I tell my stories, yet this blog is truly not about me: I want to build people up; I want to elevate. I seek to fortify the minds of those who seek to conquer the battles that lie ahead. Thank you to everyone who ever helped me.

Let's go!
I spent the majority of my two week holidays studying for the next semester. Those were the most peaceful and fullfilling days of this year so far. I had not completed my preparation, yet, today was last day reserved for preparation. Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day.
It feels like half an eternity passed since the last time I wrote – but it’s only been a week. I got in a decent routine where I would get up at 6-ish, eat breakfast, and make my way to the library. I read on my way there. Then, I usually study for three hours straight, eat lunch in the nearby cafeteria, go for a little walk, and continue to study less intensely until I return home a few hours later.
Overall, I’ve made decent progress in studying the contents of the semester to come. Yet, I have some news: after seeing the new schedules, I realized they are a massive obstacle to my plan to finish university earlier. There are two significant problems: First, out of the few subjects I can study without much preparation, none are when I have off. Second, most of the subjects left don’t exist in the higher semesters because my degree program is so new. I will have to figure something out. If I don’t, the first semester will repeat, and I don’t want that – the first semester was unsatisfying because I didn’t have too much to do, but I also didn’t have enough time and energy to dedicate myself to other things – that made me become apathetic towards life. I also don’t want to embarrass myself; hence, I have to figure out a solution.
Altogether, I learned more in the two weeks after the exams than in the exam-month because my mental health improved. That means, in any case, having that goal served me.
A few days ago, I started to study for the upcoming semester. Now I'm at the library and it is completely empty. Is it not easy when there's no competition? Mediocre goals are the most crowded, aren't they?
Tip: Read on the computer to enhance comprehension and focus.

Because these texts were unessential or I was to lazy to edit
them.
The story of this blog
On a Wednesday evening, back when I was 16, I got the idea to start a
blog. By Thursday
noon, I had written and published three texts. The next day, I got a rejection. Thus, my blog became a testament
to
the indomitability of my spirit.
With love, Kiryl P., 2024
