Stole this from facebook because it’s so true!

Love is something if you give it away,

You end up having more. 🎶

Last week, I was given the opportunity to join the PSI Heroic Leadership Seminar Batch XL. It's a 7-days stay-in seminar.

It was definitely a great experience. I have learned a lot about myself and accepted myself. I also met a lot of different people from different backgrounds and cultures. It's so amazing how you can learn from people even when you cannot relate to them.

It lifted a heavy burden and made me feel lighter. It has opened my eyes to new opportunities and perspectives in life.

I'm so thankful for everything, especially to my parents who gave me the opportunity to join the seminar.

Learn to say “can you love me a bit harder today? It’s a rough day” and then explain how you want to be loved harder.

Learn to say “I could use some support. Are you able to provide some? This is how you can support me -“

Learn to say “I feel lonely. Are you able to keep me company?”

Learn to say “I’m feeling overwhelmed. Can I talk to you about it?”

Do this instead of dropping hints or expecting someone to be able to read you. What may be obvious to you isn’t necessarily obvious to someone else. You’re often hurting your own feelings by not communicating your needs and just hoping people meet them anyways.

I know this is easier said than done. We often drop hints because we feel ashamed or bad about asking for help. But the truth is, for most of our loved ones, us hinting at things is exhausting. It can also set them up for failure because they don’t know your expectations. Sometimes they miss hints but sometimes they ignore them because it’s more draining when they aren’t asked directly. It’s very likely your loved one would appreciate you being direct.

People often want to support and help you, but a lot of them like to be told how they can do that.

(through gritted teeth) i love being out of my comfort zone it is necessary for my personal development

It matters because I gave it meaning bitch

failing law school doesnt make you brave why come on tumblr and mope about your own poor decisions for pity points? you aren't leaving law school for any other reason than you slacked off and somehow it wasn't your fault bc "law school wasn't you calling" sis its pathetic

I just wanted to address this question after yearss lol

Sis, I wasn’t asking for pity points. I was just sharing my thoughts at that time. And you’re definitely right. I flunked law school because I slacked off. I never said it wasn’t my fault. Girl, I knew I stopped studying and trying that’s why I failed. I actually emphasized that in my post, right?

I posted that because I wanted to share that failing something doesn’t have to be the end of everything. I wanted to share that life is not all pretty, curated and aesthetic posts. A reminder that studyblrs can share the bad things too. The real life shit.

And so what if I failed? What if I’m happy that I failed? So what if I posted about failing? What if I’m proud that I failed? Are you so hurt and insecure by someone who can acknowledge their failures so openly because you can’t? I’m honestly in a better place because I failed law school.

Maybe try to look back and read who sounds more pathetic?

4 years later, I have 3 dogs now! 😅

I really want a small dog!!!!!

But my condo does not allow pets. I never had a dog as well because my dad hates them.

I’m still trying to convince my boyfriend if I can leave the dog at their place since I’m there most of the time. I just want a little ball of sunshine. :(

It has been yearsssss. This shouldn’t be a studyblr anymore but more of a workblr now? 😅 and this is the reality of the desk right now. A glass of coffee that has been on the table for 3 days now. Tissues I haven’t thrown away. Folders I haven’t kept. Messy bags and things everywhere.

Literally still tired of everything though. I feel like shit right now and I even don’t know why when ever I feel like shit, I end up opening tumblr and ranting about it when no one literally cares.

And I will wait for you.

As protests against injustice in legal system, discrimination, police brutality spread through the US, it is necessary to educate yourself about these issues. 

Here are just a few book recommendations (there are so much more out there), include both non-fiction and fiction about racism and challenges that black people face throughout their lifetimes. 

It’s been 8 months since my last post and almost a year since I decided to stop going to law school

And i’m still lost. Slowly trying to stand up and gain my confidence.

5 months later...

Here I am, still lost and tired of this world.

Ask for what you want in life, take risks, don’t be afraid of failure, you will never get what you want if you never try, so just do it.
