i think that i’d actually kinda like being a servant girl for the targaryens, i mean i can clean and keep my mouth shut, plus i can watch aemond do…… things…. with the other handmaidens through holes in the wall LOL can you tell i’m a bit of a voyeur 🫠

Oh!!

Fuck it, if this gets 100 notes, I'm doing a fic with your guys' most insane requests

I know you finished your finals recently do you have any advice for someone who is starting uni? I’m really overwhelmed with having to move out of home and starting university with no friends

HI HELLO GUESS WHO'S BACK 🫶🏻

I'm honestly so sorry for taking so long to get to your ask. Life was hectic these past few weeks, but I'm here to answer your question!!!

I also moved away from home when uni started - albeit I still see my parents pretty often. My best piece of advice is to honestly raw dog it without any expectations: on neither yourself, or the types of people you'll meet in university.

I DON'T MEAN TO SOUND LIKE A DEBBY DOWNER BUT PLS KEEP READING

To me, university was (and still is) like a bigger scale highschool simulation. People don't really mature past where you left them in their final year of highschool, but there's a sense of acceptance coming from both your fellow students and teachers (in everyone doing their own thing without much judgement, I mean).

I can't speak for everyone when I say this, but it's much less daunting than what one might expect. The scenarios you make up right now are waaay more dramatic than what the final result will be like, trust me!

I encourage you to really make time in your schedule to socialize. Create something akin to a "friend group", and, if you're single and looking for someone to start a relationship with, just know that the most "husband material" guys are taken by the end of their 1st/2d year of uni LMAO

STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM FRAT PARTIES. They're insanely overrated and you'll never find your life partner there.

When it comes to studying, never believe what the others will tell you. I heard all too often the phrases "I didn’t start studying yet!", "X/Y/Z is too difficult! I'll just skip the chapter and hope for the best", "I think today's lecture was too difficult. I'll totally drop out of this class."

None of your course mates will reveal how much effort they put into each class. All of them will tell you they haven't started studying, or that they'll start studying 2 weeks before your final exams etc.

DON'T BELIEVE THEM. They're all studying and putting in effort. Competition in university is cut-throat.

Or, at least, that's how it is in med school.

The academic workload that you'll have to go through is INSANE compared to highschool. But make a list going into each week, detailing the things you want to achieve/cross off it, and you'll be fine.

Individual work is key in university. No professors will baby any of you, and some might even drop materials for your finals a day before your exams take place.

Attitude wise, they're far less strict than their highschool counterparts.

Plan in advance, stay calm and, if you get overwhelmed, it's okay to take a break.

That's pretty much everything that I can think of from the top of my head. If I remember anything else, I'll write it down in the comments!!

Good luck starting university! You're going to nail living alone and making new friends. Remember that everyone is just as confused and eager to prove themselves as you ❤️ Don't put too much pressure on yourself and have fun!

So…..no rush…,just curious when we’ll get more harshest winter. I miss your writing! Hope you’re doing well!

"THE HARSHEST WINTERS" FANS STILL ALIVE AND SPOTTED IN THE WILD????

😭😭😭

I don't know who you are due to the anonymous function of Tumblr, but you have my whole heart.

That being said... and this time for real...

THW IS RETURNING THIS SUMMER!

I'm so, so sorry for literally dying and deserting Tumblr for a whole year. University kicked my ass and I had a lot to deal with.

Alas!! The sweet release of summer gives me more than enough time to finally finish the series.

I might also rewrite part 5, due to it not being up to par with my writing now. But 1st and foremost, I'm coming out with part 6!
