It’s spirit week at school! Today was decades day. Perfect outfit for a day of subbing in one of my sped classes. They appreciated it. #SpiritWeek #SpecialEducation #SchoolPsych

Tomorrow kicks off National School Psychology Week and, in true form, I have nothing planned for it. So, hey. We exist. 🤪 If you work in education (or have school-age kids!), thank your school psychologist this week! #SchoolPsychWeek #SchoolPsych #Education

First time in grad school (or at least in college): stay up until 4am doing schoolwork. This time in grad school: wake up at 4am and start doing schoolwork. Side note: I hate paywalls. Why doesn’t my university have access to everything?! 😅 #DoctoralJourney #DoctoralStudent

My new virtual meeting background! Partner: “You don’t want your degrees in the background?” Me: “No, I’d rather they be on the wall that my desk is facing as motivation to keep going.” #DoctoralStudent #DoctoralJourney #Motivation #Books

How could one truly survive grad school without a partner bringing them breakfast to their office so they’re not just subsisting on coffee to get through a paper? Truly a team effort here. #GradSchool #DoctoralStudent #Grateful #Thankful

Today’s #selfcare is getting back to reading for pleasure, surrounded by pets. #MentalHealth #SelfCareSunday #CatsOfTwitter (dogs not pictured)

Please consider donating and sharing widely. I cannot fathom how many times I have stood on a subway platform and wondered if I was safe. Emine was not safe that day and she needs everyone’s support. Sending all my love. gofund.me/9f2b4672
