February - A month of falling in love with academics 🤎

[studyinrain]

today was great! i’ve recently started practicing yoga in the mornings, and i’m loving it so much. other than yoga, i make sure to do physical activity during the day, and today it was walking.

after that, i spent the afternoon planning my upcoming academic year and the rest of my plan & goals for the remainder of this summer.

🌟 i’m using an excel sheet to track my performance in each course i’m studying. basically, it helps me determine which topics i’m confident with and which topics i’m struggling with, so i know what topics to study and work on everyday (start with the weakest topic).

–discrete math (sets): completed lesson videos

–sociology readings for class #2 pg. 1-2

thinking about modern au Kabru

ivy league college student, probably studying law and political science on a full scholarship. first time living away from Milsiril so he has to promise her, yes mom i’ll call you at least four times a week, no mom i don’t need your amex black card, yes mom the normal credit card is fine i need to learn how to budget like a Normal Person (it has a limit of $20k — that’s not normal Kabru).

Milsiril insists for a long time that she’ll just get him a house off campus so he can have his own space (aka a place she can drop by anytime and possibly live a few months out of the year just to be close to him) but Kabru puts his foot down and tells her the best way he’s gonna make friends is by living with other students (bye mom).

his floor in the coed dorms is the party floor and he always makes sure to invite everybody (his nightmare is accidentally leaving anyone out and having them think that he doesn’t like them). somehow it’s always a good time, everyone leaves with more friends than they came with, it never gets totally out of control, and plenty of girls who are interested in him (and a lot of guys too tbh) bring tons of baked treats so there’s always free food. Kabru is the RA’s favourite person to have in the building (even though Kabru himself is messy but most of the people he’s friends with are nice and clean up after themselves).

he has a porsche (Milsiril gift for his 16th bday) but he’s adamant about not driving it unless he absolutely has to (because he doesn’t wanna look like a douche). BUT he never says no when his friends ask for rides (so he ends up driving all the time anyway). he actually contemplates selling the porsche and going for a more practical car but Mickbell is like ‘dude you are not taking this away from me.’ Kabru sighs and decides to keep it because his friends (Mickbell) like being chauffeured around in a fancy convertible (Rin, Holm, and Dia don’t care, they’re just glad they don’t have to walk to the grocery store).

he’s probably on a casual texting basis with most of his professors and you know he’s going to all their office hours, grabbing beer with them just to keep chatting about life outside of school. and that’s how he winds up in some super secret faculty group chat where he’s now privy to all the college administration gossip.

Kabru is elected for student council during his freshman year and he’s probably the favourite to be sc president one day.

he doesn’t really date (gets too in his head about how he doesn’t wanna ruin any friendships) but he does hang out one on one with a lot of girls and treats them all really well. he probably goes so far out of his way to be platonic that he flies a little too close to the ‘Just Like One of the Girlies’ sun, he kinda forgets that most people interpret it as flirting coming from him. which leads to a few awkward conversations. people feeling led on, a few angry jealous boyfriends, scathing dms about him being a girl stealing homewrecker.

it’s such a nightmare for him and he needs it to end right now. so he begs Rin to ‘date’ him for a week or two and then publicly dump him just so the entire student body gets the message that he is Just A Friend.

Rin stares at him for a few seconds. then she laughs. she laughs and laughs. she laughs for a crazy long time. and then eventually she goes, ‘wow you’re an asshole, Kabru. no i won’t be your fake girlfriend. you’re gonna suffer and i’m going to enjoy it.’

and that’s when Kabru has a moment of enlightenment. ok yeah. asking for that is probably really selfish and mean. maybe he needs to think about girls’ feelings more and that’s maybe more important than his deep seated need to be liked, and when has Rin ever been wrong about anything.

he apologizes. and so begins one of the more serious talks he’s ever had with Rin about being okay with not being liked.

he thinks he can really turn over a new leaf. the whole ‘not worrying about what other people think’ thing goes pretty well — up until Kabru meets the aloof professor for his Monsters and Myths class who keeps forgetting and mispronouncing his name.

Kabru has never needed someone to like him So Bad, he needs Prof. Touden to like him as a matter of life and death, and he’s willing to look stupid for it (fails a midterm on purpose to justify begging for one on one tutoring)

re: the excerpts you just posted, may i ask what program you use to write in... it looks really easy on the eyes

libreoffice!!!!!!!!! you can customise the colours of the workspace (i make it all low contrast grey but you can pick whatever). i'm a libre shill i recommend it to everyone as a ms word/excel/etc replacement. it's free and open source and has a UI similar to pre-2010 MS office (before they introduced the bastard ribbon)

Gold star to anyone who can find the sketchy comic thing this is the continuation of. I couldn't x'p but it is, the next part of an older thing, I remembered it pretty sure I saw it recently among my sketches or on my tumblr I don't know.

Surely a henge makes more sense than ~sudden nidaime in your bathroom random evening~

🛀 posting after a while. i'm still getting used to studying after such a long break. i've been very productive in other areas of my life, but studying remains a bit challenging. however, i will work on it, even if it means studying for just ten minutes a day.

it's easy to lie on the internet about studying just to feel a sense of accomplishment and to appear accountable. however, for my own betterment, i want to be honest and start this journey of becoming productive and restarting my studies. it will be slow, but i have a strong will to fulfill my goals. even on the days i don't study, i will try to understand the reasons and work on them.

anyway, today was another great and productive day after a while. i'm learning more about yoga and still striving to be more consistent with it. 🧘🏻‍♀️

📑 this time, i’ve attached my mathematics notes from today where i spent time working on the in-chapter exercises and then checked my answers. practicing is fun.

|| ༻`` 🦎 Monday — 29 Jul 24

I moved house at the start of this month so I've been very busy then, I went to meet some family which was lovely and celebrated a friend's birthday (it was such an amazing day, I'm so lucky to have the friends I have).

But in the past 3 weeks my mental health has been really low, I've very quickly fallen into very 'depressive' habits again that I'm still trying to get out of now — mainly sleeping in for hours and wasting away on social media for the whole day (my average screen time has been 6hrs), isolating ...

This week tho (from the 22nd) I've been at a summer school at the uni I want to attend and the structure has been great for me. My subjects there were maths, physics and chemsitry so every day we had different talks on those subjects, experiments (I made and tested asprin for the chemsitry one!), met some of the professors and students there and potential employers. I had a really great time. I talked to a few people but didn't stick with anyone for the week, the lunches were really nice, and the student assistants were so lovely. I was the only one that wanted to do straight chemsitry from this pathway and I made friends with one of the assistants becase of it (plus he was Polish too!). Luckily my friend who was doing psychology stayed in the same floor as me in the accommodation buildings so we slept over in each other's rooms each night. It was very fun. On the last day (apart from tripping and getting a massive bruise on my knee 😅) my group had to write 3 essays and I fully finished them last night. I really enjoyed the writing process. I think I definitely want to pursue research in the future.
