Just because you have to study to achieve your dreams doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable
College has been a whole process for me. I did not know how to study, i did not know how to put effort into the right things, and most importantly, i did not know how to accept that my actions (or lack of) were the problem.
It took me years, but I've learned to accept that it's ok for me to need to study to be good when it comes to a subject, that college is a place for learning, not for being instantly good at something.
And now i can finally say that, without the subconscious frustration, i truly do enjoy learning new things, studying new subjects, and studying for the sake of knowing more, not just to pass exams.
It takes work, but it's all worth it.
journaling while waiting for inside out 2 to start ~ I am having a pretty good golden weekend ✨ I attended PGH orientation for postgrad interns, did laundry and cleaned. did vid call with my mom. my heart is happy.
No matter how busy you may think you are, you must find time for reading, or surrender yourself to self-chosen ignorance.

The further i got into the course, the more tired of it i got
So the frequency with which i drew these lil guys drastically increased
Enjoy :)

Motivation is a tricky thing
It took me 4 weeks since college started to get back in the studying mood. I tried to stay on top of my work and, to be honest, i failed miserably. Recently i got the urge to study, i missed the feeling.
So, here I am, back again, wasting my time on Tumblr, because it makes me (in some weird way) more productive

Remember what life is all about
I was so concerned with my final year of college, finals, entry exams, that it felt like i was going through life head bowed, just walking on autopilot and staring only at the ground
I need to remember to enjoy life more often
The exams will be there, the time will pass anyway
So i choose to spend my free time remembering that there's life outside of university and the oh-so-important future
Smell the flowers, sit in the sun, go for a walk in the rain, watch children play, dance in your room, feed some ducks or squirrels (do some research about what is ok to feed them beforehand though)
Remember what life is really about
I chose to waste time in a way I like, and everything aesthetic fills my soul
