I am currently very afraid of being stupid and dumb. It’s the worst thing one can be. I’m afraid I’ll dumb down even more I can’t imagine living a life where I’m stupid and dumb and I continue to get more stupid and dumb. It’s my nightmare I need to exercise my brain
Ordered a linear algebra text book. Came today. Very pleased. Flipped through it and frowned. What is this! I plan to read through it a bit before classes start this fall because I’m taking diff eq and linear algebra and I am quite unfamiliar with linear algebra
Going through periods of health scares when I notice something about my body and think I’m dying but eventually it turns out to be nothing/normal but nonetheless doesn’t feel less scary each time
Perhaps I’ll learn to play the piano in the future
Assumptions on me

Activity: negligible

Violent thoughts everyday
Wistful ache from morning to noon and sheer violence from noon onward
There is no desire without fear.
Need to be healthy need to take care of my body Need to tend to this vessel need to maintain it need to eat healthy no junk food I need to exercise
