hey, jsyk, you're not lazy. you're a hard worker. you just need the right tools. yours might be bent, they might be too cheap to function properly, they might hurt to use, you might get mocked for using them your own way. you're not any lesser for lagging behind. you just need to learn to use your tools differently, or get new ones altogether. but as long as you're pushing yourself further ever so slightly, you're doing great. you 100% deserve to build a better future for yourself. you will get it.

So I learned about self-comment on Skype and I had to do this and share this on here. Just pretend that they sent me messages when I'm off duty as a Guardian.

(Not a singing post) If there's one thing I learned from going from having a decent but not exceptional soprano range to being able to sing from sopranino to bass it's that actually if you want to improve, you have to try a little harder than your best. You have to choose songs with a few notes completely out of your range and fail. But eventually, you'll be able to just barely stretch your voice enough to hit it! (And then do it again and again.) But you can't do this all the time, because if you do, you'll damage your voice and have pain, strain, and cracking.

So you have to try better than your best to fail enough to succeed, but you also need to give yourself enough low-effort breaks (sometimes days or weeks if you really pushed yourself to exceptional lengths) to avoid hurting yourself. If you try really hard and then find yourself in a slump for a while, don't worry, this is how humans are meant to work. It means that you just pulled something off that was hard enough to make you improve. Listen to your body/mind and take the break. Enjoy it. It's an achievement!

Tidak cukup hanya dengan kekuatan saja untuk maju terus ke depan. Melainkan, kamu pun perlu berdamai dengan diri sendiri atas kejadian-kejadian yang selalu menghantui di sepanjang perjalanan hidupmu. Serta menerimanya bukan lagi sebagai penghalang, tetapi menjadikannya kekuatan untuk terus berjuang dalam menghadapi setiap tantangan.

If you're looking for odd recipes, I have one that I have become addicted to. You need mayonnaise, minced garlic, and romano/mozzarella/any white Italian cheese. Grab a container, and put in equal parts cheese and mayonnaise. Preferably 2-4 cups each. Stir roughly with a butterknife. Then, put in a spoonful or two of minced garlic. Keep stirring. Then, put it on either toast or put it in a grilled cheese sandwich. My warning is that I have noticed it doesn't usually refrigerate well.

I'll have to try that. Thanks, friend!
