If you find yourself having to try so hard to please someone, that person probably isn't worth the effort. Don't let your life be defined by others. Just be yourself.

Recess week was the previous week and week 7 was just over. These two weeks were filled by studying for midterms and interviews for IA. While interviews have always been a stressful thing for me, I feel much less nervous this time round, probably because I did the necessary preparations. The second half of the semester will be much more hectic, with all the project deadlines and catching up on lectures.
But more than stress from school, I'm so darn sick of all these interpersonal things. Now I don't feel like explaining myself anymore. Just let it be. Not like it's going to make a difference even if I explain huh.
Many people make the mistake of saying how they understand what the other party feels. But no, don't say you understand if you don't actually internalize it. Don't say it for the sake of sounding like you empathise and then simply brush it off. Things will just keep going in circles.
