100 days of productivity

Today my regular uni classes started, but they’re still online for now. I had a few lectures including a Physiology one, which I still have troubles with. Also Biochemistry which seems like it’s going to be the hardest exam this term.

What I did today:

- Biochem Lecture 2 out of 25 (ugh pt 2)

- worked on my Anatomy presentation

- organised my Notion setup for the new year

- finally cleaned up my email

- Duolingo French

I managed to set up a guest lecture for my fellow students on the diagnostic markers of genetic diseases in cats and dogs! Still have to think about what I want to include in that exactly, but the lecturer seems very open to what I have to say and is waiting to hear my opinions and wants.

The night is young (;;;;;;;) so I might do some more reading on my Anatomy test for tomorrow and code a little! I found a great Python textbook.

Wish me luck,

xoxo

Hello! Just checking in. How are you doing today? If there is anything stressful or important that you need to get done, I wish you the best of luck! -Support Anon

Hello 🥰 I’m doing good actually, rewarded myself with a bottle of wine after my BioChem exam today (also serves a purpose in writing some steamy Yami smut 😉) I am keeping ahead of my assignment schedule, but there’s always things to be done, so thank you 💕 

And thank you for checking up on me sweetheart 💖 If I could, I would shower you with love and affection 🥰 I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Study Buddy ~ s.hw

masterlist

okay so this might sound stereotypical (im sorry :/)

but hyunwoo is the jock! of the school

so even though he TELLS his professors that his education comes before his training,

it kinda doesn’t

he always put wayyy more time in training and practice than studying

that’s why he got a D on the last  T H R E E  biochem exams he’s taken

ITS NOT HIS FAULT BIOCHEM IS SO HARD

but it kinda is his fault because it’d probably be easier if he studied

so his professor told him that if he failed another exam, he’d be benched for the season

he didn’t believe it 

until his COACH said the same thing ?!

life

is not fair for baby

butt !

he’s walking through the campus one day when he finds you 

he recognizes you because you sit right across from him in his BIOCHEM

you’re sitting under a tree with a book, dilligently writing out notes with highlighters and colored pens and sticky notes

he sees the book you’re taking notes from

its 

a biochem book !

are you his angel ?

he walks up to you all like

“uh hi um I was wondering if you know who I am”

you’re all like “oh um,, I know you’re in my biochem but forgive me I forgot your name”

so he tells you his name and you tell him yours

he sits next to you and asks you if he can get your notes

“they look so neat and nice ! and, I’m not sure if you noticed, but I’m barely surviving in that class right now,”

you chuckled cutely, thinking about helping this guy

he is adorable 

“how about we study together for the next exam ? I was just writing out some pre-notes for the chapter after this one, so I’m already kind of aware of what we are currently learning

you study AHEAD ?! WHAT IN THE WORLD

hyunwoo is like ??

“uhm yes ! I would love to go over what we are learning right now, especially since I was asleep last class, so I have no idea what we’re on right now” he said smiling

this was gonna be hard work for you, wasn’t it

it was

the two of you spent a lot of time together the next few weeks

it was a lot of ground to cover ! this was a big ass chapter

he didn’t realize it, but he might have been spending more time with you than training

not that he minded, you were super cute and funny

you slowly started feeling something for this cute oaf too ugh

one day after about an hour of reteaching to him what you two had learned in the last class, (he likes the way you explain things, it’s so much easier for him to understand)

you guys decided to take a little brain break and talk about your personal lives over some tea

he is so physically gifted 

and loves kids ! 

he said that if he was good at book smarts and studying and all that, he would take the time out to become a pediatrician

you went all AW and smiled so cutely at his face

he was all pink in the cheeks and hiding his face in his hands

and you shared your passions and wishes for the future

he was like wow, smiling like a crazy person but trying to Play It Cool (see what i did there)

he just felt happy to be talking about his future and thoughts freely with someone who wouldn’t tease or ridicule him for what he thinks

you go to his games and practices ! AH

when he sees you out there, his heart does somersaults in his chest

despite what people might think, very few girls have come to games and practices only for him

so you doing this is  p r e t t y  special

he totally likes you so much UGH

wants to ask you out but isn’t sure if you’re into him

but you are ofc

EXAM WEEK !

yall are  c r a m m i n g

you are running around together doing all sorts of things

when he finds out that he has a big game THE SAME DAY as your big exam

your professor told him that the test is in the morning and the game is in the evening, 

so if he fails this, he won’t be able to participate in the game

if he wasn’t sweating before, he’s REALLY SWEATING NOW

you are like

the only thing calming him down anymore

everything else gives him anxiety

it’s the night before the test and he asks you over to study up just a little bit more

of course you come over

and to your (not really) surprise,

he is reciting the facts and formulas almost perfectly !

after a little over an hour and a half of practicing, he hugs you really tight and thanks you for everything

then he asks you to stay for dinner

and you’re like oh

but you do 

and he can kinda cook ! 

(it was actually takeout but he would never admit it)

you two kept talking after dinner and ended up falling asleep on the couch together

thank GOODNESS you had an alarm set on your phone because NEITHER OF YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN UP

AND HYUNWOO WOULD’VE MISSED THE TEST

so you hugged him really tight and thanked him for the dinner, apologizing for passing out on his couch

(he had a great night with you though)

you run to your place to change uber quickly and get your stuff for biochem

and then you see him one last time and wish him the best of luck, giving him a big old hug

he smiles, hugging you back as you get a whiff of his cologne, did he always smell so darn good ?

you both took the world’s longest test

and when it was over, he had a quizzical look on his face, but he said he thinks he did okay

MIDDAY ROLLS AROUND AND he got a 94% WHAT IUHULYUJFBFEKJVNEF

soft big baby is jumping around and running to find you ! he owes you everything

you get the news and you’re like UHEDIWUFHWIKCN I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT SILLY

and he’s like IT WAS ONLY FROM YOUR HELP 

and yall hug again but

he 

kissed you

and you’re like

:o

:)

now yall are smiling and giggling together

he tells you to come to his game

you’re like “uh hello? ofc I’ll be there !”

and he’s like “as mine, let me be your boyfriend” 

AIUBDUVBY YOU EXPLODE AND SAY YES AND HE HUGS YOU AGAIN 

he’s on top of the world

LATER ON HE ENDS UP WINNING THE GAME FOR HIS TEAM AND BEING SO HAPPY 

you’re by his side and he’s passing class now and playing sports and the world is right for big baby today !!!! he really likes you

ognikifklnrgutghuo you like him too AHHHHHH

Hello again!! The last three weeks have been so hectic 😭 I’ve had a midterm at least once a week on top of huge projects and presentations. I’m so tired haha. I did manage to get brunch with a friend though amidst all of that, and my crepes were so fluffy~ I did have to spend 8 hours in the library yesterday cramming for my exam today though, which wasn’t as fun...

Wish me luck tonight as I try to conquer Biochem!

There was a new shiba at the dog park today and we played a lot (?) She gave me kisses and bites and let me pet her a lot (!!!) Also you can see my dog in the corner who is working hard and now runs on 3 paws. She runs a lot. We put her on the grass to let her poop and she starts running and sniffing all around i bet she misses doing dog stuff. Also me in my aunt s elevator after walking the dogs, my friend s leg with a rainbow and another rainbow at my town’s library. Tbh studying organic chem is a blessing rn (?) First of all it’s not maths (eh) and it’s something I enjoy. Also i started having some kind of routine again and it’s my fave thing. Lectures start on monday and it’s going to be a hell of a semester (!!) let me tell you about it (!!!) I start inorganic chem and organic chem 2 (that are both annual courses), organic chem lab (i think both theory and real lab stuff), physical chem 1, physical chem 1 lab (same as orgo lab) and biochem. And i’m ready to diee. I’m taking organic chem 1 exam in november and i hope i’ll manage to keep up with everything. Wish me good luck and send me lots of science

A Day So Beautiful

So today was basically one of those “chill” days because even though I had a lot of things planned out for the day, these things aren’t exactly very tedious. In fact, most of it were just dates with friends and running errands :))

So today started with my GenBio II Lab experiment. The experiment aims to show the different parts of the pig’s heart and how the circulation of blood works.

I am in complete awe at how beautiful a heart is. Like if this is already how beautifully-made a pig’s heart is, what more can you expect for a human heart? I seriously can’t wait to continue discovering the human organs. And I seriously can’t wait to be able to touch other organs in order to help people in the future with my knowledge.

It was just so life-changing. While we were learning about it, and while I was holding the heart, I imagine it to be an actual human heart. Imagine how much blood this heart pumped? Imagine how many heart aches it endured? Oh my, this experiment made me feel alive (which is actually very funny because HEARTS literally makes us alive hahahaha)

After this experiment, my lab partner Angel asked if we can have lunch together. And I was super G! We went to UPTC and had Starbucks and pizza at SnR! It was super fun because today was different. Instead of talking about our families and goals in life, we talked about our past love life with each other. It’s so fun because we felt the same things. We’ve gone thru heartbreaks and right now, we know that we deserve so much better :) I’m so proud of both of us. And I know we’ll be able to find what we deserve. Especially for Angel because she’s really an Angel!!! She deserves nothing but the best. All of us do.

And then, when we got back to Ateneo, we planned to walk around. Before that though, she accompanied me to go to my Biochem Prof to consult with her for my grades. I got a B+ (89.88) and i got exempted for my Finals!!! But what struck me the most is Ms. LIm’s comment to my essay for the last LT (See pic below) :))))) Oh gosh, I pray to God that I’d rlly become a doctor.

And yeah so Angel and I walked around Ateneo and I took her to LST :) It was such a fun walk. And then IT RAINED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (But its still super hot out but atleast it rained!!) So we said our goodbyes already and wished each other luck for the next time we see each other we’d be taking our last moving exam for Bio :)

At 5PM, Gabe and I went out to get coffee. I wasn’t supposed to go eventhough it’s our usual hang out coffee sesh every week because I was trying to save money because I know I had a lot of “dates” with people this week (huhu and yeay at the same time; huhu for my wallet but yeay for my heart!). But Gabe said he’d treat me so I don’t have to worry so yeayyy!!! Who can say No to good coffee yea? UGH I SHOULD PROBABLY BLIND DATE GABE AND WENNY BC THEY’RE BOTH LIKE SO PRECIOUS TO ME UGH.

*Sighs in relief*

and just when I thought this day can’t get any better…. my roommates had dinner together tonight!! ALL FOUR OF US!!!!!!!!! Like it’s rlly rare for this to happen because its usually just me and Anj who goes to our dorm cafeteria (Ebais or Ignacio) to eat dinner, but tonight, it was all of us and my, I hope we’d get more nights like this :) Nights with unforced laughter, and genuine friendships <3

I am genuinely filled with happiness and I rlly can’t thank God enough :( This whole year was about growing. Just purely growing. And I am so blessed for all the people whom I met along the way, and the people who have stayed with me.

I’ll be sleeping with a pocket full of stars and smiles tonight :) Father God and Lord Jesus, if you’re reading this, THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING. I feel Your love through the people you have blessed me with :)))

And so to end this long post, I want to quote British diarist, Samuel Pepys. He wrote this on February 1662 and I just read it in Gretchen Rubin’s “The Happiness Project” and it pretty much summarizes everything in my life right now — (except that I’m not 29 yet haha)

“This day by God’s mercy I am 29 years of age, and in very good health, and like to live and get an estate, and if I have a heart to be contented I think I may reckon myself as happy a man as any is in this world, for which God be praised.

So to prayers and to bed.”
