Yesterday I got a call from my roommate while she was at work. She forgot to submit our lease renewal. It will just get handed in late. So it’s going to be another year of being her roommate. I d...

I spent the whole day in bed. I even ate in bed. Nothing nutritious. I am letting myself wallow a bit. I failed at something, I’ll get over it. I could have been more productive today but I could...

I’m usually very decisive which is why I am so tortured by this physics class. Do I stay or do I go? I was confident that I had my mind made up that I would drop this physics class because I coul...

I’m feeling a little stunned at the moment. I decided to not attend class today. I am considering throwing in the towel altogether. It could go either way. My test is on Wednesday, I still have t...

My mind went to a very dark place last night. Toni and I started a series called Your Honor last night. The pilot was just an endless series of unfortunate events for one of the characters and I ...

---

I am trying to be mindful of what is going on in my head. It is all over the place. My emotions are all over the place as well. Actually, it’s more like my emotions are nowhere to be found. My he...

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...

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. ...
