There's something really good about doing stuff you'd normally only do at school in your free time. Studying networking once during the summer, reading Shakespeare with all that context on the 100-page preface, etc. I should do this more often.

[mh -] the urge to do a major yap and rant to new friends, for the sole purpose of culling those who do not pass the vibe check but isn't that a little toxic, though? And what if I truly do scare them all away? What am I left with? What of my _reputation_?

I'm the queen of complicated sentences, but I also like optimising them for clarity. Whoever wrote this "General Introduction" to Hamlet (it's like 66 pages btw) _loves_ their complicated sentences. I must persevere

it's so freaking refreshing when I meet someone at uni whom I can speak in Tagalog to my parents highly discourage me from speaking Tagalog at home nowadays, and I barely have any Filipino friends at school and now uni (where are the Kabayans at bruh 😭 so many went to medicine instead of IT)

[mh -] I think I see why it sucks so much to be with new friends. It's cause some don't share my strong views, and there are more views of mine that I have to tuck away lest things start getting messy. And it turns out, some of these things I've had to hide from my high school friends too […]
