Oml NO- Not The Draft, Just The Research Proposal Form 😭

Day 19/20, 9th October, 2023 – Monday

Ah!!! I wrote my Biology test and I think it went really well!! I'm done with my UT2 exams now haha. I have a term test in my tuition class, but I'm too tired to study for it right now.

Day 4/14, 3rd September, 2023 – Sunday

Ok, so I don't have a picture for today either, but I worked again!!! I worked on my Chem Lab Report a little bit, since the due date looms closer. Along with this, I did some physics, motion in a plane, from a book of mine. Got emotional over getting a problem wrong, but alas, that's the learning process (for me, at least).

Did you guys know that the most recent version of sharks have fins that are kinda leg like and they like to walk up onto land?

Day 1/20, 21st September, 2023 – Thursday

So! We're not off to the best start, since I didn't study today. However! I did finally go back to my tuition class. And!!!! I finally understood stuff in physics! Well, most of it anyway. And in both my school class and tuition!!!! (I get the distinct feeling there's way too many exclamation points in this post, but oh well). Tomorrow will be better, I promise. Also, hey, I'm sticking to my rule of posting before bed :D

Day 10/20, 30th September, 2023 – Saturday

Hello! So today wasn't the best, but I did do work, so it counts for something, right? I think it does. Either way. I did projectile motion, since that's what will be coming on my physics test on Tuesday. On a non-academic note, my family and I have come to a meditation retreat/resort for the weekend. So far it's really nice!! It's a huge property and they have this really big and nice garden that we walked through. And I love riding on the golf carts, those are so fun.

AMAZING I'M SO PROUD OF YOU HOLY SHIT, CONGRATULATIONS-

it just hit me that for YEARS my whole (and only) major goal was to have a book published before i turned 25. that was all baby-alex in 2018 was gunning for when we started taking writing seriously.

in the time since, my publishing journey has been HARD. i mean, it has sucked some major balls. i'm talking 'getting surprise divorced the week you're supposed to start your contracted structural edits' hard.

like, 'nobody tells you anything and if other people miss deadlines, it's your problem now and you're BEING a problem just by asking why' hard. like, 'oh, you mean you're struggling with the weight of writing/editing 6 hours a day and working enough to support yourself while dealing with a chronic illness? have you tried giving up SLEEPING?' (i wish i was joking that's a verbatim quote) hard.

but now, at the end of all that bullshit, my book comes out on february 6th.

i turn 25 on march 4th.

i did it.

"Black holes ain't as black as they are painted. They are not the eternal prisons they were once thought. Things can get out of a black hole both on the outside and possibly to another universe. So if you feel are are in a black hole don't give up – there's a way out."

Day 8/14, 7th September, 2023 – Thursday

I finished my chemistry lab report and submitted it!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, an hour after the 11:59PM deadline, which is something I need to work on, but still!!!!!!! I did it!!!! I also began the chapter thermodynamics in my chemistry tuition class, so that was fun too :D

It’s Lesbian visibility week !!!
