The depression chronicles continues #2 (part 1 in my new green notebook)

21 Jun 2024 - Friday

Man there's so much to document all the time. Today felt low and painful - very low energy, a dread flowing through my brain-body, and a lump in my gut all day. I have so many theories as to why but I don't want to write all of it down now.

I'm judging where I'm at, why I have these feelings. I'm speaking to myself of anxieties of leaving Melbourne and going back to sg in two weeks, and of not being good enough for Ronnie's wedding emcee because I'm so slow and behind and not invested, and of having to answer my parents about my time here, about my continued failure, about not having much time left of my year abroad.

It occurs to me these judgements and anxieties are just adding and adding and adding to my woes. Of course my body feels low and defeated. I'm judging myself for my inactivity rather than sitting with it and understanding it. I'm not genuinely proud of my accomplishments today (cooking lunch, managing to eat dinner, starting on my RSA, grieving / learning to stop talking to Hemant, making tea in the morning, showering, putting away my laundry).

I'm feeling my heart ectopics again for the first time since I left sg. I guess the fear is real, the dread is eating me up. Maybe. Could be a correlation though.

Perhaps what I need is to really spend quality time with myself every other day. To sit and be, and soothe. Bc that helped a little bit on Monday and Wed(with reis) , and definitely last Tuesday at the docklands.

I think a lot of it is that I'm not happy with how slow progress is towards my short and long term career goals. There are multiple goals though and I'm working towards both. Maybe tomorrow I write down what those goals are and be more smart goals about them. Focus on the bigger picture rather than the small. Yeah. That's what I'll do.

Plan:

10am wake up

1.5h to flick through phone, brush teeth out on clothes, make breakfast and eat breakfast

1130am grab a pen and book and start writing in simple terms the short term and the longer term goals for career. Then pen down in bullet points what the sub goals have been

12pm take break, maybe call my mom and dad?

1:30pm eat kichidi for lunch

3pm start getting ready, go to Roslyn and get cakes for Victoria house

4pm reach Vic house and remember to ask abt the migration person contact

Get you a white man that eats you kichidi and you.

Jiya is just simply Indian. There's not a lot of the tropey west vs east culture thing. She exists as an Indian person in the story in a way I think is so natural. Her indianess isn't the crux of love story's conflict.

Aside from the indian rep being good, really good considering Tessa is white (and ive read worse by SA authors lol), its a really well done Friends to Lovers, which imo is a trope that's hard to do. I will never not shill this book.

And he's just so wild for her. Loved her from childhood. at one point he sleeps with so many women to get Jiya off his mind because her mom hinted that she's off at college and dating so maaaany dudes and once he finds out she isn't he's celibate for NINE YEARS.

What was the book you said Tessa Bailey wrote good Indian rep? Was it Heat Stroke?

No, but same series. It's called Sink or Swim, and @jeanvanjer made me a wholehearted convert. The heroine, Jiya, is Indian American (Gujarati, specifically), and honestly, there's a lot Tessa Bailey did right, which I appreciate.

First, the sex stuff. Jiya isn't the *submissive Asian woman* trope, and she articulates her wants and desires, and Andrew is DOWN for that. There is literally a scene where he spends half a day with a hard-on doing housework stuff for her, all while she watches in a tiny sundress. By the end of that scene she's stripping and he's hammering photos to the wall in her bedroom and when he cracks it's GREAT. I wouldn't say he's submissive but he's very service-oriented if that makes sense. But yeah, I do appreciate that this is the sexual dynamic Tessa gave us for this particular couple.

Family dynamic-wise, Jiya's parents do want her to have an arranged marriage. And Tessa did a pretty damn good job of showing how modern arranged marriages are arranged- basically, both families meet, and then you go out with the person to get a feel for them. It's similar to regular dating but the end-goal for both parties is very much marriage, and it's on a shortened time frame. That's what happens in the book with Jiya and another guy, and of course Andrew is horribly jealous and Jiya is deeply conflicted.

But Jiya's parents aren't unreasonable. Like, I think that's the trap a lot of writers writing non-western cultures fall into; specifically that it's the elders' way or the highway. Are they suuuuuuper excited about Jiya and Andrew? Not at first, but after he talks to them about how much he loves her and will always be there for her, they come around.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN SABUDANA IS MADE OF TAPIOCA? I'VE BEEN EATING BOBA KICHIDI THIS WHOLE TIME???!?!?"!#(£!

[harshuki]

List of characters that I could beat in a fight don’t argue

Feyre Archeron

I would say that I feel insecure and she would say “prove men wrong” and I would say I didn’t even mention a man and she would say “you must prove men wrong <3 feminism” and I would use her aimless rambling as a distraction and I would decimate her

Jason Grace

So I would feed him some good hyderabad chicken biryani with pakora on the side and he would faint from the overload of spices and I would defeat him because I would sit in front of him while he suffered drinking a whole mango lassi (like that scene from the good the bad and the ugly) and he would just die

Leo Valdez

I would be like “incel” and he would just implode from utter anger and then when he is suffering on the ground I would tell him that I’m sorry for his shit arc (I probably wouldn’t but whatever)

Not just feyre but the whole Inner Circle

I would say “aren’t you too busy fucking each other to fight” and they would just come up with some witty response but they would have none so I would defeat them because they would be so confused

Legolas

I feel like he’s racist so I would just tear off his ears

Tom haverford

I would say “what is kichidi” and he would be so dumbfounded by the question that it would be an easy takedown

Jim halpert

I would literally point out every single one of his flaws and he would have no choice but to forfeit. I hate him so much just for the person he is so

[yeah-asbestos]

So this happened

okay so my mom just came and was like eat kichidi for lunch even though i told you you’d get to eat paruppu sadam bc we don’t have any paruppu. and i was like i hate kichidi def no. and then i was like i wish i could make a quesadilla but we don’t have any cheese. and then she was like some cheese came out of quarantine sanitizing yesterday. and i was like oh im so making a quesadilla. and then she was like you need to have veggies(cue my sister walking in to rant about how veggies are a made up concept and botanists don’t believe in them even tho she def not a botanist she’s a biotechnologist) and i was like i’ll have avocado fruit and she just sighed and left.
