Weekly Post #6: It's actually week 28 (+ an unpublished entry)

Hi, my name is Amelia and I'm desperatey in need for holidays.

-----

Back at it again, write an entry in spite of procrastination; that's. our. amelia. 


Short Term Period; Better than 3-month holiday?

Third week of short term period (it's like summer class but since we don't have summer--it's either very hot or raining, no in between--we don't call it summer class) and i'm mentally exhausted lol it's just this same subject 4 days in a row from 8 to 10 and i'm on the edge of losing my mind.


What did I do on Holiday...?

The answer is simple.

Nothing. 

BUTTT days after the short term started I went to PRJ with old friends, impulsively! We didn't plan it at all. Went home at half past 11 and got locked out of my house HAHA made my dad came out to open the gate :(

And to be fair, since the short term started I have spent more IDR 700K. I was that crazy. It just started 2 weeks ago!!!!!!! The expense included all-day trip to PRJ, 2 times karaoke, restaurant meals, and snacks obviously.

...EH WAIT I remember something! I did something on holiday. It's Mystic Messenger. Yep. Played the Zen route. Life has never been the same eversince.

Weekly Post #5: I'M ECSTATIC

Hi, my name is Amelia and sometimes I forget and leave my phone in the bathroom at night so when the alarm goes off it just scares me to death.

-----

'sup y'all. I was going through mid-term exams last week so I didn't even have time to open my laptop; wait I didn't even bring my laptop home lmao. Also week 12 wasn't even interesting so worry not! BOI did I have fun this week!

Mid-term Exams = Total Nightmare

I did soooo bad! I used to say that even though I knew it wasn't that bad but this time, hell no. I've revised everything. I went to my friend's place to do study group until 11 PM. For Analysis I even did ALL the exercises in the textbook and remember all the theorems that usually be used but all I felt was failure. I don't even know how to survive anymore. God help my poor soul.

Picked Up My Parents at the Airport

My parents went to China for business necessities from Tuesday until Saturday. I went home on Thursday so I spent 2 days completely at home (not that I'm complaining though). So my brother and I were supposed to pick them up on Saturday. I was kinda excited because that was the first time I went to the new terminal at the airport; the last time I went there, it was in 2015 when we went on a cruise ship in Singapore (I actually wrote about it here) and it hasn't been renovated. And oh boy is it enormous. We even got lost because my family's driver didn't read the international sign lmao. We got there early that we had to wait one and a half hour until they finally showed up! (once again, not complaining). 

For those who are wondering, my parents got me chocolate bars (lots of it), JBL wireless sport earphone (which is really nice omg), and a nice little backpack for my daily university life (kinda costly so I couldn't say anything but thank you to them).

Anyways, airports are so cool. I'm not the type of person who does a lot of travelling especially by airplane so being on an airport is a rare opportunity for me lmaoooo kinda exaggerating, but also true. Gah, I wish I could go abroad anytime soon...

WELL............SPEAKING OF WHICH,

Weekly Post #4: Life-Ruining and Heartbreaking Things

Hi, my name is Amelia and I'm writing this out of procrastination.

---

Huh, you guessed it? lmao I'm pretty I've guessed it waaay before I started. Yeah, you see, I stopped writing like on week 4? I didn't have anything to write tbh other than huge fangirling over Maze Runner: The Death Cure and I'm pretty sure the 'Weekly Posts' is not for weeping over the death of my favorite character.

The next week, same problem. Didn't know what to write. And I recall it was the first week of university so my head was too wrapped up around it.

And then I kinda forgot about writing.

Up until now, at least.

Weekly Post #3: What A Ride

Hi, my name is Amelia and, quoting Dan, I constantly surprise myself with how low I can get in life, instead of YouTube.

-----

Me again back at it again with the third weekly post. This week has been a rollercoaster for me. Just want to tell you that this all comes in a chronological order so it really felt like a roller coaster.


Day Out with Old Friends

I went to the cinema with my high school friends (wow very social much exciting). We watched The Greatest Showman!!! It was amazing. I got chills from every number on the movie. I haven't listened to the soundtrack album because I'm. Not. Ready. And I don't think I will ever be.

After that, we did some shopping, eating, gossiping, playing arcade games, and finally went home. All the money I've saved for the past 2 weeks was well-spent that evening.


Finally Opened Up about My GPA to My Parents?

Y'all remember me talking about my GPA in the first weekly post, right? Here's the thing...

I failed 2 classes.

And I haven't told my parents about the other one. They only knew I failed physics. And this is where it went downhill... I kept it as a secret, as I already knew the solution to my problem. But then I would always be lying when they asked about my GPA. I never hide something to my parents, and this was a huge problem for me because I started to stay away from them and shut myself out. I'm a mess when I do that. 

I didn't even cry--I couldn't. I kept telling myself that if I cry, then I truly lose and I'll never get up. Because of shutting-myself-out situation, especially with my parents, I felt like I was crawling into depression, again. It wasn't good. All the negative thoughts were flooding in my brain. Too many 'what if's, bad scenarios that happened in my thoughts. 

It was extremely difficult. I did that for 12 days. Since day 7 I've tried to open up but I couldn't find the right moment. There's no way we were having fun and I suddenly blurted out "so actually I didn't pass 2 classes, sorry". They never actually asked me, so it was kinda hard to open up.

And then... It was a fine evening. My parents were just coming home from work. After like an hour or so I was chilling with my dad when he asked the ultimate question,

"How's your GPA?"

And, I kid you not, I cried like a mess. I told him I didn't pass another different class. He said, it's okay, maybe it was hard, but it's okay. I also told my mom like a few minutes later and it was much easier.

I was SO relieved that day. Well, not completely, but I think I'll survive.


Driver's License!!!

Yep, move on from my GPA, I actually got my driver's license this week!!! It was cool and rainy, that's all I got to say. I can't actually grasp the fact that I'm a fully adult and I can totally feel the weight of responsibility.


Weird Online Carpool Experience

Well after I took care of my driver's license, long story short, my parents ordered a car for my youngest brother at home because we had things to do but we couldn't go back to house; we couldn't make it in time. So we did and we got a driver which was our neighbor. It was fine and all until we got a message saying,

"Don't play games with neighbors"

LMAOOOO WHAT EVEN my dad lost it immediately! He called him and they were arguing for so long. I've never seen my dad did that. It was insane.


Weekly Obsession

I started watching Sense8, at last. It's good, exactly like everyone says! Deserves 9 out of 10. For music, I recently found a song called Turn Back Time by Daniel Schulz and it's a freaking bop and a half. I also can't stop playing the soundtrack album of The Greatest Showman. It was a good week for my ears as they were fully blessed.

-----

This week has been cool, the only thing is I wish I could write more as I have a lot of things to write but I'm busy watching series lmao okay bye


WEEK 3: Done

Weekly Post #2: Movie Night, Arcade Game, and... fangirl stuff

Hi, my name is Amelia and I use laughing as a coping mechanism in case I get hurt at my own jokes.

-----

It's week two of 2018 and I'm bored as hell sitting at home doing nothing. Like. I'm not joking. All I did was getting up after 11 AM, eating, and going back to bed lmao what is my life.


Movie Night

I went to the cinema with my mom to see Insidious: The Last Key. It's not even scary? Not many jumpscares but the one at the police station though--I shit myself, kid you not. Literally 5 people walked out and I believe they never came back.

But for real, the audience is waaay more interesting than the movie.

1. A man talking on his cellphone for 3 minutes in one of the most quiet scene of the movie. It's just straight-off annoying! He even dared to use a normal voice which was, in this case, really loud and people already told him whether to lower his voice, turn the phone off or just go out if it's really that important and guess what he did? None of them! Can't believe there's some people who are that ignorant and I'm not gonna give two shits about them.
2. A baby crying. Honestly this is worse than the first one; if not worst. It's a horror movie, for god's sake. The baby would cry and scream whenever there's a tiny jumpscare and GOD for moms with babies out there, if you want to see a horror movie PLEASE get a babysitter first. I believe it's not just me who's disturbed by it; I heard people shushing quietly but I don't know, maybe they also feel bad? 
3. Another ignorant man who sat two seats beside my mom. This guy wore shoes which probably a bit bigger on the front of his foot? So, quoting my mom, he constantly moved his feet and unconsciously kicked the seat in front of him. This poor man had enough and told him to stop moving but the big foot guy felt like he did nothing wrong because he didn't deliberately kick the seat. Dude, it's not about who's right or wrong, just let people enjoy the movie without getting his seat kicked.

At least this experience is way better than the last time I saw a movie with my mom--there was an earthquake (22/12/2017). Beat that, 2018.
