Adult stuff that Schools don't teach you, about work and dreaming

Aim for the stars, NEVER give up on your dreams. You just need to learn how to make it a reality. Our time here is finite, the end result is the same for everyone. So, tell fear to go to hell and do whatever makes you feel like it's worthwhile been alive.

Learn the most important skill ever: How to deal with difficult people. From minors inconveniences, to personality clashes, to narcissistic cunts with psychopathic tendencies who enjoys making everyone's life a living hell (mobbing). No school, college, university, trade school or whatever is gonna teach you this. IT WILL SAVE YOUR SANITY. Especially when you don't have the luxury of losing a job. So take advantage of some sweet internet and find resources about this. (Z Library is free and safe)

Expand your skill set. Don't stick with only one thing, learn practical and technical stuff related to your line of work. For example: In film school everyone wants to be a director or a writer, which is great but it takes time, in the meantime learning about editing, sound, lighting, props, wardrobe, etc, can open many other doors. This will pay your bills while you're dreaming. So, take your time to analyze what skills are useful in your work and learn.

Fuck the unpaid internship once graduated. It's slavery with pretty words. If you're still studying, you can (and should if you have time) participate in those unpaid projects, volunteer jobs, and all that; but never ever after getting your [title]. You are valuable, no matter what any company says, and you didn't spend countless hours of effort and sacrifice to not be paid. If you apply point number 3, you will gain experience while also getting money. No amount of experience is worthy. It's like influencers wanting to pay with exposure.

Networking, 90% of the time it's not about your talent but who you know, no matter what kind of job you are doing. And I'm not necessarily talking about nepotism. Sometimes if you know a person they can say: "Oh yes, Clara is a friend and she's excellent at her job. You should consider her." Humans are social creatures, we value the opinions of those who we are friends with or respect. Don't be fake, just be nice and try to get to know your coworkers and people from your field. (There are also books about this if socializing isn't your forte)

(Feel free to reblog and add more stuff. We all know we need this 💀)

I've graduated from the University this summer and already tried couple of jobs. I wanted to have a rest till the end of the summer and started to work at the book store.

I have a Bachelor's degree in education but I didn't want to work in that field because it's more then just teaching, it's also instilling some kinds of ideas that I don't support.

Soo the first job. It was at a book store and it lasted only 1,5 months. I liked it but feet were in hell.

After a month of working there my cousin invited me to an interview in logistic company which is also not connected with my degree. And I was/am far away from economics. But I gave myself a try. Honestly, I thought that I failed. But I didn't. And now I quite like this job. But it's been only a week 😅

Anyway I just wanted to say that even if you don't know or can't do anything give you a try. Who knows where it can bring you.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Actually I wanted to tell about plans to get back to language learning and workingout, because of the work I lost in my schedule, but my thoughts led me to another point 😄

arabic poetry is so beautifully yet painfully romantic, i mean “they asked “do you love her to death?” i said “speak of her over my grave and watch how she brings me back to life" and “because my love for you is higher than words, i've decided to fall silent" could have got jane austen crying and shaking

Just wanna share with you my new pc wallpaper. It's the first time I've done something like that. I hadn't a clue that I could change something other than the picture. (I did my best to explain what I meant 😅 I hope u got it)

Also I had to do it twice because for the first time I did for the wrong screen size (It's 1680*1050). It took me about 2 hours but I'm really happy with the result.

Just wrote short composition about weather in Korean. While writing have learned and repeated(?) some words on this topic from Talk to Me in Korean.

The composition:

(Honestly I hate winter. The weather was cold. The temperature in my city reached -30 degrees. Also it was very snowy and windy. I hope the spring will be warmer than this winter (because sometimes there might be snow in May and very low temperature in the middle of April)

By accident learned the difference between 'to learn' and 'to study'. Honestly, these two verbs always confused me. And now I've finally understood. Yeah after a few years of studying 😅 But better late than never.

How I got it:

To study is about to be taught by books, courses, teachers and it's more about theory.

To learn is more about practice and understanding things that you didn't know (does it sound right?).

I just wonder what will come of blogging in foreign language. Will it make it any better or maybe I'll become more confident in it?

Just taking short notes in a foreign language (English) about life and studying. Trying not to use translators so feel free to correct my mistakes.
