RECLAIMING DISCIPLINE CAN LOOK LIKE:

• keeping small + manageable promises to yourself daily

• healing your attention span (ex: reading books, watching movies without scrolling, letting yourself be bored)

• moving from "I'll try" to "I will"

• reframing pain + difficulty as often where the growth happens

• showing up as the person you want to be

• making mindful & nourishing choices VS choices that result in instant gratification

Hi, all!

Currently at the library trying to catch up on some ochem and physics studying. Spent yesterday doing the finishing touches on my English essays. Friday, I worked my second job, and oh my god. It was quite literally the worst day on a job I've ever ever had. Is it just me or does it seem like people are becoming way more comfortable being cruel for no reason? Fortunately, I'm not the type to bite my tongue, so I did not allow what happened to go uncalled out. I don't understand this attitude people have where being mean to people making 80 bucks a day is somehow funny??? Grow up! Ugh.

Anyway, the good news is, if things keep looking good for me, a car may be in my near future. Just have to work out a few issues, but it's looking very plausible for the new year! It would be such a great help, considering right now I'm a bus girl. I don't mind it, tbh. I'll probably still use the bus once I have a car, regularly, but I definitely need the car for internships and such. Right now, my mom has to pretty much drive me everywhere that I need, so it's really inconvenient for her as well.

Okok. Back to work!

Hope everyoe is having a good weekend!

Thanks for reading!

Annotations with Edgar Allan Poe

I feel so intensely the delights of shutting oneself up in a little world of one's own, with pictures and music and everything beautiful.

hii how was your day? it's finally weekend!

this afternoon, i took a shower, hoovered my room & the other upstairs rooms + stairs, and i did some quick stretches. just before dinner, i played piano. lately, my mom has been saying that i'm improving more often! it really makes me happy to hear that, because i feel like i tend not to notice it myself and just get stuck up on all the things hat i could improve instead, you know

in the end i didn't meet up with that old friend - for the third time now - and i just wanted to meet today so it could be over and done. it's draining to keep waiting for another time, another day, another week, etc. so i'll just tell her i've got no time for this. sad we couldn't see each other but i don't feel like she really wants to

i hope you had a great day, good night! sleep tight <3
