Monday evening, while I'm getting myself all set for my first day of class tomorrow, I took a quick pause and thought to myself... It's real... I'm really coming back, am I? Can't believe that I finally made it—with barely a fight. My first year feels like yesterday and now I am entering my third year; one more year to go and there will be a degree under my name. But since I paused a semester, I really need to push myself back into the game; re-developing my productivity habits, re-engage with people I have never seen for quite some time, and realigning my headspace overall as I'm returning in an environment and culture that I haven't been in for a while, especially that things most likely changed drastically since the last time. My past few months, even if I say that it was well and I have been working hard on me, there's still the constant struggle of it all, in which I felt it more last month. Things just keep happening and keeping up feels like a chore....
... and these are my coffee time notes. It can get cozy or crazy over here
