Hey everyone!

I am absolutely sorry for my absence. I thought that finally submitting my dissertation would make me able to post more often, but oh boy, was I wrong!

Apparently, after a period of extreme pressure, the toll that it takes on you finally catches up… and I honestly have not had my head in the game since then. Not to mention, I am now in the process of preparing my thesis defense while I also deal with some medical issues that have been showing up for the past year.

Main point: it’s been way rougher than what I expected. There have been multiple times when I’ve tried to write anything that slightly resembles a post only to scrap it because it wouldn’t get anywhere, until I finally decided to take some real down time and not do anything.

However, I hadn’t realized how long it has been since I last posted. I am now feeling way more refreshed than I was before and I will be getting back at posting during the next few days. In the meantime, bear with me while I get back into the swing of things.

Thank you for your patience!
Joana
