a dose of life

how have you been doing?

I absolutely did not realize how long I've left without posting anything here (not that anyone would mind). This past week has just been normal days, with news of the Movement Control Order once again extending for another 2 weeks. All in all, if it's for the best I have no complaints.

Besides that, I also received an email stating that I'll soon be starting my online classes for the CAT papers I'll be taking this year so preparing my mentality for this is one of my biggest aims for now. Other than that I've also applied for a few online classes through edX; The Science of Happiness and Tsinghua Chinese: Start Talking with 1.3 Billion People.

Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to taking a break from Twitter but my mind is slowly losing interest in it- we'll have to see in a couple of days.

On deactivating Instagram: I feel happier no cap. My insecurities and worries have lessened drastically since I'm not comparing myself to others much anymore.

"Living for your own self". I like that sentence now.

It's OK to have just enough selfishness to get you through worrying days and just enough selflessness to still stay humble.

Be happy everyone, smile for the littlest of things. :)

inner struggles

 i feel like such a failure. little things going wrong, or not being the student i hoped to have been. i'm overreacting ik, but i think that i should validate my own feelings. i get so many advices from my family- constantly repeating that that one thing did not make you a failure and i do understand that, but when my feelings overwhelm me it's so hard to think of it otherwise. this is the one factor that's always caused me to fall ill before/ during or after exams and it's been this way for as long as i've known myself. i don't study as much as my peers do, i think. and since my sleep cycle is commonly 10pm-6am, sleeping early makes me feel so insecure about myself compared to my friends who stay up the night to study. but ik i shouldn't be and that we all have different studying methods. nevertheless, when there are so many doing one thing and i'm not it makes me feel terrible.  many times, i'm too hard on myself and i wish i wasn't.

what's up with me?

So... I got a scholarship! The best thing is that- it's at my dream university and the exact course I want. Alhamdulillah.  - oh that would be Sunway College, CAT-ACCA. I've actually started my online classes, it was early April. So far I've had 6 tests in total for the 2 subjects I'm currently taking; FA1 and MA1. Am I worried? hella YEA! the min requirement for my scholarship is 65% and we've been having past-faced classes for this whole month. Alhamdulillah my wifi is all good so I'm not having many problems in that case, just tired sometimes. But I'm not complaining, I chose this course and I knew how it might be. Plus, I can't tell you how much I enjoy learning all this! I've also joined a volunteering club at Sunway- in which I applied for an IP Programme (it's like being sub-directors) and got selected yeay! I had a video interview with them actually, so that was a new experience... I got so nervous tho 😰 I'm now an IP of...
