Winter Studying Challenge

December 11: What is a favorite family Christmas/holiday memory that has stuck with you throughout the years? Why?

Time to over share: The first time that I ever got drunk would probably be one of my favorite holiday memories because I was playing dominos with my family and still managed to win when I barely could see the dots on the card. We had just eaten and we were laughing and having a good time, there’s a movie playing in the background and tiny plates with the left over appetizers.

December 12: Does your family have any odd traditions during the holidays?

We don’t really have any odd traditions, the oddest tradition we have apparently is roasting a pig instead of eating a turkey or ham during Christmas.

Side Note: Guess who figured out how to make words in bold today

Day 29: What are three things that you are proud of? 

The thing I’m most proud of are my academic accomplishments. I have always been study oriented and have obtained incredible results like being let in one of the best public universities in my country. I consider myself so proud in my accomplishments it’s more arrogance than anything else if I’m honest; but hey I spent my life doing something why not be proud!

Seeing that I’m getting my life back together: I came back home being obese and yesterday I hit the milestone of being at a normal BMI. Second I was able to keep up with at least two challenges this month and my grades are starting to look up. I’m starting a challenge for myself which is to keep a bullet journal updated for November. As Kronk would say: “Oh yea it’s all coming together.”

My new ability to try, make and keep new and old friends. I am used to alienating myself to favor either my schoolwork or I preferred being alone but I want to be around people; Life alone is quite melancholy which my therapist drilled into me and I want people to be a part of my life so baby steps would be to join a group chat. In college take a swig of coffee with some friends I got from class and talk about everything. For my old friends that I barely talk to, I know I have to work to earn their friendship back and the best part is the fact I’m trying everyday.

I now recognize that it has passed two weeks since the start! Working harder I know it will guarantee fruit at the end. Speaking of work, today I've been writing the outlines for the essays I need to write for English about "The greatest adventures of Sherlock Holmes". At this rate, I'll finish by Wednesday! (The structures... not the essays) See you until then!

23/100 days of productivity

Today was spent studying for the exams I have tomorrow for Physics and Calculus along with writing the structure for my essay due in English. Planning out the weekend to be as productive as possible due to being absent to one of my classes and being stocked on a ton of homework. On the Brightside, I’ m getting accustomed to working back in school again so the work isn't really drowning me like it was two days ago!

I’ll most likely be posting my bullet journal pages (what I have been working out for the weekend prep.) on Sunday if all goes well!

Positive vibes ~
