Trying to stay on top of it during my senior year of my degree... my desk feels cluttered but cozy and I'm here for it 📚

i needed to read this today so im sharing it to all of you!!
shoutout to the people that like learning, who love learning, who want to learn and understand and create things on their own terms, but can’t go to college/university. not for lack of money or access (although those are obviously valid and understandable), but because their disabilities prevent them from doing it. who don’t have enough spoons to take a university course and complete the amount of mental and physical work it entails. who are too anxious to leave home and don’t have the resources to combat that anxiety. who get burned out quickly and easily and can’t handle the amount of effort university takes. it’s not your fault and does not determine your worth - you are allowed to do what makes you comfortable. for those that mourn the loss of their college experience, i understand and your feelings are valid. whatever the reason may be, i see you.

i am excited (and slightly apprehensive) about this semester!!
since i’ve started working on my bachelor thesis, i feel like a proper ✨academic✨ doing research and i love it.
bringing you gentle vibes from a midnight finals session. if you’ve started studying later than you’d planned, it’s okay– take a deep breath and begin.

You are not “wasting your potential” because you took a break, or because you’re exhausted, sick or because you are struggling to find purpose. Please, take some time off, take care of yourself, listen to the needs of your body and your mind. Do the things you want to do to make you happy and fulfilled, not what others think you should, not what’s more successful in their minds. You aren’t wasting your life, nor wasting your potential. You are still deciding how to live it, what is the purpose of it, and you will find motivation to fight for what you want when you figure yourself out, but please take your time and don’t listen to the pressure of people around you to comfort to their expectations of success.
