It's been over a year of sheltering in place. The one-year anniversary came and went last week without fanfare. A few days ago I was standing in my closet, looking at my neatly pressed work clothes with an odd sense of disconnect. It feels weird to think I used to put these on every morning and rush...
I'm very tired of being quiet when things that are making me uncomfortable are being said. I need to become well-spoken. I can't have the opinions that I do without standing up for myself because almost none of what I think is mainstream or widely accepted. To be okay with being me, I'm realizing th...

I cleaned my room last night. Decluttered, organized, vacuumed, changed the sheets. I've been consistently busy between my jobs, schoolwork, and chores, but fortunately I seem to be keeping up with it all. Still it hasn't left me much time to for activities that aren't in my normal schedule, so when...
(I keep forgetting to post these...) January 19 – Roommate: "Remember when Prometheus brought us fire? I miss Prometheus." Here we are, standing outside in the snow at half past midnight for the biweekly fire alarm. It's comical how little people care about these fire alarms. Besides me and my ro...
"...I know that's a lot to take in," said Kan, after rolling out what felt like a ten-minute explanation, "but this fight is mechanically dense." As they say, every Shiva prog party is a Light Rampant prog party, but we've made slow progress over the past couple weeks. The add phase is still a work ...

Glitch broke up with me. She felt I was backing her into a corner and I felt like she was ignoring me for Jena. As usual, my big mouth got me in trouble and they ended up coming upstairs very angrily to get her stuff and go back to staying with Jena. She screamed at me, which is my biggest trigger, ...
Shit really hit the fan with me and Glitch. She promised that she would come back up here to sleep tonight. It's currently 5am and I've sent her messages asking what's up to get "umm I'm not going to bed yet" because they're fucking hanging out with Jena STILL. They have been already all day. I got...
Today was my father's 59th birthday. In another year he'll be 60. I can't get over how fast everything moves. Everytime I see him there's more white in his hair, or another line that wasn't there before. Time passing is one of the most eerie things. Seeing someone age slowly, and knowing at that pre...
Phew! Finally this week is done. We just had our colloquium (which turned into a consultation) since there were some things that didn't satisfy the panelists. However, when the results were announced, our paper got accepted, but with minor revisions. Hopefully we could get it done and right this tim...
I feel weird. It's our colloquium tomorrow, and I don't feel nervous at all. Is it because I am confident that our study will fail due to lack of related literature? I don't know anymoree. My friend told me that if I'm not nervous, I might not be able to answer at all :')). If I'm really serious abo...
