  • It’s been a long time since I’ve commented on these weekly check ups. I’m so sleepy… But for the first time in over a month, I feel caught up in a good chunk of my schoolwork. Can’t wait for break!

    I accomplished a lot this semester but I just can’t process it yet. I’m too much in the thick of things, blinded by stress and exhaustion lol. Overall though, pretty hopeful. Things look bright.

    Hope everyone is doing well, and/or things get better soon!


  • I went out with friends and realized the eclipse was happening lol. So we hung out with a random group of people for a bit and got some photos.

    Other than that, I’ve been burning out. Somehow the past weekend helped me recover in spite of it being busy then too. So I dunno. Life’s weird with it’s random issues and solutions. I’m definitely tired though. As much as I like being at uni, I want a break. I’m worried I’ll burn out again… But we’ll see.

    In other news, I’m hungry. I’m craving desserts. And I miss my dog.


  • I’m a busy bee. Last week was my club’s welcome week, so I’m behind on some of my assignments. I also have a midterm and a test this week. I lost track of those dates because I’ve been busy planning for my club this month and for next month… My club schedule is more organized than my school schedule. Kinda awkward.

    Also working my part-time job. It’s been fun, but now that one person is leaving, I know that I’ll have more responsibilities given to me. We only have five people on the team— two seniors, one intern, and two student workers— so it can be rough. I’m still learning how to navigate the CMS with my fellow student worker, so it’ll be interesting to see what new duties I’ll have.

    Overall, not a bad week? I just know it’ll be an exhausting one. (Like last week.) ._. Hope the workload gets lighter, but I think I’ll have to wait for a holiday break for that to happen.


  • Haven’t degoogled. If I want to degoogle, I need to sort through a lot just to get started. I’ve never been much of a social media person, though. My only issue is that a lot of people around me get their conversational topics from social media, which is sometimes enlightening but mostly kinda bleh to me.

    I used to lurk through Reddit. Now I pop on Lemmy occasionally. When it comes to communication I prefer texting, email, or in-person.

    Social media is more of a last resort for me for communication. Hate Snapchat— uninstalled it and never looked back. I want to uninstall Instagram, but it’s one of the ways I contact people. I had to install Facebook for Facebook Messenger based on some policy my club has for board members… Hate that. Once I graduate from university I’d love to uninstall both, but I’ll probably keep instagram for the sake up keeping up with old friends.

    And no to TikTok. So many people have it but I don’t want to join in. Overall, it does make me a lil sad that I’m into privacy because I feel like I’m missing out on connecting with people. Other times, I don’t think I’m missing out on much at all.


  • I forgot about this thread because of how busy the week has been. It feels like this week has been a month. I had to guide eight new students around campus while keeping up with the new changes in a tight schedule. They were a chaotic bunch, but fortunately pretty responsible. I felt sorry for some others because their mentees were troublemakers or just dramatic.

    I’m never doing this again lol. It’s a nice experience to have once, but I don’t like how I get a random group of people that are possibly good or bad. Yesterday I was recuperating from the madness. Today, I think I’ll need to face some issues I put aside for this job. But man, I’m so sleepy.
