Hello T.
Today I feel a little tired, I suppose it is because it is already night, my throat hurts and I am considering taking some caffeine or going to rest.
I am writing to you briefly to tell you about my “successful” completion of the first semester as an Erasmus. At least academically. All passed.
Figure 16: Valladolid (Spain), December, 2013: I successfully passed the exams thanks to long study sessions in the library like this one.
In general, I am in quite a good mood and I have taken this past week to organize my schedule and prioritize my projects. Re-adapting to student life after my trip to Morocco. (There is a chronicle of the journey in hand; hands paralyzed unfortunately …)13 Still, I think I want to do too much and often go overwhelmed. I plan to write down a motivating message about the difference between moments of inspiration and day-to-day work. Maybe it will work. I’m not sure how to carry out everything I want. I have a schedule with almost no breaks, it is somewhat unreal… In moments of euphoria I write down my ideas and fit them into non-existent hours throughout the week.
I would also like to write more (I have noted down to write at least once a day, either reflectively or communicatively, like right now). With the subject of writing many times it is the first impulse to start writing what I lack. If you have any advice on how to remedy that primordial spark, I would really appreciate it.
Anyway, let’s stop egocentric banalities. I would like to know about you, your family and your projects.
I hope everything is going well.
An affectionate hug and thanks for your time.
Carlos
