Yeah we talk a lot about how Izzy looks at Ed. But how about we talk about how Izzy looks at Stede?

#I am still procrastinating my uni exams by making Izzy gifs so what #row 2 is the obligatory lip check #also I know that row 3 left gif he's talking about Edward but he's still staring at Stede so it counts #look at him he can be soft with Stede too when he wants to #is it just me or does he looks kinda sad in row 3 right? Izzy are you having quick second thoughts about trying to kill Stede? Hmm? #Izzy had the hots for Stede before Ed did but he's in denial #should I tag this as Stizzy? #fuck it I will #stizzy #ofmd #ofmd spoilers #ofmd izzy #izzy hands #con o'neill #my gifs

a nuance to the uni/school thing is also i think that like... for most humanities subjects in the uk you mainly won't have "classes" in the form of lessons (languages i think would be a key exception here), you'll have lectures which are a one-way thing and then seminars which are more discussion based and involve reading/prep work beforehand, and at some unis you'll have smaller group tutorials or supervisions

but like. the pedagogical culture is a bit different i think? it is much less like school and more heavily reliant on independent learning. you might only have a handful of contact hours a week and everything else is you in a library doing the reading or whatever; you're not gonna have a lot of short assignments and quizzes so much as, like, a bunch of research essays (how many will vary heavily by course and institution) so it's more like Doing Research than doing Homework the way you would at school, even early on in undergrad

and this is partly due to specialising earlier rather than having gen ed courses so you've got a much narrower range of modules to be doing yunno

(this doesn't apply to like, stem subjects. they've got labs and shit. god knows what they're doing over there.)

#my undergrad institution was deeply atypical since we had weekly essays but zero graded coursework #so EVERYTHING relied on end of year exams and the weekly essays didn't contribute to your marks at all #they were just a learning exercise and the discussion part was a big part of it #but that is not how most unis are structured for undergrad #the only time i ever had anything i would call 'homework' like assignments would be language classes #but i still probably wouldn't call it that except tongue in cheek #bc all the work is at home

it should be illegal for people to be awake before the sun’s up

#had to get my ass up at 6am bc I didn’t get ANY studying done yesterday 😂🔫 #the exam is at 9:30am. I have to leave the house at 9:10am #at this point it’s me and my punch flavoured can of monster against the world #hella goes to uni

you all know that audio from bladerunner? "you look lonely i can fix that"?? my brain wouldn't let me rest until i haven't drawn that with Sun n Moon

but jokes aside, really self-indulgent comic bc both Security Breach and Ruin came out when i was at a low point mentally and helped me greatly just be able to move forward and get through each day (and i won't even be getting into how much these 2 fictional robot jesters have helped me refind my passion for drawing)

i really hope that more people can relate to this :))

#anyways i mean it when i say my brain wouldn't rest until i whipped my pencil out n started drawing #tbh i stumbled upon the audio waaay back like 5-6 months ago?? #but just now like literally just now i though #damn that REALLY fits Sun n Moon #i think it might be bc this semester was really stressful for me #and this last month has been hell #i was honestly drained physically and mentally #but i managed to go through each day and move forward #n just when my whole energy was running out n just when i had a couple of days left where i had to work more than my body could carry #right then Ruin came out and it was like;; really a breath of fresh air #my brain was suddenly thinking about the lore and theories and not anymore stressing abt projects and exams #while i still had to work Ruin gave me a push to be able to finish what i had to do #now i'm taking a small 2 week break where i'm gonna go easier with uni work and letting my body heal itself :)) #but anyways enough rambling n everything #i really hope more of y'all can relate to this comic :)) #now onto the tags #fnaf daycare attendant #fnaf superstar daycare #sundrop #moondrop #fnaf sun #fnaf moon #moondrop x y/n #sundrop x y/n #tw eye contact #doodles #traditional doodle #comic #Ghost doodles

anxiety is stored in your chest sometimes in your gut and sometimes in both places as a little treat

#im horribly aware of the fact i have a heart cause it's been thumping loudly all morning and i feel like my chest is caving in #never been this nervous and anxious in my life not even when i had anxiety attacks over my uni exams lmao #wouldn't rule out the possibility of me throwing up either to be completely honest

[armenelols]

You ever get nicely into studying but then have to stop to take your recently broken glasses to the optician and when you get back there's suddenly this block stopping you from studying and suddenly it's 2.30 am and you only now open your notes and then it's 3.40 am and you have to go to sleep because your exam is in 5 hours and you are utterly fucked and you really should have studied during those 6 hours you've spent scrolling on phone? Did I mention the exam is for 5 credits. Yeah

#hahaaa god damn it where's the pressure that's supoosed to arrive the day before the exam #i am not *completely* fucked #it's organic chemistry I. and i already studied a lot of it for the test you need to pass to be allowed into exam #but #it's gonna be so fucking close #i need 60% so 12 points #i did the test my uni put on the internet that's supposed to be like the exam test #i had about 12.5 points hahaaa (there weren't correct answers posted but a classmate discussed a lot of it with a professor so we knew some #so if i get unlucky and get a harder test? #welp #pray for me lol #ema rambles

venting in the tags again bc i'm literally shaking right now wtf

#god i hate it so much #my exams start on monday and i'm not even halfway through everything i need to know for my first exam #i've had all the holidays to study but i just can't concentrate on anything #i've been in my room all day every day (except the days i spent w family like christmas and new year ofc) #and seemingly i'm studying all day #my family thinks i spend all day studying #but the only thing i'm capable of doing most of the time is stare at the things i have to do w/o having any idea of wtf i'm doing #my brain won't shut tf up and telling me stuff that i know are not true #but i just can't #i feel like i've been having an anxiety attack non stop since this monday #not very bad most of the time but it doesn't really stop yk? #and i feel like i have a weight on my chest that i can't really take off #i've been going to therapy and we've come to the conclusion that the cause of my anxiety overall are my studies #(not counting my social anxiety that's been getting worse every day to the point that i don't even want to go out with my best friends) #which doesn't really surprise me but it's just Too Much #i just want to drop everything but since idk what i'd do if i quit this career i chose to do my exams #bc maybe they are useful if i do change my path #but i just can't find it in me to focus and study because my mind is racing all the time #i just want to lie down and cry but i don't even have the strength to do that #i just feel so weak and miserable ever since i started uni and every day it gets worse and worse #my mind just screams at me saying #'stop complaining all the time. no one cares. everyone goes through stuff like that. you're no different. stfu and study like everyone does' #and i know i could do it if i tried but i just can't #why tf is it so difficult to be normal and do what i'm supposed to do for once ffs.... #venting #maca speaks

anyway i don't think ive ever put this here but i cosplayed the Summoner in May 2015 and this is where my cosplays peaked, i was never this good again after that. one of my proudest achievements

#homestuck #summoner homestuck #homestuck the summoner #rufioh nitram #i need a tag for my own rambles #my face #my cosplays #this was so much work to make. i had a lot of help #but i was finishing uni at the time id spend the day in the library studying for my exams and then go home and paint horns. mad

[creatureesque]

I have a very scary exam today pray for me

#its a philology exam #is philology a thing in other countries outisde of where i live? please let me know #like is it a major you can pick or at least a subject you can study? #anyway #literally making finishing touches to some of the questions i had to prepare rn.... i have to go to uni in an hour

[hella1975]

just think this time tomorrow ill be publicly indecent in a spoons somewhere. i am so strong

#ONE MORE EXAM. WE CAN DO THIS. I WILL BE DONE IN LITERALLY LESS THAN 24 HOURS NOW #AND THEN THE NEXT EXAM SEASON ISNT UNTIL MAY. COME ON GIRL #we have such a fun plan for tomorrow though bc the consensus has just been 'we need to get fucking mangled after this exam' #like i havent been out-out in WEEKS the closest i came was the end of december for a hometown house party of all things #i didnt even go out for nye. let's all take a moment and consider the implications for someone like me NOT GOING OUT ON NYE #so i am OVERDUE a good night out and then on top of that ive had exams be SO fr #and also this is the first year where my main friendship group (i.e not my housemates but my actual social circle) #are ALL econ students like there's about five of us and we all do econ and yeah two of them ive been mates with since first year #(the girl is my best mate at uni and is always who im on about if i talk about a 'girl on my course' and the lad is the one i lived with #in first year and have kind of got a thing with now?) BUT THE OTHERS ARE NEW ADDITIONS AND THAT'S SO FUN #so we're ALL gonna tip out of that exam and then me and her are gonna go back to mine to get ready bc am i fuck doing make-up #before that exam. the STATES i have shown up in these past few days i think the invigilators are worried about me #and then we're meeting the lads at the pub and starting there and THEN going spoons bc it's me and the girl's tradition #(calling her just 'the girl' is so funny. woman 🫵) after exams to buy each other mystery shots at spoons and we HAVE to drink them #and then one of the lads really wants to go to a karaoke bar for some reason?? so that might be in my future #AND THEN we're going clubbing. im so ready. take me home vodka shots. the end is near please please please #hella goes to uni

if i had somehow during my exam realised i had gotten the leaked paper last night i would simply just do my exam as normal and never talk about it RIP to nam hae-e and sun-jae but i am different

#crash course in romance #kdrama #it's not like you two purposely did it #and anyway back when i was in 9th and cbse was experimenting on us like lab rats whether to board or not to #i had gotten the science paper too bc cbse sent the papers but the schools were allowed to set the schedule themselves #and st marys science exam happened before my school #literally everybody was trying to get their hands on the exam papers from as many schools as they can #ik it's a but different but like chill kiddos #we all used to laugh #like it was cbse's fault then here it's sung-jae eomma and that education director's crime #oh back during my bachelor's those uni politicians wannabe kids would leak the papers through whatsapp #well leaking in the sense there'll be a list of questions and usually 50% would be in the exams #good times

I didn't get into an art uni for the 4th time, and the worst part was that on the exam interview the teacher recognized my xiu xiu shirt and we talked about my favorite bands and what books I was reading at the time T__T He was literally the only person irl who asked... AND HE DIDN'T LET ME IN...

#later tonight #I spent 100$ printing all of the stuff out it still drives me mad #other universities had dignity to send it all online first at least... #not exactly mad about the uni itself because well I never actually cared for graphic design #so it was sort of a surprise that I did get to the exams part at all #still very unfortunate #why does every single time they tell me I'm mid and that they were expecting me to perform a circus with horses on the entry exams

tired girl hours i’m just ranting bcos i don’t have enough time to cry

#tw rant #studying med is no joke. ik it was gonna be a commitment n that it wasnt gonna be easy n i thought i was prepared but im not #its my passion. i love what im studying and ive dedicated myself to this path but i just. its so hard n i just want to cry. everyday feels #so tiring. morning to night classes. when i get home i have to read 4 chapters MINIMUM n the books are so thick + exams almost everyday #i feel worse knowing there’s this 1 girl in my friend group that cant decide whether she likes me or not. one moment shes complimenting me #n asking where i get my outfits or my nails done or my earrings or whatever then praising me that i probably study the least out of everyone #yet still reach high student rankings but its not that im lazy im just so exhausted n its hard to have motivation... lowkey envy how my #friends study minimum 4 hours a day. we’re all tired n sleep deprived. even taking 30mins to eat makes me feel guilty. cant even watch 1 ep #of an anime bcos ill be thinking about the amount of work to do. and i have sm plans. i wanna be more active and have a healthier lifestyle #but i cant find it in me to wake up every 5am to go to the gym when i just wanna get as much sleep when im lucky to finish my studies today #i also dont see my bestest friends everyday anymore. some of us move to diff unis or some in diff majors. i just miss them so bad it hurts #and i miss the girl i used to be when i still had time and energy to indulge in my hobbies. i miss playing genshin and writing fics #just when i got back to writing and enjoyed it LOVED IT i had to go back to uni. i feel terribly lonely even when im always with people #im afraid ill completely lose grasp of the little things that make me happy bcos the weight of my responsibilities are heavier #im afraid ill be too focused on success again like i was when i was 17 and forget that its okay to relax too but idk #and i wanna meet more people make more friends have new experiences. i wanna feel alive again. and theres sm i wanna talk to or get to know #but im so afraid of people hurting me or disappointing me or people getting to know me only for the friendships to fail or we’ll dislike eac #h other. i wanna date and fall in love again and experience the romance my peers have. i wanna have someone to call my own person but the fe #ar of having someone only to lose them someday scares the hell outta me. im not ready for another heartbreak so i isolate myself and watch #people from afar. uni gives me sm freedom to do everything else and form my own identity but i dont wanna be Perceived. I wanna be heard and #seen n connect with people. but w my curreny state idt i can handle being vulnerable with others. it feels so lonely that the things i want #are out of my rrach but idt i can manage my time to meet new people and make new memories. i console myself by shopping a lot and going to #spas to relax yet i still find it hard to sleep. im afraid im wasting my time. im not as brave as i used to be. im not as efficient as i was #i get older and more tired and while i never questioned if studying med was the path i want i do question what will happen next #“is this all im ever going to be?” im good at what i do but day by day i lose sight of tje girl who knew how to laugh n smile. ik what makes #me happy but i rarely smile genuinely anymore. im so tired and want to sleep for a long time but i dont wanna fail. i dont wanna be NOT good #but it makes me cry when i know i can do many great things but i dont feel loved. people compliment me but dont approach me bcos they say im #intimidating or that im too quiet in class. i wish i could tell them i wanna join their parties too or i wanna meet their friends n hangout #but what if it doesnt work out? what if i wasted my time getting to know someone id eventually regret? what if im the disappointing one? #the days are getting shorter but it always feels like a long day. im ashamed to admit i want someone to hold me yet refuse to have anyone
