how to embrace being alone⋆.ೃ࿔*:･✍🏽🎀

learning to be alone is such a crucial thing to learn at all times during your life, but especially during your youth. and something to understand is that sometimes, protecting your peace comes at the cost of being alone but being alone is peaceful! and not as bad as you might think that it is.

being alone offers an opportunity for self discovery and growth and rest and relaxation and reflection and the list goes ON. being able to enjoy your own company is a SUPER power bcuz it genuinely nourishes you so much.

ENJOYING UR OWN COMPANY ;

you dont have to be codependent on someone else to make yourself happy or to make yourself feel good. what fulfills you and nourishes you isnt the relationships that u have with others. although that is an amazing and fulfilling thing, the most fulfilling thing is learning yourself. being alone REPLENISHES you, its like, hydration for the soul.

dont wait on someone else to do something that you wanna do!! if u dont have anyone to go with, just go on your own. you dont have to wait on others to be happy…💬🎀

PRACTICE BEING ALONE ;

go on solo dates, practice planning to do something fun and just doing it by yourself. once you start doing things alone and you see how nice it feels, you'll want to do it more bcuz its so easy to enjoy your own company, you just have to get over your fear of judgement or of being alone and learn to enjoy and embrace it.

♡ read a book

♡ have a journalling session

♡ schedule appointments for urself

♡ go on a long drive

SOME BENEFITS OF ENJOYING UR OWN COMPANY ;

♡ u can be urself without filter

♡ less distractions and u give urself time to ponder and look internally

♡ ur in control of ur space and time

♡ u can be creative and imaginative without reference

♡ its peaceful

BEING UR OWN BESTFRIEND ;

treat yourself how you'd treat someone that you valued a lot. be compassionate and understanding and respectful. dont talk badly about yourself and dont be mean to/punish yourself bcuz u wouldn't do that to someone that u loved and cherished…💬🎀

dont abandon yourself in times where life can become stressful. focus on being present and dont forget your worth. your self worth and value doesn’t come from how useful you are to others, your valuable simply because you are you. a human being who is deserving of love. your worth doesnt come from how productive you are or what you’ve achieved, instead your worth is already done and your valuable because of your existence. 

COPING WITHOUT FRIENDS ;

everything is temporary and meaningful relationships will always find their way to you. just understand that some ppl are here temporarily and some ppl are here for a lifetime but only you are here for all of it which is why its important to be alone and be comfy with that.

not everyone is gonna like you or wanna be your friend and thats okay. it has nothing to do with you and is almost always simply because of different personalities and its not personal

brush off rejections bcuz rejection is just redirection. when you dont take everything personally you'll notice how much happier you'll be overall.

know that the meaningful relationships and connections that u crave will come!! no one is here to be alone forever so you'll meet the people who pour into you and you'll meet ppl that u can pour into and you'll be okay!!

overall, enjoying your own company does wonders for your mental and physical health and its a useful skill to learn in general because it brings so much peace from being able to sit with your thoughts…💬🎀

20 question to ask yourself to find your sun

inspired from heya by ive the members represent the tigers who want to eat the sun !

the myth

(the story is so long I cut it out btw)

There is an old Korean legend of a tiger, fierce and restless, who climbed mountains in pursuit of the sun . Some say he wanted to devour it, to claim its light for himself. Others say he was drawn to its warmth, its brilliance, its quiet power. But what the story truly tells us is this:the sun cannot be taken by force. It can only be reached by the one who climbs with a pure heart.In this life, we are all climbing. Each of us faces our own mountains doubt, fear, failure, the weight of the world... And within us, like the tiger, burns a hunger: to find meaning, to become something more, to reach a dream that feels impossibly far.

this story reminds us no matter how high the peak, no matter how long the journey, if your heart is sincere and your vision clear, you will reach your sun.

Inner Longing & direction:

1. What "sun" (goal, activity, feeling) do I find myself staring at longingly, day after day?

2. What pulls me forward, even when I can't fully explain why?

3. If I felt free to chase anything without fear of failure, what would it be?

4. What activities make me feel most alive and connected to something bigger than myself?

5. What inner "fire" feels like it's burning within me, waiting to be ignited?

Obstacles & perseverance:

6. What "rivers and forests" (challenges, obstacles) might I face on this journey?

7. What voices might tell me I'm foolish for pursuing this?

8. How can I stay motivated even when the "sun" seems too far away?

9. What does perseverance mean to me in this context?

10. What am I willing to sacrifice or endure to get closer to my "sun"?

Meaning & transformation:

11. What does my "sun" represent to me (e.g., enlightenment, creativity, connection, impact)?

12. What kind of person will I become if I pursue this goal with all my heart?

13. How will this journey transform me, regardless of the outcome?

14. What lessons might I learn along the way?

15. Even if I don't reach my "sun," what value will I gain from the pursuit?

Action & clarity:

16. What is one small step I can take today to start moving towards my "sun"?

17. Who can I reach out to for support or guidance on this journey?

18. What resources do I need to gather to help me on my path?

19. How can I measure my progress and stay accountable?

20. What does success look like to me, and how will I celebrate it (even the small wins)?

The perfect time doesn't exist, it's now or never ⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪

If you're anything like me you've probably spent weeks, months if not years considering but not doing. The perfect time doesn't exist. Do it now or you never will.

I've seen countless videos on YouTube and TikTok titled things like "how to actually start working out from a retired lazy girl" and "how to actually start eating healthy". Just do it. It really is that simple. Find a gym near you and go. Find a fitness channel on YouTube if you don't feel comfortable going to a gym. Buy a cook book. Google recipes. Do it. Stop waiting and do it.

You could watch a thousand videos about it if you wanted to. You still wouldn't have done it. You'd have wasted hours of your life you could have put towards actually doing it though. Stop watching videos, go do it. Get up and do it.

There is no better time than the present because the present is all we really have. Tomorrow is not promised. Make today worth something.

Made my hair! Love the twists🙇🏾‍♀️

I did half of my sudoku puzzle of the day, mostly binged Lucifer while on Pinterest #pip #andriod, and did nothing much except sit from 3 to 8 pm and do my hair.

I could do a face reveal but I don't know 🫣.

You came to the RIGHT person BABY 👏👏👏. This is gonna sound abit preachy but I can't praise it ENOUGH. I just know you're gorg too angel 😚x, the world just HAS to nerf us for no reason😭.

Here's How I Got Rid of My Skin Bumps in a Month (No Gatekeeping, Just the Real Routine. WITH PROOF!!!)

You're curious or in need? I got you, no fluff, no 10-step K-beauty marketing fantasy or olive young code to share, just what actually worked for my skin. I struggled with tiny, annoying texture and bumps that refused to go away until I got serious about my routine. Here's exactly what I did and why it worked.

My Routine:

Step 1: Cleanser

CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser

This cleanser is packed with salicylic acid (BHA), which gently exfoliates while cleansing. Wash your face with water first, foam a bit in your clean palms, then massage wash into your skin for 2mins. No stripping, not too much drama, as it should. Just gets in there and preps your skin to absorb what’s next.

Step 2: Skin Booster

Cosrx 6 Peptide Skin Booster Serum

I used this right after cleansing to help support my skin barrier and texture. Peptides are like your skin’s support system, they help with firmness, healing and extra absorption of serums after it. I let this dry down before moving to the main event.

Step 3: The Game-Changer

Garnier SkinActive AHA+BHA+Charcoal Anti-Blemish Serum

Listen to me clearly: this serum is the star. AHA exfoliates the surface. BHA goes deeper into the pores. Charcoal detoxes. Niacinamide calms the whole thing down. I started with it every other day (about 4x a week for week one), just to test how my skin would react. No burning, no irritation, I could already feel smoothness beginning to creep in. From week two, I used it daily. By week four? The bumps were GONE, they did not BS with that in the promo.

Optional Add-In:

Cosrx Hyaluronic Acid Serum

I used this only when I felt dry. It’s great, but honestly? The Garnier serum was the heavy-lifter.

Why It Worked (The real science according to my research):

Exfoliation was key. Most textured bumps are clogged pores, dead skin, oil, debris. AHA and BHA exfoliants remove that without over-scrubbing. Although I did use a rough face towel like once a week with the cleanser 🫣.

Consistency did most of the work. This wasn’t a one-and-done miracle. I showed up for my skin and it showed out for me.

Testing slowly helped prevent reactions. I gave my skin time to adjust.

Here's my proof to show I'm NOT making shit up:

Extra Tips I Searched:

Don’t skip moisturizer. Even if you're oily. These ingredients can dry you out.

Use SPF during the day. AHAs and BHAs make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Don’t undo your progress. I used a sunscreen with vitamin C to help brighten at the same time.

Give it 4 weeks minimum. Skin cycles take time. Don't expect overnight results.

This routine isn’t about perfection. It’s about tuning in, being gentle but consistent (tbh I was impatient but I pulled thru it😮‍💨) and letting active ingredients do what they were made to do. The Garnier serum? She’s the girl she thinks she is. Budget-friendly, effective, and no BS. LIKE FOR REAL.

If you're dealing with those stubborn bumps and want a routine that works without overwhelming your life or wallet, try this puhleaseeeeee. Let your skin breathe. Let it glowwwwww!!!!
