What is Kiwi up to lately?

A lot, thank you for asking. I had to force myself to only set a limited amount of projects now because the pile of shame grows unbearable otherwise. So here's what's currently up in life:

Active

Three sets of 12 push ups

Upper body strength is important, I can do a solid 7 reliably. I think my tendency to expect impeccable form is not helpful, this would be so much easier if I would just cheat.

I've been really working on my front splits

Sometimes I feel like I'm getting somewhere

Finish that Block Pattern

It's almost finished, come ON

Relearn maths for the inner child

having to do university level maths when I barely enjoyed it in school is terrifying, but I am an idiot optimist till the end

Semestertime!

I'm blocking one project slot so I can focus on my studies.

2025

Made a pair of faux leather pants fit somewhat.

Finish seams on clothes my friend gave me

Bachelor Thesis

(Kinda silly to put this on the same level as some seams, huh?)

Vacation near the sea

Workshop on HTML and CSS for Designers
