Dreams do come true
I've been absent for a while, and that's because I've been busy – I'm now working as a Software Engineer! 🥹
Not even two years ago I was working 3 part time jobs, I had to skip classes in high school in order to work, I was shamefully collecting cans to recycle for money, and my salary would go to helping my mom out with bills at home and making sure we had food. I still graduated as one of the top students of my class.
Today, I'm a software engineer. I work for a clothing brand, and this morning I went to the sample shop and I bought whatever I wanted for me and my family, at lunch I went to (free) pilates at the office and had a shower in the changing rooms that provide towels(!). My day consists of writing code, sitting in meetings, drinking tea and snacking on fruit and the occasional sweet treats. I can work from wherever I want. I pay both my own and my family's rent and I am still able to save and live comfortably for the rest of the month.
This is so surreal to me – I can't believe this is my reality now 😭 Dreams do come true. If I can do it so can you. Keep coding, keep studying, you'll make it. It will all be worth it! ❤️

Some things I did this weekend, in no particular order:
Finally started working on my essay on Eyes Wide Shut
Had a minor (major?) mental breakdown
Practiced for our symposium on our paper with my research buddy
Said my French presentation to myself about 100 times
Made really good avocado toast
Drank an inordinate amount of tea

It’s been a long week, and there’s even longer ones to come.
But what is there to do?
What is there to do but to keep going?

Haven’t made a post in a while huh.
Finals season has really crept in now, and I don’t think I’ve ever been so busy. Here’s to hoping my grades will be as bright as the spring sun outside.

Studying is hard work, but it's all worth it when you finally get the grades you deserve.

Should study the linear relationship between distance from bed and productivity. Test subject? Me.
