Magical Exam

Dream Diary March 3, 2024

Background: I was writing a blogpost last saturday and realized the difficulty I have in composing so my frustration might have reflected through this dream.

I used to be tormented by dreams of exams because I disliked school but this dream was different The exam was uhm. magical? First, as I read the questionaire, it came with a pop up visualization as a hint. The question was about how Dr. Rizal became a world reknowned hero. Then, a popup visual of footballers with their uniform numbers came out from the testpaper. Somehow, I got the hint that it was referring to the age of Rizal where he displayed how remarkable he was. As I wrote on the test paper in my ugly scribbles. It transformed into written words in blue and it moves to in an orderly way upwards to maximize the space of the paper. However, I was so frustrated in norganizing my thoughts that I kept striking through the words until there is no more space to write my answer in. I requested for another answer sheet and saw the proctors puzzled face. As I resumed, I heard an inner voice. It told me that I will never finish it if I focus too much on the details in arranging it by chronological order of the age. Instead, just like everything in life. I have to visualize and think of my main argument/end goal. Then, use every factual component to support the main argument.

It reminded me of my brother's instructions to me with regards to language. He told me no don't translate it word by word. You should compose the sentence first and translate it as a whole. And, I always reasoned with my brother that I couldn't do it.

Then, the inner voice told me. You cannot do it because you lack confidence in yourself. You think you are slow when in fact you are very smart. You are quick witted so stop pretending to be dumber than you are. You can do it but it will take practice as you need to reframe your mind.

Reflection: I will be more concious from now on. I will try to visualize the end goal of every thing I do.

The Sun is approaching the last degrees of Aries, giving us the opportunity to master our fiery impulses. A good time to learn!

My new ship just launched and one of them doesn't even have a fucking name

For real tho, this un-named Wan Jian Disciple is such a snarky bitch. I love him.

Kudos to @grubus for making such enjoyable OCs

"I think this is the most inhuman; and human, that I've ever felt.." MUCH CAN HAPPEN IN A YEAR. IN FIVE YEARS. A DECADE. imagine how much can happen in a century. just ONE (1). How will you grow? what phases do you find? even in 5 years, you will find patterns.

wow this post got depressing really fast. sorry

if you think about it. if you were just some random no-name cultivator who somehow got invited to the phoenix mountain night-hunt, and you heard something about 1. hanguang-jun of the sterling reputation, 2. wei wuxian the demonic cultivator already flouting social norms, and 3. a forced kiss....which would you believe? that lan wangji forcibly kissed wei wuxian? or that wei wuxian forcibly kissed lan wangji?

depressing thoughts.
