To live instead of exist
I will 2 years ago

I can’t remember a time in my life where I lived for myself. Actually lived. All this time, it has always been for school and my family. I know the latter is actually a good thing, but sometimes I just feel too close to my family. It’s difficult to explain. It seems all I’ve been living for is school and I’m so sick of it, but I keep telling myself it’ll all be worth it later. But that’s later. It never helps in the now.

I put so much into my family, it’s a routine that takes all of my energy away. I live for them everyday, but at the end of the day, I feel drained of myself. Where did I go? What happened to me today? It’s too late before I realize I could have changed something in my daily plans. Maybe get out a little. Go somewhere with other people outside of my home. But like I said, it’s a cycle. I cannot control it sometimes.

But I need to. I can’t live this life only dedidcated to school and my family. I need to stop settling for everything else and work on myself. To live for myself and not exist for everything else.



drink more water

Water cleans out the system. I just hate having to urinate every three seconds. However, I do feel a lot better. Even when I feel like there’s a fish tank in my stomach sometimes.



Stress less
Go with the flow 2 years ago

My perfectionism and worrywart habits initiate my stress, really. I stress myself. I know I personally create my own stress and I’m willing to stop or at least, alleviate it.

My perfectionism/worrywart habits cause me to stress because ultimately, I am a contol freak. I worry about things beyond my control and I always have to have things done my way because in my mind, that’s the only way I know how outcomes will turn out. It’s depressing.

I’m trying (reluctantly) to not even think about things that I don’t have control over of. Hopefully, this will make me realize that I don’t always have to do everything myself. I have to “go with the flow.”
