why I love the sound of utensils in the morning
Sounds are like a key that can unlock a safe. A safe of memories, filled to the brim with sweet recollections and joyful sensations. The sounds of the stormy seas, the cheerful chirping of crickets in tall grasses, or the golden shimmer of sunlight on skin, these are all like songs that compose the music of a living universe. For me, home is more than a place. It is an intricate web of memories, deeply intertwined with those who've made them with me. The sounds of my home are the music that fills me with peace and comfort. 
 My house, too has its own playlist. Home is where the heart is, and for me, the heart of home is the kitchen. Even before the sun is up and the world is still asleep, my mom is making breakfast, using steel utensils to prepare a delicious meal for the family. The clinking of plates mixed with the clanging of pots and the sizzle of pans fill the kitchen with comforting sounds that instantly evoke memories of love and happiness from my childhood. Now that I'm away at college, the silence is deafening. Without those precious sounds, I feel lost and alone, longing for the comfort of home.
The kitchen would come to life on Sunday mornings, a hub of energy and excitement as my father took on the role of cook. He had his own unique recipe for Maggi, a dish that I have yet to find elsewhere. While Maggi may still be readily available, nothing can compare to my father’s cooking. The soothing sounds of pots and pans have now been replaced by the harsh and jarring noises of an alarm clock. Instead of rising slowly to the sound of peaceful cooking, I am now jolted out of bed by the loud beeping of an alarm clock.
My family has moved several times growing up, so I'm used to leaving my home behind to start a new chapter in life. But there was always something different about leaving home for college. Unlike past times, I wasn't just leaving behind a house this time. I was leaving home.
Comfort crawls from each crack and crevice of my pink room. They've been my sanctuary throughout my life and always provided me with a sense of safety, security, and comfort. I miss the simple yet calming atmosphere of my room, the familiar decorations and furnishings, the warmth of my bed, and the feeling of security when I lay on the bedsheet. Leaving those pink walls for college feels like I lost a part of myself.
College life is tough, especially when you're trying to adjust to a new environment and missing everything about home that you took for granted. It feels like a constant struggle to balance between surviving in the new world and holding on to the old one. It feels like a constant tug-of-war between two worlds, each one pulling you in different directions, and you're just trying to find balance and hold on to both. I miss my mom coming into my room to show me what she made and how she'd excitedly tell me all about the dish and the ingredients used. I know she still calls me to talk about what she baked, but it's not the same as having her here in person, able to share her joy and excitement with me through her expressions and gestures. 
Everything about my childhood home had a charm and warmth that I'm currently missing in my college life. While the real world brings many new opportunities and challenges, I'm still clinging to those sweet things that made my home. Serenity is a sanctuary one must be prepared to step away from to see the world as it is, yet always be prepared to come home to and have full thankfulness for. Every little thing about home makes me feel safe and secure, from the comforting smell of my mother's cooking to my brother’s booming voice. I miss the feeling of coming home after a long day outside and knowing that my family is waiting for me. A home is a place of such ambiance that my heart beats in a contented rhythm.

I just want to cry cry cry so much, October is so choc-filled with college-related things and it’s going to be so hectic starting the new week, I’m super tensed. I didn’t get to do anything for the Aries full moon last night because it was raining and I feel so guilty! I feel like I’m falling behind in my spiritual practice (which keeps me grounded and helps my mental health quite a lot) and academics, personal stuff I just- *bark bark bark bark bark* *with passionate confusion and frustration*
Yeah.
I’m going to remind myself that the Universe is always here and just as present in my daily life; I don’t need to make special time for it if I can’t. They know me and love me regardless.
Thanks for listening, Tumblr😭🩵

Can someone please give me, a college freshmen, advice on how I’m supposed to make it on my own in the real world? Because it’s currently 2:43 am here and I’m now starting to really think about my future and I thought I was going to be able to do everything all on my own but now that I keep thinking about it the more my anxiety is telling me I won’t be able to and that I need to stay home and not move almost 5 hours away from home… HELP ME PLS!

college life, i guess (?)
man, i hate myself.
recently i got into college which made me very proud of myself but i just can’t take it anymore, it’s so hard to do everything on time and do it the right way.
i plagiarized a classmates work, and i don’t feel proud about it. i feel like college isn’t for me but i still want to do it because so many people are counting on me to finish my career and make them proud but i just can’t, it plays with my mental and emotional health a lot.
i’m studying what i wanted to, shouldn’t that be enough? why isn’t it enough? why are tears rolling down my cheeks? why do i feel like a piece of garbage for not understanding a fucking powerpoint presentation? why can’t i stand up for myself in group projects?
it’s just a lot.

Changing majors...
I’ve decided to change my major from math to mathematics education. It wasn’t an easy choice but it was one I needed to make. I found the environment in my classes and amongst my peers and professors to be quite hostile and unwelcoming. I’m not changing my major because I can’t do it or because I don’t want to study pure math, but because I can’t continue to subject myself to a toxic environment that negativity impacts my mental health.
I know that education is the field I want to be in. I was so close to a math degree but I would get it at the cost of my mental health and that’s not something I’m willing to sacrifice. So I’m changing my major in the middle of my senior year with 7 classes to go. I just want you all to know that the road to your goals transforms overtime and the endpoint can look drastically different from what you originally envisioned, and that’s totally fine.
