i decided to do this 100 days of productivity challenge because ive been feeling like a zombie lately and coincidentally a lot of this kind of post have been coming up in my feed. so let's try it!

day 1 / 13th of september / tuesday

things i need to get done:

• all of my internship work

• finish the chapter im reviewing for my uni lecture

• organize my f*cking room cause i cant find anything in this mess

things i want to get done but thats ok if i dont because im coming down with something which is making me extra tired:

• study math for college applications

• read that tree book i'm currently reading or read that book about revolutions that i haven't started yet

i'll be back when the day is over to check what i managed to complete!

see ya later kisses and cheese <3

little note: this is also a little exercise for my writing skills in english because it's been a while since i wrote anything in this language. if you notice any spelling or grammar mistakes please!!! let!!! me!!! know!!!! portuguese is my mother tongue so it would be interesting if i could practice some other language since i dont have the time anymore to actually study my target languages :/ (french and spanish and i would always consume some material with more advanced words in english)
