i am enjoying the mini thai fermented sausages a lot. they are like prosciutto in a way, but less funky smell and more cost efficient. my new favorite snacks.

overview: i did not go to the convenience store yesterday..... didn't want to get dressed. finally finished and submitted the sea sem essay. 3 more papers to go!!! i will work on the wpe finals tonight. catching up with my journal and planner. and i just noticed how my desk is so.... urbanized.. high density with utilization of vertical space. so silly.

[cabbagemonke]

[cabbagemonke]

i know why i enjoy writing on midori notebooks now... the paper doesn't like my pens but the notebook lays flat.... and it's a lot easier to write that way.

anyways, new daily goal, i will get up, shower and leave my room everyday to at least go to the convenience store. being inside my room all day, for weeks in a row, is not good to my mental health, work efficiency and social integration skills. how much more time would i waste walking like 70 steps there compared to sitting and staring at the screen, my brain being elsewhere.....

This absolutely made my evening! And trying caviar and fancy tinned fish sound so so fun (and the other ones!), I only even had a really cheap caviar and would bet that trying the good one would be such a fun experience AND I keep seeing on Pinterest and sometimes in bigger shops these pretty funky tins with some fishes in the prettiest tins and I just want to take them home and put on a shelf as a decoration bc damn they look incredible sometimes! Wonder if that taste good too... Anyway GOOD LUCK and japanese curry is amazing ~ 🧡

[cabbagemonke]

yippeee!! i am glad you are well! about the cute tinned fish tins, i think fishwife ones do just that!! i hope you will get your hands on them too! for decor! thank you for your kind wishes and i will definitely keep you posted on my journey!!

(your thoughtful reblog with comment also makes me so habby ;w; thank you!!!)

i am yapping about my development of a more secure view of self and my experience on prescription stimulants below. it sounds very self-absorbed. 🙏

i have been reassured by my mother about what i think is my incompetence in living in general. i have always struggled a lot with studying, deadlines and structured environment. i don't have a set routine because i cannot maintain one. anyways, so, my mother said she doesn't think that getting into decent academic institutions again and again throughout my academic years is a fluke, and she thinks i am doing quite alright. i just have to submit the assignments now... and end this chapter once and for all...

other than that, i am not formally diagnosed with adhd but i am currently on ritalin anyways. i think it helps, but it's not magical as i have heard from other people's experiences... i don't dare be honest to my psychiatrist because i cannot afford vyvanse. is it possible to have imposter syndrome about my prescription and suspected diagnosis???

me every single day.

daily cramming log: 20 may 2026

overview: went outside to take some photos with friends at campus and it rained. still updating my professor on the progress and will continue working on papers tonight.

[cabbagemonke]

daily cramming log: 19 may 2026

overview: working on academic paper again today. will try to get at least one done tonight and contact my professors to update them on my progress.

1718: i am still working on the sea seminar papers today. i am really taking it and hoping i will finish it day by day. i completed-ish the introduction for the final paper but not the midterms.... feeling kinda overwhelmed by the information that i have gathered because of how there is a bit too much specific bits of information that i don't know if i should include in my paper. it is supposed to be something argumentative or something with a point, not a research.... maybe i will include some numbers and specifics yeah. also figured out how to use endnote, it makes my life so much easier.

1800: i ate too much and now i feel nauseous.

2232: restarted my poor laptop once because it froze, turned on ac, hopefully it gets better. 3/4 way through the first body paragraph now. there is a light at the end of the tunnel. i need to work faster..... i need to get this done tonight.....
