Hopfield is Writing

  • Missed Connections

    I stare at my reflection, too bored to watch the clothes tumbling anymore. It’s so loud in here but it’s something you get used to. I’m lucky that it’s a twenty-four-hour laundromat. I like coming down here when the gossipy… Continue reading

  • End of Semester

    I haven’t written in a while because for a long time I just didn’t know what I was doing. But the semester is now over for me, all my assignments are done, and I’m just on holidays awaiting grade releases.… Continue reading

  • What am I Doing?

    I’m back at that point where I don’t know what I’m doing. I love writing. I really do. But sometimes I feel like studying it is a combination of learning important things and being forced into a box. Which I… Continue reading

    So I’m in my first week of uni. I only have one tutorial in the first week and doing my prep work for it in the past two days has started something of an identity crisis within me. I’ve chosen… Continue reading

  • 2 for 2019 so far

    I’ve made a resolution to read much more than I have been and starting at the end of last year I’ve been buying books and starting to read them in order to get back on track. I wanted to be… Continue reading

  • 2019
