7.50am- Up, showered, and dressed- ready to tackle the busy Monday ahead 8.04am- No coffee can be had today because my beloved machine is not working (I am in the process of getting it fixed).

I normally post blog posts for my series ‘operation gtfo’ which are all aimed around me trying to finish my PhD. But the truth is, I am not always productive and ticking things off my to do list.
