-> single pass headshave, mostly ATG; coupled with a single WTG cleanup around the beard. Good shave.
I was in the mood for Tobacco and so a few soaps of mine came into consideration. FMOM is always a solid choice though, I really slept on this scent for a long time.
Nursing school exam prep is currently a shit show, thanks to sick teachers we’re mostly at home (except for three hours tomorrow) and learn whatever we deem necessary. We get some old exams by email from our teachers to familiarize with the weirdest way of asking questions ever, but that’s it. I used today for very theoretical concepts and basics of communication psychology, so this shave was also used as some form of palate cleanser from very dull activities.
The good thing about this home schooling is the flexible schedule, so I can start whenever I want to; this is also a double edged sword however, since I tend to feel like I’m not doing enough and take to many breaks. Then I try to compensate by late night studying sessions. Well, nobody said it would be easy…

People in my field often joke that when it’s time for recurrent training, that’s when you get the most stuff done around the house. Anything to avoid studying!

Haha, it definitely used to be like this for me too! Now with the pre-exam panic, I tend to actually study but my inner perfectionist still says it’s not enough. At least I have a small group chat with 3 other classmates and the exchange there helps to repeat certain topics.
