It's Actually Good I Promise (entry no.2)

 At the moment I am currently "listening" to an online lecture about database management (yes it is as boring as it sounds). What makes the class even more insufferable is that I have it every week at 8:00 am. I'm normally up before that but it's still pain to have to attend and use my brain.

Before I joined the lecture I was listening to Taylor Swift and I instantly know that you're thinking one of two things "OMG I LOVE HER" or "Seriously, why is she everywhere she's so overhyped". I personally fall in the in between category, I think she's a good person but I wouldn't consider her as one of my favorite artists. But while I wouldn't say I love her, I gotta admit I love her lyricism. She's a phenomenal songwriter and captures love and heartbreak so beautifully with a few simple words. A great example is "All Too Well" there's one line that goes "And I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed to" which get's me every time. Another one of my favorites is the haunting yet powerful bridge in "Clean" which says "Ten months sober, I must admit, Just because you're clean don't mean you don't miss it, Ten months older, I won't give in, Now that I'm clean, I'm never gonna risk it"

It's unfortunate that the only songs most people hear from her are her upbeat pop songs like "Shake it off" and "Anti-Hero". Not gonna lie I loathe both of those songs. I understand that they have nice messages too but I can't stand them. However, I recognize that there are some exceptions like "Cruel Summer". I must begrudgingly admit there is nothing quite like screaming that bridge at the top of your lungs in the car. 

I dance precariously on the fine line of to Swift or not to Swift while jamming out to "London Boy" and "Call it what you want". But you will not catch me fighting to the death for Taylor Swift's honor. I enjoy popping my head in every now and then to see what's up but Taylor Swift fans low-key terrify me. 

I didn't even realize but my online lecture is now over which means it is unfortunately now homework time. Thanks for listening to me as I stand on my soapbox on this little corner of the internet. Until next time!

Are you coming or going? (entry no.50)

It's been quite a while since my last blog post. Honestly I've been having too much fun while also stressing out and it's made me a fabulous combination of overstimulated and lazy. Hence why I have not posted an entry in over a month! But I don't want to let anymore time pass, I want to keep documenting my life, my experiences, and thoughts for a long time. My life updates aren't as interesting anymore now that I'm not in school. Well my life is actually super interesting right now but I just don't feel like writing about it, I'd rather live it in the moment.  I've got so many exciting plans for the summer, trips I want to take, people I want to see, hobbies I want to get back into. Like I do every summer, I want to go back to learning the ukulele, I also wanna take time to play some of my favorite video games again. I just find it hard to pursue these things cuz I legitimately cannot sit still, it's awful. I still try to pick up a book every now...

I fall for pretty home and away kits (entry no.25)

 Ayeooo, she's back only 4 days later, please hold your applause until the entry is finished. I'm currently a multi-tasking queen, typing away as I watch England vs Serbia, both team's first match in this year's Euro Cup. So far so good, we're winning one nothing and Southgate created a killer starting line-up not gonna lie. We got Kane, Foden, and Saka up front and Rice, Bellingham, and Trent in midfield... need I say more. Now that I'm writing, I realize that I haven't once mentioned what I thought about the team's new jerseys. I think they are cool, very classic looking but not as cool as the ones they wore during the 2022 World Cup. I loved both of those home and away kits. The bright red away colors and the white and bright blue home jerseys were perfection.  However, Germany's home and away kits this year were my absolute favorites. The white home jerseys with hints of red, yellow, and black look so beautiful, almost like the players are on fir...

Co-workers & Classmates (entry no.47)

 Hello! It's been a minute, I know it always has been but I always feel the need to say that when I start an entry. I'm currently in my 10:00 am Web Technologies class, after today I only have to come two more times and I'll officially be done with this course. The same is true for my other Friday class on Microsoft Power Shell, I'm really nervous about that final exam. If I don's pass it I could very easily fail my class. I have NEVER failed a class, not in middle school, not in high school, not in college, and hopefully I never will. Long hours of studying await me to make the previous statement a reality. But my determination is just as strong as my fear and anxiety. If I want it enough I can have it, April is finally here, (not literally, but I'm trying to make a point). Honestly, it feels surreal how close to the finish line I am, college has taken up two years of my life. I was 19 when I started. On week six of my first semester I started working at my cur...
