rant

ive been feeling so envious of my friends lately and i don't like it

it's like whenever they achieve something that i wish for my ideal self, i start thinking to myself "why is that not me, it should be me" and then a self deprecating thought follows, "maybe it'll never be me". my mind chooses to completely ignore the struggles my friends have gone through to get where they are and do the things that they are doing

i feel guilty feeling this way about people so close to me, people who confide in me, whose struggles i know but im not sure how to navigate through this

hmm maybe i should start by making a list of things i want for my ideal self and then work towards them slowly

took a class on the sociology of gender in my last term of first year, it was intimidating because everyone was so knowledgeable but i became more confident towards the end ୧⁠(⁠﹒︠⁠ᴗ⁠﹒︡⁠)⁠୨

these notes are from one of the last units - Gender, Science and Technology

holika dahan go brrrrr

i was texting my friends — one of whom's (desi) parents agreed to let her go for a foreign trip — about how i wish i could also go somewhere far away for a trip and then realised that's such a slay study motivation ♪⁠ヽ⁠(⁠･⁠ˇ⁠∀⁠ˇ⁠･⁠ゞ⁠)

I'd study so hard that foreign universities offer me scholarship (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

that would be so cool ngl

on the negative side, homesickness is a horrible monster

i feel so homesick rn when my uni and hostel is like 45 mins away from home

imagine how bad it'd be continents away from home (⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠)

A pretty pink glance at my Thursday morning featuring my notes and an excerpt I picked from a beautiful memoir I finished 🤍

Hope everyone has a beautiful day <3

random uni photo dump

second year of uni is over!

felt like it was yesterday that i moved in, all excited for the new year and it's suddenly just over :(

also technically it's not over because i have an abnormal psychology exam still left tomorrow but most of my exams/jury exhibitions are over and i feel sad ngl

but anyways i will try my best to study for the last exam after a cute dinner i had last night while watching apothecary diaries (love maomao sm)

till next time <3

this felt nice~~~

i love languages sm ⁽⁠⁽⁠ଘ⁠(⁠ ⁠ˊ⁠ᵕ⁠ˋ⁠ ⁠)⁠ଓ⁠⁾⁠⁾

studying spanish prior to an exam > being fortunate enough to visit Barcelona this summer

work hard, play hard💫
