au where XCOM gets back the Commander but they're like. Fucked Up even more than usual verses. And maybe its recoverable! but the only way XCOM can have them doing tactics in a reasonable time frame is. to build another tank and stick them in that.

additional concepts from squeaker whose idea this was:

- lean into the horror where central is like "we can let them out and let them recover... later. when the war is over" and then even after leviathan its always "but what if the war isn't over??? what if there is bigger emergency???"

- central being afraid to face the commander after what he's done to them is another reason he might not be ready to let them go

- or worse... "give them X years to heal" and "retank them immediately" were mutually exclusive options

- if we ignore the line about the commander not having any muscle atrophy (which to some extent we already are with this premise) there could be a parallel to the elders

anyway this is a shout out to squeaker your AUs continue to be bright lights in life & this will live in my head rent free

(I can't write it tho bc personal tank symbolism interacting with concept of 'retank, die tanked' makes Brain Bad)

Hello

Hi, this is a blog that will be used to track and document my college experiences from my second year on. As of now, I am a Marketing major which is under the business school... Please hold your laughter and scoffing at my major choice (directed at you STEM majors). Currently I have just successfully completed my first year in college. I think that there are several big takeaways from my first two semesters. 

FIRST: Academics always trump extracurriculars

Being able to balance your mental health, academics, and any extracurriculars is extremely important. Coming from an International Baccalaureate Program, I did not think that school would be super challenging for me. I was also able to acquire leadership positions at my high school fairly easily, but as College is a lot bigger, I panicked and jumped at as many possibilities as possible. This included picking up the position of Marketing Director for a residence hall organization, videographer for a Chinese American organization, club rowing, and even a MGC sorority (rushing for the first semester and then becoming historian and webmaster for the second semester). In my first semester, I took 15 credits: Macroeconomics, Experiencing Music, Survey of Calculus 1, a course required by my university, and Introduction to Business. The two hardest courses here then were for sure Macroeconomics and Survey of Calc. But mostly Survey of Calc, as I found Macro to be a relatively easy class that did not require me to study weeks in advance to perform well on the exams. Calculus was hard for me from the beginning to the middle of the semester, I truly did not know what I was doing and was very frustrated about this. However, I was also juggling so many other extracurriculars and organizations that had time commitment requirements. Reflecting back on this, I see that I prioritized my extracurricular organizations and spent a majority of my time completing tasks for my organizations over studying for my exams. Remember when I said that Macro was easy? Yeah, it was definitely a class that came easily to me, but I finished that class 1% off from an A-. After actually dedicating time to my calc class, the information finally started to click and make sense after many many practice problems. However, I also finished that class off 1% away from an A-. Interesting how that works, huh? I still look back at that semester bitterly as I have concluded that had I not been overly involved in so many different organizations, I would have been able to allocate more of my time for studying or going to office hours and might have been able to get an A or an A+ in both of those classes.  As my second semester is coming to an end, I realized that no matter how bitter I was about my almost A’s, that I ran into the same exact problem from my first semester in my second semester. I was still involved in all of the same organizations, excluding rowing, too many events happened late at night for many of my organizations and would conflict with the early practice times (I would sometimes only get 3 hours of sleep). And while yes, I could argue that I still was super involved, this second semester still shows the same result as my first: I prioritize my extracurriculars over my academics. As a person that prided themselves on taking academics very seriously, this first year at college seemed to show a complete 180 from the previous 12 years of schooling that I had done.  That being said, I have turned down all leadership positions in my organizations to better focus on my academics without having the weekly officership requirements. I have also cut down on the organizations that I am involved in to just my sorority, since (lol) that is not something that I want to just drop as it is an organization that I take a lot of pride in and enjoy a lot, much to my parents’ dismay. However, with this next semester and academic school year coming up, I am utilizing more efficient ways to schedule things in and will actually schedule in study times into my schedule. I plan on making use of both my bullet journal and google calendars as I will get visual notifications from both and phone notifications from my calendar events. 

SECOND: Mental health always trumps everything

Sometimes things just don’t work out. Whether it be relationship related, organization related, or school related. The most important thing is that you do what is actually best for you. This second semester as I continued to overexert myself, I actually had a mental breakdown in front of some board members before going to another organization’s events. Earlier that day, my parents had come to visit me to tour where I would be moving to for the next school year. While it was very nice seeing them again, they ended up cutting their visit short because I had little to no energy to actually interact with them. I was so tired from doing a late night event for one of my organizations and had barely gotten any sleep that night. So when they left I took a nap for about 30 minutes before having to get up and go to, you guessed it, a board meeting. As I am about a 24 minute walk from main campus, I ended up crying through those 24 minutes because of how mentally unhappy I was. This is what people like to refer to as “burnout”. I had been to every single required event despite there being a system where I could switch off with other people to go to those events. Why? I enjoy being social, I enjoy supporting friends, and at this point, I was so lonely and sad, that going to these events made me happy because it felt like I was temporarily eased of my sadness and my loneliness. As I type this I realize how sad that makes me sound, oh boy. But yes, burnout is a very real problem that many people can experience given enough time for build up and improper time management. It is okay to say no to things. It is okay to reach out to others when you need help. There is no such thing as over communication. The worst thing about this burnout experience was that I had not communicated with my employer, my organizations, nor my friends about how much I had going on. I only told them after I had my mental breakdown. It felt like a surge of different emotions were coming out of me all at the same time. At first I was sad, and then those sad tears turned into anger. Anger over how my organizations were requiring so much, anger over people that weren’t pulling their weight, and anger over how I had let myself get to this point.   The most interesting thing about this entire experience perhaps, is that I tend to fill my void of sadness or emptiness with work and this time, the work happened to be for my organizations. Something had happened at the beginning of the second semester that had made me really kind of sad. To take my mind off of things I set my mind on something different like my organizations. This actually worked spectacularly well at keeping my sadness away, and so I continued to give my all into each organization. However, towards the end of the semester, I found that I had been hurting myself mentally by exhausting myself so much. You need to take self care days, you need to take care of yourself and learn to love yourself. Only then can you contribute and partake in other external activities. If your mental health and state are not doing well, then there is no way that you can give back to others and give be able to give back well.  Something small that I picked up this second semester was watching little retanking videos before I slept. They were very peaceful and were able to help put me at ease before sleeping.  That being said, I feel like another main contributing factor to my decline in mental health was that I procrastinated... a lot. Very bad yes. All of these factors combined to make one huge toxic cocktail type deal. 

THIRD: Staying proactive and productive can help you

It is so important to keep track of when assignments and exams are due. During this semester, I had a few... surprise... exams come up that were definitely not a welcomed surprise. This would make me stress study for exams and cram for two days straight. This is not fun. Pulling all nighters is not the way to go if you can avoid it. This second semester, I have missed small quizzes because of my lack of planning and scheduling. While I still ended up getting an A in that class, my stress would have been significantly reduced had I planned ahead and stuck to the schedule that I would have made. I feel like this takeaway is pretty straight forward and there isn’t really too much to talk about regarding this topic as it is also pretty self-explanatory.

Visiting aka Exercise Day for the jarred bettas. Two of the females I'm keeping (other than the culls who need to be retanked). I have another I need to jar but need more jars. They have a good tail span and great personalities which is what I'm looking for. #bettas https://www.instagram.com/p/CKbdfJqhnts/?igshid=1seoq3y2nqkx3

Possible placement for the 5 gal! Since Orion got retanked to the 10 gal and I have the supplies for the 5 gal set up (minus substrate and a few extra decor) I want to set up a third tank. I reeeally wanna plant this one but the only time we've ever done a planted tank was the first family tank we ever had and it died within like, two weeks. Unfortunately I have nowhere else for this tank to go so if I don't use it for a fish I can always use it for back up

one day I'll fly away

yes, one day, you will come into my life just as organically as she did, and we will be friends, and we will inspire each other, and we will fuel and retank and maintain each other, and we will fly together. we will smile together, at each other. and then after some time, we will realize something so important. and we will talk, and we will think, and we will ask to kiss, and we will think some more. we will come to the same conclusion. we will tell each other we are both scared, but we both know that we can see ourselves falling in love with each other. but we don't say it aloud. we say it in our eyes, our fleeting touches, our conversations, our laughs. we are scared, but it is so comforting knowing we are scared together, going forth together, growing together, learning together.

I don't know if this can ever happen for me. but I want to believe because I have to to maintain my sanity. I have to to keep my hopes up. I have to to believe in love. I have so much love to give. I want to give it to you. I hope you enter soon. I'm ready to be scared together if it means rightness, love, and of course, passion. if I fix myself up and wait for you, will you come? I only have visions of being stabbed in the heart. but maybe you will stab it in a way that doesn't ever hurt me. maybe, maybe, maybe. I want to believe so badly that all the love I have in me isn't for nothing. I want to believe that I can be in your arms one day, forever, and we will forever be happy, forever make each other happy.

maybe I love you, maybe I don't. I'm waiting and hoping and wishing and praying my dreams won't be for nothing. I deserve this, right?
