But there is no choice except to go forward. In the midst of thesis writing. Truly a travail (trial, work, but also labour of love maybe idk) as it is my first encounter head on with academia, I have more of a vocational background.
I also started doing the MA after a decade-ish working so it's gratifying in a sense but oh so much self motivation is required. In terms of advice, hang out with the professors and take advantage of their office hours when you can.

like i know college is supposed to be hard but my goodness this is a bit bonkers. i was explaining to my friend how much i have to do before the end of the semeste, and she said “why would you put yourself through that?” but like…what else am i supposed to do? i don’t know another way! if my professor says write a paper for next week, im writing the paper🤷🏾♀️it’s not my choice to write the paper but it is my choice to do well in school. and everything else that’s piled on me is my choice too. two jobs because school is expensive and rent is expensive and groceries are expensive. and any side project/relevant experience i can get my hands on bc i feel so underprepare. and despite allllll that…i still feel so behind. i feel like no matter what or how much i do, im not doing enough or im not doing the right thing. and i’m just exhausted

it's totally cool to age and society still isn't equipped to deal with that.

Sometimes you try your best and everything seems to hit the fan no matter how much you try, so you take that raincheck and take yourself out for a day.

This is what I call it hahahah made by mums everywhere but the greased up version is sold along stalls in Mumbai. Two regular slices of white bread, buttered, and the middle filling is cream cheese with red onions, coriander/cilantro, tomatoes and some minced chillis. All veggies chopped mini cube size so they blend with the cheese. Toasted crispy.
