Insomnia and Other Stuff
Posted at 11:55 AM
It's been another long while since I've posted. But here I am, on my new laptop. It's an HP Spectre 360xsomething. What I really like about this in comparison to my old Macbook Pro is that it's light weight (2 lbs), I can fold the keyboard back and use it as just a tablet, and it comes with a pen. Also, I've always been a big PC/Windows type girl. I've always resented getting a Macbook in the first place and wouldn't contemplate getting the Macbook Air to suit my college and life needs anyhow. I got something against Apple (mentally) overall but can respect that they have great products but they're not for me.
My insomnia has been improving the last 2 days. I still wake up in the middle of the night and it takes a long time for me to fall asleep. I've been tired and losing weight so that's an issue, I feel like it's a result of my disorderly anxious mind. But I'm working on it.
This summer consists of me solving a shitton of Sudoku puzzles and studying Mandarin (how to write, read, pronounce) as I'm waiting for jobs I've applied to to get back to me and offer me a position because I'm in need of doing something productive. Sudoku and studying another language takes up not even a fraction of my day and I feel like a potato just laying here online not progressing , much anywhere. Ah, I've also been working out, but it's on and off.

I feel so pathetic. I believe I would be able to make friends if I even put my foot down and try. This sucks but I did become friends with somebody and I got their number and all. It's refreshing. But can I say we're really friends unless we hang out a couple times and talk?
2nd semester started quite some time ago and here I am stressing about meeting people, getting a job, getting my permit, working out, family, friends, etc. Juggling all these things that will help me stay sane while I'm in school because school's important to me even though it pains me to do work at all.Labels: College, Life, Other

Major Change
Posted at 9:47 PM
It has been a long while since my last blog post. I want to continue updating this for the sake of... I don't know.
As you know, I have been in college for over a month now and the work and stress is catching up to me but I have been managing just fine. Also, I've got myself a tablet ( Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0). It has been the most satisfying purchase I've made in a while and it really has taken the place of using my laptop. It has been a real big help with school work as well.
I need to be more social and I need to talk to my dad more. But honestly, I can be such a coward and that's why I never get the things I want that are extremelying important.
Hopefully that will change. It has to!Labels: College, Life, School, Stress

Why So Serious?
Posted at 8:51 PM
I remember the first time typing up a blog and reading the posts of my friends'. It felt so fresh, so personal, so intimate. That was about 4 years ago, when I was in Freshmen year, and here I am now, the summer before college starts. I'm nervous, I'm excited, I'm looking forward to new experiences and new friends and new everything. This is not to say I'm disregarding the old. I acknowledge every aspect of my life whether it be great or not so great. I'm glad I'm here and at the same time, not so glad because that's what nostalgia does. It makes the past seem like a magical time in your life and you long for it, but it will never come to you.

Life Choices
Posted at 10:18 AM
To make things very clear, I just want to live a life where I can give back to the community but also enjoy what I do for the rest of my life. Putting a lot of thought into that, I have already decided I want to write for the rest of my life but I also want to have leisure time and contribute to society through volunteer work, non-profits, so and so.
I've been looking to John Green for advice. I watched him talk about college, adulthood, and decisions through your college career. And yes, they are videos I've watched years ago from time to time, but I stumble onto it again. And no, I won't be doing one thing with my life.
People say life is short. On the grand scheme of things, that is true. In comparison to the length of the universe's existence, we are merely a split second of breath. This only disregards our own perception of time and how truly long it is.
I'm trying to incorporate more people into my life. Sure, I'll have many friends, but a few close friends. I want to be able to socialize with people of similar interests and motivated and determined individuals.
Also, I'm still trying to change myself into a better person. For weeks, I've been noting down my flaws and fears : (complaining too much, negative thinking patterns, fear of public speaking, etc, etc) and ways I can get myself out of my bubble everyday. And holy shit, it worked. Just needed to put my mind to in and keep constant discipline. So far, I've improved on my public speaking skills, I'm a more content and happy individual because I push away my negative cycle of thoughts, and life has improved greatly after I stopped complaining as much as I usually did. My motto now is to live in the moment, don't complain unless you are actively pursuing a solution so you can shut up afterwards, and to be open to embarrassing yourself so you can improve. Never forget to be compassionate and considerate to others and take care of yourself.

An Open Letter
Posted at 9:32 AM
I legit haven't written on this for 2 months, close to 3. But hey, here I am.
I haven't been on here for the past couple months because my anxiety has been worst than usual. Not just 1-2 week periods, but almost 3 months now. That's why I was gone. And you'd think the small things I do to get myself back in the right mentality will help me— it doesn't. Here and there, I'm alright, I'm happy, I'm content, I feel like myself. And the next thing you know, overwhelming fear, anxiety, over thinking, unable to get ahold of my thoughts. I've talked about it to my counselor. She's not that much of help but I guess I'll just need to help myself.
I take steps to get better. Always, forever will… what am I writing?
I am quite obsessed with Nirvana as of now. I love Kurt Cobain because he's immortal, he's timeless. I feel as if all walks of life will have heard of him. I'm jealous that my older family members were alive while he was around until he committed suicide at the age of 27 in 1994. I'll pay tribute to him since his birthday is coming up on February 20th. I'll light candles, write something and read it to myself like the obsessed junkie, strange human being I am. But being obsessed with bands and the people in them…keeps my mind off my own troubling issues in life.
I can't promise that this'll get me where I want to go but I hope I get better. Peace. xoxo, me.Labels: Encouragement, Life, Note-To-Self, Psychological, Stress

November's Blessings
Posted at 3:06 PM
November has had its ups and downs but it truly has been one of the best months by far. So much amazing and awesome things happened. But let's talk about the past 48 hours.
I went to a Slam Performance on Saturday night but prior to that hung out with Richard and then Taina tagged along later that day. I was glad that I stayed until late at night because I like doing things outside of the house at night. It becomes a beautiful memory.
Photos from the venue.
When I came home that night, I saw that my Amazon order came in and God, I love them so much <3.
Then came the day of the marathon. After I finished the half and finally went home, I stuck this on my wall.
 
Selfie credits to Richard, I really liked that pic and he posted on Instagram. ^^food
Really proud of myself. :)
