wait wait wait the pizza in your pfp has CORN ON IT?? That’s way more of a crime than pineapple on pizza ever was :o

...

Wat??

Corn is the BEST thing to put on a pizza?? Aside from mozzarella, it's a very necessary ingredient!! What are you talking about?? It- it's.. it's vital!!?

So, uh.. no, I didn't do a crime and there's no need for corncern...

Mid-Sem update:

Media, Culture & Society ✅️

done. i am finally done with exams.

Now, I'll be taking a break. I'll be offline for a few days — just need to breathe, take care of my life a little, and figure out some stuff for this summer. Vacation officially starts 1st may. I'll see you guys then.

also. story time.

I got back home after the exam — and literally 15 minutes later — had to run back to college for my Botany practical exams. They didn’t notify us, didn’t inform us, just scheduled it like it was no big deal. We showed up, and they handed us the materials right then and there and told us to study on the spot before taking the exam.

and guess what? I did. and not to brag, but… i aced it. 😂

Hi, it's future me.

so... I kind of forgot to post this. I did write it — it just somehow ended up in my drafts, and then I didn’t open tumblr for like… a week. And now I’m posting it late. Disappointed.
