euphancolia

A mixed feeling, somwhere between euphoria and melancholy.

Imagine yourself in non-pandemic times making a great trip or even a whole Erasmus semester abroad. You are having a very good time and are maybe even a bit euphoric. Towards the end of your trip, there will be moments where you enjoy yourself a lot but also realize that this time will not last forever. That is euphancolia.

Procrastiscrub

Cleaning your flat in order to avoid studying.

I know I should have been studying for my exam yesterday, but I just couldn’t get round to it and ended up cleaning my kitchen instead. I usually end up procrastiscrubbing at time like this.

oddnique

a combination of odd and unique to describe absolutely obscure and exceptional moments that make you smile about the absurdity of life.

I had an oddnique moment yesterday evening when a housemate of mine came back from Stuttgarter Wasen. She was in a good mood though it had been quite an odyssey for her to get home using several transportation systems including, walking, hitchhiking, taking the train and finally the bike. Unfortunately, she lost her jacket but somehow found herself a new one. She also lost her phone and had severe problems with breathing in her tight dress. Eventually she found out that it was the phone she had kept in her dress that was preventing her from breathing.

stresslaxing

I spent the whole afternoon stresslaxing, lounging on the couch but feeling too guilty about my unfinished tasks to actually relax.

I sat stresslaxing watching a Netflix series all evening to help me chill before my exam. It just made me more nervous.
