it’s the first official day of freshers week and i’ve got my uni opening ceremony is this morning! yesterday i also took part in my first uni tradition - the Pier Walk, which is where everyone walks down the old pier in their traditional red robes. it took FOREVER (literally stood around waiting for about two and a half hours) before we actually got to the end of the pier because there were so many people, but it was super fun and a great memory that i know i’ll have forever!

Realising a little too late that I should have posted throughout exam season to keep myself accountable... oh well, at least I'm here now! Two exams down, three to go!

Remember what life is all about

I was so concerned with my final year of college, finals, entry exams, that it felt like i was going through life head bowed, just walking on autopilot and staring only at the ground

I need to remember to enjoy life more often

The exams will be there, the time will pass anyway

So i choose to spend my free time remembering that there's life outside of university and the oh-so-important future

Smell the flowers, sit in the sun, go for a walk in the rain, watch children play, dance in your room, feed some ducks or squirrels (do some research about what is ok to feed them beforehand though)

Remember what life is really about

day 1

i don't think I am (or could ever be) the kind of person who takes nice notes or has nice notebooks for each subject. i end up scrawling all over and tearing pages out and stapling them together.

i've been trying to fight the urge to not eat. i've been drinking a lot of coffee. i'm really scared but i think that's a good thing because you're only scared when you give a shit and i want to give a shit.

hi. will it ever end

A sunny workspace this morning. Sitting down to do some editing after an extra long weekend spent visiting a friend who lives at the seaside— chips on the beach, moseying around vintage shops, a half pint and kissing a framed banksy at the pub, the sea was shining turquoise

hi there! i don’t usually ask for any help on social media, but this is really personal and close to my heart case of emergency. unfortunately my brother got diagnosed with Leptospirosis (Weil’s disease) which infected his internal organs. currently he is in critical condition in Singapore’s hospital and he needs a medical treatment and intensive care.

i am asking for a big favor, if you can help in any way possible financially, please donate to this site: https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-a-young-life-from-a-recoverable-condition?qid=6a9ed829fd57abbf0f3c664648da5250

or reblog for more people to see.

thank you so much!
