,

Rest.

How r u my love?

I’ve got wet hair…

Just showered… very early shower but I thought I’d wash my hair…

I’m still hot after a shower and I tried to shower with cool water…

Just lying on my bed with a fan, but a towel over my pillow to collect the wet hair…

Ooh… how do you feel?

Mmmmmm… 80% relieved… but it’s not over yet…

Mmmm… what are u waiting for?

It’s the PIZZA that’s left! 🍕

U finished the lasagne?

I did… although… I’m mildly regretting it… because I still HAVE TIME to make amends but I was also just so sick of it I was like, “argh! Just submit it!!!” To myself but now I’m overthinking like oh shit — maybe I could’ve refined it even more…

But… u were ready to submit.

Sigh. If it gets sent back with changes to fix I’ll still be working on it in December. That’s all I’m bracing myself for. That I’ll fix it up in December if it doesn’t pass with first submission.

U’ll be fine.

Yeah… sigh… fingers crossed 🤞💕

What’s ur plans for tomorrow?

I’m thinking of changing the bathroom curtain. I might finally get that done.

Bathroom curtain?

Yes I ordered a replacement one months ago. I haven’t even opened the parcel. And tomorrow I’m gonna get a ladder and change it. Then I’ll prepare the old curtain for the rubbish tip. I might go to the rubbish tip on Saturday.

And also donate some clothes to the charities…

Oh… u are in home decluttering mode 👷‍♀️

Yes… well… while I wait for the final loose ends of this course…

I really want to enjoy that Stray Kids concert on Sunday night. Their encore.

It’s not a new concert?

No it’s just a replay of the one from October. I bought the tickets already I might as well watch it.

Oh I see… 🥰💕

I think… it’s really until the shadow phase of Mercury Retrograde passes that I’ll feel that sense of liberation. Whether I pass or fail…

LOL ur still worried about failing?!

There is a pessimistic side of me that is like… I’m not going to believe I’ve passed until I really SEE that I’ve passed…

And even then I’m thinking, how long do I keep the files on my computer for before I do a clean wipe? Maybe 3 months? Maybe I’ll clear up those files NEXT Mercury Retrograde…

What about emails?

Oh yes… I should definitely start cleaning up those… I might do that next week.

I think right now my priority is the new bathroom curtain… and then I also want to replace other curtains. There’s a whole list of rooms in this house that need new curtains!

I’ll wait for ur updates about that love…

Yeah… sigh…

Should I go to the acquaintances Christmas party?

No…

Lol…

Okay just be polite and go for an hour…

Yeah… I’ll go during daylight. Since the sun sets later now…

Daylight?!

The party starts at 4 pm? Ish?

So maybe I’ll go between 4:30 ~ 7:00 pm?

I don’t know…

R u still mad at ur group mates?

Not mad… everyone is busy… I’m bracing myself for late night last minute things to fix up after my work shift… I’m bracing myself for the most horrible jet-lagged feeling on Saturday morning.

But the BLESSING is that I don’t have work on Saturday and I’m not saying yes to extra shifts. I will need Saturday to recover from the shit show that will be Black Friday — the convergence of both work and academic stress all reaching their final peak of worst day ever in 2025

Really? Worst day ever? Not Boxing Day?

Darling… I won’t have assignments on Boxing Day. So yes… Black Friday is about to be the WORST day.

If I can get thru this Black Friday I can get thru Boxing Day.

Ur so strong 😍

Not really… 😅😅😅

I bet ur group members secretly admire and respect u…

I don’t!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I think they think I’m a BITCH!!!

Lol… ur my bitch… 😘❤️

I don’t think they will think that of u…

Well who cares. I just want to pass.

Lol…

I don’t feel anything else about anything…

U’ve gone mind blank…

A little bit…

Why don’t u watch a show or something to relax?

Yeah… maybe… but…

But what?

It’s the energies

I don’t want to go into La La Land and take this all for granted.

I’m trying to sit with these energies. The teacher will have to mark our work. Will the teacher think I’m a dumbass or that I have passed?

Isn’t there a marking criteria sheet for u to check ur progress?

Yes…

And…?

I was able to tick it off… but… I’m still worried!

Okay so these are just imaginary fears now.

The marking can be sort of vague. It really depends.

Oh…

We’re not out of the woods yet…

Right…

Should we write a song about it?

Taylor already did?

True but… another song about it?!

If u want 🤣

Lol nevermind…

I want u to go to the party and relax a little but I don’t want u to dress too sexy…

Oh… pfft…….

Let me think… what can I wear… 🤔…

💡 okay I got it.

What is it?

It’s an old dress but it is red so it’s festive enough. And it covers my cleavage. It doesn’t reveal anything. It’s nice enough for a party with acquaintances.

Okay…

So ur going to the party?

Yes… sigh…

Why?

Because… they’re nice people... they didn’t do anything to me?! They invited me?! I don’t have work… so I don’t really have an excuse to not go…

Oh I see… 👀

Why don’t YOU come JOIN ME at these PARTIES as my PLUS ONE?!?!

Lol… I want to!!! It’s not like I don’t want to! 😣😣😣

U should write a song about it.

Lol what is the song?

I don’t know but the title is “Plus One”

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

😘😘😘😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
