I've achieved today
Read some of my friend's book, meaning I'm closer to being able to write a review about it
What I've done to look after my mental health
Nothing much tbh
Something I have to look forward to
Sleeping. My mum chucked me out of bed way too early for my liking

DAY 13 - 3RD JANUARY 2017
What I'm grateful for today
I'm going out soon to have a snack and some quality time with my older sister (she heads back to the US on Thurs
) in a bit
A random act of kindness I've done
Um not sure I've done anything...
A random act of kindness someone has done for me
My mum and dad let me nap rather than waking me up
Things I did well
I've read some more of my friend's book! Just 100 or less pages to go now
Something I could improve on
Still need to learn to read faster
What I've achieved today
Taking some time out for myself, and letting myself relax a bit. Also am now up-to-date with my therapy homework
What I've done to look after my mental health
Had a nap and hidden in my room doing things I enjoy
Something I have to look forward to
Snacking with my sister

No worries! I figured sometimes it's good to hear from someone much older (and thus notionally wiser, lol)
And thanks, was really nice to spend time with my sister

Tbh forgot you did music in Oxford. There were some music applicants earlier on in the thread asking questions, perhaps I could've tagged you

DAY 14 - 4TH JANUARY 2017
What I'm grateful for today
Having quality 'me' time for most of the day. Also, we're going out for a cheeky Nando's tonight
A random act of kindness I've done
Apparently I made smile
A random act of kindness someone has done for me
My dad didn't annoy me too much today
Things I did well
Finished reading my friend's book and wrote some reviews on some websites (as per his request)
Something I could improve on
Doing uni work
What I've achieved today
Read my friend's book and did my therapy homework (well, most of it)
What I've done to look after my mental health
Lay down in bed for a while when my body got tired
Something I have to look forward to
Cheeky Nando's

You are one cheeky Goatherd
If you want some motivation, I did 224 marks worth of chemistry questions in 2 hours + 2 hours of revision over 2 days and I've just finished and it feels so good.
Just shows that all that stressing out was silly - but it made me get it done and now I am chilling
You can do it
Uni work is go

I have issues with counting peaks on a spectrum basically
Spoiler:
TBH I have mixed genes. I seemed to be ok at French (used to be ok at German) and Eng lang from my Mum but also ok with STEM stuff which I get from Dad. I feel I'm not really AMAZING in either though. So when I picked my options I chose the ones I enjoyed/found more interesting which lead me onto the STEM route. Weird really

I know, right? Nando's FTW 
Yes, my friend is a philosophy academic and he's just released a book which went on sale in the States yesterday (delayed release for the UK, only goes on sale on the 26th here but we can pre-order via Amazon!). It's called Jesus Among Secular Gods. My friend sent me a proof copy of it and asked me to read it pre-release and write reviews about it on various websites soon after it came out. Finally finished it today!
What flavour pizza though? You're not one of these silly people who believe in putting pineapple on pizzas are you?

I like it very cheesy, with olives but my go-to is fiorentina or chicken/mushroom
or even vegetable
or pepperoni
basically food
Spoiler:
Yeah I'm targetted an A and getting Cs with work, I'm hoping now I'll get the chance to work more on strengthening it up to an A, just finding lots of little issues at the moment :/
