things I’ve learnt in august 〜 1) sometimes you have to say no to the things you do want to do, so that you have time to do the things you really want to do. 2) idle time is as much a part of the work as the work itself. 3) where possible, spend august by the sea. 4) boundaries are important for your mental health and the people you love will understand, in time. 5) there is such a thing as too much oat milk (I'll miss you). 6) it's okay to play. 7) a meaningful life is just a series of meaningful days, so take the time to understand what a meaningful day looks like to you. 8) everything sounds better in french. 9) what I miss most about my granny, who recently passed, is her thick hungarian accent & her laugh. I'm not sure what the lesson is in that but it feels important.
