okay I actually really enjoy ap comparative government so far, it’s really interesting! today we talked about recent crises in the united kingdom, iran, and brazil, and applied what we learned to those events. orchestra was also pretty good, and english was a drag. I had a migraine for most of the afternoon, and am getting a late start on my ap stat and ap physics homework aahh :(

have a wonderful day

Just because you take long to finish something doesn’t mean you’re bad at it or you’ll fail the course. The more mistakes you make now the better you will do on your exam. Making mistakes sucks but see them as steps towards success. 

You’ve got this.

It’s been so long since I've built up the courage to read a book again for my own enjoyment. I decided to finally read again today considering my brain has been extremely foggy plus the weather has been dreadful to say the least, I just said: “fuck it, why not?”. I find that Stephen King’s haunting and chilling stories tend to relax me in a strange way.

Book: The Bazaar of Bad Dreams - Stephen King

i don’t know, sometimes i just burst into tears and cry for an hour, then i feel much better

practice, practice, practice

if you’re bad at a subject that you aren’t a fan of, please keep practicing. do the math exercise even if you don’t like it. write something down, even if you do not know where to start. read the book, even if you absolutely hate reading.

i used to despise mathematics. mainly because i did not understand anything, which resulted in me only putting in minimal effort into my math work, hence the consistent “F” on my report card. but when i started asking for help, started forcing myself to do the exercise even when i didn’t want to do it, i realised that math gradually became easier.

you won’t get better overnight. no one does. and i can’t promise that you’ll get better in a week, or a month, but i can assure you, with consistent practice, and as long as you are willing to ask for help, your work will come to fruition.

now, i love math. or the parts that i understand, at least.
