    did you go away to college/uni or stay home?

    stayed home because most people here in portugal just go to their nearest university. most universities don't even have dorms and, if they do, there's very few rooms. it kinda sucks because i spend 4+ hours commuting every day (a lot of walking and taking trains). that's one of the few things i envy about countries like the USA, dorm life seems like a super fun and enriching experience. i was also planning on studying in germany for a semester but covid got in the way

    of course. of course we go into another lockdown right when the semester is about to end. my mom still goes to work which means i'm gonna be stuck at home with my stepfather alone for the next fucking month. maybe if everyone hadn't run wild and ignored safety measures during the holidays this shit wouldn't have happened. we're getting over 10k cases daily.. i'm in a small country so that's insane to me

    he's already playing music loudly when he knows damn well i have multiple tests and presentations to prepare for next week. i've literally given up on studying for today, i can't concentrate at all. i'll just try again tomorrow

    when i think about how long i'm gonna be stuck in this apartment with this asshole i feel completely hopeless.. please covid vaccine i'm begging for you to work

    extreme ramblings ahead

    Spoiler

    i have way too big of an ego when it comes to intelligence and grades (two things that aren't necessarily related, i know), and i really need to let that go. whenever i don't get the best grade among my friend group, i feel like shit even if it was still a good grade. i guess being afraid people would judge me if i scored lower than them made me more judgmental myself. oooor maybe being judgmental made me afraid people would judge me too, i think that might be it. all i know is that my mom always gave more importance to my test scores than my passions and i'm sure that has affected me somehow, unfortunately. i used to have all these interests and hobbies that i was naturally good at but nobody ever nurtured that passion and pushed me to keep at it. editing, playing instruments, writing, etc. i put all that aside because school work my future job were more important. it's ridiculous

    i am aware that grades 100% do not reflect how smart you are. i knew a guy in high school who straight up never paid attention in class and didn't even try when it came to tests but he was actually very intelligent. i got better grades than him but i can confidently say he was smarter than me. although, maybe being smarter than someone is a bit of a broad statement to make. i'm sure we all have our strengths and weaknesses. intelligence is not something that's easy to measure (despite what IQ tests may tell you) and there are many different kinds of it. it's a bit frustrating that i know all this and believe in everything i've just written, but i'm still insecure whenever i don't get the best score out of the entire class on a test because of what others may think. even placing first among all test scores doesn't soothe me anymore because all i can think is "can i do this well again on the next test? will i maintain my spot and meet everyone's expectations of me?"

    both in school and in university, i've been nothing but demotivated. our educational system always finds a way to suck the life out of us and, lately, i haven't had much patience to push through my back-to-back 2 hour classes and memorize every bit of terminology the professor throws at us. my poor little country is in a tight spot and probably can't do much about that right now (although our government does waste a lot of money on stupid shit) but it pains me to see that there are economically thriving, big countries out there who still have the same type of life-sucking educational system. learning can and should be fun, but i don't think half of all teachers, principals, ministers of education even give a fuck about that

    i yearn for the day more people realize how important having a good upbringing is, the day more people stop having kids when they have no intention in being attentive parents, the day more people start giving two shits about how their kids are raised and educated. i am exhausted of this backwards century-old educational system which has remained stuck in time instead of evolving along with society

    in general, people's mental health is getting worse every year and the way our lives are structured is honestly pitiful. why do we just endure it? why are there so many people trying to set us back instead of making progress to make our lives more tolerable? why do we have to spend most of our lives stressing about so many trivial and superficial things? why do so many people insist on hurting each other? i'm exhausted of having to put on a mask every day and worry about shit that no one should have to worry about

    anyway, let me stop before i write 10 more paragraphs about everything and nothing all at once. i guess what i'm trying to say is: i hate it here and i wish life was fun

    i can't believe my best friend is getting back together with her douchebag of an ex. i remember how awful that relationship was for her and i honestly can't see that changing now with this "2nd chance". she's completely blinded by the idea of what they could be rather than thinking about how they actually are as a couple. all her friends dislike him but she refuses to take outside perspectives into consideration. this is honestly a fucking nightmare. last time they dated, he somehow managed to make her hate herself and treat pretty much everyone she knows, including me, like shit. idk if i can put up with this again. she constantly associates herself with bad people and enables them as long as she thinks they aren't hurting her directly. i'm worried about her and don't want to see her get hurt but at this point i'm starting to give up on helping her. it's getting harder and harder to overlook the fact that she allows people to be shitheads to others as long as they don't act that way towards her.

    she's honestly the only person in my life i can call a close friend and i don't want this asshole to drive us apart again, especially if it ends with her being heartbroken and crying for months again over this loser who doesn't deserve it

    How did you find out about stan twitter?

    in Random

    Posted

    i found out about stan twitter in early 2017 which is also when i started taking part in it. i was just looking through tweets from my faves and i found people with entire accounts dedicated to "stanning" and thought it looked fun

    but stan twitter was hell and it still is, i could write an entire essay on all the bad things about it because there's so much to cover. i'm glad i no longer give it the importance i used to. if it wasn't good for me when i was 15, i can only feel bad for all the 12 year olds on there nowadays

    YESS turns out i am getting the switch after all and it's arriving a lot earlier than i thought too!! i'm so happy, i ordered it yesterday and it's currently on its way. now i just have to find a way to cope with my impatience. it supposedly comes tomorrow so i really hope there aren't any delays or anything

    the only game i got for now is animal crossing: new horizons, i hope that keeps me entertained until i get more in a week or so. i might pick up breath of the wild next idk yet

    Spoiler

    lol it's kinda funny looking at my concerns in my previous post here because it turns out i did have nothing to worry about. my mom did not give a shit because, like i said, i'm grown and it's my money. she didn't even make any negative comments about it. i guess she's finally letting me grow up and has stopped judging my interests which is cool

    safe to say this has significantly improved my mood for the week

     

    Enhypen - Let Me In (20 CUBE)

    this is so pretty, it might be my favorite enhypen mv now (well they only have 2 to choose from lol but still). i wish the blue outfits had gotten more screen time than the astronaut/mechanic ones but who cares the members look amazing regardless

    the plot for their storyline is getting really interesting now too, i'm actually keeping up with theories for once
