today was the most exhausting but productive day ever. honestly, it couldn't have gone any other way. I gave a really daunting entrance exam with really difficult math, but a moderate logical reasoning portion. I think the most stressful part was the leading up to it because it was scheduled for late afternoon, so I had a lot of time to worry. on brighter news, I submitted my application to my dream college!!! I thought I'd be really happy and relieved but I'm honestly so stressed and spiraling because I don't think my application was good enough. I hope the worry goes away this is really annoying. I went out for coffee because today my birthday month has started!! I also had an oatmeal cookie. anyway, it was a good day I think, this has just been the most chaotic and stressful week of my life. I hope you had a good day too!

STATESIDE MUSIC VIDEO CAME OUT BEST DAY EVER!!!! Apart from that, I washed my hair so I'm finally lovable and capable of loving again. I also had the nicest cheesy ramen for lunch and a rose and lychee green tea after. I ended up finishing a college essay I've been thinking about for AGES. after that it's one more essay and then exams and then freedom. I'm SO excited. Some family friends came over for dinner and ended up staying really late but I had a good time! I had ice cream and ginger ale thanks to them :) I've recently been really obsessed with games like good coffee great coffee and daily gallery by Google arts and culture. if anyone has any recommendations pls send I will love you forever (I also really love those dress up games so send them over) I hope you had a good day too!

I had an oral exam based on one of my projects today but it was really easy. I feel stupid for being this stressed all for nothing. I got home, watched a bit of gilmore girls and took a nap. that's about it. Overall unproductive but honestly I don't really mind. I hope you had a good day!

Didn't wake up early today so I was really disappointed and ended up wasting most of my morning. However, I was able to complete a term project so I'm happy about that. Onto some better news, I made my first submission to a litmag in 2026!! I have been rejected by them before so I'm a bit apprehensive, but i also have a lot of hope. I ended up editing my author bio a bit as well! I watched the most recently released episode of season 2 of the Percy Jackson show. I have many thoughts, and plan to write a review after watching the full show. I walked 9k steps while listening to music- not a lot but better than nothing in my opinion, and I made hot chocolate for myself. All in all today was a pretty average day, but I'm glad I documented it! I hope you have a good day!

Today wasn't the most productive day, but I think I had a good time for most of it! I submitted a college application that I had been putting off for a while but got an interview location that's quite far away. So me and my parents are likely going to have to take a plane or flight. In other news, I went to a Cafe near my house and had tiramisu and a hot mocha. I saw a boy there wearing a purple sweater and it made me both happy and envious. I really need to start waking up earlier and getting more things done. I hope tomorrow is a better day- I'll try my best to make it one. I hope you had a good day as well!

I had my first final exam today!!! the questions were so vague I genuinely have no idea how it went. after the exam, I went out for coffee and had this really nice chicken quiche!! it was great! tomorrow's my birthday I'm so excited!! I made a blueberry lemon cake to cut with my friends tomorrow. I still need to ice it but maybe I'll do that tomorrow morning. tried to take a nap today but was unsuccessful, which is surprising because I woke up at 5am to study. so excited for tomorrow! I hope you had a great day too ♡

TODAY WAS MY BIRTHDAY I HAD THE BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!! I made a blueberry lemon cake with pink frosting and it was shaped like a fish!! it was so cute and we decorated it with pink sprinkles and gems !!! my friends came over and we had the best time ever!! we talked so much and we played Flip 7 (from smosh) ! I got the nicest Keychain and ceramic cup and painted jar!! I cut an Irish mocha cake at 12am and another chocolate one at night with my family. three cakes all in all- that's a new record! I wore a pastel yellow babydoll dress and felt so lovely and special!!! I hope you had a great day too!

I just gave the Duolingo English Test and it was pretty easy but I think I messed up the final speaking portion. I was constantly stuttering and someone almost walked in. I paused for like 5 seconds as well. I'm so nervous and annoyed because that's the portion that goes to the universities and it's the most important. I swear if I get rejected because something as idiotic as my English skills I'm going to burn the world. anyway, I hope your day was good!!

I GOT A 155 IN MY DUOLINGO ENGLISH TEST!!!! (it's out of 160!) I REALLY CRASHED OUT, HAD 47637 SOB SESSIONS, AND WAS A PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE ASSHOLE TO EVERYONE FOR NOTHING!! LIFE IS GREAT, I HOPE I GET ACCEPTED TO MY DREAM UNIVERSITY AND MY EGO JUST SKYROCKETED I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE AN AMAZING DAY !!! :D

I had my English final today. I genuinly have no idea how it went because everyone was saying different things about the length and difficulty and I was just...there. it wasn't bad but I'm not sure how good it was either. anyhow, I had pasta for lunch,we ordered it from this new place and it was really nice. it was warm and filling and was exactly what I needed. they also gave the pasta, sauce, and chicken in different containers so I felt like a chef mixing everything up! I started watching Abott elementary and I really like it! it's so funny and I'm going to review it properly once I finish it. I'm a bit nervous though because my Disney hotstar subscription is going to end soon and I really want to finish the show. I could pirate it but all the usual sites i use have been taken down or have THE WORST ads. I also made cookies!! honestly I've been a bit out of it the whole day because I got a rejection letter from a university yesterday and it really threw me off. I was expecting an email but I wasn't EXPECTING it (sorry if that makes no sense). it wasn't my top choice and I didn't really want to go but I was still jarred because it's the first rejection I've gotten. still waiting on my dream university though, don't know if this is a soft rejection or the admissions are just taking time. I'm so afraid of my email all the time. I hope you had a good day!!

legitimately the best day ever. I studied NOTHING because I have fifteen days before my next exam so I've been relaxing. I watched so much abott elementary I finished season 1!!!!! I also ate so well! today was an amazing food day Breakfast- cinnamon oatmeal with strawberries Lunch - pasta + lemon iced tea Snack - coffee + a cookie straight from the oven Dinner - chicken and rice + white chocolate in the end also rated this day a 5 because I saw the MOST beautiful girl in the world and it lowkey made my day. I'm talking hazel from bottoms with shorter hair PLEASE tell me you can picture this. also she is in another continent but whatever!!! I hope you had a great day and saw a beautiful person too!!!

I made dark chocolate babka today!!!! the braiding was difficult as usual, but apart from that it was pretty easy! I was really proud of how well the dough rose, and it tasted really good. I'm gonna make french toast out of it for breakfast tomorrow, I'm really looking forward to that! apart from that, I wrote a lot today, and wrapped up a chapter I've been putting off for a while. I'm supposed to be studying but my next exam is really far away so I'm not really worried yet. I also have my first external class tomorrow. they're mainly to give mock tests and revise concepts for an entrance exam, but I'm really nervous. I have a three hour class tomorrow, and I have no idea who's going to be there or what room to go to. I am insanely scared and have been thinking about it the whole day. lastly, I have been an anxious BEAR for the past two months. I haven't heard back from my dream university and I am so so scared. I keep worrying and eating so much it's actually kind of funny. and I don't know whether my parents are oblivious or just rage baiting me because they ask me why I'm stressed every single day. why do you think? 😭 sorry for the rant!! I hope you have/had an amazing day!!!

Had my first class today!! it was three hours of psychology and honestly I was so nervous for nothing. the teacher was really sweet and there were only four of us. everyone was really quiet and nice it was really great. somebody asked me for directions as well! I tried to help her the best I could but honestly it was my first day so I may have worsened the situation further... also, i got salted caramel ice cream afterwards!! it was really cold and sweet!! I took the biggest nap ever after getting home and then washed my hair and had coffee. I also trimmed my bangs today! I watched she's the man while having dinner, which was noodles and chicken! I changed my phone wallpaper and theme as well! overall, not a very productive day, but I had a lot of fun!! I hope you have a great day too!!

I had the LONGEST classes ever today I'm so tired the schedule is shit. 1.5 hours of English, Mass comm., and history each, back to back holy shit. and it wasn't like school where I could talk to my friends in between (or during) class, everything was so serious and rigorous I wanted to die. I came home and watched like four episodes of abott elementary I love it so much and Janine and gregory are finally dating!! i wish I wasn't so emotionally and mentally drained after studying and class because I really want to read and get on with my writing, but I just end up on YouTube or pinterest or daydreaming/wallowing ughjjjnrn it was an alright day though, I'm just really tired as I'm writing this!! I hope you have a great day !!!

I HAD MY LAST FINAL TODAY!!!! FREEDOM (not really I still have entrance tests) The paper was way harder than the exams in school and the sample papers so I'm actually not sure how it went, but hey, at least it's over... However, RIGHT AFTER the paper I had to catch a train to travel for a college interview. it was the most uncomfortable five hours of my life because I was still in my uniform. I was so stressed and tired the whole time even though the interview is tomorrow and I just prepared and listened to the Carrie and lowell album (thank God for sufjan stevens) the hotel was really really nice though and I got to have this insanely refreshing lime and mint iced tea. I'm so exhausted but one more day and then a break!!! for a while. and it's back to the grind. this sounds dramatic but it was an average day, just emotionally exhausting! I hope you had a great day too!!

AWESOME DAY!!!! pretty stressful at first before the interview but then!!! HAPPINESS I had the most amazing breakfast at the hotel because it was a buffet!! I haven't eaten so much in a MINUTE. Everything in the room was on my plate and man I was so happy about it! anyway the interview was fine, it was really short and the interviewers were so impassive and uninterested I don't know what to think about that. but I think I answered their questions alright, so, nothing I can do about that now! after the interview though, we went out to a mall and ate burgers, fries and ice cream!! it was amazing. then we went back by train and it was so much more fun because I wasn't stressed at all!! I also got ive cream on the train!! so I had ice cream twice wow!! I love ice cream so much!! I'm gonna miss the hotel though, it was so grand and fancy :( ALSO GUESS WHOS BACK ON INSTAGRAM AND EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA TO EXIST EVER I had a pretty awesome but tiring day and I'm so excited to bedrot tomorrow!!!! I hope you had a great day tooo!!!

I met up with my friends today!!! we ate Korean food and since there were four of us, we got the private room thing!!! we had gimbap, ramen and rice cakes, and dumplings!! we also had chocolate mochi after!! I had a sprite as well, and it had been a while because we don't really keep soda at home. it was so fun even though I had to leave early. I miss talking to people my age (and people i like) because I've been feeling so isolated during exams. we talked so much and I laughed so hard I love my friends!!! I washed my hair today and I feel so clean and optimistic. it's insane what greasy hair does to my mood. the rest of the day was pretty mundane, I watched a lot of Abbott elementary (I'm on season 5!!), panicked about college decisions, and doomscrolled quite a bit!! I have class tomorrow and I'm not mentally ready to get back to the grind rn :( but it's okay, I'll probably get boba after!! anyway, I hope you had a great day!!
