[lizziestudieshistory]

hi! how do you recommend i should prepare myself for college? im currently in the final year of high school. in what capacity would i need to change myself for college? i plan on developing habits this year which can help me in college. your suggestions will be helpful.

Hi, sorry for taking a while to respond, I've been ill all week and wasn't sure what I wanted to say. I was partly uncertain because I think you are from the US? (Correct me if I'm wrong!) And your college experience is very different from university here in the UK. However, there are a few universal tips I can give for anyone leaving compulsory education and entering into higher education for the first time.

Firstly, don't think about this as changing yourself! It's just another step and you will naturally fall into it. Everything I THOUGHT university would be like ended up being a lot of nonsense. You'll naturally fall into your working rhythm and find your place wherever you end up going! Be your authentic self and you'll have a blast. Seriously, going to university should be the best thing you do for yourself, otherwise it's not worth it!

Secondly, habits/learning tips. This is an easier one to give advice for, but it will probably feel incredibly vague right now:

Learn to how to skim and scan texts when reading (they are different!). Start practicing now and you'll thank yourself during your first term! You rarely need to read a whole text, so learn how to quickly and efficiently find what you need by learning how to find key words and arguments. Make skimming and scanning your first instinct when reading academically. It's hard and you'll find yourself slipping into reading the whole book/article a lot to start with, but I promise you it will save you A LOT of time and frustration.

Start developing a good routine for you to study. Learn when, where, and how you're most productive and make this a routine. I've learnt that I CAN'T concentrate properly in the afternoon, my brain gives up! But it took me YEARS to internalise this and I wasted so many hours trying to work in the early afternoon. Now I structure my study days around when I work best (seriously I get up at 5:30 so I can be working between 6:00 and 11:30, then have the afternoon off before doing a couple of hours around 8:30 at night) it can be irritating but I have a good study/life balance now AND I'm more productive!

Experiment with note taking styles. I've gone through SO many different systems, platforms, and techniques for note taking. It took me a while to work out that I need to take linear, bullet pointed notes BY HAND to remember information. I used to type everything and it went in one ear and out the other. Now I take notes by hand and it's been revolutionary.

Start everything EARLY. Don't let yourself be that person pulling an all nighter to get an assignment in on time. Start early, give yourself time to reflect on what you're doing, and finish a couple of days before the deadline. This way you have a buffer in case something goes wrong. I was never the person working up until the last minute (I'm too anxious to do that to myself) but I watched friends have breakdowns because they didn't start early enough.

Learn to draft anything you'll submit for formal assessment. Don't be the idiot who writes an essay and submits it without checking it... It makes you look stupid and you'll lose marks. Take the time to do a second and third draft, your grades will thank you. And proofread (I say having not proofread ANYTHING on this blog...)

Get out of the habit of thinking I don't want to go to X lesson/class. You might think it's harmless now, but as soon as you leave compulsory education and don't HAVE to go to that dreaded class you won't. Then you start skipping lectures, fall behind, and risk failing. Again, I watched too many people do this...

Practice self-discipline and motivation. Right now you HAVE to work on things, so you do. When the external motivators go away all you're left with is your own drive. For some people (me) this was GREAT because I hated performing to school systems. However, for others they can crumble without a teacher encouraging you to work... Learn to motivate yourself. If you take ANYTHING from this list then work on this one, seriously it'll be a life saver!

Honestly, the rest will come with time. The biggest thing you can do is work out what kind of learner you are, how do you LIKE to learn when away from the routines of school. When, where, and how do you like to learn? Practice notetaking and reading skills. Otherwise, the rest will depend on what sort of college/uni you end up at and what course you're taking.

The final thing I want to say is not really a tip, but something I think EVERYONE on the cusp of going into higher education should hear. Find out why you want to learn. Higher education is a big investment. It's years of your life and A LOT of money (especially in the UK and US with tuition fees and living expenses!) It's a lot of time, energy, and resources to throw into something if you're only doing it because it's expected of you or you don't know what else to do with your life.

So take some time to think about WHY you want to learn. What is it about your specialism that makes you love it? Why is it your passion?

I live and breathe history because I can't face living without it. For me it's the discipline where I really get to understand humanity, explore what makes us "tick". I feel connected with people through history. I'm fascinated by, and a little bit in love with, humans. I don't necessarily like speaking to people! But I love trying to find out who we are through what our history says about us. Fundamentally, humanity is both terrible and beautiful! And through history I get to see the best, worst, and crucially the most mundane of human existence... And it's in that mundane space where I find myself happiest because that's who we are. It's why I study popular religion, not high Church movements... But it is the curiosity about people that drives me to learn more. THAT'S why I study, THAT is why I bothered to drag myself out of bed a half 5 on a freezing January morning in 2018 to get to an 8:30 lecture and listen to a truly MAD man tell me about 17th century English preaching styles (real story, I loved that lecturer deeply... I was the only person at that lecture and it is the reason I am the historian I am today, I have so much respect for him and I am STILL inspired by what I heard that morning!)

Anyway... Find your reason to keep going with your studies, even when it seems pointless and you'd much rather give up. I'm not saying it has to be a grand, abstract desire to understand humanity - I'm a pretentious humanities student who is far too fond of religion. Your reason could be anything, a dream job, a desire to "get out" of a situation, academic brilliance, spite! Seriously, it doesn't matter! As long as it gives you a purpose and drive to learn. Without that reason you'll be wasting your time.

So, before you go, have a think about why you're going to university at all and make sure it's strong enough to get you out of bed ridiculously early on a freezing January morning. That way you won't miss the most inspiring moment of your life. Or you'll get a fantastic degree. That's also nice 😉

-ANNOUNCEMENT PLEASE READ!

Hello! I know that this post is a long time coming, i keep hinting towards it but have yet to actually make it. (yes i am currently writing this at work- anyways). I kinda wanted to be transparent with everyone about everything and have a few things to address. I’ll mkae them bullet points so feel free to ignore the parts you really don’t care about. Okay enough of me rambling.

The layout of the blog

As you can see, the blog looks a little different ? why is that? Well, i’ve kinda decided i was tired of how things looked and i wanted to do something different. I’ve been active on this blog for going onto 3 years, and i’ve changed the layout very little. It’s time to try something new & also try different writing!

Kpop content

With you trying different writing, what does this mean for your kpop content? I will continue to write for kpop and the fandoms i currently write for, but i will not be branching out from those two fandoms. Quite honestly. Kpop writing just doesn’t bring me joy as much as it used to and the engagement i get varies as to what member i post which honestly just doesn’t motivate me. I also don’t get a lot of feedback or engagement currently, and its unmotivating. With this being said, my current fics as of this time ( starstruck & about love) are currently on two different routes. Starstruck is currently in it’s final chapters and im hoping and aiming for a release of all the chapters all at once. I’ll be able to distinguish that at a later date.

About love

About love has been my work for almost 2 years now. I’ve learned a lot about my writing since then, and how to manage plot lines. That being said, about love will be on a permanent hiatus for the foreseeable future. Why is this? Well once again engagement comes into play, along with the fact that where i wanted the story to go and where it was going just wasn’t happening. I am planning on revamping it, making the story more clearer & what i want it to say, and really sticking to it. Hopefully it’ll still be a smau, but for now, until i can plan it all out and really focus on it, it’s going to be on hiatus. I’ll be unlinking it from my nav fairly soon after this post goes up.

Other writing

I want to venture into other fandoms that aren’t kpop and make my side blogs more for reblogs & fic recs, and to be able to write what i want and enjoy my writing. There are fics that i’ve posted within the last year, that have been published for kpop, but when writing them i envisioned with either a different person or a different character. It’s something that i’ve been thinking about for a while, so i’m hoping that it’ll be interesting to those who are only here for kpop writing!

Posting

If you haven’t noticed, my posting schedule has gotten a bit… lacking for a while. I started a new job in june of last year, and it’s been a little hectic at my job. I work anywhere from 30-36 hours a week, and my days currently consist of (mostly) 3 12 hour shifts. I’m also responsible for a lot of things at work, so I keep busy most of the time. When i’m not busy, i’m supposed to be working on work stuff (this is being written with timings in consideration of not getting caught) and so most of my day goes there. My normal schedule i work 5 out of the 6 days we are open, and i’m here 6 hours each day ( there go my nights). Why am i explaining all of this? Well i typically write during the night and with my hectic work schedule also comes my school schedule. Recently i’ve been having trouble even working on school just because work takes up so much of my time. I’ve also had a LOT of personal issues within my life, outside of tumblr & work that has taken up mentally space & my time. I’m trying to get back into the rhythm of things and have a normal posting schedule for the fics that i am tying up, but for the foreseeable future, that will also be a compromise.

TDLR:

the blog will change but i won’t stop writing kpop it’s just not going to be kpop writing on here though, i will be changing my user & updating my links but that takes time so please bare w/ me while i do. about love is on permanent hiatus & updates are slow for everything else. I know this post is long and redundant, and you probably don’t care, but i felt it was better to explain & be honest about my writings. I’m grateful for those who follow me, keep up with my fics, and just support me. Thank you! Okay this was long & i need to do my closing tasks for the night! xxx

𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆 .. 𝐆𝐎 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐁𝐈𝐍 !

hi everyone! i go by SAWYER (any pronouns he/she/they) and after eyeing lgc for quite some months .. i've decided to take the leap and finally join ! i'm super excited to be here with this muse i've had in my head for a while now ! i see all your messages in my ims and i'll get back to you all as soon as i can. ♡ the quickest way to get to know this must is probably though his STATS PAGE, but i'll try to put a few quick facts under the read more and some connection ideas to help get things started. just a quick note; i'm still getting my bearings and am not yet sure what events are going on and what he can participate in, so a little guidance would be super appreciated ! i also just want to give everyone a heads up that this blog is stuck on the new post editor since it's a new blog, so cutting posts might be difficult with me for a while. i'm still figuring it out. so i appreciate your patience with me in the meantime !

𝐌𝐄𝐄𝐓 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐁𝐈𝐍 !

the son of a b-list actor and a first generation idol who had a very short-lived career, hanbin has been called every alternative name for a nepotism baby that there is. despite neither of his parents being especially successful in their respective careers, he's been the target of bullying and scrutiny of his peers for most of his life.

a bit of a tumultuous past, hanbin was born in korea, but spent most of his schooling years in los angeles, california where he went by the name benjamin "ben" go. he moved back to seoul near the beginning of high school and typically prefers to be called hanbin rather than his chosen english name.

he's a rather soft spoken sort of kid, a bit insecure due to the cruel nature of previous classmates and peers. he would very much like to be responsible for his own name and reputation, but somehow he still lingers in the shadow of his parents' names. a very hard worker in lessons and wants desperately to be liked by his peers.

signed to lgc ent. in january 2020, so just going on his third year with the company. he's probably a bit antsy to see what becomes of his career, if he'll find more success or follow down the same mediocre path as his family members. he's trying very hard to be patient, but i think he is struggling with doubts if he'll ever see the stage.

𝐏𝐋𝐎𝐓𝐒 & 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 !

while i don't imagine that his parents are especially popular —certainly not his mother— i do think it might be fun to have a muse who's familiar with their work, possibly inspired by them ?? a fan who thinks that they deserved better than where their careers have gone?

i'm a very big fan of negative relationships; if anyone has a muse who would resent him for being "born into" the entertainment industry, who would call him a nepotism baby to his face or otherwise act like he shouldn't be here without the connections his family has. perhaps it could turn into enemies to lovers ??

other trainees signed in january 2020 ?? better if your muse has already debuted; hanbin will undoubtedly compare his own career to your muse's and agonize over why he's not good enough yet. friendly rivalries can be fun as well — friends who push one another to improve in various ways. i believe hanbin has a competitive nature that could be awoken with the right motivation !

i love love and writing romantic interactions ! give me all sorts of different lovey plots ! unrequited crushes ( either on hanbin's side or your muse's side ), puppy love, exes, almosts, yearning and pining, whatever ! i'm not 100% certain of my muse's sexuality yet —and hanbin himself might not be 100% certain himself !— so i'm open to discussion and a little self discovery with my muse.

hanbin's sister is currently an npc with minimal development. if anyone is looking for a second or third muse, i would love to see her in the directory too someday ! that said, i think trusting people with a family connection is scarier than trusting people with a ship, so i'm looking for great co-writing chemistry ooc with anyone who's interested in picking up this connection someday !

other, less closely related family members i'm less picky about ! if anyone's muse's story fits a plot for cousins or other distant relatives, let's talk !

i'll add more ideas to this post as they come to me, but this is all i have for now. i'm looking forward to meeting everyone and getting this boy involved !

[compassionatereminders]

Hi sorry for the long ask. i think i might have depression or something. I just feel like im always looking at people through some kind of mask, idk. Like i dont fit in anywhere. And sure at work that might just be normal for me bc ive always been a bit different than everyone else but i also feel like i have to pretend to be someone im not even with my best friend. Im just very low on energy all the time. I used to like art i think? I dont even remember if i actually liked it or just pretend i like it. Right now i feel like ive just been saying i like art because it's always been like that but do i really still like it? I sometimes dont draw for months. I feel like im not good enough at work, im a graphic designer but im not creative at all and im being compared to my coworker by my boss and it sucks. I just started my job 2 months ago but i already want to quit but i dont know what else i want to do. The only thing im maybe a bit decent and interested in is design and art even though i dont know if i even like it or if i just pretended to like it for too long that i dont know the difference anymore. On top of this my dad is sick and its incurable and he's literally gonna die soon and he's too young to die.

I just feel like something is wrong with me, at this point im hoping something is wrong with me so it can be fixed. I dont want this to just be my personality. But i dont really want to seek professional help because i dont want my mom to worry. There's so much going on for her already, im the person she depends on the most right now and i dont want to make this more difficult. And of course i also feel like its not bad enough to really count as any mental illness or something. I mean it's not that bad, it might just the the winter season that's making me sadder than usual. And the entire situation im in. And also the fact that i just dont know what i want regarding my job. So its not that weird that im low on energy and i dont want to draw something for my friend that he asked for even though i have 4 days in the week i dont have to work. But i dont draw on those days, i only watch series all day. In the morning i lie down on the couch and in the evening i get up to go back to bed and that was my entire day yesterday and Wednesday. Just no motivation to do anything fun other than this.

You dont have to diagnose me or anything but any personal thoughts on this?

Btw i started following your blog because somewhere last year when i could feel myself just needing some encouragement and positivity. The posts really did cheer me up a little for a while.

While I won't try to diagnose you, it does sound like you are genuinely struggling - and even if this does not qualify as mental illness, that should not prevent you from seeking help and answers. Because the earlier you reach out for support, the better are your odds of avoiding a severe mental health episode. And it's better to worry your mom a bit to get better than to bottle all of this up until it reaches the point of no return. Because you're right that something is going on here. And even if you aren't mentally ill, losing a parent is by itself a major life crisis and a very good reason to seek out therapy and support

stay.

note: normally i try not to get too personal with authors notes, but #lolz feeling a little silly and goofy ig

i really debated posting this because all it is - is a huge vent/dump fic. i don't expect anyone to read this or for it to really go anywhere and that's fine with me. i'm actually a little embarrassed? i guess you could say? i don't know. a lot of issues are coming up revolving around my ed so i just had to get it out.

+ i do promise to try and work on requests and lighter stuff. i still cant afford a new computer so im doing everything from my phone. it'll take some time, i'm sorry about that. i'll try my best to get requests out as soon as i can.

warnings: talks about anorexia/eating disorders. if you decide to read this i strongly advise you to take a moment beforehand because i do go pretty in depth at some points. i dont want to trigger anyone or anything, so the warning is here.

**please note that this is heavy thought based at first before it moves onto dialogue.

**and remember this is just a vent/comfort fic i originally wrote for myself, so if it’s not as good as any of my other fics you guys like i’m sorry.

ALSO SORRY TO KILL THE HALLOWEEN SPIRIT HELP

ty moli for proofreading i love u <3

it was impossible to understand why such an awful thing could be glamorized

you were only ten when you first stumbled across the sites. sacred rules could be found plastered all over the home pages in cute fonts to distract from how twisted the demands were. lists of diets and calorie counting apps were always linked on the side, along with pages full of videos pertaining to weight loss. 

even at a young age, you knew it was obviously all wrong, that the people running these blogs had to be sick themselves. but that didn’t stop you from continuing your exploration of the community. once you started you couldn’t stop.

by the time you were twelve, you counted on laxatives and self-induced vomiting to ease your insecurities. it worked for a while, but then it wasn’t enough. you had to do more, be better than the person you were a few months prior. 

at thirteen, you joined group chats and ran your own little blog tied to those who could relate. the praise for losing weight easily became your biggest motivator. because if you were the smallest, you were the best. within a few years, you’d been perfectly trained into thinking that less was good, and that becoming more was the worst thing you could ever be. 

you were taught that losing hair and bruises on your skin were the things you wanted. if you didn’t have those, then you were hopeless, not enough. others in the community told you to look up to those cliche, horribly written characters with eating disorders. no matter how many stereotypes and stigmas they gave off, those characters would always be praised some way or another. you weren’t shocked to say that reading winter girls did you no favors at all.

the next few years were on and off between misery and glimpses of happiness. it was never ending. nonetheless, you ignored what every therapist told you and remained firm on the belief that your body was different from the rest. your body wouldn’t go too far like the others because you were strong. you’d come so far already, why would you stop now? 

you denied your diagnosis of anorexia because nothing was wrong. you weren’t in a hospital bed dying of heart failure. why were you supposed to believe what you were doing wasn’t right when nothing serious has gone wrong? that was your point, although you knew somewhere in your mind it wasn’t normal to cry over a turkey sandwich or panic at the thought of even smelling food. 

so you stayed true to your routine of hiding food, packing on layers of concealer, and lying straight through your teeth when asked if you’d stuck to your meal plan. 

it never lasted long though because despite your best efforts, your body would eventually give away the truth on its own. weigh-ins became impossible to trick, your extra small clothes hung two sizes too big over your body. anyone with eyes could see that you’d been less than truthful the entire time.

as you got older, you found that some years were better than others. your body could be healthy and you found yourself genuinely enjoying those around you. friends and family said you were more fun to be around. during those times they didn’t have to worry so much, they could laugh at lame jokes you’d tell without thinking it might be the last one they’d ever hear.

during those years, your eating disorder was much more quiet. you were able to eat food and not feel as guilty as you would when you were sick. the thoughts were always there; they were just more manageable than before.

but somewhere in your twenties, you found yourself still stuck in the cycle introduced to you at the tender age of ten. you were old enough now to know and believe what you were doing was wrong, but the fear of facing and fighting back against your eating disorder was too scary of a thought for you to handle. 

you knew now that when you were younger people brainwashed you into believing smaller was better. they took the lighter side of eating disorders and turned them into goals you’d want to reach.

the people you’d met on pro-anorexia websites romanticized the fuck out of the disease, leading you to believe you’d be beautiful and envied by others as long as you had a gap between your thighs and size zero pants around your waist. you thought someone would’ve wanted you as long as you were frail and dainty (two words commonly misused to describe someone who was actually weak and dying). 

it was a mystery to you at sixteen why you were so miserable when you were promised happiness and self-confidence. girls didn’t envy you like you’d been told they would. instead they’d stare at you, weirded out by how freakishly skinny you were. your name was constantly in people’s mouths at school, everyone wondering why you’d ever want to look like that. 

friendships didn’t last long either. you wore people out with your constant need to skip out last minute on plans that had been scheduled for over a week. things didn’t make your case any better when you’d snap at your friends for wanting to get something to eat because they were hungry. a few small, petty arguments too many, and they’d be on their way as far from you as they could go. 

you’d never felt more alone in your life when even your longest friends started to grow tired of your behavior. 

why couldn’t they think about how tired you were of it? you are with yourself 24/7 after all.

those in charge of the sites forgot to mention all the extremes you’d learn to go to when it came to avoiding or getting rid of food. it was more than just sneaking dinner into your dog's mouth. for you, it was hiding sacks of vomit in your closet, throwing them in a large plastic bag the night before trash day. for you it was throwing up in your friend's front yard while they ran inside for a few minutes to get something. for you it was hitting yourself in the stomach for over an hour hoping to replace hunger pain with physical pain against your body. 

no one ever mentioned the insane beliefs that tagged along with anorexia. like the ones you had where you thought fast food water had calories in it because it was surrounded by the smell of food, or thinking that shampoo and advil had hidden calories in them that would somehow leak into your body. 

you knew how stupid and irrational everything sounded, but those beliefs were so ingrained in your mind it was hard to challenge them. 

another unmentioned concern no one cared to bring up was the fact that you’d eventually have to tell people new in your life what you’d struggled with. you told natasha awhile before you started dating her and she didn’t run off or stray away from you. you were grateful for that, but it didn’t make things very much easier for you.

if things were bad, then date nights rarely ever consisted of going out for food. this hardly ever bothered natasha too much, but you could see the occasional falter in her eyes when you told her you’d rather do something else. she’d love to take you out hold your hand as you walked to the ice cream shop after you’d eaten dinner. she’d love to enjoy a glass of wine or two at a nice restaurant with a four course meal, but you couldn’t always give her that.

there had been a few dates ruined by your eating disorder. the worst of which came just a few short months after you’d told her about your issue. 

the fair was in town and natasha was over the moon about the idea of taking you with her. you weren’t in the best mindset that particular day though. the thought of being around fried, greasy food was enough to make your stomach churn, but you saw how happy she was and didn’t want to ruin her the surprise she had for you. 

half way through the night you had a panic attack, cutting the date short. words couldn’t even begin to describe how guilty you felt. natasha drove you back to hers, silence filling the air after you apologized profusely. she spent the night watching over you, making sure you didn’t do anything because she knew how angry you were with yourself. 

dates like those came few and far between, especially through the years you weren’t struggling as badly. 

you couldn’t say the same for now though.

you tapped your feet against the tile flooring as you sat in the lobby of your doctor's office. natasha sat next to you, hand clasped tightly over yours. she was worried. beyond worried, really. 

like many times before in the previous years, you’d managed to hide your relapse quite well from others. the only reason natasha knew now was because you’d passed out on the job. you’d woken up in the hospital to her setting a glass of water on the table next to your bed. 

you argued about it for three days before finally agreeing to go to the doctor. 

truth be told, natasha was probably more worried about it than you were. the only thing occupying your mind was the fear of having to gain weight again, but also the chance that you might lose natasha if you didn’t get it together this time. 

you weren’t a kid anymore. you knew very well she had the right to leave if she wanted to. you also knew the bind you were putting her in. if she left, natasha would run the risk of worsening your situation and in a month's time she might not ever see you again. but if she stayed, then she’d only be screwing herself over by destroying her own mental health. 

neither one of those options were ones you liked. 

“y/n?”

you looked up to see a nurse standing in the doorway of the lobby. natasha gripped your hand as you stood up and you nodded for her as an okay to follow you. stepping on the scale was the worst part, especially since the nurse had no idea of your current situation and decided to allow you to look at the number in front of you. natasha was about to say something, but you’d already seen what the scale said, anyway. 

she did, however, grimace at the sight of how skinny your arm was when you took off your jacket for a blood pressure check. just like the rest of your body it was too thin. 

“temperature and weight are low-”

you are slowly dying, was the translation.

“-but your blood pressure is just above where it should be.” she left the room after jotting down the reason for your visit, telling you that your doctor would be in shortly. 

you spent the next fifteen minutes waiting in an uncomfortable silence, watching as natasha fiddled with the ring on her index finger. 

“it’ll be okay, nat.” 

 “we’ll see what the doctor says.”

“i’m sorry.” she sighed, running her fingers through her hair. “i know you are.”

 her reply didn’t help the matter, only making you feel more guilty by the second. guilt you didn’t have room to feel when you were the one doing this to yourself.

a light knock on the door made noise and your doctor walked in, a smile on her face like the previous times you’d been in her office.

“hello dr. hill.”

“y/n,” she greeted. 

the doctor flicked through your files on her computer before she addressed you herself.

“want to tell me in your own words what happened?”

you shrugged, “hit another relapse. passed out at work. argued with my girlfriend over whether or not i should be here.” 

she hummed, taking your hands in her own, examining how blue your fingernails had turned. “a lot less pink from the last time i saw you.” 

her stethoscope met your spine, and you inhaled, exhaling as she moved it around the back of your body.

“lungs sound fine.” you waited patiently until she finished listening to your chest. “your heartbeat isn’t where i’d like it to be, but seeing as you’re a little over twenty pounds underweight, it’s exactly where i’d expect it to be.” 

dr. hill paused, jotting down a few notes on her clipboard. “i strongly recommend hospitalization.” deal breaker. you shook your head instantly, instantly regretting making the appointment. 

natasha swallowed back a sob full of anger and frustration. “why not?”

“i just can’t, alright? it’s not even that bad.” you mumbled.

dr. hill stepped out into the hallway, giving you and natasha space to talk.

“did you not hear her? jesus christ it’s like talking to a brick wall with you.” she paced around the room, emotions too high for her to think properly before speaking.

“well then leave, natasha. i don’t care anymore.”

“i don’t want to! that’s the last thing i ever want to do to you. but god, why can’t you just fucking eat?”

she couldn’t stop the words from slipping from her mouth. her heart broke when she saw the look on your face.

“and why can’t you understand it’s not always about that?” you whispered to the ground.

“i know. i’m sorry, i didn’t mean to say that. but please, we can do this together. i’ll there every step of the way, you just have to want it for yourself.” she pleaded, eyes watery with tear tracks tracing the edge of her jaw.

“i just want to go home. can we just go home, please?”

. . .

the smell of natasha’s dinner aired throughout the kitchen. you watched as she filled her plate with a variety of things. it looked good — good enough to eat — you couldn’t lie about that.

natasha hadn’t spoken a word to you since the appointment earlier in the day, too upset to even think about it.

you were conflicted about everything.

literally everything.

but seeing natasha sitting alone, face propped up resting against her arm, flipped something inside of you.

you could almost hear her voice telling you to try, just try, that’s all she wanted from you. the both of you knew you’d end up dead if you didn’t. and you didn’t really want that, no matter how many times you wished it would happen.

so you went to grab your own plate, filling as much as you thought you were comfortable with and sat next to nat. this was the first time you’d done this in months.

you inhaled, but made no move to take a bite.

your thoughts had never been this loud before. it was bickering back and forth, nonstop.

you wont be good anymore if you eat that.

– yes i will.

you’re disgusting.

– i’m just hungry.

it’ll go away.

– i just want to eat. it’s just food. nothing more.

you know you can’t do that. you’re bad, horrible, the worst person in the world. so be good.

“damnit!” you slammed your fork down, startling natasha.

breathe.

“you’ve got this.” natasha’s soft voice came from beside you and her hand clasped into yours. “how’s this? i can talk about something, anything you’d like to take your mind off of this.”

you cleared your throat with a small nod, “it’s almost halloween.”

“it is. do you want to do anything this year?”

“can we dress up and give away candy to the kids? and can we stay up and watch horror movies?” natasha giggled, “we sure can.”

she noticed how your fork began to circle around the food, pushing and shoving it around.

“can you take another bite?”

no.

don’t.

the metal hit your tongue, food leaving the fork and into your mouth.

“do you have any ideas as to what you would like to dress up as?”

“mmm. well i think we should definitely go as edward and bella from twilight.” you replied sarcastically.

“i love you, but there’s no way in hell you’ll get me to dress up as a sparkly vampire.”

her thumb rubbed the top of your knuckles. “another bite please. you’re almost there.”

your lip trembled and you could feel the lump in your throat start to form. you felt so stupid and humiliated that natasha had to do this for you.

with a shaky breath, you exhaled, pushing yourself once more.

“i think we should go as gay ken and barbie.” your lip twitched into a smile. “and who would you be?”

“well ken of course,” she confirmed.

“what it i wanted to be ken?”

“and what if i wanted to just wear a cat's ear headband with a black turtleneck and pants and call it a costume?”

“if you want to, we can.” the redhead smiled, shaking her head. “we can be anything your little heart desires. now, one last bite?”

and one last bite it was.

you liked that natasha didn’t clap and cheer when you finished your plate. too many times you’d been told “i’m so, so proud of you!” or “i can’t believe you actually finished!”, it was annoying. those types of things always made you feel like a child who couldn’t do anything to begin with.

instead, natasha went with a gentle “i knew you could do it” and went to put the dish in the sink. it felt nice to have someone really believe in you.

“c’mon, we can get ahead on our horror movie watching a little early.”

natasha went to grab your hand, leading you into the livingroom and onto the couch. you tensed when her arm wrapped around your body.

gross. disgusting. she shouldn’t touch you.

“hey, where’d you go just now?”

“hm? nowhere. i’m here.” she knew you were lying, but decided not to push.

natasha’s hand moved from your side up to your head, scrunching her fingers together to scrape her nails against your scalp.

not good. tainted. dirty. wrong.

“what movie would you like to watch?” she clicked the remote and scrolled through a series of horror movies.

ruined.

“bride of chucky?” when she didn’t receive a reply she pressed play anyway, knowing it was one of your favorites.

natasha tried her best to keep you as distracted as possible. she went from letting you play with her hair and rings to asking questions about the movie, despite already knowing the answers.

“we should go as chucky and tiffany. don’t you think? i’ve already got the red hair.”

why would you do that?

“yeah, that’d be fun.” your voice cracked, causing natasha’s previous hand movements to come to a halt.

“is there anything i can do to help you right now?”

“i just don’t want to be here right now.” natasha’s eyes widened, and you quickly went to clarify what you meant. “no- no- not like that! not like that at all. i just… i don’t know, i feel stupid.”

“why?”

“we have a bathroom. i just ate.” not a second later and natasha put the pieces together.

“oh.”

you nodded, “it’s stu-”

“it’s not stupid. it’s triggering.”

natasha moved to get off the couch, disappearing out of your sight. you didn’t have the energy to try and see what she was doing, so you stayed put.

“let’s go for a drive. i know a spot you might like. it’s quiet, away from the city. we can just talk or listen to music. we could also just sit in silence if you want, i don’t mind. whatever it takes until you feel ready to come back.”

you didn’t bother trying to tell her that she didn’t have to do this because she wouldn’t listen anyway. natasha’s stubbornness was honestly one of the few things that’s saved you.

“nirvana? stevie nicks? what are you in the mood for?” natasha asked you softly, thumb tapping her screen as she scrolled through her spotify playlists.

“will you play kurt’s version of the man who sold the world, please?”

“of course. and you know you’re always welcome to change the song. i put it on shuffle though.”

the ride there was more relaxing than you thought it would be. your mind and body were too focused on the lyrics of the song and fiddling with natasha’s free hand. the thoughts were still there, just not as loud as before.

soon enough, you and natasha both laid flat against the back of her car staring up at the moon. it was still. no noise could be heard apart from the sound of crickets a few feet away.

you had room to think, room to breathe.

you thought about what some of your friends were doing right now. you’d seen pictures on instagram of them representing their college, a couple of party posts, and the occasional travel selfie.

those were all the things you wanted to do, but couldn’t. it was easy to let yourself feel jealous. sure, you were more than grateful to have natasha, but there’s nothing fun about being in a relationship with someone so self-destructive. there was no doubt natasha loved you, but it’s hard to love someone who doesn’t want to be loved; or at least acts like they don’t.

so the choice was once again up to you. what was more important? spending days wasting away over something you’ll never reach? or living a new life, one that could be exciting, outside of your eating disorder?

“what’s on your mind?” natasha questioned, turning her head to the side to get a better view of your face. your cheeks were more hallow than she remembered and it made her stomach turn.

you hummed, “i was so caught up in my own pain i didn’t realize how much i was hurting everyone else around me. this race to be perfect; look where it got me.”

natasha didn’t know what the right thing to say was. your statement wasn’t necessarily wrong, so she couldn’t argue against it.

“i used to tell myself that my eating disorder never took anything from me. everyone always had something, whether it be a sport, or theater, or dance. i didn’t have that. and then i realized that’s exactly what my eating disorder took away from me. i haven’t done anything in the past decade except go through the motion. every day up until now i’ve lived to obey my eating disorder.”

there was pause, another inhale and another exhale.

“you could say i have someone; my family or friends, but after awhile they get tired. they stop trying and asking. they stop caring. a few years down the road and now i have a strained relationship with everyone i used to be close with. i guess it made it easier to accept what would inevitably happen to me.”

you turned to face her, a shaky breath leaving your mouth. “i don’t want to die, nat.”

the redhead had to bite the inside of her cheek to keep from crying. she couldn’t imagine a life without you, she didn’t want to imagine it.

“had i known when i was a kid that this would be my life i would’ve never continued on like this.”

“you still have time, you can still get better.” she reasoned.

“i know, it’s just hard.”

“you’re in the fight for your life, it won’t ever be easy.” natasha affirmed. “but i know you can do this.”

“we’ll see.”

. . .

*gasp* an eating disorder fic that doesn’t revolve around the fear of getting fat? v tired of that stereotype pleek not everyone with an ed is like that.

okokok so im not sure if you get this alot, but how do you get into f1??

i already love niki lauda, and rush, but i dont really know where to go from there? is there any specific youtube channels, blogs, websites ect that you could recommend? i dont really know where to start haha

Hi Anon!! Welcome to the F1 club. I'll just give you my kind of personal journey to learning F1, but this list isn't for everyone. Just what I did. Hopefully a few points can help!

If anyone would like to add suggestions to this list, feel free. Drop a comment if you want anon to follow you, @ f1 and classic f1 people!

To begin, here's the official F1 site where you can view basic info, the season calendar, driver standings, and updates about the sport.

list under the cut

Watch DTS. Everyone may hate me for this, but I got my hype for F1 by watching Drive to Survive. If you haven't seen that series on Netflix, I would highly recommend it. It gives an exciting, modern intro to the sport if you haven't had exposure to F1 before. Just remember to take the portrayal of drama/driver relationships with a grain of salt, because Netflix adds a lot of their own drama inaccuracies to it.

Watch F1 YouTube "tutorial" videos. I watched a ton of YouTube when I was just learning about F1. Search up basic things, like... very basic. Literally: What is F1? Why are there different tires? What is downforce? You only really get into a sport when you are able to understand it, and I promise you, F1 youtube will provide you with more than enough knowledge about the sport. I recommend the official Formula 1 channel, and maybe WTF1 for some funny stuff that can still teach you things.

Interact on social media. The F1 fanbase is huuuuge, and they're very active on social media. Probably more than any other sport's fanbase I've ever been a part of. Fans love talking about their teams, their favorite drivers, etc. You'll catch onto the drama very soon, and meet some very... opiniated people along the way. You can also follow the constructors' and drivers' personal accounts to get a feel of their motivations/personalities. You'll soon get to know everyone and then can develop a motivation for watching your favorite drivers.

Get in touch with F1's history. F1 has a very rich history with some great personalities and very talented drivers. If you're already into Niki and Rush, that's great! Some other big names you'll hear a lot are ones like Senna and Schumacher. Watch their documentaries. Watch other old drivers' documentaries. YouTube is once again a great resource for finding old F1 videos. Simply search up "Top 10 F1" and you'll have a long list of recommended videos that show iconic battles and drama between some of the legends of the sport.

Gradually start to watch the races or highlights of the races on Sundays, even if you don't understand what's going on most of the time. To me, modern F1 seems extremely boring if you don't know what's going on. There's nothing that really draws you in. But as you learn more and more about the sport, you can gain an appreciation for it.

Anyways, I hope this list is helpful! Best of luck getting introduced to the sport, and welcome to the group!

People I’d like to know better

1. Alias / Name: fae! i’ve gone by fae ever since my early forum rp days in the early 2000s and have been lucky enough not to come across too many others with the same alias ( usually spelled differently! ), so i’ve kept it. really can’t imagine going by anything else tbh. in fact, i’d probably respond to it outside of the internet if you called me it lmao. 2. Birthday: june 11 3. Zodiac Sign: gemini 4. Height: 5′2″ 5. Hobbies: RP and that’s honestly it lately. I used to do a lot more personal writing projects, fanfic writing, book writing etc, but I haven’t done that in a long time and it kind of depresses me. The writing rut has been long and tiresome and I want my motivation back!!! 6. Favourite colour: baby pink. my room is done in baby pinks and cream colours. it’s very girly but in a classy, audrey heburn sort of way and i love it. 7. Favourite book: Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones. it’s one of those rare finds where the movie is just as good as the book ( although vastly different! ). it’s honestly like taking in two completely different stories lmao. 8. Last played song: Devil I Know - Allie X. i was in the middle of listening to the mix i made for shelby. 9. Last film / show: j.ulie and the ph.antoms! ​ 10. Recent reads: i... actually haven’t read anything in months. i attempted to start shadow and bone a while ago but i haven’t finished it.  11. Inspiration: Shakespearean tragedies, poetry, art. old hollywood films and actresses. i have an edit somewhere i made of exactly the things that inspired corinne as a character, but i am too lazy to dig it up skldjfsdgg. 12. Story behind URL: i will have been writing corinne for ten years come february, so i’ve gone through a handful of urls as i’ve moved blogs and let corinne evolve as a character. but one thing that has always been constant is this idea of a wilting rose. the idea of it symbolising both a thing of hope and beauty, but also sadness and tragedy. i’ve had this url for a couple of years now though and i don’t foresee myself changing it any time soon.  13. Fun fact about me: so. i am really big into genealogy. i helped my grandma research and write up our family history dating back to scotland in the early 1700s ( there’s so much. it literally spans two fat volumes ). and one of the gems i found out about while doing research was that i am, in fact, related to j.ensen a.ckles. distantly, at least. we’re like third cousins because his great great great(??? it’s been a while, i can’t remember the exact number im sorry ) grandfather and my great great great grandfather were brothers. but i’ve always thought it was neat and my grandma was thrilled when i told her because she used to watch spn religiously.

Nahyuta does NOT fall easily. 

It takes him forever to even open up to other people, much less be so emotionally open to have a relationship with someone. 

He also just doesn’t really feel like he has the time to entertain a relationship. He’s very busy with being a prosecutor and rebuilding Khura’in. He really doesn’t have the time to date or fall in love.

But things do happen, and Nahyuta has definitely learned that things often don’t go as expected for him. 

He met you purely by chance. 

He was walking through one of the many gardens in the kingdom when he bumped into you also walking around the garden. The gardens were rather peaceful and people often wandered around there for stress relief. 

At first, he paid no attention to you. 

You were simply another person seeking peace and quiet and he had no reason to disturb that. 

But then he started to see you nearly every single time he went to the gardens. 

Nahyuta would start saying hello to you, maybe sharing light chit chat here and there. But there was really nothing more than that. 

You two were merely strangers to each other who happened to walk in the same garden when you needed a break from life. Nothing more. 

At least that’s what Nahyuta told himself. 

It all changed one day, however, when you saw him staring at a particular flower that just so happened to be one of your favorites. A sudden strike of confidence hit you as you walked up to the prosecutor and struck up a conversation with him. 

“Ah, are you admiring those flowers? I love those, they’re my favorite!” 

“Hm? Oh, yes. They are rather pleasing to the eye.”

And that’s what started it. Soon enough, those two sentences kick started a bond between the two of you. 

Now, rather than him just going to the gardens to get a break from his work, he was finding himself wandering into the garden whenever he wanted to speak with you. 

He began loving seeing you, loving the interactions he had with you, and loving... you. 

It doesn’t take long for him to realize that he has fallen for you. He’s always been rather in tune with his emotions, even those that he rarely experiences. 

And he’s very confident in how he feels. He knows his emotions and he knows how he feels. 

He knows he likes you. 

You make him happy, you understood him, you listened to him. He more than just likes seeing you in a day.

He loves it. 

Nahyuta doesn’t beat around the bush when it comes to telling you how he feels. 

Like I said, he’s confident with how he feels. So he doesn’t feel any need to be anything other than blunt when confessing. 

Very straight forward when confessing. 

Gives you a nice arrangement of flowers when asking you out.

That of course contain your favorite flower from that one day that you decided to strike up a conversion with him.

✍️ Hassan, Jul-Jasmin E.

To be honest, this semester was a very challenging path that i will take on, especially we are in the midst of pandemic so we have to adjust and keep moving forward. Learning with this kind of situation must be very hard for us specially when we are only new to our subjects or courses. At first i find it so hard to cope up with my fellow classmates and teachers because for me, University of Makati has a high expectation to the students it gives me anxiety because i was so afraid to be left behind from my classmates, knowing that they were just in the same school in highschool while me on the other hand was different from them. It makes me feel like im alone and nobody wants me in my class.

But later on i manage to keep up with them i make friends and it gives me motivation to have a confidence when performing in class. I realize that they we’re adjusting too i just have to be brave and let my confidence go higher and make friends to them.

And of course i was very thankful that i have teachers whose very nice and very approachable. I highly appreciated them because they are also giving their best just to make us learn from them and one of it was Teacher Kat. Teacher kat is a very amazing teacher at all time i have learned a lot about his teaching especially in reading and writing because all i wanted is to enhance my reading and writing skills and also to learn the ways or the proper use of this.

The lesson that i enjoy the most was the Book and Article Critique and Resume and Cover letter. First is Book and Article Critique i enjoy this because i am that person whose addicted to books i usually read books and it’s happy to know how the author write it or how was it being made. It is important to critique a book because It allows one to build a criticism of a work: an awareness of the subject area of the work or related works. An understanding of the intent of the work, intended audience, claim creation, evidence structure or artistic style. A knowledge of the work's strengths and limitations. Whenever i do a book review it gives me the feeling of potential reader because a book review is a guide for potential readers because a book review or article review is a critical analysis of the material that describes, summarizes, and critiques the ideas presented. The purpose of a book or article review assignment is to broaden your knowledge base and understanding of a topic.

This lesson taught me about the essence of a book review and how to conduct pr create a book review. I also learned that in a book review you will learn not just the book itself but alao the author and the thinking or perspective of the author in the story. It gives me the idea of having book review is privelege for the author as wl as to reader. As the book is evaluate, the author may see errors he or she doesn’t know. It is time for him/her to continue improving their skill or if none appreciating their hardwork after finoshinh a good plot story. It also help other readers like me on having ideas of the book before reading it.

Next is Resume and Cover letter i enjoy learning this kind of topic or lesson because it gives me idea on how to make this in the future especially when i am going to apply for a job and they needed my personal information so by learning in this lesson it gives me idea on how to create a resume that will be needed for the company that i will applying on for the future. I learned that a resume is a written document created by a job applicant to outline his or her qualifications for a position. A resume is typically followed by a personalized cover letter in which the candidate shows an interest in a particular position or business and draws attention to the details of the resume that are most important. I learned that resume is not just you wanted to create it has a format and that format should be followed so that it would be easy to them to analyze it. It's more than just a document: it details your history, your talents, and your education so that a prospective employer can see how your individual experiences can contribute to the success of an organization quickly and easily. And also the cover letter when i was writing my cover letter i was so excited it feels like i am actually applying to cebu pacific airlines and i have this feeling of so much excitement in my heart because it was my dream, my dream job i wanted to be a pilot someday and having knowledge about this will help me in future because i will be able to apply this to me.

And yes, we become a better readers and writers by doing a lot of reading and writing but it is more essential if we study the proper ways to use it the proper ways in reading a text, article, books and etc. We should always know the proper ways how to write an article and book and we should not forget that by learning reading and writing it can help us in the future or maybe someday we can be a better person as well as better writer and reader. It was so amazing to learn all the topic here in reading and writing with the help of Teacher kat and her teaching skills i able to understand the topic and the lessons we had. Patience and interest in learning this would be helpful for us and make us a better writer and reader. In this course there are things that will help me enhance my ability in reading and writing it gives me more knowledge about it that i can use especially i’m a fan of reading and writing.

I am happy and grateful to learn this course because Teacher kat delivers it well and she is more approachable than the other subject teacher like even though she is busy she still manage to reply whenever we need her guidelines or when there are thing that we’re confused of. She was also a jolly person. She always teach us with a smile on her face showing that she was really dedicated on teaching us some lessons. I was very happy to be taught by you teacher kat i hope to meet you soon and to thank you in person. You’re beautiful inside and out maam! Continue inspiring students and giving so much knowledge to them.

I am ending this blog of mine with my favorite quote. Since then it was my favorite quote whenever there are things that i have to do or it was hard to do i always thought the idea of “strive for progress not perfection” because When you focus too much on perfection, you start worrying at every step. Your focus shifts to the possible criticism and failure. You become the roadblock of your own progress; but you strive for progress you start to succeed faster. And “Perfectionism is not the quest for the best. It is the pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us that nothing we do, will ever be good enough that we should try harder.” -Julia Cameron and of course a picture of me smiling because i am deeply happy to become part of your class Teacher kat and i am so happy to learn anything from you! Kudos to your sacrifices and efforts on teaching us Teacher Kat! Hope to meet you soon stay pretty!

*. Stray Kids Reaction to You Asking for Tickles! .*

anon: “hi! you don’t have to do this if you don’t want to, i totally understand if it’s too weird, but i was wondering if i could request a stray kids reaction to you asking to be tickled because you like it? if you don’t want to do this, feel free to just delete it, i really do understand. thank you ☺️.”

hello anon! i assume you’re in the tickle community of tumblr as i’ve heard of it before. although i’m not apart of that community and will literally punch you if you try to tickle me (i’m very sensitive lol), i happily did my research and wrote this for you! your community is very sweet and wholesome, and i don’t see anything wrong with tickle obsessions (unless it’s NSFW, then i’m not writing that). i hope you enjoy this and thank you for requesting!!

also! i did this in bullet point form, i hope that’s okay with you ^^

*. c h a n .*

squishy baby

you were having a bad day and just really needed some tickles

so you asked your emotional support boy boyfriend, chan

who happens to be THE sweetest person you’ve ever met??

but you were still worried he’d think you’re weird (stoopid reader)

“ᶜᴴᴬᴺ?”

“yes baby?

“ᶜᴬᴺ ᴵ ᴴᴬᵛᴱ ˢᴼᴹᴱ ᵀᴵᶜᴷᴸᴱˢ?”

“tickles?”

“ᵞᴱˢ”

although it’s an unexpected request from you, he’ll comply because your his bby

starting off small with his tickles, they’ll get bigger and grander the more he sees you laugh and squirm

by the end of the tickle session, both of you have wide grins on your faces

expect more tickles from now on you happy reader!! 

*. m i n h o .*

okay expect a complete 180 reaction from chan 

he’s just really confused okAY

the r00d minho comes out i’m ngl

when you ask, he’ll just jab your stomach a couple of times before turning around in bed, not really paying attention to your pouty and now disappointed face

minho you messed up big time >:((

so in return, you poke in on the back a couple of times

“what?”

“m o r e” :((

he turns around in curiosity and sees your sad face and then puNCHES himself in the stomach because he realized how harsh he was :<

so to apologize he scoops you into his arms and tickles the heck out of you

smooching the top of your head to say sorry

all in all,

he won’t really get it at first

but as soon as he saw your smiley face, he’ll love it

*. c h a n g b i n .*

another r00d boy tbh

but in a slightly different way actually

basically: he prefers cuddles over tickles

weird reason, right?

but he’s stubborn so he tries to coax you to ask for cuddles instead

but you’re aLSO stubborn so it’s just two tiny people brawling over which is better

“tickles won’t comfort you though!!”

“they do for me ;<”

ack, you got him reader 

freaking pathos sorry what my english class is writing argumentative essays my bad

so you end up winning no surprise

so congratulations!! you get endless tickles until he’s tired of it

enjoy them, he’ll expect cuddles from you later >:)

*. h y u n j i n .*

honestly, another boy who prefers cuddles a tad bit more

but hey, affection!!!

he just loves affection *cue him smothering every single member with hugs*

you aren’t even afraid to ask

you just sorta,, latched onto him

“can you tickle me?”

so he

gently sets you down on the bed

he’s being so careful with you as if you’re made of glass

but no!! you want lots of tickles

so as soon as you said that he’s going love blaster style

pumping out the most loving and affectionate tickles you’ve ever received in your life

please keep him in your life

*. j i s u n g .*

get ready for tHIS one

because guess what

he secretly likes tickles too

you didn’t hear that from me though *winks and does finger guns*

but it sUCKS because both of you happen to be squeamish so it’s just two people desperately wanting tickles yet if one of you acts upon it the other is going to fall onto the floor in response

this won’t stop you though

you’re gETTING those tickles even if you die in the process

so you ask

and he gets a bit of courage too

“ᶜᴬᴺ ᴵ ᴳᴱᵀ ᵀᴵᶜᴷᴸᴱˢ ᵀᴼᴼ ᵀᴴᴱᴺ?”

poor baby, ofc you comply 

you guys go at the same time which just,, HORRIBLE IDEA

both of you are about to pass out ten seconds in

but it’s still worth it

one day you two will conquer your sensitivity and tickle the giggles out of each other

ooooo tickle the giggles!! im slowly getting more and more high im so sorry anon

*. f e l i x .*

expectations: very soft, gentle, loving

reality: you’ve awakened the beast

i’ll explain wlkejrkwlajrkl

you ask him one day out of the ordinary while he looks on the phone

v shyly as well so you didn’t expect much

but nOOOOO

he’s prepared for this moment

placing his phone down totally not playing fortnite

so he

get ready this isn’t going to be like hyunjin’s

THROWS you onto the bed wrestler style

tickling the shit out of you like a madman making you erupt with laughter

because guess what?

you challenged him to a competition

“who can make y/n laugh the most”

felix vs.. nobody

but don’t tell him that, he loves tickling you and you love his violent tickles so it works out

*. s e u n g m i n .*

he’S JUST GONNA MAKE FUN OF YOU AT FIRST IM SO SORRY YOU DON’T DESERVE THIS

but you deserve him i mean what

you’re going to have to explain your thing for tickles as he needs a bit of explanation

after you do, seungmin jokingly goes “like this?” and spreads his fingers over your stomach, triggering a loud giggle from you 

tHAT caught him off guard

he goes :0 

but soon goes ;D

he’s happy he can make you happy

so he tickles you more and more just to get more giggles out of you

he’s thoroughly enjoying this because usually he’ll tickle the members to make them s u f f e r

but with you he can go all out and make you smile and-

he just loves you okAY 

he’ll never say it out loud but,, he loves you okay reader

ohmygod is my “seungmin is my ideal type” showing?? my bad

*. j e o n g i n .*

✍️ Hassan, Jul-Jasmin E.

To be honest, this semester was a very challenging path that i will take on, especially we are in the midst of pandemic so we have to adjust and keep moving forward. Learning with this kind of situation must be very hard for us specially when we are only new to our subjects or courses. At first i find it so hard to cope up with my fellow classmates and teachers because for me, University of Makati has a high expectation to the students it gives me anxiety because i was so afraid to be left behind from my classmates, knowing that they were just in the same school in highschool while me on the other hand was different from them. It makes me feel like im alone and nobody wants me in my class.

But later on i manage to keep up with them i make friends and it gives me motivation to have a confidence when performing in class. I realize that they we’re adjusting too i just have to be brave and let my confidence go higher and make friends to them.

And of course i was very thankful that i have teachers whose very nice and very approachable. I highly appreciated them because they are also giving their best just to make us learn from them and one of it was Teacher Kat. Teacher kat is a very amazing teacher at all time i have learned a lot about his teaching especially in reading and writing because all i wanted is to enhance my reading and writing skills and also to learn the ways or the proper use of this.

The lesson that i enjoy the most was the Book and Article Critique and Resume and Cover letter. First is Book and Article Critique i enjoy this because i am that person whose addicted to books i usually read books and it’s happy to know how the author write it or how was it being made. It is important to critique a book because It allows one to build a criticism of a work: an awareness of the subject area of the work or related works. An understanding of the intent of the work, intended audience, claim creation, evidence structure or artistic style. A knowledge of the work's strengths and limitations. Whenever i do a book review it gives me the feeling of potential reader because a book review is a guide for potential readers because a book review or article review is a critical analysis of the material that describes, summarizes, and critiques the ideas presented. The purpose of a book or article review assignment is to broaden your knowledge base and understanding of a topic.

This lesson taught me about the essence of a book review and how to conduct pr create a book review. I also learned that in a book review you will learn not just the book itself but alao the author and the thinking or perspective of the author in the story. It gives me the idea of having book review is privelege for the author as wl as to reader. As the book is evaluate, the author may see errors he or she doesn’t know. It is time for him/her to continue improving their skill or if none appreciating their hardwork after finoshinh a good plot story. It also help other readers like me on having ideas of the book before reading it.

Next is Resume and Cover letter i enjoy learning this kind of topic or lesson because it gives me idea on how to make this in the future especially when i am going to apply for a job and they needed my personal information so by learning in this lesson it gives me idea on how to create a resume that will be needed for the company that i will applying on for the future. I learned that a resume is a written document created by a job applicant to outline his or her qualifications for a position. A resume is typically followed by a personalized cover letter in which the candidate shows an interest in a particular position or business and draws attention to the details of the resume that are most important. I learned that resume is not just you wanted to create it has a format and that format should be followed so that it would be easy to them to analyze it. It's more than just a document: it details your history, your talents, and your education so that a prospective employer can see how your individual experiences can contribute to the success of an organization quickly and easily. And also the cover letter when i was writing my cover letter i was so excited it feels like i am actually applying to cebu pacific airlines and i have this feeling of so much excitement in my heart because it was my dream, my dream job i wanted to be a pilot someday and having knowledge about this will help me in future because i will be able to apply this to me.

And yes, we become a better readers and writers by doing a lot of reading and writing but it is more essential if we study the proper ways to use it the proper ways in reading a text, article, books and etc. We should always know the proper ways how to write an article and book and we should not forget that by learning reading and writing it can help us in the future or maybe someday we can be a better person as well as better writer and reader. It was so amazing to learn all the topic here in reading and writing with the help of Teacher kat and her teaching skills i able to understand the topic and the lessons we had. Patience and interest in learning this would be helpful for us and make us a better writer and reader. In this course there are things that will help me enhance my ability in reading and writing it gives me more knowledge about it that i can use especially i’m a fan of reading and writing.

I am happy and grateful to learn this course because Teacher kat delivers it well and she is more approachable than the other subject teacher like even though she is busy she still manage to reply whenever we need her guidelines or when there are thing that we’re confused of. She was also a jolly person. She always teach us with a smile on her face showing that she was really dedicated on teaching us some lessons. I was very happy to be taught by you teacher kat i hope to meet you soon and to thank you in person. You’re beautiful inside and out maam! Continue inspiring students and giving so much knowledge to them.

I am ending this blog of mine with my favorite quote. Since then it was my favorite quote whenever there are things that i have to do or it was hard to do i always thought the idea of “strive for progress not perfection” because When you focus too much on perfection, you start worrying at every step. Your focus shifts to the possible criticism and failure. You become the roadblock of your own progress; but you strive for progress you start to succeed faster. And “Perfectionism is not the quest for the best. It is the pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us that nothing we do, will ever be good enough that we should try harder.” -Julia Cameron and of course a picture of me smiling because i am deeply happy to become part of your class Teacher kat and i am so happy to learn anything from you! Kudos to your sacrifices and efforts on teaching us Teacher Kat! Hope to meet you soon stay pretty!

THE MEGA RP PLOTTING SHEET / MEME.

First and foremost, recall that no one is perfect, we all have witnessed some plotting once which did not went too well, be it because of us or our partner. So here have this, which may help for future plotting. It’s a lot! Yes, but perhaps give your partners some insight? Anyway BOLD what fully applies, italicize if only somewhat.

Mun Name: slug / ellie     Age: 19       Contact: IM, discord

Character(s) I rp: Yunaeisha Adynora, other demons from my lore Which muse(s) inspires you the most atm?(for MM): Yunaeisha Current Fandom(s): None really  Fandom(s) you have an AU for:  Naruto, PKMN, Magi, Gangsta, OPM, MHA, Hazbin Hotel & currently working on an ATLA verse My language(s): german, polish, italian, english   Themes I’m interested in for rp:   Fantasy / Science fiction / Horror / Western / Romance / Thriller / Mystery / Dystopia / Adventure / Modern / Erotic / Crime / Mythology / Classic / History / Renaissance / Medieval / Ancient / War / Family / Politics / Religion / School / Adulthood / Childhood / Apocalyptic / Gods / Sport / Music / Science / Fights / Angst / Smut / Drama / etc. Themes/Genres you have an AU for: highschool, modern & fantasy/medieval

Preferred Thread length: one-liner / 1 para / 2 para / 3+ / novella. Asks can be send by: Mutuals / Non-Mutuals / Personals / Anons. Can Asks be continued?:   YES / NO   only by Mutuals?:  YES / NO. Preferred thread type: crack / casual nothing too deep / serious / deep as heck. Is realism / research important for you in certain themes?:   YES / NO. Are you atm open for new plots?:  YES / NO / DEPENDS. Do you handle your draft / ask - count well?:  YES / NO / SOMEWHAT. How long do you usually take to reply?:  24h / 1 week / 2 weeks / 3+ / months / years. I’m okay with interacting: original characters / a relative of my character (an oc) / duplicates / my fandom / crossovers / multi-muses / self-inserts / people with no AU verse for my fandom / canon-divergent portrayals / au-versions (as main or only verse). Do you post more ic or occ?:  IC / OOC. Are you selective with following others?:  YES / NO / DEPENDS.  

Best ways to approach you for rp/plotting: the best way is just to straight up approach me. most often than not, just liking a post is not enough because it’s too vague ?? like if i post an idea & you like that, i’ll still be hesitant when it comes to roleplaying or approaching you because, while i appreciate such gestures, i’m just too anxious. therefore, plopping into my IMs without a properly fleshed out idea is also fine ! it, at least, gives me the hint that you’re actively seeking interaction. however, just saying “i want to roleplay & plot !” won’t cut it; at least, have something in mind, please !

What expectations do you hold towards your plotting partner:  basic ideas & pouring their heart into plotting! i don’t mind waiting, at all, so if you’re busy, don’t worry about keeping me waiting; i completely understand since i’m also often busy with work or university. but !! please don’t only come to me with the statement: “i want to plot!” it’s not gonna cut it & it’s not gonna help with a proper interaction, at all. if i approach someone, most often than not, i have SOME sort of idea in mind. but yeah, being passionate is the most important thing!

When you notice the plotting is rather one-sided, what do you do?:  most often than not, the conversation will die down because i will loose motivation; i don’t like it because i’ll feel like a bother & i shouldn’t feel that way when it comes to a hobby! therefore, one-sided plotting is one of my deal breakers; i usually end the conversation & there will be little to no interaction happening. like i said; i don’t mind waiting, i just hate that feeling of coming on TOO strong when my plotting partner delivers no input. 

How do you usually plot with others, do you give input or leave most work towards your partner?:  often than not, i start off with rather simple question like; are you interested in a certain verse ? do you already have something in mind ? if not, i will go through their about page & ask them things about their character & how that could possibly bring our characters to interact. sometimes, the about pages of a muse cannot give you every single bit of information; muses grow & change with each thread, therefore, it’s often better to just ask the people about their characters ! & from then on, it often just comes naturally. 

When a partner drops the thread, do you wish to know?:   YES / NO / DEPENDS. - And why?: if the thread is not THAT important or vital for our character’s relationship; i don’t mind & won’t need to know if the thread is dropped. sometimes, if it’s a heavily plotted thread & i’ve anticipated the interaction a lot; i’d appreciate a quick heads-up from my partner that they’re not feeling that certain thread any longer; i don’t mind that !! - What should your partner do when dropping a thread?: they don’t need to tell me; SOMETIMES, it’s just a nice gesture but most of the time, i don’t care, we can always start another thread !!

What could possibly lead you to drop a thread?:  many things can lead to me dropping a thread; just losing motivation, having no muse for a certain genre or simply having the feeling that my partner is not liking it, any longer (ex. extreme lack of trying to match the reply length ). my health & my schedule can also, sadly, affect my motivation, so, more often than not, i tend to drop shorter threads & keep longer ones.  - Will you tell your partner?:   YES / NO / DEPENDS.

Is communication in the rpc important to you?   YES / NO. - And why?:  i get anxious really fast if people stop replying for a very long time, out of the blue. it has happened to me once before with a good friend with whom i have no contact with any longer due to miscommunication & them not trying to communicate the issue with me; therefore, yes, it is very important. i wanna know if something is bothering you; i wanna know if you like something very much; i wanna know what’s up ! we’re humans & we’re adults; we can talk about this.  - Are you okay with absolute honesty, even if it may means hearing something negative about you and/or portrayal?:  yes ! as long as it is constructive criticism & not straight-up bashing my characters or lore; i’m all for it. i don’t mind hearing negative things; in fact, i appreciate the honesty & it gives me room to work on myself & my writing ! - Do you think you can handle such situation in a mature way?  YES / NO.

Why do you rp again, is there a goal?:  building relationships that LAST & exploring my muses through & through; it is amazing how much yuna has grown through interactions with others; how different she has become from the yuna i once started out with; it’s almost been a year now & it’s just amazing. however, i’m not stopping anytime soon; THERE IS SO MUCH MORE I WANT TO EXPLORE !! the ultimate goal is for me to just look at my blog & be completely proud of what i have accomplished & written; i want fleshed out relationships & threads; deep stuff !!

Wishlist, be it plots or scenarios:  yuna talking with someone about her struggles; mentally & physically. being open about her abusive father & how it has traumatized her & painted men in the worst picture one could imagine. HOWEVER; a hard thing because i don’t want these things to be pre-est or something; i want a thread where there is struggling, screams, conflict ! it is rather hard to find someone, though, who is willing & fitting to go onto that long journey with me & yuna. also, i’d love to write about darker stuff; i love fluff, though, sometimes i sure want a bit of that, too. 

Themes I won’t ever rp / explore:  the only things i won’t rp or explore are stated in my rules; ex. pedophilia, rape & really descriptive animal abuse. killing, torture, gore as well as cheating, heartbreak or toxic relationships are okay, while i do prefer to have a deeper bond with someone while exploring the latter & be communicating the whole time; i think these are really REAL topics & that’s why i wouldn’t mind exploring them because it does happen, more than one would like them to happen. however, if i see you, the mun, glorifying or romanticizing these; just no. 

What Type of Starters do you prefer / dislike, can’t work with?: i like everything with some sort of substance; i love short ones as much as long ones, nevertheless, you have to give me something to work with. yuna would ignore anyone not of any interest or value to her; therefore, if your muse just asks her random questions, the interaction will go nowhere. if you’re unsure; just ask !!

What type of characters catch your interest the most?: i love characters with uniqueness to them; it can be a certain interest, certain appearance or their species can be totally unique to them; i’ll love it ! i do have a thing for villains, though; always had, even when i was young 8^) so, dark, stubborn & “evil” characters catch my interest far more than a really nice muse who just is all smiles all day. i love a muse that can kick mine & yuna’s ass, basically. someone with strong morals or who is just really set on their beliefs can also offer conflict which i ADORE !! i need it; i live for it !!

What type of characters catch your interest the least?:  really kind & unbothered muses who are self-sacrificing, perfect & loved by everyone for no reason ?? idk, i just think it’s bad writing. everyone has flaws; no one is perfect ! 

What are your strong aspects as rp partner?:  i am a very open person who will talk with you about anything & is keen on exploring our character’s relationship at all times & through all means; i often send my rp partners prompts in form of my yuna just being her dumb-self or through memes ! i will constantly think about our characters & will try to have them interact as much as possible. i am, most of the time, very active & respond to the threads fairly quickly ! if i am totally invested; you’ll get everything you want; a moodboard, an edit, a drawing, etc. i literally pour my heart & soul into every bond my muse has; i live for them. oh !! i also love asking people question about their characters; i just love learning new things about them !! 

What are your weak aspects as rp partner?: i’m very slow out of character; i don’t approach muns a lot because i’m scared to be a bother, working on it ! i often ramble a lot & my writing can become a bit convoluted & hard to understand, i apologize ! i tend to not message people on discord as often as i’d like to; mostly because i’m really socially awkward or just don’t think that what i want to show to them is THAT important. i’m not as straight-forward as i wish myself to be; however, even with all that; i still have a lot of fun & am acknowledging & actively working on my weak aspects ! 

Do you rp smut?:  YES / NO. Do you prefer to go into detail?:  YES / NO / DEPENDS. Are you okay with black curtain?:  YES / NO. - When do you rp smut? More out of fun or character development?:  often, it is because i want to develop the relationship or yuna’s character; she’s a very sexual being who hardly connects to someone emotionally; therefore, writing sex & exploring the vulnerability behind it can be really beautiful ! though, fun is also involved !  - Anything you would not want to rp there?:  non-consensual stuff is a no-go ! also, certain kinks that make me uncomfortable are also off the table; ex. anything involving bodily fluids other than spit. 

Are ships important to you?:   YES / NO. Would you say your blog is ship-focused?:   YES / NO. Do you use read more?:  YES / NO / SOMETIMES. Are you: Multi-Ship / Single-Ship / Dual-Ship  —  Multiverse / Singleverse. - What do you love to explore the most in your ships?:  i love the conflicts the most; clashing ideals or just two stubborn muses arguing for the heck of it is really fun & can develop the relationship beautifully ! yuna is a person who likes someone that can be properly fought with, verbally here. but of course, i also adore the very soft moments!! i love meaningless fluff; it warms my heart.  - What is your smut tag?: SINFUL.

Are you okay with pre-established relationships?: YES / NO. - And what kind of ones?: nothing TOO drastic; a friendship, a rivalry is a-okay ! however, i’m very hesitant when it comes to having pre-est. romantic relationships; though, you can quickly change my mind if you pour your soul into the plotting; then i’m fine with it ! everything that needs time when writing also needs time when plotting; don’t just straight up jump into something if you’re not able to give it your all.

► SECTION ABOUT YOUR MUSE.

- What could possibly make your Muse interesting towards others, why should they rp with this particular character of yours now, what possible plots do they offer?:  i think yuna is a person with whom it is easy to form relationships with; it takes a bit of time but due to her rather drastic ideals & opinions; anything can be founded within seconds. she doesn’t hold back when it comes to her honesty & conflicts will arise. also, for all muses with demonic or deity backgrounds; being a daughter of the literal queen of hell, though, also harboring fragments of a god’s soul makes her unique in the supernatural world which can spark interest with your character or even they can develop an ill-will towards her ? i think it’s really interesting exploring what makes one work & go on & yuna has the philosophical potential to tickle that out of your muse; she question EVERYTHING. now for certain plots; one-sided love or even friendships are always really interesting, especially when she is the one having such feelings. other than that; she has enormous & dangerous powers; so if you’re into character or world-building; can offer that as well !

- With what type of Muses do you usually struggle to rp with?:  humans; she doesn’t approach humans who are just kind & have nothing to offer for her, the least she’d do is have sex with them or kill them to harvest their life energy. i’m sorry but she really does hate all of humanity & to change that opinion ? man, you must be the most stubborn person ever.  - With what type of Muses do they usually work well with?:  characters who are of supernatural or demonic nature; she’ll be very interested & even nosy to a point. also, very attractive characters who are not afraid to speak their mind; she’s really superficial most of the time & will flirt with anything that she deems good-looking. muses who have ideals that contrast hers or that are similar to her but also, generally, people who are open-minded. 

- What interests your Muse(s) in general:  sex, parties, plants & flowers, astronomy, writing, demons & hell, the underground scene, killing, knives & playing the piano - What do they desire, is their goal?:  the questions that bother her the most are; why did her mother had to die ? why would nobody help her while she was being abused by her father ? why was she kept alive by her sisters ? is there love out there for someone like her ? what do these strange visions mean that occur almost every night ? she has a lot of things she wants to experience & wishes to have a normal life once she has killed her other mother, lilith, which is her ultimate goal, at the moment.  - What catches their interest first when meeting someone new?:  their appearance; the scent of their blood & if it differs from humans; how they react towards her & what they do in front of her.  - What do they value in a person?:    strong opinions, loyalty, good looks, humor, strength (not limited to physical strength) - What themes do they like talking about?:  herself or the world & the state of it; she likes being philosophical with some, can often be somewhat self-centered; THOUGH; it is almost always for her to see how they would react to that. 

- Which themes bore them?:  love & drama; she does not care a lot for gossip or anything relating to it; the topic of love, no matter in which sense, is always brushed off because she just doesn’t find any appeal in it. 

- Did they ever went through something traumatic?:  Being the reason her own mother committed suicide; Her father & sister abusing her all her life, spouting lies & beating her until she could stand no more while her other sisters would watch & do nothing, even though, they were supposed to support each other; laewa, one of her sisters, fancying the idea of killing yuna for the greater good; two of her best friends turning on her when they find out she’s not human & then being killed right in front of her eyes; her one & only boyfriend protecting her from a demon hunter & being killed in the process - What could possibly trigger them?:  loud sudden noises; making fun of her attachment to her late ex-boyfriend, being awfully nice to her, the sight of any dog or wolf, tender touches (esp. her back being touched), being alone with her thoughts for far too long  - What could set them off, enrage them?:  people who make fun of her & her powers; calling her a monster; not understanding her pain when she opens up; purposefully touching her back or any other scarred skin, being nosy  - What could lead to an instant kill?:  you are a demon hunter that does not show remorse when killing demons with a consciousness, trying to kill her, killing one of her comrades 

- Is there someone /-thing they hate?:  Keela Adynora, Myra Adynora (Father, Sister), the other D.O.L.s, EYES’ superiors (the organization she works for), Humans, Lilith - Is there someone /-thing they love?:  Evelin Adynora (Her biological mother)

Is your Muse easy to approach?: YES / NO. - Best ways to approach them?: If you’re not quite human or are a demon, you could literally stand next to her & be silent; she’ll become curious on her own. other than that; be interesting or flirt with her; just do something that does not involve small talk; she hates that.  - Where are they usually to find?:  strip club (her workplace), bars, clubs, clearings within a forest, nice areas that are full of trees & plants; a roof-top

Something you may still want to point out about your muse?:  Yuna is basically pandora’s box personified; she may seem nice & attractive from the outside but within her are sleeping demons that only wait to be awakened. & withal, she is still a cutie who will become your number one supporter & protector if you manage to build a proper relationship with. it’s hard to get through that shell & what awaits is NOT that pretty but with years upon years of abuse, neglect & shit being thrown her way; it’s not easy being a carefree immortal.

Not sure if you can help me but it won't hurt to ask! Im set to be going on a school trip to Rome and the Greek Isles next year and bc of this I was starting to learn some Greek, but if the virus continues as it is my trip might be cancelled. Bc of this Ive been extremely reluctant and unmotivated to study any Greek at all and Ive honestly been doing anything I can to avoid studying lol. Any tips or advice to pump myself back up? Should I just stop learning Greek and switch to italian instead?

I also feel I should mention that even if I stop learning Greek now, I'll still be taking classes over it come next school year... I'm just conflicted since my dumb brain already poured so much into the little Greek I know and now I have literally no desire to do anything to further my knowledge lol

_____________________________________________________________

Helloo! There are some different points I would like to address:

If your trip is happening in Summer, chances are you will be allowed to come. Greece will probably open up for tourists the next Summer as it will this Summer. Of course, it depends where you are from. Some countries with high percentage of cases are excluded from the tourist list.

If you don’t manage to come or if you are not sure if you will come, do whatever you like. I know it sounds too generic but I mean it in a way of “do whatever pleases you“. If you learned Greek mostly because you were worried about the communication in Greece and suddenly you won’t need it and Italian seems more appealing, it seems to me that you will enjoy studying Italian the most. I am commenting on this because from your ask I got the impression you have some guilt leaving Greek behind and you deviate towards Italian. I am sure that if you don’t continue Greek you will still be able to communicate with basic expressions with the Greeks in case you end up visiting.

On the other hand, you still seem to like Greek and not studying just because you will need it (since you will take another class of Greek). In that case you probably want to learn the language but it’s more a matter of motivation. Studying a language gets more difficult the more you study it. In the beginning it seems easy but then you learn more complicated things. It’s natural for many to give up to that stage or contemplate if they really want to continue giving their time to this language - especially if this language is not needed in their life. The stage you are in is totally natural and I - and I am sure, many more people - have been there! So we go to the motivation part:

I would suggest you approach the language as a part of the general culture. Motivation may come if you immerse yourself in different aspects of the culture, the songs, the vlogs, the comedy, the sayings etc. If you have enough exposure soon you may want to understand lyrics and words or get the jokes and that may lead you to learning more of the language. So it may help in the beginning if you start searching about places in Greece, about the new and ancient religion, watching dances - just as part of a relaxing experience, no pressure. Try finding rediculous Greek sayings! Try finding beautiful or stupid words! Try finding memes! Try finding the most beautiful traditional Greek dresses! Stuff like that! Many people learn thoroughly about a culture and then they get interested in the language. This may work for you as well! Songs may be helpful since they use simple words and sometimes English translation is availiable on the internet and you can learn new words. 

Having this blog means that I am here to help people learn about the Greek culture. The language is part of it, of course! I get very happy when helping people discover my language! So, if you hear or read some words and don’t know what they mean you can send me an ask or a DM! If you want suggestions or to ask about anything else, in order to get immersed, you can - again - contact me. Some tags of my blog that may help you: #greek music  #greek language #learn greek (it has some videos with Greek tales and greek subs)  #greek tradition #video  #trashy #greek literature  #paradosiaki foresia (for traditional clothing)

Good luck! Don’t hesitate to send another ask or a dm if you want to discuss this further!

[tbh-entp]

hey, youre cool. i followed you on my old blog years ago and i quickly followed you again as soon as i started this new blog hahaha. anyways, im an aspiring writer. to try and understand my characters a bit better, i like trying out personality tests as them. soo, how do you think a relationship between a female entp and a male isfp would be?

Hey! Thanks! And welcome back! (I totally accidentally deleted my original blog and re-made it, so we’re very possibly on the same path here.)

Love the inspiring writer vibe-- me too, actually. It’s where I want to end up. 

So, I see these two as people who align sometimes, but overall, in the end.... not really. And this can be good or bad depending on what stage in their lives they meet. 

They’re both quite curious, adventurous, independent, and imaginative. 

The ISFP may come to the ENTP’s door and suggest that they go and watch the marathon in front of their apartment. And when the ISFP spontaneously decides to jump into the run without registering, the ENTP would probably join and love it/hope he doesn’t get called out, but will embrace it fully. 

They’re both focused on the now

They’re also both pretty competitive in a non-planning yet goal-oriented way. (same idea, but in practice)

The goal of the moment can be all-encompassing

But neither may have their whole lives figured out. (Or even tomorrow figured out)

The ENTP doesn’t know what he really wants out of things other than the win because his brain is always focused on the new and not on what he really thinks

The ISFP doesn’t know what she wants because she’s busy taking in the people and experiences around her. She knows what she likes and dislikes... but not what she’ll like and dislike tomorrow. 

After a short period of time, the ENTP probably won’t understand ISFP

ISFPs are easily stressed which is a real tick for ENTPs

Despite the genuine similarities in these two, like they’re both rebels with rules, they way they’ll react to the constraints is entirely different. 

The ISFP will feel a bit claustrophobic by the rules and will express it more emotionally

The ENTP will probably get a bit tense and sharp, and then will just actively do what he wants to do. 

I don’t know from the ISFP side because I am an ENTP, but ENTPs will be... very annoyed at stress because we just don’t get it. Like... we logically get the source, but we don’t understand why one reacts in that way. 

A more mature ENTP will know to just leave it alone and essentially ignore it so as to not be annoyed... but this depends on the maturity of your ENTP

Honestly, I think that the ENTP’s comfort with just doing whatever he wants may stress the ISFP out more in some cases

ISFPs are passionate, ENTPs... arent

ISFPs will run, heart forward, in the direction of something that interests them, and they can stay there for a bit. 

ENTPs will run, head forward towards interests, figure it out or become satisfied enough... and then go somewhere else. 

if these two are on a journey together, they would only meet up sometimes. The ISFP would have a path that they’re following, and the ENTP would meet up when it suits the ENTP. Also, I feel like this would be for the best because I see these two getting sick of each other. 

ISFP may find the ENTP to be rude and uncommitted (which is nuts because ISFPs can be uncommitted as well)

ENTP would find the ISFP to be emotional and not always very rational (which also ironic because ISFPs are just tuned into different cues)

If they’re in love though (which could happen)

 the ENTP’s motivation wouldn’t be the goal... it would be ISFP’s happiness. We’re a very loyal type. 

Likewise, ISFPs are very passionate and while committing may be hard for them, ENTPs are exciting and dynamic--

this is the type of couple that (if mature enough) may flirt with other people in front of the significant other but they both know that it’s not the same as being in love, and they’re fine with it. 

They would also know that they’d need to give the other space. 

They would definitely still annoy each other, but there’s a lot of space for growth with these two, and if it works out it would be a very interesting and probably healthy balance

Leonardo

Going to bed:

„Good evening, my love. I hope that you had a wonderful day and that you had a lot of fun. I just wanted to remind you to go to bed early tonight, so that you can have a proper sleep. If something‘s up, you can call me anytime you want, right? I love you and I wish you a good night. Love, Leonardo“

Waking up:

„Good morning, honey! I dreamt about you tonight and woke up with a feeling that today will be a great day for you. So please, don‘t waste any opportunities and get up on time so you won‘t be late, alright? I hope, that you had a great night and that you‘ll have a perfect day. I‘ll text you again soon, I promise! Love, Leonardo.“

Raphael

Going to bed:

„Hey babe. Just wanted to check on ya, ’cause ya said ya need help with goin‘ to bed early. So...here I am. Uh...I‘m not good with words and ya know that. Hope ya had a nice day? Mine was okay, I guess. Would‘ve been better, if I had spent it with ya. But I‘ll see ya soon, I promise! Well, I hope that ya will have a good night. Call me, if anything’s off, okay? Love ya. Raph“

Waking up:

„Morning princess. I know, it‘s early...but ya have to get up and get ready. Today won‘t be as hard as ya think it‘ll be, Y/N. I promise ya that one. Also, I‘m not a morning person myself, but the fact that you’re out there awake makes me get up in no time! I know, I know...that one‘s cheesy as hell...promise me, ya won‘t tease me about it? Anyway, I wish ya a nice day wherever ya have to go. Love ya. Raph“

Donatello

Going to bed:

„Hi there, sweetheart. How was your day? I wish you could‘ve visited me today. I have a new invention just waiting for you to be tried out! But take your time, alright? It‘s already late and you should go to bed now. Having enough sleep is very important for your health and I want you to be as healthy as possible! If you can‘t sleep, you could always try to meditate or listen to some soft music. Or...you could call me, of course! I hope, that your night will be refreshing and calm. Good night, I love you, dear. Kisses, Donatello“

Waking up:

„Good morning, dove! Tell me, how was your night? Did you sleep well? Did you have any dreams? I know, you probably don‘t want to get up, but you‘ll have so much fun today! Also please make sure to eat a proper breakfast and drink enough throughout the day. I don‘t want you to pass out, because of dehydration or lack of energy. Tonight you‘ll have to tell me everything you did today, alright? I have to go now, training is starting in five minutes and I can‘t be late. I love you very much. Your loving Donatello“

Michelangelo

Going to bed:

„’Sup, Y/N? You good? Alright, I just finished my new game and looked at the time and decided to text my favorite person im the whole world! Yeah, yeah, that‘s you! Hehe...well...it‘s definitely time to go to bed, even if there‘s so much we could do together right now! But...no...Donnie always says we need enough sleep to survive. Funny, ‘cause he‘s always the one with the least amount of sleep. Looool. Anyway, we both have to go to sleep now, so don‘t let the bedbugs bite! Good night, sleep tight! XOXO Mikey“

Waking up:

„Good morning, sunshine! I hope, you slept well! I had suuuuch a crazy dream this night. I‘ll definitely have to tell you about it later. But you have to get up, right? You‘re so lucky to be able to go wherever you want, whenever you want...I wish I could do that. So please, go and visit as many different places as you can today, please! You have to tell me about everything later. For now, I wish you a wonderful and sunny day, angelcakes! Love you more than you could imagine! XOXO Mikey“
