july thus far
My laptop buzzes too loudly. It's really irritating.
The second school term started two weeks ago. Routines and deadlines nudge their way back into my life. After everything that happened in June, the good and the bad, I find school quite tolerable: the train rides to and fro, the lunch hours I spend watching videos, scrolling through Tumblr while listening to my lecturers. It's all quite... yes, tolerable. On some days, I want to smash my fist through a wall (Research and Interview Techniques class. I despite this class.) but on other days, it's almost enjoyable.
With class assignments distracting me, I don't have much time to dwell on stuff like the future or my emotions. I am also actively avoiding thinking about such things. Fundamentally, I am "thinking less", which is good for me, I think. Whenever I find myself even just turning towards those topics, I play a random episode of an anime I like. This tactic's been successful thus far.
Since July started, my days pass by rather peacefully. Peaceful is worse than exciting. But it is also way better than depressing. So is peaceful good or not? I can't tell at this point of time. And this is where I stop the thought processes because any further and I'll be in a sour mood again. Urgh, I'm so moody.
I guess the only remarkable thing about July is me re-watching old anime, bringing me back to my 12-year-old days. One of my lecturers showed the class the first episode of Shingeki no Kyojin, which I adore, so in the following days I re-watched the whole thing. After that, I found myself re-watching Death Note (and I bought a lovely Ryuk sweater online. I can't wait for it to get here!). And, this past weekend, while I got a little impatient for the next episode of the second season of Free!, I re-watched the first season.
I've also been suffering this stupid cough for three weeks now. It got better about a week ago, with medication from the doctor, but now it's morphed into something else. There's an irritating itch at the back of my throat and when I cough, it's for a good ten to fifteen seconds, with me coming close to vomiting. I've been taking cough medicine but it doesn't seem to be working... Maybe I should head back to the doctor soon.
And with that, I end this blog post (which I'd started on a whim with nothing in mind to write about). Good night!
