LAST FINAL in D-6 hours. UNREAL.
But what better way to be um “studying” than writing a blog post??? :PP Thas what i thought :)
Just thinking about what to do after taking my last final was too exciting I honestly had a hard time falling asleep. Can ya relate??
I don’t really have much plans for the summer except for recharging my batteries, cleaning, trying some new things and the like :) Just really enjoying and making the most out of time because I think I burned out pretty big time trying to get through this spring finals season. I honestly can’t imagine how it would have been if it were back on campus.
Like any other post, this is a little brain dump on my part. I’ll try to make it as comprehensible and understandable to the best of my ability but please bear with me!!
I honestly feel a lil distant with God. I’m so the type of person who waits until I hit the lowest of all lows to turn back to Him full force. Definitely during this finals period I’ve done that AHHA rip. There was a point I was just so stressed out of my mind on all of the things I needed to do before the semester was over. But right now, not as much… which is not good. My pastor gave a sermon the other day about spiritual discipline. I am so lacking in that.
So here’s what I realized. I don’t need to be broken to feel the necessity and urge to turn back to Him. It’s supposed to be a lifestyle, a way of living, not a chore. I should be constantly thinking about Him, praising Him through the bad, of course, but also when things are going right.
When it comes to discipline, that also means I have to set a time apart of my day to spend time with God. Honestly, my routines are kind of messed up right now because of trying to finish up finals as fast as I can but I’m going to have to figure out what to do about it.
It starts as a duty, becomes a discipline, and then something to delight in.
I need to start from the beginning. Find a time of the day to do devos consistently. And there’ll no longer be the pressure of “oh, I need to go to class” or “oh I have an exam that I should be studying for.” I’ll take as long as I would like. While of course listening to music :)
I need and want to clean out my room. BIG TIME. Like deeeeep clean. Not so much of a makeover, but more like getting rid of the things that I really don’t need and trying my very best to adopt a minimalist lifestyle. Absolutely impossible for me HAHA but we’re going to try our best :)
Also, in need of cleaning my phone and computer. I’ve recently gotten the “not enough storage” notification wayyyy too many times. Whoops.
Oh oh oh also my Spotify playlists :) I also want to explore more music hehe
I’ve started to feel a little suffocated with all of these things lying around in my room so I want to thoroughly clean up and maybe even decorate my room. We’ll see.
I’m going to try to still be responsible even with all of this freedom now at my hands. Well, in 6 hours I’ll be free. I honestly can’t believe I’m writing this at this time HAHA but that just goes to show. How done. I really am. LOL
So, I’m going to try to keep a schedule and ofc I have Joyce to keep me accountable <3 I wouldn’t call it a blog challenge but more of developing greater consistency :)) and also an outlet for me to sit, set aside time, and just think, reflect, let my creative juices flow.
On that note, I’ve recently started up my Youtube channel again haha
If you’re super bored, you can go check it out LOL
GAH I really don’t like putting myself out there, but I’m in need of working on that so please help meeeee
I’m also going to try setting a schedule for that to :P double accountability lets get itttt ahah
With all this time and freedom that WILL be in my hands, I’m kind of teeming with ideas LOL something fun to do to keep me busy ;) will let you know about those sooooooon
On a more somber note, I feel like because of all this time to focus on myself and kind of stay in my bubble in the comforts of my room, house, and of course, where I’m sitting right now (my bed LOL), I’m feeling a bit unaware of life circumstances outside of my house. As in the position of the world. I’m definitely aware of how critical the situation is and do hear here and there the news from my parents etc, but I don’t really feel the urgency. I know it’s good to unplug from the news because too much of that is also unhealthy, but I’m trying to figure out a good and healthy balance on how to do this.
But on a brighter note, there’s just a lot to be looking forward to! :) TIME is PRECIOUS. I want to be able to spend more quality time with my family, watch shows and movies and kdramas that I’ve been meaning to watch (HEHE), and of course, can’t forget time with God.
Uh, I should really go get ready for my exam. But once it is over HEHE I’ll be backkk <3
For we live by faith, not by sight.
