Well gl

[mild compass]

Someone here is sus

[tawdry star]

Idk who needs this: #semi-colon message

[gleaming sable]

I'm tryna focus to study but my brain doesnt want to

i've never felt this weird b4

[spark sonnet]

i get the feeling

i have a few remedies

[gleaming sable]

List them

I beg

[spark sonnet]

change of scenery - this can be a different studying location or just going somewhere else for a while, preferably by yourself like a walk or standing/sitting outside

swings are even better

swings are a repetitive motion and relax your brain in a way that you can think way more clearly

try refreshing yourself in other ways , such as a reset day

my definition of a reset day is like taking a nice shower and getting freshened up

changing the bedsheets and giving the room lots of air

and just focusing on myself in terms of food and entertainment, like reading a book with a nice beverage

it sounds strange but

you'll understand when you do it

my reset days often fall on fridays

i hope this helps somehow

also, white noise while studying helps

ambience

something repetitive

binaural beats seem to be a bit popular

@gleaming sable

i have a link to some cool ambience that you can alter yourself

[gleaming sable]

omg ty

I think I’m gonna have my reset day on Saturday

Finish off all the work for Saturday on Friday

And just sleep all day and then freshen up everything

@spark sonnet omg I just remembered

While I was studying for my mocks

I was listening to hogwarts ambience

Ty for reminding!

[spark sonnet]

you're welcome :)

take good care of yourself, listen to your brain - you only get one

[viscid gull]

unless u undergo a transplant

....

[spark sonnet]

transplant is more for physical maladies

mental maladies not so much

but touche

realistically only one 🤣

[viscid gull]

just imagine thinking from a diff person's mind

[viscid gull]

everyone has angels on their shoulder,~~ lowkey Im kinda scared from you~~

[spark sonnet]

why owo

[spark sonnet]

ikr lol i wish i knew more about the topic myself but i genuinely do not know how a brain transplant works considering that every single person's brain is made up of different wrinkles in different areas, and quite possibly brand new synapses linked to different memories

ohhhhh you're referencing my status lmao

[viscid gull]

idk much either, just random 2am thoughts

[viscid gull]

yeah lol

[spark sonnet]

it's a song

from 2006 i think?

by billy talent uwu

https://open.spotify.com/track/6M2EVaf2a9qhnY04CVvO95?si=36d5d33043ec4868

give it a try it's classic emo lmao

[viscid gull]

nah, ramadan bro, p.s i dont usually listen to songs

[spark sonnet]

i mean

it aint gonna kill you if you listened to a song in ramadan but aight

[viscid gull]

• u literally mean ur username

[spark sonnet]

lol

trying out a song is fine imo

valuing music over religion is smth else

but you do you man its cool

[viscid gull]

w h a -

[spark sonnet]

im saying

listening to a song in ramadan is fine

but like

putting music over religion is not

idk how to explain it more than that lol

[viscid gull]

its not, but lets not go deeper into the topic

[spark sonnet]

yeah u could say that

like

[viscid gull]

yeah agree

[spark sonnet]

listening to music all day

but refusing to listen to quran

or make duaa etc etc

[viscid gull]

what is wrong with ur usernames GUYS

[spark sonnet]

i believe its fine to listen to music during ramadan as long as its not promoting anything haram, especially within you, however i do think you should try your best to replace it with quran

i personally cant study without music but i try to listen to quran if i can

in the end god knows your true intentions in your heart

[viscid gull]

yeah, trying is better than nothin, i respect that

[spark sonnet]

not at all

[viscid gull]

u can do in different times

[spark sonnet]

the quran isnt there just to teach you

its sound alone is soothing

thats whats so beautiful about it

its circumstantial

[viscid gull]

u both are right, it sure is soothing but definitely when its being recited, attention should be given

[spark sonnet]

i think its fine for me to study while listening to it, i can tap in and out of focus and i have beautiful recitation accompanying me

yeah

there should be a balance

like

yes you should dedicate part of your time to ACTUALLY listening especially during ramadan

but for those like me who are studying basically all the time

then the least i could do is listen to recitation while studying

you know?

[viscid gull]

yeah yeah, dedicating 5 mins in a day to just know the meaning, what ur hearing will be more effective

[spark sonnet]

yeah exactly

[viscid gull]

no offense but ur usernames really are very scary

basically, i did read a bit of tafseer and all, so i kinda read the details of hellfire, and it is actually scary and terrifying

i would actually like to discuss but exams soon ... so i recommend u going through a bit briefly and at least understand what it actually is

what

sorry, i didnt ask, ur a muslim right?

oh

like did u change by yourself, or like family stuff?

oh

r u currently following any other religion?

still, i loved the way u commented bout this

can i send u a request?

u seem like a nice person

i love ur this quality

i see

hm hm

[spark sonnet]

i got rejected to kings college

https://tenor.com/view/drunk-spinning-bathroom-drunk-passed-out-bathroom-gif-13430971

this feels awful

[spark sonnet]

i mean i got all As in my AS

[gleaming sable]

oh ok scout

[gleaming sable]

:(

[dusk thorn]

I mean I got 4 other acceptances

I feel way better now it just sucks tbh

But apparently kings is so competitive that it usually doesn't accept people with only AS marks

Now that's hot

Sorry im not trying to shit on your words of comfort

They mean a lot to me

Thank you for taking the time to tell me this ❤️

Being a professor sounds nice

I was kind of hoping I got Kings bc my parents wanted me to study in London but my first choice is Lancaster actually

Kings too pricey anyway lmao

Yeah they're still super expensive:///

I'm hoping to maybe get some sort of scholarship but it won't make much of a difference

Doing a gap year tho most likely so thats cool

Nice join the club

Yeah true

Im doing a gap year for multiple reasons

Hmm let me list a few

1. I don't want to pay over 20k pounds just to have hybrid or online classes. I miss out on the social and academic experiences of uni, so I want a gap year to be on the safe side

2. High-school in the pandemic really wore me to the bone and my brain is in shambles

3. School in general prevented me from doing the things I love and so I never really got a nice exciting school life, so I want to do all those things I've wanted to do during the gap year

4. Reduces financial strain on my father by a lot

5. Generally want a break from studying, I want a taste of the adult life while still not fully immersed yk?

Lmao sorry that was so long

Fanks

Nice

I wanna work part time in a lab or maybe as a lab technician assistant at a school

I know right

Im tired of ot

It

I also want to start selling my art and ngl I want to work on znotes a lot more as a content dev

Lol mood

Oh wow that's so cool

I do.. prose poetry i guess?

Yeah I love really metaphorical and surreal descriptions

Oh gorgeous

I can only write in English rip

Mm I haven't written anything recent in a really long time

I have this one essay I wrote in 9th grade that was one of my best descriptive essays yet

No idea where it went

Yeah it was pretty imk

Imo*

Uhh what else

HHAHAHAGAGAA

I can't rn im so tired

I have an excerpt I wrote for my friend based off a picture

I wrote it i think 2 or 3 years ago?

Awwwww

I think that's sweet

My friend sent me the picture and asked me to come up with something, so I did

I can send it rn but it's rather old and I don't think it reflects my current talent, but I'm still proud of it

Also maybe we should not talk in this channel

Or mods will whoop our asses

[proven pond]

This cant be true

Its definitely not true

How is my anxiety and stress at 29

Its 10 top

Whatev

[mild compass]

Y?

yems

nitro expires on the 24th rip

[indigo glade]

I wouldnt say fake, more like inaccurate to some degree

Maybe it assumes that everyone reaching out to the site has anxiety and stress issues so it pumps the nos up

It may be a small inaccuracy or a clever marketing and demand creator for their supply

[olive vortex]

Yeah

A lot more inaccurate

no body language

nothing

[spark sonnet]

its similar to that of a screening test

a screening test gives you an idea of what issues you may have

of course there are tests far more detailed than this one

the more detailed they are, the more accurate the result, but nevertheless they are screening tests

[kindred stone]

It just gives an idea

[spark sonnet]

^ ye lol

[kindred stone]

Ah

[spark sonnet]

screening tests shouldnt be ignored either

they can prove to be useful and can help you figure out what problems you may have

[kindred stone]

Like for example

I haven’t recuperated fully with my depression

[ivory nest]

people, i need a bit of help. my school is lying to us, claiming that students aren't allowed to submit assignments or projects as one of their pieces for school-assessed grades (even though the pdf from CIE states otherwise). i don't plan on submitting assignments or projects, but there are other kids who might.
on top of that, i highly doubt that they'll let me submit a home-invigilated set of past papers even though i cannot cheat on them. i guess i understand where this is coming from (students cheated in the mocks), but it's really easy to tell when a person cheats on their exam, so they can just tell the cheaters that they aren't allowed to submit the papers they cheated on, right? they want us to leave the house and go to school during these frightening COVID times (that too, in india. the city where i live is prolly the worst-hit city here). i'm so scared, and extremely angry at my school. the teachers are being extremely petty
can someone give me advice on what to do? has anyone been in a similar situation before?

wdym? did y'all just not sit the exams or something

goddamn

[unreal oak]

How are schools even allowed to be open?

I thought most states made schools close at this point

[mild compass]

Pretty sure it's online

Can't be in person not at this point in time

No students would go anyway

[unreal oak]

Their parents wouldn't let most importantly

[mild compass]

Yeah

Right

330K plus cases

[unreal oak]

And schools in our part of the world only care about that 😂 fuck the kids

[mild compass]

Sad

Lol

[ivory nest]

my school isn't legally registered as a school. they call themselves a "LeArNiNg CeNtRe", so they can still take exams.

we have a meeting tomorrow. hopefully the parents put up a good fight, because the teachers don't give two shits about their students' opinions.

[unreal oak]

Don't worry I'm sure the parents will

are you trying to kill me and my fam with covid is a very good argument

[ivory nest]

thank you

[mild compass]

Actually you can threaten to complain to the authorities

Nahi its illegal to keep schools open rn

But hm maybe they won't but surely someone higher up can do something

yea

sad

[tribal sandal]

I did mine in the Feb/March series, but my school has cancelled the exams for this upcoming series

You should probably petition for it

ICSE kids were spreading a lotta insta posts, signing petitions and getting kids from other boards to support them as well

This works

But petitioning might be a really helpful thing, @mild compass

[ivory nest]

yes, that makes sense. but if i do that, then i'd have to give my AS levels in either oct/nov 2021 or feb/march 2022. that would really mess up my prep for A-levels and my college apps. so this is the only shot i have

[tribal sandal]

Dude, just give it your best then. It's really unfair that you have to do this and we'll all be rooting for you

[ivory nest]

thank you :’)

[spark sonnet]

highkey sad that im graduating and didnt get to spend time w/ my junior friends

didnt get to do all the crazy stuff i wanted to do in senior year

feelsbadman.jpeg

[mild compass]

Ye I feel you

It sucks

But at least we can look forward to university

[spark sonnet]

thats true

i just really wanted to have a fun senior year

[mild compass]

Yeah :/

[spark sonnet]

and i wanted to let my junior friends have some fun

bc they'd be the ones having the worst time of their lives going into AS

and i wanted to use my senior privileges to give them a blast

n i wanted to go out and have pizza nights

i was supposed to work at the student life organisation at my school

as head of the social department

we had so many ideas

and its just hitting me now about how sad it is

we had the dream team at the organisation

my best friend was head of all affairs

my other best friend was head of academics

other friends were in high positions too

it was gonna be such a good year and all of it went down the drain

[mild compass]

Damn ye

That sounds like so much fun

Im sorry it didn't go down the way you had wished 😔

It really was a mess of an year

Look on the bright side and be proud of yourself and your friends for getting through this challenging year

[spark sonnet]

</3

its aight ig

nthn i can do to change it

[mild compass]

Ye

[wintry rampart]

i honestly can't lead 2 projects in one time.

i'm already leading "well" in one project by procrastination

and i can't let my groupmates down, as i, as a leader would be the sole responsibility of their failures if i were to mess up, especially towards doing the tasks.

i've already blamed myself enough times and nearly turned a late submission for a project 35% of my grades

and i can't let my other leading group down.

i might as well pass the leadership to one of my groupmates.

and tell my prof that a double leadership is already taking a toll on my mental health

i've already turned down one leadership opportunity cause i can't just lead 3 projects in one term

I have to create some podcast with my groupmates, with a "teaser" that is an irrelevant collage about what we'll discuss about

it's gonna be due in 1 month

and I'm leading another, where I basically create and investigate a situation that may be improved using information systems using interviews and describing it like an A Level Business essay

10-15 minutes

it's actually 15-30 minutes

the fact that i can't let my group mates down

it's gonna be due on may 28 anyways

when i have other projects to finish, namely, a programming project using java, which i expect would take really long to finish, even if i am partnered.

this is basically the "irrelevant part" of the podcast project.

they're mature enough to pull the slack.

they ask me and i guide them.

[short shoal]

hi ik this is random but, we all want what we can't get in all aspects of life, if what youre talking about was actually happening trust me you'd be feeling a lot normal than you're imagining rn, to be content we have to acknowledge that and appreciate what we're getting in a moment of time

you seem like a hell of a nice person, uni has a shit ton for you, the majority of studies show that people enjoy their 20s the most in life so hey, just maybe the best is yet to come

[spark sonnet]

aww, this is very sweet of you! thank you. i was feeling glum over what could have been, you know? but either way i'll be sure to enjoy my uni years to the max. thank you so much for your kind words

my bff never wished me on my birthday. it's been over a week and im still hoping she remembers or something. i know this is really stupid, but it just sucks how we'd video call all the time back in 9th and now we just.. never really talk.

[gleaming sable]

thats kinda

nice

its a cute video but putting that emote with it makes it feel condescending

just my thoughts

ya igwym but if imma be real with you chief it makes things feel real condescending 😅 thought i should point it out to u

https://tenor.com/view/quby-like-thumbs-up-agree-yes-gif-16452398

[dusk thorn]

Not exactly a vent but I didn't want to vomit this out in chat either

But ya man is going to be cramming a year's worth of A2 biology into a week

Lord help me

[kindred stone]

You do it

[viscid gull]

ill be doing half of it in a day (;-;), so ur good than me to go

[azure gorge]

my childhood was built on toy story, madagascar, cars, lion king, finding nemo (not finidng dory thats plebian) and soon enough theyll be known as old movies and they would be forgotten.... i might actually just do an entire weekend watching these movies, i cant remember cars too well it hurts my soul.

[rough holly]

the orginal cars movie was elite

[wintry rampart]

man i hate my family

my mother screams at my face just cause i have a headache

telling me to "sleep early liek at around 10 pm" when all my friends sleep at midnight

all they teach me are "boomer knowledge", stating that sleeping at 12 am is the equivalent of no sleep

and let "natural air" flow into my room, when covid is fucking airborne

[lament cloud]

My parents are the same

[wintry rampart]

this is why i avoid telling my mother about sicknesses

[lament cloud]

YoU sHoUlD sLeEp EaRly AnD wAkE uP eArLy

[wintry rampart]

so that i can't get yelled at and blamed for this nonsense

[lament cloud]

I'm not allowed to chat with my friends although they're up super late

[wintry rampart]

all these years made me develop a mindset, that is, abusive parents have no chance of redemption and deserve to suffer

sharing a jail cell with the insane

if they want to harm children, then let them be harmed by the greater evil that is hell and the mad

and this is how i manifest my trauma, being a person who keeps everything to himself rather than to his peers, fearing for negative reactions that can damage my morale even further

and believing that i was meant to make the world a better place

[wintry rampart]

the way my mother says this is "sleep early because you sleep at midnight."

and that "your immune system could end up killing you if you forget about it"

only boomers believe in this nonsense

i believe in science

science and psychology as a way to make my life better, and maybe everyone else's.

[unreal oak]

may I ask where you learned that COVID was airborne

As per the WHO, COVID is spread by droplets and smaller aerosols

and keeping your window open does not significantly increase your risk of covid

in fact, fresh air circulating through your room could possibly help reduce your risk of catching covid if someone else who is infected is in the room as well

[wintry rampart]

my mother told me that stuff.

[unreal oak]

your mother told you that COVID was airborne?

[wintry rampart]

yeah.

my grandmother had covid, even if she never went out

she luckily survived.

and from that, my mother keeps telling me"keep tiring yourself out and you'll catch corona. are you believing that staying home prevents covid? not! it is airborne."

[unreal oak]

okay if your mother is both saying that staying home wont prevent covid and to keep your windows open she might have some issues

but note that as per current evidence, almost all COVID transmission is from being in close proximity to another infected person

so yes, staying at home does massively reduce your chances of getting it

and as for keeping your windows open, the risks are very low unless someone literally comes up to your window and coughs in it - covid particles do not seem to travel far enough for it to be a problem

[wintry rampart]

i live in a condominium fyi

[unreal oak]

then depending on which window, the risk could be even lower

if you're on a high floor and the window dosent face other flats, there's almost no risk at all

[wintry rampart]

it's just that i do not know what's real or not. my grandmother keeps telling me "human experience is more accurate than science"

when at times, science turns to be a savior

[unreal oak]

science is a collection of a large number of human experiences with logic applied on top

hence in almost all cases science is superior

[wintry rampart]

my mother prolly thinks that science is just a bunch of mumbo jumbo

and thinks that whatever she says is right

[unreal oak]

yeah that's an issue

by the way, I dont mean to attack you or anything - i just dont want misinformation about COVID to be spread in the server

hope im not coming off as aggressive

[wintry rampart]

you're not at all aggressive. you're doing the right thing.

[unreal oak]

thank you

[wintry rampart]

i just want to know what's right from wrong

and the true purpose of this rant is how i was made to listen to "word of mouth" rather than what the government tells us

from my own mother.

[unreal oak]

ahhh yeah i understand you

[wide star]

People are screaming

I don't like screaming

That's all I has to say

[mild compass]

why are they screaming

[wide star]

I really don't know anymore

All I know is that people are screaming and it's hurting my ears

[mild compass]

oh

can you tell them to stop screaming?

[wide star]

It's fine she's stopped

Hopefully she's too tired to argue more

[spark sonnet]

i hope you're okay

[wide star]

Dw I'm okay

[wise sun]

I feel so lethargic for the past few days and i have barely done shit lol

Man working and researching uni gets me stressed for no god damn reason

Thanks

Idk how people are so set pn what they wanna do in life

[spark sonnet]

they really arent trust me

[cosmic ginkgo]

^^^ me being in uni doesn't make me much closer to being set on what to do in life

I'm basically 1/3 of my way into my degree and still clueless (and I have spent many a day being anxious about it) so just remember it is normal, it's not easy

Maths & physics

Basically lets me be indecisive for longer

[north karma]

Could be more indecisive if u jus took every degree 😎

[tawdry star]

Nobody is, it's just more of appearances tbh

[delicate bramble]

Heyy! not sure am i suppose to ask question here, but I'll leave it here. So basically how will IGCSE give predicted marks??

and pls tag me 🙂

hello, check the #🌍│updates channel :) it has a lot of news regarding predicted marks and so on

@cosmic ginkgo @tawdry star @mild compass @spark sonnet thanks for everything!

[spark sonnet]

no worries man ❤️

[tawdry star]

Anytime my dude

[wintry rampart]

i don't know how dumb my mother is...

i explained to her that forehead thermometers tend to be inaccurate due to the fact that my room's temperature may affect it

she just said "why am i 36.6 degrees when you are 38.1 degrees?" when literally I am around normal temperature and believes that i am still sick

I have a sense that she's a typical boomer, refusing to believe in the facts and fabricate her facts to worsen me

i'm forced to take 2-4 pills of chinese medication per meal for nothing, other than to satisfy her worries

that i may be sick

only for me to worry that i may end up overdosing

with her stupidity being the cause of it

[vale wolf]

@wintry rampart I mean 38.1 degree is pretty high. She may be overdoing it with the pills but she’s still a mother who’s worried about a child. And wants to keep them safely.

[wintry rampart]

when i informed her about the cons of a forehead thermometer, she just ignored it and believed that it was correct

[vale wolf]

Well that’s pretty strange to do

@wintry rampart maybe try to talk to her again and try to convince her not to take 4 pills per meal? And trust me you won’t overdose with 4 pills. I have seen patience who take 7 pills per meal

And they are all different kind of pills

[wintry rampart]

the medicine's name is "Lian Hua Qing Wen"

some sort of chinese medicine used to treat pneumonia

[vale wolf]

Have you been using the medicine before?

[wintry rampart]

yes

every time my mom notices me having a mild fever, from around 37.4 degrees and above

[vale wolf]

Did it help?

[wintry rampart]

only a good night's sleep saved me

[vale wolf]

Hmm. Well it’s important to take the rest you need and deserve. And drink a lot of water.

[wintry rampart]

aight. I will drink more water.

and get the 9 hours of sleep i deserve

[vale wolf]

Ye ye :))

@wintry rampart keep your body warm as well. And your feet warm if they are cold.

[delicate bramble]

ohhh alright, thx mate 🙂

[spark sonnet]

[gray violet]

Venting? That's sus

Jk jk

[spark sonnet]

[gray violet]

Ok

[gray violet]

Lmao

[lament cloud]

Lmao

[gleaming sable]

We’re all going to die and statistically you will probably never accomplish anything and be on your deathbed wishing you asked that person out, spent more time with your parents, quit your job and did what you really wanted to do. Instead you decided to “play it safe” and regretted everything. When you’re in your last few days, you will think “I’ll just do it differently next time” but there is no next time, you will line the rest of whatever awaits us after death regretting that you didn’t take those risks.

[north karma]

Sounds like someone watched too much exurb1a

Who’s exurb1a

I am a professional procrastinator. No I'm not venting or ranting, I'm just letting my fellow procrastinators know how important time is, and that scrolling through memes or watching "one" more yt video, or "one more" game of Valorant is going to haunt you during the coming exam days. I personally have done all of the above and more. The exams begin on May 3rd and although I've done okay preparation. Imo I'm still stuck on a few topics and chapters. Some of my concepts aren't as clear as I want them to be and overall I am dead inside. Yes I'm dead inside. I don't know what's going to happen and believe me, if I could get just 1 week, or even a day extra. I'd take it. Time is extremely valuable, more valuable than bitcoin, gold, whatever. Time is the essence which, if used wisely can greatly differ how your future may be. For me I don't know anymore. I'm uncertain, conflicted, confused maybe even nervous to the point I clench my fists every now and then, cursing my past self for wasting time. Wasted time is never found. And the pain of regret is real, it's more painful than waking up early and studying your ass off. But I know, that what's done, is done. I can't change the past, no one can. Don't put anything off for tomorrow. Never do that.

For now, I have an extremely tight schedule. And it's incredibly difficult to follow along. So take it from me. Don't waste time, please don't.

[wintry rampart]

again, here we go with the 38.1 degree reaction nonsense

my mother thinks that i sleep at midnight when i sleep at 11:30

too dumb enough to realize that she intentionally advanced the clock by 30 minutes or something

or thinks that i am still awake when my eyes are closed

this nonsense is going for 3 days now

[vale wolf]

Well idk what crazy thoughts your mother has but please keep trying to convince her

[solemn hedge]

11:30 is very close to midnight

[wintry rampart]

she thinks that i should get 12 hours of sleep, like a freaking toddler does

[solemn hedge]

I feel this is cap, you're not telling us the full story

[wintry rampart]

when i'm clearly a 19 year old

[vale wolf]

12 hours is way too much. Maximum is 9 hours

[wintry rampart]

check the earlier rants i made

cause she and my 11 year old brother get 10-11 hours of sleep a day

[spark sonnet]

his ma is wack, i believe him 100%

shes really boomer-esque

[wintry rampart]

while i get 8-9 hours of sleep a day

[solemn hedge]

ight then I guess he's right

[wintry rampart]

she has threatened to send me to an icu

thinking that i am covid positive

[solemn hedge]

LMFAOOO

[spark sonnet]

bruh why,,,

i mean

[vale wolf]

Wtf

[wintry rampart]

this will surely affect my mental health, as i may end up growing as a hypochondriac

[spark sonnet]

you can do a pcr test if you need to?

if shes that bloody worried then just get a pcr test done

[vale wolf]

Well you don’t have any other symptoms like coughing or feeling really weak?

[solemn hedge]

Man your momma sounds east Asian ngl

[wintry rampart]

no symptoms at all

[solemn hedge]

or south east asian

[wintry rampart]

typical 50 year old chinese mother

[solemn hedge]

knew it

And 50?

Dang

[wintry rampart]

exactly

[spark sonnet]

sorry welpo my man

[solemn hedge]

[spark sonnet]

[solemn hedge]

🤡

Dispose off the thermometer

[spark sonnet]

id break it on jah

ok maybe dont break it lol

but ik how you feel welpo

[solemn hedge]

Reduce the thermometer to atoms

[spark sonnet]

my mum is such a boomer when it comes to health sometimes

[solemn hedge]

Hah my mom's a doc

[vale wolf]

His mom needs to get her research checked ngl

[spark sonnet]

she has no idea how the sleep cycle works and keeps trying to convince me i need 10 hours of sleep

[spark sonnet]

[solemn hedge]

ikr

[vale wolf]

Bless her

[solemn hedge]

❤️

[vale wolf]

[solemn hedge]

Ima study ciao

I will update on my results

[vale wolf]

Enjoy bye

[spark sonnet]

@solemn hedge gl

feel free to join the vc studying party

[vale wolf]

[wintry rampart]

i now compulsively try to check my temperature using that forehead thermometer as a result of this nonsens, often getting my mother to yell at my ass for overusing the thermometer

[spark sonnet]

i mean a thermometer is meant to be used

also

dont worry that much

[wintry rampart]

and i'm going to end up taking the lian hua medicine again, till it runs out and she blames me for it

[spark sonnet]

you can feel a fever coming on usually

and dont take so much medicine

it'll ruin your organs man

[vale wolf]

At fever all you need is rest and water

[wintry rampart]

and she'll blame me for "playing too much" when my kidneys have stones

[vale wolf]

Bruh

[spark sonnet]

yeah seriously dont take so much

[wintry rampart]

she often calls me "stupid" and "crazy"

for what i am doing

[vale wolf]

Yeah idk what your mom is thinking 💀

[wintry rampart]

she mostly ignores me whenever i try to talk to her, leading me into becoming that silent type of guy who barely talks

[spark sonnet]

that sucks man im sorry

my mum's the same

[vale wolf]

Sorry to hear that

[wintry rampart]

she cares about my brother more than me

[spark sonnet]

really makes ur self confidence take a hit

she cares about your brother more probably bc your brother doesnt stand up to her

she likes the compliance

:/

[wintry rampart]

i plan on gettting that confidence back once i go to work.

[spark sonnet]

im sure you will man. godspeed.

[vale wolf]

👍👍👍👍

[wintry rampart]

but it's 3 more years till this happens

[vale wolf]

Be patient you got this

[fleet apex]

@spark sonnet ur name is awsome

[spark sonnet]

cheers man you're awesome-r

[fleet apex]

thanks bruh

Satan be like

so angry cuz he can't make us sin

gonna become close to God now

[spark sonnet]

based 💯

[fleet apex]

indeed brother

[spark sonnet]

my mother is irritating

she's borderline annoyed bc my eid outfit isnt overly glamorous or formal

and shes complaining that its from the mens section but always lectures me about being modest

miss girl what do you want from me

[tawdry star]

Bruhhhhhh

Ugh

[spark sonnet]

ikr lol

[tawdry star]

Don't argue, cuz it only delays things + might heat up. Just don't mind her at all is an option or just yk actually wear what she suggest however distasteful it might be

[spark sonnet]

yeah i didnt argue

i just said oh well i like it and its new and it looks good

[tawdry star]

Mhmm

That's good

[spark sonnet]

didnt bother trying to bring up her hypocrisy :/

[tawdry star]

Yeah ik

It's ridiculously difficult to convince hypocrites of their hypocrisy ughh

Good on you

[spark sonnet]

truee

thank you <3

[lament cloud]

So true

[tawdry star]

The easiest and simultaneously difficult thing to do with Asian moms is actually forget what they say. That is just not giving a fuck about their opinion and carrying on. Sometimes it just might not be possible but when it is, do so, at least under the pretence of agreement because it is far more viable than letting trauma pile up

[spark sonnet]

period

[tawdry star]

It is, dare I say it, an art.

[spark sonnet]

the art of BS

[woven lark]

woah

mums tho😔

[spark sonnet]

lol

[fleet apex]

sup

[patent vortex]

:/

[ivory nest]

i have no plans of studying in india for undergrad. im fortunate enough to have the opportunity to study abroad, and im extremely grateful for this opportunity. but i always feel these pangs of guilt every time i discuss this stuff with my parents because they need to spend their money on me. i've already told them i'll get a part-time job so that i'm less of a burden. but i know that this guilt will remain with me forever... i'll repay them in the future somehow :/

[whole pike]

good luck to everyone giving their exams!
remember to breathe, you got this <33

[spark sonnet]

i understand how you feel. i think what will help you is considering the money put into studying abroad as an investment. as long as you work hard and get the degree you want, the money isn't going to waste. make your loved ones proud and use that money as an investment in a better, happier future :)

[ivory nest]

this helped. thank you :)

[spark sonnet]

least i could do <3

[cedar eagle]

I have my paper 1 exam today plz pray for me

[spring mountain]

i just slammed my head so hard against the wall, everyone heard it lol and now it doesnt hurt that much but IDEK IF ITS SERIOUS?

[tawdry star]

Yo call a doctor

Go get it checked-

[spark sonnet]

you would be surprised at how much the head can handle, but please don't do it again. you could end up getting a concussion or a fracture. if you feel anything strange within the next few days, please consult a doctor

[olive vortex]

AnywYs

[kindred stone]

Yeah

So I don’t really know if I should take a sm break

[dusk thorn]

Group therapy

[olive vortex]

hate therapy

[kindred stone]

Lezz goo

[dusk thorn]

To be blunt with you, you might as well just do it. It depends on what you want to fix

I think you need to take a good long hard look at yourself, metaphorically

[kindred stone]

It’s difficult

[dusk thorn]

And you need to emphasise to yourself what you wanna change

I'm aware of that

But it's doable

[kindred stone]

I mean they can defo live without me

But a change gap will make it harder

If there is any

And since it’s 12th

I’ll be studying a lot

[dusk thorn]

May I ask why you want to take a SM break?

[kindred stone]

Once holidays are over

[dusk thorn]

Also, real friends stick out till after the grind is over

[kindred stone]

I don’t really want to

[dusk thorn]

Just saying^

[kindred stone]

Well one of them well uhh

I’ll brb azan

[dusk thorn]

No worries

If anything i might read these in the morning @kindred stone

If you don't want to air your business out, feel free to dm me

Not that it's bad to vent here (if anything it's pretty good because you're talking to an unbiased audience)

But yeah

[kindred stone]

Im gunna sleep actually

Ill just tell them im taking time off

[dusk thorn]

Yeah definitely do that. Real friends will look forward to your return

[olive vortex]

yeah.

[kindred stone]

I wanna see

[dusk thorn]

Don't be afraid to break off rusty chains, they're not very useful at carrying things

[kindred stone]

One of them we had a dispute

[olive vortex]

Poetic

[dusk thorn]

Shakspir

[kindred stone]

So i have no clue

[short shoal]

[spring mountain]

[spark sonnet]

[cedar eagle]

I took my paper 1 yesterday omg did anyone else have their exam

[spark sonnet]

i had p4 bio if that makes you feel less alone?

[short shoal]

lmfao i slept like an actual polar bear wtfff

[spark sonnet]

ugh luckyyyy

[short shoal]

i feel like a goddamn sloth

[hasty sparrow]

i got sick just as i was about to do paper 4 0580 and paper 4 chemistry
i was told i could sit for the exams in oct/nov
but my guardians thought it would be better to continue
so i sat there in a clinic doing my math exam, throwing up after every two pages.
i felt better when it came to the chemistry exam but
im sure i did absolutely shit for the math exam, and it doesn't help that it wasn't easy either

i feel as though i've killed any chance of getting an A* in math, and that every ounce of hardwork i put in and all the good grades ive gotten before now amount to absolutely nothing

i don't know what to do with myself anymore

[spark sonnet]

@hasty sparrow hey, it's gonna be okay. do you have the chance to resit in o/n or m/j next year?

[hasty sparrow]

i don't know, i really don't

[spark sonnet]

im pretty sure you'll be able to

[hasty sparrow]

i suppose it fizzles down to seeing what my final grade is and what my guardians say, right

[spark sonnet]

plus, A* isnt that imp in math to unis

sort of yes

like

worst comes to worst a resit is an option

and you've already done the exam once, yk?

a B is good enough in math for most unis - A levels are what u should be concerned about

[hasty sparrow]

even still, it just feels wrong of me to do all this work and not get an A*

[spark sonnet]

i understand

but you were sick

you kinda had no control over it

all thats left is to wait for the result

[hasty sparrow]

yeah i guess so

[mild compass]

sus

[frail cipher]

sussy

[urban blaze]

sus

[boreal roost]

sus

[mild compass]

sus

[hushed bough]

when people ask for help for specific questions

[boreal roost]

OMGG DaBaby!? IS it really you!?! I'll send you my credit card info. YEAH YEAH!

[hushed bough]

can they give a marking scheme

or explain why there is no marking scheme

lmao

they just spam @helpers till death do us part like bruh

[spark sonnet]

ikr lol'

[hushed bough]

I wanna help but I'm worried about giving a wrong ans most of the time , and I'm not going to look up a markscheme when the onus shd be on the person asking for help

aiyiyi

best is when the pic is

rotated to the right

so u gotta tilt your head to see it right

[spark sonnet]

u should tell them straight up

bruhhh

annoying asses

i just tell them to send a proper picture and send me a ms

[hushed bough]

ahaha it's like a habit in this channels, it shd be a pinned comment or sth

usually I won't be online by the time they reply

so eh

[spark sonnet]

and if they dont they aint gettin help

their problem then

[hushed bough]

yessiree

[spark sonnet]

its etiquette at this point

[hushed bough]

ahaha but yeah I stop at the no mark scheme, no reply method HAHA

[spark sonnet]

💀

[hushed bough]

I guess you still ask for it

I suppose I will too if I have patience

🐔

[south dome]

My school decided they’d tell us out mock results AFTER examinations are you flippin kidding me??? I can’t even know what I messed up in to improve.

[spark sonnet]

crackheads

wtf

[short shoal]

It happened to me too, they just ignored the mocks we gave, but try to see if you can find the paper that you gave, maybe it was all from one past paper, and correct it yourself to find mistakes

[spark sonnet]

yep

[short shoal]

For us they were online so I knew all the questions and checked them after

[spark sonnet]

and just keep practicing @south dome

[south dome]

Thanks dudes.

[short shoal]

you're very welcome<3

[spark sonnet]

[tribal sparrow]

There's this guy

In this server I'm in

Who's not only a tory, a Trump supporter, but thinks he's going to be Prime Minister of the UK when he's not even from Europe

And he's a dick

Like

Deadass sexist, rude, said shit abt my friends

And imagine I get fucking muted because I argued with him for calling my friend rude for "not allowing him to dm"

Which somehow ended in him saying

"I don't talk to feminists"

Like fuck is that supposed to mean? You blatantly admitting to being sexist?

I'm actually so fucking angry right now

[unreal oak]

if you dont mind me asking, what did he say?

[tribal sparrow]

"Canadians are usually warm and friendly unlike you"

Then he tried saying it was a joke

He has sum god complex

"If i wanted to get in Oxford that bad, i would have applied for Math. 100 per cent acceptance rate for me in any college"

[unreal oak]

fair enough, that sounds dickish

[tribal sparrow]

He called himself a fucking Roman God

[unreal oak]

bruh 😂

[tribal sparrow]

And claims that he's Christian

Like ?????

God I hate it here

[unreal oak]

i was more curious about the sexist shit he said really

[hushed bough]

deluded asf

[tribal sparrow]

He was making fun of feminists

[unreal oak]

last i checked you needed to be British by birth to be PM?

[tribal sparrow]

And immediately assumed that my friend was a woman

He said "they talked like a woman"

[tribal sparrow]

Yeah exactly

[tawdry star]

wtf

[tribal sparrow]

He thinks a family in the UK can adopt him and he can change his name to sum posh tory shit

[unreal oak]

it doenst work that way-

[tribal sparrow]

Like Winslade-Chamberlain or whatever

[tawdry star]

Okay the delusional dude on the internet found today goes to-

Alexu

[tribal sparrow]

He's so delusional

I can't

[tawdry star]

Just yk avoid talking/interacting anywhere near this dude. I meet these types everyday because my country is known to manufacture them. Just stay tf away

[tribal sparrow]

Yeah he's Indian

[tawdry star]

There's no point in conversation

Knew it

But yeah screw it, just yk isolate thyself from this "roman god"

[tribal sparrow]

Yeah I'll try to but God

[tawdry star]

God is dead

[tribal sparrow]

He's in Oxbridge Applicants

Which is a server I'm fuckin active in

[tawdry star]

[wicked turret]

Peeps, my country is going through the civil war and the internet keeps cutting off.

And I have exams next week

[spark sonnet]

is your school unaware of the situation??

[wicked turret]

From the bright side, the grades wouldn't matter if I die from either a gunfire or an explosion

[spark sonnet]

hopefully not man

[wicked turret]

They are

[unreal oak]

which country?

[wicked turret]

Myanmar

[spark sonnet]

i dont think you should be concerned about grades at all rn

i mean if youre able to study why not

but your life > grades

by a lot

[wicked turret]

Ik...from bright side My AS level grades would be ignored if I got good grades for A level

So I'm currently focusing on covering all the basics

[spark sonnet]

yeah do that man

and above all take care of yourself

i cant imagine how you must feel rn,

[wicked turret]

Thanks

[spark sonnet]

least i could do, im sorry.

[wicked turret]

Hey...im just venting here...and u just listened

It's appreciated

[spark sonnet]

i just feel bad on your behalf, i hope your sitch gets better. will be here for you if you ever need to vent more

[wicked turret]

Yeah...I will keep updating here sometimes

This evening there was an explosion in my area

Which pushed me to edge

[spark sonnet]

goodness is there no evacuation nothing?

sorry for my ignorance on the matter but that cant be right

[wicked turret]

Idk much about the situation either since I'm trying to ignore it as much as I can

[spark sonnet]

i get you yeah

[wicked turret]

But there is no proper government atm...the junta who seized the power is pulling crackdown on civilians

[spark sonnet]

Thank you very much m8

[spark sonnet]

least i could do, you'll be in my thoughts @wicked turret

[spark sonnet]

im so upset over whats happening in palestine

it actually hurts its so damn painful

i wish people would post about it on social media more

it needs all the media attention it can get

tw gore

||i literally saw photos of a man carrying the body of his daughter's burnt corpse after a medical facility was attacked||

||i saw a boy mopping up literal carnage and blood off the floor, and israeli citizens were signing their names on what looked to be bombs. i saw a girl crying and asking for her father to come home and her other relatives had to fake being on the phone with him and telling her he's coming soon when in reality he was killed||

if this doesnt break your heart all i can say is god help you and i hope he opens your eyes to this horrid reality of genocide

[north karma]

Ive seen it but they jus do it in a bad light

People are jus making jokes about it
