📔 classes: Human Origins. We talked about some political stuff regarding America which is pretty common in the class. It was intresting if not dread inducing as we live there.

📝 study time: 26 minuets. A dreadfully low study time but i was feeling fatigued all day and had my cane with me it was so bad.

🔆 day ramble: I had a mostly good day, but I couldnt go to fencing practice because of my fatigue. I have muscle spasms and weakness in my legs and it can make my whole body tired if I'm on them too long. But we stay strong and keep going.

Where I've Been

I had a really rough go of it mental health wise during my first and second semester, and being honest it demotivated and drained me. I've got a lot of mental health issues and various disorders, but I'm trying hard to stay on my medication to avoid further episodes.

I think there's something to be said about how high education system deals with people in struggle and strife, but I don't think this is the post to talk about it. Know I have thoughts though.

All things considered my passion has not died, thankfully. So I will be returning to this blog, and trying to return to my academic aesthetic. With glee I might add. I'm happy to be back, and I want to try hard again and be hopeful. I'll never be naive again, but I can be happy.

Starting with the summer semester I will be doing a 100 Days of Productivity challenge with a twist!! But I'll get into that in another post, for the rest of this semester it will be back to my normal daily blogging updates.

Peace and Love for all,

Cadaver

📝 study time: 4 hours, it was split up over the day, but still like a goo's hunk of time.

☕️ work: I had a shorter shift today, but also burned myself on coffee lol. It didn't hurt though.

🎧 song of the day: Calm Me Down by Mother Mother. Just a jam.

🔆 day ramble: I've been up since 4:30am and haven't had a single nap all day I'm literally on the verge of collapsing like a pile of bones. But I made quesadillas for the first time so that's nice.

📔 classes: Anthropology, Composition, and Sociology.

📝 study time: 30 mins but I plan on doing a late night study session lol

☕️ work: Worked 4 hours ish today and learned that walking in heels is easier for me to work on than flatter shoes.

🔆 day ramble: Mostly kind of a blur, but I'm trying to feel better about things and feel more motivated to kind of exist. I did have DnD today though so that's nice at least. I also had a really cool smart person moment in class which was nice.

My apologies for the radio silence the past few days, my mental health took a turn and I didn't feel motivated to post, while I'm not feeling fully recovered I do want to try and keep up with this account so all will be back to normal tomorrow night when I do my day entry, thank you for your time :).

📔 classes: Anthropology, Composition, and Sociology. They were all super fun and interesting, just going over the syllabus and figuring things out.

08.20.24

☕️ work: We were crazy busy today with a teacher and staff appreciation sale thing, free drinks for staff and faculty, we served like 120 people! Another thing is I'm learning the benefits of chugging smoothies when you can't eat readily, they're so so good it's awesome.

🎧 song of the day: Sarah by Alex G. I got home from work and ended up looping this song feeling kinda depressed, but then looped Buttercup by Jack Starbur and felt a bit better.

🔆 day ramble: Super busy day at work and ended up coming home and feeling a bit of a depressive spiral, but that's just how it goes sometimes. It'll get better with some time, plus I have a lot to be excited about with school starting tomorrow!! It'll be so much fun.

🔆📝 HOW TO KEEP YOUR LIFE ORGANIZED 📝🔆

1. The 3 most important tasks. Write down the top 3 tasks you need to do during the day. Start your day with them, and then you won't have another day where you've managed the small things and there's no time left for the important things.

2. Make a task list. Every morning, make a list of tasks that you need to do during the day. This list will help you stay on top of your scheduled to-do's and make you more organized.

3. Do only one thing at a time. When you focus on just one thing, the work progresses a lot better than if you do several things at once, jumping from one thing to another.

4. Do it now. If something needs to be done, do it right now. Don't put it off for a minute, because then you'll find other reasons why that action needs to be postponed or not done at all.

5. Clear your workspace.Remove from your field of vision all unnecessary and superfluous things that can distract you.

6. Simplify, simplify, simplify! Find methods to simplify your actions so you can get your things done in less time with less effort.

7. Keep things in order. You don't want to throw things around your apartment or office. Put each thing in its place and then you will not need to spend time looking for them.

8. Sign up for a time planning service. Nowadays, there are many different services on the internet that help you plan and do what you have planned. You will be able to keep your to-do lists under control, work on them through your phone, get reminders on your phone or e-mail and more.

9. Examine your daily routine.Analyze your days. What takes up the most of your time, what you are often distracted by, what activities do little good. Try to remove habits from your life that interfere with your life.

10. Add color. Those who like to work with different colors can try creating a to-do list in different colors so you can see important to-do's at a glance.

11. Let others do.Some to-do's are worth delegating to other people (work or home).

12. Be positive.If you are not able to make your life organized in one day, you should not despair. Try, try, try and you will see that you and your life will start to change.

13. Set goals. It helps a lot to speed up the process of work if you clearly see the end goal you are moving towards.

14. Set a deadline.Understanding that you have a definite time limit on a task, you will be less distracted and relaxed.

15. Encourage yourself. When you finish some hard work, an important task or some project, then do something nice for yourself, maybe even celebrate the event. Positive emotions will help you in the future and make life more joyful.

☕️ work: Still training as it's only my second day, but I'm starting to learn smoothies and getting better at answering customer questions kinda. Still just the start, I'll get there.

🎧 song of the day: Nasty Dog by Sir Mix-A-Lot. This song has been stuck in my head since it started trending on tiktok.

🔆 day ramble: Had D&D today, but other than that it was pretty borning. Just waiting for school to start and waiting to start working at my job, it's all so much waiting, I'm excited for Wednesday! Finally the ball will get rolling and I can really start my college year!
