so many things listed on my to-do list and it's just the things i need to do for uni...

i'm at the stage in my studies where i should have an abundance of experience, whether it may be finishing an online course on something, volunteering, work experience, shadowing, internships, part-time jobs, that are related to the future career that i aim for.

the thing is, i don't have any of that. or if i do have experience it's not directly related to the career that i am aiming for. i can mesh hospitality to make it sound related to health and social care. which it does because both has to do with people, just different approaches.

and with that, i have midterms coming into full-speed. the second semester for uni just started 2 weeks ago and i'm already behind. i didn't go to my lectures in the first week due to me just having come back from my vacation in my home country. post-vacation-depression if that's even a thing. it sucks to get used to a routine and environment and have to come back to reality. i should have been watching, listening, and taking notes from the lecture recordings. i tried, but nothing was feeding into my brain. i told myself i need the week to adjust back, then i can catch up.

end of first week i had a trip booked with my friend, we went to see a concert. coming back from that trip before the beginning of the second week of term, again, having lived happily and enjoyed a trip with another friend and having to come back to reality, felt like another slap to my face.

okay that was harsh, but that's what it really feels like.

second week started i only went to my practicals and not lectures. again, having to process these blues i have from my trips...

third week is about to start and i am faced with a list of lectures to catch up on, tasks i have to do before practical classes, midterms coming close, appointments for sorting my cv in applying for internships and part-time work, as well as look into volunteering.

i just have to tell myself to do work. even if it's not for an hour straight, as long as i keep doing work, that would lessen my load even just a bit.

small progress is still progress
one task at a time
one step at a time
