i love the phrase ”singing praises”. what a beautiful combination of words. the word ’singing’ is often used for the act of singing (preforming songs or tunes with one’s voice by making musical sounds with the voice) but here it is only used to makes the word ’praise’ (express approval or gratitude) seem like such a musical word. like an art form. ’singing’ in this context can also be seen to be used because praising someone is seen as an art. it can go both ways.

Just lived through the experience of vaguely remembering a sentence along the lines of "if we have to die, we should live to the fullest" and trying to determine where it came from
The problem is, since I more or less know three languages, I could not for the life of me understand in which one I learned that phrase and so I kept suffering until I managed to grasp the source of the phrase in my memories
And the main clownery of it all? It was neither of these three languages. It was from Mozart, L'Opéra Rock (Vivre à en crever) which is in fucking french that I only know as well as a couple of years I studied it at school could give me

I need to vent because essays make me inordinately angry
I'm in the middle of my first essay for my basic composition class, which I've already failed once, and I have to redo the entire essay from square one because my thesis "doesn't take a proper stance" on the assigned issue.
Here's my problem. Our prompt is, more or less, "Should teachers give some students extra leniency because their lives are hard?" The options are "No, every student should be held to the same standard, regardless of their situations," and "Yes, we need to level the playing ground to make it fair." Equality vs. Equity and all that.
My brain has decided both of those answers are bullshit and the Real answer is you can have your cake and eat it too.
Unfortunately, this means my response, which is "Professors should offer a small amount of grace to all students, rather than singling certain students out," is not a valid response.
And unfortunately for me, the way my brain works is that I'm Not Allowed to lie. If I lie, it's obvious that I don't believe it.
I've been told a few times, "English is easy! Anything can be the right answer if you back it up properly!" That's bullshit because it doesn't apply to argumentative essays. If it did, I could keep my thesis and essay how they are.
No. Math is easy. Math is objective. Math has One Problem and One Answer. (Even the ones with more than one answer have a single way to write that answer.) Math makes sense.
English? Essays? Every new assignment has new rules, and it's all arbitrary bullshit. It's subjective, and it's stupid.

#thinking again abt the horrible things he said to me bc some of them were so stupid and mean i will never truly get over it until i go to#his house with the hammer!!#'why are you interested in the yiddish language' 'well first of all most yiddish speakers are dead it's a dying language it's a fucking#murdered language and i think it's important to preserve plus it's cool' 'well by that logic most english speakers are dead too' here's#what i should have done in that scenario. get up grab my things grab my keys and leave. versus what i did. continued to try to explain to#him why i'm passionate about the culture for hours and he never truly got it.#and it was so funny because the next day HE was all mopey. i was like 'what's your problem' he was like 'i think i feel bad about some of#the stuff i said last night...' here's what i should've said. 'yeah you rat bastard you should feel really bad you suck i hate you beg on#your knees for forgiveness.' versus what i did. a simple dose of the silent treatment#i will never get over this i will never get over this because no one i have cared so much about and thought was so kind and understanding#has been so stupid he's just an antisemite. i was like he's not a nazi he's just dumb. girl when u gotta ask urself 'is he a nazi' get out#of there pronto. and of course i feel stupid for still having feelings about this a year later. but i don't need to feel that way it's ok.#ok i'm tired. goodnight#personal log#back again. reread the texts i sent to my best friend immediately after that conversation like righttt i'm not crazy that WAS mean. thank#you melanie from a year ago!

I wish people who write anti ship posts won't put it in the main tag.
Please have some decency and manners.
Tags are created for filtering content and curating your online experience.
Putting anti ship post in the ship tag ( and not sensoring it in the post itself) is a disrespect to your fellow social platform users.
It creates an unnecessary drama in the fandom and in fact is a biting. Because it would rouse a direct response from someone who is emotional about a topic. And many people are because well, it's a fandom, we are here because we are emotional about it.
Putting anti posts in a main ship tag is a very childish behavior.
I would know. Because I used to be like that 5 years ago and I'm embarrassed of that. I outgrew it since then.
Still hate the ship. Still hate the character. But I don't post my hate or dislike in the main tags anymore.
Because I'm an adult and I do understand that we are all responsibile for curating our own online experience but if people do not agree to use instruments intended for it correctly it nullifies all the effort we put in it.
When you mistag your post it ruins recomendation algorithms. And posts and blogs get reccomended to people even if they blocked the tag.
The block function is not good enough as it is. Please don't make it work even worse than it does now.
Can we please respect each other and have some fandom culture on this site.
Thank you.

Reason for running this blog and a short story of my academic downfall.
•The primary motivation behind starting this blog is my way of dealing with a rough patch in my academics. I used to be an A-grade student until 8th grade, but then COVID hit, and I made some not-so-great choices. I pretty much skipped 9th grade, regretting it later. Despite a close call in 10th grade, salvaging an above 80% score in the board exams, the subsequent year, 11th grade, witnessed a further decline with a 65% result—a percentile mirrored by a significant proportion of students, with only a marginal 2% achieving scores surpassing 70%.
•Now, in 12th grade, things aren't looking much better. I enjoy studying, especially Biology, and I can handle Chemistry okay-ish. However, Physics is a whole different story. I don't hate the subject, but the numerical part is my kryptonite. I like the theory part, but when it comes to calculations, I'm lost. To sum it up, my Bio is decent, Chem is okay, and Physics is a struggle – might even fail if I don't do something about it soon.
•In summary, my academic profile manifests as a mixed bag. Biology stands as a bastion of relative strength, Chemistry occupies a middling ground with potential for improvement, while Physics, languishing in the abyss, demands urgent attention to avert a potential failure.
•This blog will be my space to share this academic rollercoaster, figure out what went wrong, and hopefully get some advice from others who've been through it.
