Mathlete in Current Events

Small Win in Current Events
I managed to win and get my head in the right space that I wanted. I spent the whole evening deep-diving the material that we have learned from my physics class. I accept that I am slow. I need t...
My Mindful Depression in Current Events
I am in the bargaining stage of grief. When my mind shifts from one paradigm to another it grieves the old belief structures. I have to go through all of the stages of grief. Metacognition is not...
Oy Boy in Current Events
I gave myself a one day breather from the academic pressure. I kept it domestic and optimized the kitchen and made some meal prep staples. My mood was pretty decent until just a few moments ago. ...
Eye Of The Tiger in Current Events

Relief(ish) in Current Events
I feel a little better about my physics class now that I remember about Khan academy. It’s a great resource. I stumbled upon it on accident while looking for a simple definition and it brought me...
Good Grief in Current Events
Yesterday, I had a pretty decent day at work. I don’t usually have bad days but yesterday was fun. I was paired with Adam, he and I have the biggest personalities on the team and we were matching...
Give In, Give Up, Or Give It All You Got in Current Events
I knew today that I was going to struggle in my physics class. I didn’t struggle too hard but I was very intimidated. I missed the last class which was our second class where we started the unit....
Risings in Current Events
‘Tis the season for seasonal depression. It isn’t soul-crushing but it makes it hard to be motivated. Last night, I had a movie night with my niece and nephew. Then my sister and I watched Wild ...
Boring in Current Events
Why does my subconscious torture me? I had one of the worst dreams of my life. I love waking up disturbed and haunted, not! I dreamt that I was coming to terms with the loss of both of my sisters...
Ethos in Current Events
I did not sleep well again last night. I have not had a good night’s sleep in weeks. Not since I quit coffee but I don’t think that this is because of me quitting caffeine. My body is expressing ...
First Day Was Not The Moment in Current Events
I had my first physics class yesterday and don’t have a good feeling about it. My first impression of my teacher is not so good. He doesn’t seem to be very structured. Perhaps I was spoiled by my...
Not Over Things in Current Events
I’ve had a lot of rest the last two days. I feel like I have been in procrastination mode without anything to be procrastinating from. What am I avoiding? I committed to doing nothing for a chang...
Financial Abuse the Sequel in Current Events
I finally got around to going over my budget and finances. In November Toni, my roommate, arbitrarily decided that she will take on rent in full and I will cover the cost of everything else. I on...
Bizzare Observations in Current Events
I’m not too keen on polarizing with strangers on the internet when it comes to my philosophies. It doesn’t go anywhere because we’re all just serving our egos. It’s easy to commit to our own narc...
In This Shirt in Current Events
I’m a little amused that I created a bit of a frantic morning for my roommate. On top of all the ways she is dependent on me, she uses me as her alarm clock. She can’t figure out how to use her p...
Miss Thing [Quick Rant] in Current Events
I almost chose violence with my roommate. Ok, not actually. It took a conscious effort to not pick her up off the counter and put her in a playpen. I was making curries for dinner, it was less t...
Why I Always Whining? in Current Events
I somehow missed the nice words of encouragement from my teacher on Teams. She said I should be proud of myself. She appreciated my dedication to studying and my amazing summary cards and how I w...
Mad Dream in Current Events
I can be a little out of touch at times. After I wrote my bitter entry the other day I remembered how heavy my depression can be. Rare as it is, it is suffering. Then I have a humbling epiphany a...
Sucking at Life is Selfish in Current Events
Anger is not an easy one to process for me. I held it in all day yesterday. I can feel it bubbling up to the surface again today. There was no real trigger. I am angry with myself and I am very c...
Derp in Current Events
I can finally lay around and eat breads and desserts and get all fat and sassy without feeling like I should be studying because my class is over. Then on the sixth, I start physics. I am already...
Final in Current Events
I’m over 24hrs on my fast. I suspect that I am in ketosis because my appetite is gone. I will see how long I can keep this up today. If I can last until tomorrow that would be great. I do have my...
