So I Indeed Got A Cold And The Only Thing That I Did Yesterday And Today Was My Internship Work And Slept

everyone please read this and share if you can.

Brazil is going through one of the worst climatic crisis ever seen.

i live in the southernmost state, Rio Grande do Sul. we have been suffering from extreme, nonstop rainstorms for a week now. the rivers are flooding, reaching 4-6 meters above their natural level. people are being rescued by helicopters, neighborhoods are being evacuated. entire cities are slowly but surely becoming submerged in water. 60 people missing and counting. 32 deaths and counting.

and this is not new. last november also had a flood like this one. 50 dead, many material losses. it happened again this january, with thousands being left without power or water for days.

three catastrophical disasters within less than a year. three disasters only a few months apart.

this is not natural.

unsustainable agricultural practices and politics led to this. a complete disregard for nature led to this. greed led to this. always greed.

when it comes to the climate crisis, i cannot stress this enough: we need to act now if we still want to live. disasters like this are going to happen more often and they're going to be much, much worse. this flood is being considered the worst climatic catastrophe in the history of my state. i don't know how long it will take for another bigger one to happen and take its place. i just know it will be sooner than it should.

She needs academic validation but she's not working for it. She's me.

It's gonna work out. It's gonna work out. It's gonna work out.

some people need to study too often to remember their lessons and write exams. while some others can easily study their syllabus at the last moment and give their exams. some don't take notes, some do. some cannot read their material easily and need help. some can read and analyse a text on their own. there are still infinite number of possibilities when it comes to academia. it's how you choose what's the best for yourself. only you can find out what works for you. not the student next to you or the studyblr you follow.

Bolsonaro refused eleven proposals for Brazil to buy vaccines throughout 2020. That man and everyone involved with his government should be in prison.

I’d just like to say good luck to everyone taking SAT’s or Exams (or any tests for that matter) and I wish you the best of luck on them!

the worst part of studying is all the studying you have to do

me during the day: ah i'm so sleepy. i'm so fucking tired oh my god i can't wait to go to bed tonight.

me during the night: let's download the top 100 songs from 2010 and listen to them all while writing a novel and watching an entire season of something and maybe rearrange my room or read 2 books and complete my assignment which was due last week haha i'm so productive.
