*Reviving This Thread*

I started teaching myself Korean language and culture so that I can learn more about my ethnicity. I've also enlisted myself into the Army so that I can serve my country and earn a full scholarship after my service.

Recently I started to pay more attention to studying (unfortunately too late because nearly all the time when I was supposed to studying I was playing videogames and now I can't correct most of my grades). I also restrained playing video games.

I've been dealing with bad headaches and an irritating cough for weeks and decided enough was enough.
I changed lots of things in my life in an attempt to combat these, such as sleeping more, drinking more water and less sugary drinks, eating healthier and going outside more. it also helps me feel more positive overall so I'd say it's working out great so far! :)

Is purposely fail this school year AGAIN considered a good thing?

decided to actually look to more experienced producers for feedback on the things I need work on, and now I'm integrating with a community of various types of artists and producers. im taking music production more seriously at the moment.

Since my health isn't really all that great, I've also started to do exercise occasionally. My lung capacity is still shit, my heart can't handle very much, and my upper body and core strength are all weak as shit, soft as noodles.

Might as well fuck myself up short-term to strengthen myself in the long run.

Seriously, I've been getting aches and pains in certain joints because i don't eat well and is also partially due to sleep deprivation, and since i don't drink milk or consume much dairy, my bones are fucking twigs.

Oof.

Maybe I can get myself in shape and perhaps gain some weight finally. I'm still barely in the triple digits, like 103 lbs or something. Ugh. I really need to start caring for myself more or I might actually have a high probabilitly of having osteoporosis in the future.

Learned how to deal with my abuse situation better, it seems to pay off.

I've also been trying to look more towards the postitives of me becoming more physically female.

I've been eating a bit more so i can try to gain some weight.

I'm currently far too underweight at 94 pounds, 5'6". My body mass index is 15.2, which is pretty much on the severe end.

I also plan to get up and move around a bit more, maybe exercise a little more.

I never intended to be this underweight, and I never really cared about weight in general, I just thought I had a rather slender body frame.

Basically, I'll be making some gradual changes in hopes of being at least a few pounds closer to a healthy weight by the next 6 weeks.

I've been trying to be more organized in school and at home, trying my best to organize my binders for every class and put everything in the sections they belong in. I'm doing pretty well so far, so hooray me

I have been attempting to memorize the formulas of the musical scales.
I've already achieved it with six of them. It is really useful, I don't know why I didn't do it before.

A bit motivated to stay alive for my own things to do before they get me down.

I finally gained some weight.

I weigh about 98 pounds, 5'6".

4 pounds in 2 months. A bit slow, but we're getting there.

I'm working to hopefully reach 100 lbs by the end of the year.

I still need to build up both fat and muscle, and trying to keep myself running without too many issues for a decent amount of time with my jogging unit in PE, in hopes of improving cardiovascular endurance to counter and lower my chances of heart complications later on in life. I'm not doing too well, but I'll keep going at it for however long I can.

Strolling around the forums I guess?

I stopped smoking, and picked up a new habit in the form of vaping, which while not perfectly healthy, is supposedly 95% healthier, especially for people quitting smoking. Quite a controversy, that, but I believe what i've read and what i've seen, not to mention I feel just overall better than I have a few weeks prior when I was still smoking cigs.

I started losing weight and started actually getting on top of my problem with spending money and staying motivated. Losing weight has been going well but for some reason, Saving money for me is quite hard. If I see something nice or a sale, my impulse is to buy it haha. Good luck to everyone else with what they're doing!

Exercise and osu! are my coping mechanisms for stress which I started at exactly February 1 of this year. So far the stress I've been experiencing (mostly from education) has been lessened so I guess its a good thing.

i'm only 16 right now so i'm still in school, anyway for me,

i have been getting low grades like 89 below in major subjects especially math. the reason was because i haven't been able to listen to lessons because of my friends, i've became a lot talkative and lost focus in school. i prioritized osu! and social life.

- i distant my self with them, i started with not eating lunch with them and soon requested my sensei to change my seats so i'll be in front. it was successful and got myself higher grades since i became a highschooler.

before i distant myself with my friends, i started to think what will happen to my future.
i plan to become a chem engineer, but with my current grades i knew it won't cut it. i guess this also helped my mind to decide whether i should still have fun at the mean time or just focus on my future.

there have been highs and lows in my life, 2 of my closest friends ended their lives early. they were the ones who praised my arts ever since the beginning, and my girlfriend cheated on me.

it has been 4 months after all of these and i think i'm enjoying this life a bit more than what i expected it to be. i thought it will be really boring without my friends in school. well they sometimes look and laugh at me, when i'm alone and going straight to the library. discord has really been my friend, i've been chatting with other people i met in osu in my server. hope this can help you in some way, i just want to get this out of my chest. :)

I read this book awhile ago, called "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck". While a little satirical, it does have a lot of really great life advice and I recommend it. Anyway, I was really afraid of this college interview I had, but I felt a lot better after reading that book and I actually did pretty well at the interview.

I also have a lot of bad habits I have to break... like uh, not finishing my own songs, triple tapping on doubles in osu, forgetting about my japanese anki deck for a week and having to review 500 cards. :/

l started to study way more for school and I'm doing Physical Education after the half term. l also have a friend.

I suffer with anxiety which is depressingly bad and l isolate myself a lot from people irl. However, I'm now reading aloud sometimes in English class. This, to me, is my biggest ever achievement. Even if me reading is the only time anyone hears my voice.

Started to care a lot more about art too, this year, as in my school coursework and hobby. I've improving with both quite dramatically.
