I finally finished Future Connected. The game has been out for over two years at this point
#xcde#xenoblade#whats up. im alive#ive been posting on my sideblog awareriki pretty frequently these days but have had no time to play games#and suddenly its winter break#and i remember i haven't finished this game#this semester almost killed me#trying to do engineering and music at the same time does not leave a lot of room for playing videos game#unfortunately i will not be purchasing xenoblade 3 yet#i doubt i'll have time to finish it over winter break just based on the number of hours I've seen people say it takes to see most of it#and i would want to go through basically every sidequest#looks fun though! i haven't seen much gameplay but the characters look pretty fun#i might buy it in the summer but honestly i dont know what my summers gonna look like#because last summer i had a 9-5 and spent like a collective two weeks traveling to opposite sides of the country#and i was living in another city! so who knows#its wild to think about how much i've changed since i started this blog like i was a little baby when i posted that first photoset#but anyways ive got some stuff coming up and maybe ill do another landscape gradient thing people seemed to really like that one

#I am being so civil and mature about this asshole in my class#but every day I have to hear him speak is a day I get a little closer to killing a man with fire#he hasn’t even tried any shit since he decided to go off for ten minutes in front of the whole class about how much he hated my art#but like. he so clearly loves the sound of his own voice and he’s so full of shit so hearing him talk makes me so mad#man clearly has issues which I get but also work that shit out with a therapist instead of taking it out on your classmates#like damn dude sorry you’ve never had an original idea in your life but that’s not my problem leave me alone and check your fuckin ego#anyway. so glad I’m almost done w the semester and then I’ll never have to deal with him again#delete later

registering for new subjects in the next semester always makes me want to kill myself
#i always forget the day the enrolment starts and when i finally pull up to the computer after lunch all the best subjects already have#full capacity like whats wrong with you studious sixty credit having excited to learn stuff nerds.....#can't you just take shittier subjects so us cool ppl can have the good ones for once......#also why do the winter semester courses always have to suck so much ballsack AND almost exclusively take place in the evening#do you seriously want me to be exiting class when it's already dark out i literally will kill us all#mp

this semester cooked me so hard i’m not even gonna lie
#tw kind of a vent#remember how i said i was entering my academic weapon era? well that fell flat on its face#i let my mental issues win a lot of this semester and i regret it a lot#there were days i couldn’t even get out of bed even to do the things i enjoyed#i isolated so much to the point where i almost fully convinced myself that i wasn’t meant to be anywhere.#that everyone was just better off without me#the only thing that made me want to get out of bed was my job which is kind of ironic#then my uncle getting killed made it spiral even more#i’m just. ready for summer at this point LOL.#i’m doing better mentally but my grades and gpa were very much sacrificed in a way#it is what it is at this point#to be deleted

#i spend so mad god damn time bitching on this website. its bc i dont talk to ppl. whens the last time i had a non functional conversation?#uuuuhhh last weekend or maybe the weekend before that? so like i gotta complain somewhere. so if i stop complaining u can assume i made#friends lmao. ugh. its just. im worried. im worried abt how this semester is gonna go. how this phd program is gonna go#bc i spent the last 2 years destroying myself. realized ive gotta stop doing that. haven't figured out how to stop and now im gonna triple#the amount of pressure im under while trying to do things in a more healthy way. its just like. it objectively doesnt seem like a formula#for good things to happen. im more worried for how catastrophic its gonna b on my brain than i am abt the things i think most ppl would b#concerned abt. like im not worried abt planning and executing a project or teaching beyond fear of the unknown#its like. ive done these things before. theyre difficult but u make due and tackle the problems. but when it comes to: how to maintain a#healthy school/life balance? i dont even kno where to start with that. i just dont bc when u have a learning disability things just take#more time but like how much time is too much? where does it end? i dont kno how to manage it and i dont wanna hate my project by the end#of this. i want to b excited and not paralyzed bc im afraid i cant change my behavior and its gonna kill me#and im worried bc im meeting with my advisor for the 1st time since march before i agreed to join thr lab and have i prepared for this#project which is almost complete unrelated to what i did in my last lab? no bc ive been managing data and im still not done managing data#bc i cant focus bc i collected that data in a way that was actively self destructive. and i mean i kno itll b fine. thr guy seems nice i#just hate that im showing up devoid of enthusiasm bc its all been drowned out by the fear. and thats also gonna make teaching a problem#bc its hard to b excited abt things when there's a hole in your chest and ur desperate for someone to tell u how to fix it. but idk helping#ppl does usually make me feel better so maybe itll b a good thing. forgot how much i feel like im dying when i sit in meetings and#classroom tho lol. god its been 2yrs since i was a student. classes feel like such bullshit now. and yet if i dont get all As i might die#my students better b good. i have the 1st lab section bc thr lead ta couldnt do that time. so im the trial lab and i start fucking Monday#who tf does labs the 1st week of class? ugh. also its an intro bio so like 2/3 of thr class r freshman. lil bby 18yos and some r non bio#majors. and ive been warned that sometimes there r problems with ppl who don't believe in evolution and cause problems. pls let my classes#b good. im not that worried. its just gonna b annoying as fuck. im not good at being authoritative#ugh. i should b reading papers so i dont look like too much of an idiot tomorrow. itll b fine im just an anxious freak. a lil over a week#until i can try to find a therapist. probably seek medication bc i dont kno how else to stop this bullshit. annoying. i grew up with a dad#who gets anxious abt the idea of taking too much medication when he tskes a single ibuprofen. in this household we feel pain and then we#die miserable. this is all his fault. we have the same brain.im just a lil more irradidic than him#its so funny i say that bc im like the least irradic person ever. i do the same things every god damn day. im just irradic in terms of#sometimes i feel like my brain is on fire and im a cry bby lol#whatever. enough bitching. ive got papers to read. or maybe ill just go to bed and read them tomorrow 🙄#unrelated

as an underclassman early morning classes and boring classes were what i detested and feared most of all. now it’s difficult classes and evening classes. my evening class last semester actively made me want to become the joker with how disruptive it was to my schedule. i sure would have never wanted to switch into a 9am yawnnnn history lecture class but at this point that sounds like a dream compared to all the tons of active work outside of class with every single professor trying to scare us to death on the first day. i would rather wake up early every day than suffer the hell that i’m currently slated for. last semester brutalized me so badly it’s not even funny i can’t do the same workload again yet worse i need a relative mental break. i do not have that dog in me. i will be going to my advisor screaming and crying tomorrow asking her to make some changes
#like i will take almost anything i can get into at this point#if it fits into my schedule contributes to my actual credit requirements and does not actively make me upset#sounds perfect#and like i am a night owl. it is known i am a night owl#but i can suffer the pain of waking up early for the greater good#i cannot suffer the pain of multiple classes at once in which the professor acts like we don’t have other work to do#like genuinely the workload hasn’t even started yet this semester we’ve had one day of each class so far#and i am like already in absolute dread and depression. just from how they’re making me feel right off the bat#i need out#i need to fix this i thought it would be ok back in november but i don’t know if the pain of last semester really sunk in until afterwards#during winter break i was like oh yay break :]#now that i’m back at school i’m like Huh. so there’s something i never actually recovered from i guess#like now that i’m here i’m like you’re telling me .. i have to do it again. even worse.#and like i was off for 3.5 weeks. but now i understand no amount of time would have ever been enough to prepare me for this#i don’t care if it means i have more work later i’m ahead on credits#this course i wanna drop isn’t strictly required anyway so like.#why kill myself. especially now of all times#sounds like a problem for a future me who isn’t having a mental episode#peach rambles

I've acquired a bit of an old man sleep schedule. I can't stay awake till 11 most nights and usually wake up naturally around 445-530. Not that I'm complaining, I am much happier as a morning person than I was as a night person, but it is a bit funny.
#i woke up at 530 this morning after falling asleep at 11 last night#thank you for the pet pics in my inbox i fell asleep looking at them i guess#since thats what my phone opened to this morning#i did intend on going back to sleep but then the fire alarms went off and i felt well i ought to get up in case somethings amiss.#nothing was or is#but i got up anyway#ordinarily id go to the coffee shop to do my work but the sunday morning shift always kills my vibe and i dont want to go to starbucks#because their coffee isnt very good and they dont have solid decaf options#and so on. anyway im almost done with the book i have to read for class and then i can start on the essay due tonight#i already have a good idea of what i want to say. its the how thats the problem#its only 800 words which i can churn out very quickly but theyll need some refinement#and then i do have homework that will probably keep me up past 11#alas. the semester is almost over.#i get to go to school tomorrow and then work the rest of the week. im tired of it really#i want a real break#but im 20 and the time for real breaks has passed. i need money and a degree.#on a positive note the collie guy im fond of liked my fb post this morning#i didnt think hed see it#no comment of course but the acknowledgement makes me smile.#i miss dog shows#so much#i think im going to reach out to one or two more breeders. unfortunately theyre out east so itll be a little more difficult#to meet their dogs#because most of the dogs we have here are out of one breeder out west#but id like to make more connections. im still exploring what id like to do with puppy outside of confo#herding seems like heaps of fun and i know a lot of places in co and wa that are really great for euro style herding#i need to attend more sports events#ive only been to herding and bitework#herding is definitely my fave though. nothing beats seeing those dogs in their element lol#anyway i cant imagine anyone read this far

i was talking with my dad because i don’t really understand a lot of things in my computer engineering class, and my dad has a degree in computer engineering. he said i should try to meet with the professor. i told him that the exam is in the morning, and he was like oh people usually start studying more than a day in advance. like first of all, i did not start studying today. second of all, did he miss the part where i’ve been severely depressed for the last like month to the point where im going to have to take incompletes in all (except maybe one) of my classes??
#im really not ready for this exam because it's on the three modules that i have not done the assignments for#my professor said i can take an incomplete to finish those assignments but i should take the exam tomorrow#i know that it's impossible for me to fail this class even if i get a zero on the exam and those 3 missing assignments#but i was getting a very high A for the entire semester so that would suck#anyways im just really upset about what my dad said about me not starting studying early enough#i think he just assumed there was more time before the exam based on how little i knew.#like i have actually done a good bit of school work the last few days which is a huge improvement from the previous several weeks#my parents don't know about me being suicidal but they know that im really depressed#he probably wasn't thinking when he said that but it still hurts#the last exam i took i only answered one question because i couldn't think about anything other than hurting myself#idk what im doing#im so pathetic#this is ridiculous#am i just faking it? i got a 90 (well above the mean) on an exam from the same day as the exam i just mentioned#i have barely been able to get myself to do anything in weeks because i just have no energy and my thoughts and movements are slower#and because whenever i would try to think or focus my thoughts would drift and i would end up thinking about killing myself#and imagining killing myself all these different ways. i still am having these thoughts almost constantly so it's hard#i just want to kill myself. it's practically all i can think about.#so i would say im doing pretty well considering all of that#tw: suicide mention

My grandma reached out about hanging out with me n my cousin tomorrow, & since this week's fall break I actually Can for once. But also how last minute it was kind of annoys me hfkshfjd like I agreed to it but I'm like. Man now I have to restructure my plan for how I was gonna do all this. Augh.
I also remembered just a bit ago that I Do have therapy tomorrow lol. But that should only require pushing the family thing back a little. But it does mean more things I'm doing tomorrow. Augh.
#speculation nation#part of why i agreed to it is bc i need more driving practice. and this is the cousin who's been helping me with that.#So! i'll get Possibly around 2 hours of driving practice tomorrow. which im hoping will help kill my driving anxiety.#which oh yeah thats why im a little annoyed at how last minute it is. it's an Hour Drive There. hour back. thats 2 hours just with travel.#add in hanging out and possibly cleaning later in the day... ugh.#but this is probably the most reasonable time i Could do this for like another month at Least.#bc after this week im gonna be back in the thick of the semester. and it will Not treat me kindly.#so i am doing my due diligence... being a good grandkid... etc etc...#........... not looking forward to driving that much. but Exposure Fucking Therapy bitch.#only way driving's gonna be less scary is if i drive more. thats it. i just need to improve my comfort.#im a perfectly fine driver im just Anxious. so. practice!!!!!!! (ugh)#and somehow it's almost 1 am. ugh!!!!!

Staring at the screen repeating I have to take this class. I have to pass this class. I have to take and pass this class. Like a mantra
#I do t want to do this stupid assignment. I have sat down like 4 different times on different days and can’t make myself do it. but it’s#one of 2 maybe three major assignments so if I don’t do it I will almost assuredly fail or if I not just barley pass#it doesn’t help that this professor has graded literally nothing this semester despite having given the most assignments so i literally dont#know if I can afford to not do this. and not all of the assignments are up yet so I can’t even guess based on how well I think I did/need to#do for future ones. so basically I have to do this and I don’t want tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo#I’m bad at memorizing!! and I don’t like on purpose performing. it was bad enough being me how the fuck do you mimic someone else’s movement#I talk with my freaking hands and that’s like. I have to move my hands in specific ways ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh#it’s too fucking early in the semester for a project that makes me want to kill dude. save this shit for november.#I don’t understand how or why this teacher is confused with her high drop rate. if I didn’t need the credit I’d have dropped this class alre#I should’ve taken a fuckin. online public speaking class if I’m being so fr. that would’ve been so much easier this shit blows.#comms class from hell#prsnl
