Taken few hours before afternoon exam on 5th May. This meant I've endured 3 papers and left with 1 more paper then semester break.
Thinking of doing part-time while waiting for new semester starts.
Organizational behaviour test been a crazy obstacle and I could only say this to myself, "you can endure this". It is tough but it is definitely worth it.

the smell of freshly baked banana cake and sweet chocolate in the kitchen, iced mocha, uni outfit check and that big spider inside my class 🥵. It was a productive day and finished critical reading assignment of an article (summary, pros, cons and comment). Next week would be another busy session of trying to finish one write-up (it's like 5 pages, font 10, single line spacing ㅠㅠ) , one presentation, case studies also, group meetings.

31.03.2023 I confessed I did something reckless to my health (mentally and physically), need to remind myself and you (my fellow reader who work so hard for themselves) to not let yourself be too exhausted doing your academic. :( I spend from 8 pm till 4 am managing individual paper and groupwork paper, and it wasn't healthy to do so. I skipped my suhoor and the morning, I felt so drained mentally that I wanted to cry but your girl had online presentation in the afternoon 2 pm. It wasn't rewarding feeling. Won't do it again.
After the class, I just laid down in bed and read. The reading calms me down a bit and yay, to slowly reaching my book goal.

Semester break is a bliss 💕 but also made me quite lazy.
29.03.2023 Getting these two books because it has been in my wishlist for some time/months. Also, short date (breaking the fast) with my sweetest date ✨️ Reading too many research paper made my brain miss reading idly, in a relax pace, focusing more on enjoyment. This April till first week of May will be the busiest time ever with group presentations, group work papers, tests, and exam.
It is November. The year on its deathbed. I have outlived my body so many times these months. Like wildflowers in concrete, I am trying to grow between the syllables of my name.
