The Knight - Creachurity Sequel

Actually my girlfriend is wizard president so I can do whatever I want forever

Hey I have good news for everyone.

Cringe culture literally does not exist outside of the internet.

I take my Minecraft backpack to college and I get tons of compliments on it. My boss’s son plays Minecraft and he’s elated to have a “resident Minecraft expert.”

Lots of things that fall under “cringe” are very dear to me and my friends. Good people recognize and celebrate that passion, no matter what it’s for.

What do you think about gap years and do you have any resources related to them? Thanks xx.

I think gap years are a great idea IF you do something that will support your future academic or career goals during the year. I didn’t know many people that took gap years between high school and college, but many people take them between college and graduate school/medical school/etc.

For example, if you’re planning on going to college but want to take a gap year, can you get involved in some sort of academic tutoring, internship, or research experience program? Also make sure you take any required exams i.e. the SAT, ACT, subject tests, AP exams, or GRE if you’re post-college. You could also take some community college or night-school classes to get some requirements out of the way in a more relaxed atmosphere.

If you’re planning on getting a job, what can you do during your gap year to build up your resume? Think volunteering, internships (paid or unpaid), part time work (ideally in your desired field), and any credentials or licenses you might need for your job.

You can also use your gap year to work on your professional skills, make money through side hustles, and consider big life changes like moving out, getting an apartment, etc.

This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t enjoy your gap year! Spend some time recovering from school and rebuild your interests and hobbies. Just don’t get too comfortable that your gap year turns into gap 3-5 years!

Hope this helps!– Mimi

i honestly think the reason the most bitter and disgruntled people make sweet and cutesy art while horror writers tend to be upbeat and chipper people is that in order to write good horror you need a certain amount of healing and emotional growth that allows you to access the theraputic techniques used in horror to stimulate fear and to then turn around and present it to others. and on the flipside, there is nothing more heartbreaking and raw than to make art of the joy you wish you could still feel

my quick tips for working / studying from home

- get dressed and style your hair as if you’re going to school/work - even use the same perfume/ cologne as you normally do  (trick your mind into being motivated)

- plan things out - everything (plan out your week, day, meal, etc. you can make these as specific as you’d like. this will help you stay on top of your work as well as stay healthy, especially if you live alone.)

- make studying/ working the first thing you do each day - best if you can start in the morning (minimize the tendency to procrastinate)

- just start - don’t worry too much about perfecting or finishing anything yet (if you don’t start then there’s nothing for you to perfect or get done. and it will never get done)

- listen to old and simple (aka non-distracting) podcasts, Youtube videos, or café/ chattering white-noise, etc. simply leave them as background noise to create an illusion of being outside your room (bring the presence of people to you. my favorites lately have been slam poems from 2016, Mae Martin’s stages, and Awsten Knight’s crackhead podcasts)

- set timers, for both study sessions and breaks (so that you don’t overwork, burn out, or procrastinate. the Pomodoro technique works great here)

- take advantage of the comfort of your own home (light a candle, have crunchy snacks, play loud music, review notes out loud while pacing around, wrap yourself in a blanket burrito, study on your bed if you can focus there like me, etc. basically anything you can’t do in a classroom, office, or the library)

- if you miss your friends, call/ text/ facetime them, make a study group chat with them, etc. (that is what technology is for)

- choose recreational activities/ self-care for your breaks instead of going on social media (go on walks, make small art, play an instrument, stretch, take a nap, etc. I usually reach for my guitar, brainstorm writing ideas, or sketch very simple line art.)

- if you want to go on social media, do it during meal times - or the 15 minutes after your meals that you can’t work just yet (it also doesn’t make you feel like you’re wasting time)

- study in different rooms for a change of scenery (dining room, living room, the patio, etc. I have an armchair next to the window that I study in whenever I need some sunlight and don’t have to write anything down. however, if you need a designated place to focus on your work, you can also use these alternative spaces as designated “relax” or “creative” place for your breaks)

- use this as an opportunity to take care of yourself (get enough sleep, drink water, exercise, talk to your family, take your meds, be mindful of your mental health, etc.)

Feel free to add your tips. The current situation sure is unpleasant but it is unavoidable. All we can really do now is take care of ourselves, others, and try to make the best out of this.

Good luck to everyone and stay safe! My heart is with you all 💕

i kinda think life is about finding those people you can do anything with. like you want to share your life with them and feel like you could do anything together. anything from lying around in bed binge watching shows to going on an extremely long road trip to calling each other at 11pm to complain about life. pretty sure that’s one of the meanings of life.
