hi everyone,
just wanna say that i’m going to be pretty inactive for the rest of the year bc i’ve gone back to college. it’s going to take up a lot of my socialization and reading time. i’ll try to hop on here and there but don’t promise any interactions. the most reading i’ll be doing involve my textbooks. 😭
happy reading!

Good on you, len! Sounds like a hell of a lot of mental work, but if anyone is up for that, it’s you! I did two degrees myself in my younger years and, lord help me, one of them was also a health/stem type of study. It’s a lot but damn it’s rewarding to build on your knowledge base and practical life skills. You’ll smash this!!!! Books and GR’s folk will be here when you surface. Good luck!!! Xxx
Goodluck! I dont envy your workload but I am sure that you will smash it. I hope you get time for a few great books between all the textbook reading!
meags,thank you! 😭 i never thought i’d willingly take so many science classes but here we are. it really is rewarding. in the us it tends to give you more opportunities too compared to more liberals arts degrees. i’m really hoping it’ll pay off.
evie,thank you! fingers crossed because i’ll need it haha. i usually read as “therapy” but it won’t be as possible this time. 😂
Best of luck with your classes, Len! 📚✨ You’ve got this 🙌 Don’t worry about being less active, we’ll all be here cheering you on. 💛😊
Hey, textbooks also count for the reading challenge lol. Sometimes we need to make a change and take a new course in life, no wrong in it. Taking a time off social media is also not such a bad thing, all things considering, either for health, pleasure or even studies lol. All the best for this new stage in your life Len <3. Never give up, never surrender!
federico,thank you! haha okay you’re right. if i finish the whole thing i’ll add it. 😂 i love goodreads but yeah, it can be draining in a lot of ways. i take a break from it when i need to because i always doomscroll here and get distracted so i can’t risk it. i’m sure i’ll still be able to read here and there just nothing like before. i’m really hoping this new journey and these new challenges in my life will be worth it.
So excited for you! I just joined undergrand myself and my reading situation has been looking dire, and so I totally understand!
Aww good luck len! You got this! I’m actually a paralegal student who was considering law school but now I’m considering getting an MFA in creative writing!
niharika,thank you! that's amazing! all the luck to you as well! it sucks how little we can read now but hopefully it will be a temporary situation.
caroline,thank you! that's awesome!! i used to feel guilty but now i'm realizing that i'm only 24 and sadly this is pretty common. i wish i knew what i wanted to do in life and whatnot but sadly for me it is a bit more complicated since i really don't know what that (1) think i'm passionate about it. all i know is that i love helping people haha, hence why i wanted to be an attorney. good luck to you on your (potential?) mfa journey!
Thank you len! You still have time to figure it out! I’m 27 and still figuring things out :) there’s definitely no time limit!
You will be missed but I’m glad you’re continuing college. We’ll be here when you’ve the time to reconnect and read 💜
I’m 48 and just started a Masters in Health and Wellness Management. Never too late to start something new.
Good luck, Len! You could always come discuss your textbooks on Goodreads. 😆 I hope that your classes go well and that you still have plenty of time for reading. 🙂
good for you! if I had my time over, Idk if I would have done law 😭 it’s never too late to change. good luck 🫶🏼
kathy,thank you!! that is amazing! i swear i need to stop thinking i need to have it all figured out haha. good luck to you on your masters!
jamie,lol true!! i’m sure someone someone here will be able to talk about them with me. and thank you!
dani,honestly same! i love education. i love learning. i liked my uni days so i’m kind of glad to be back haha.
I’ve always believed it’s never too late to learn something new! it’s been a year since college started for me, and it’s definitely getting harder and harder to keep up with reading the way I used to.. especially while trying to stay active here on goodreads, so I totally get it 😭😭 hope you still find time for a few great books in between all the textbook chaos<3 wishing you all the best and good luck, len!!
phi,thank you so much! i actually read A LOT when i was in university but i was doing a liberal arts degree so it was not as hard as doing a science/stem degree. i’m regretting not taking biology before but oh well. 😭
I had to take several A&P classes for my nursing degree, so I know how challenging it can be, but I also found it fascinating. Best of luck with this new chapter, Len! I have no doubt you’ll do great. 😘🫶🏻
You can't stop me from thinking about you, though! (Back in Denver, or new school?).Best, always.
xoxo
nancy,thank you! i admire all you nurses. i don’t want to go to nursing school and these subjects are kicking my butt.
julie,my big sister! i’m always thinking about you.
and no, luckily i’m back home. it’s an AAS degree so i’m taking it here; cheaper and the commute is 50 min :)









with that being said, i need to dedicate a lot of time to it. having graduated from college already, i know what works for me and what doesn’t, and i know what i need to do better, so i’m literally locking tf in and will be taking these next two years so damn seriously.
