8/6/2023 - Mimi’s Diary

I've been hanging out in the LAS room for almost six months now, and I don't really know what to do next.

I feel like I don't want to share with people anymore because I've reached a limit in my relationships. A limit of interference and overexposure.

I regret not doing more things earlier, like studying abroad. I don't understand how, as someone who's always in the middle of the swimming pool, I have to spend so much time catching up with those at the top instead of practicing to achieve things that are more suitable for me.

Today, I registered for an account to apply for a master's program in the Netherlands. Actually, I dream big. I want to get an EM scholarship, I want to study at top schools, etc., but it will require a lot of time and focus. I'm still waiting for information from AAS, even though I know I'll be rejected from the preliminary round. I even applied for MAECI.

I'm still practicing my writing, feeling optimistic. Practice makes perfect. In addition, I have new perspectives on speaking. Maybe I need to focus more on questions from others and I need to react quickly. I'm naturally slow to react, haha.

Only a few more days until I say goodbye to the LAS room. I still need to move on, improve myself, skills, to earn more money, to prepare for studying abroad.

To earn money, I have to work hard. I need to sell better, focus on promoting my tailoring shop. Try to get a high IELTS score to train others.

Oh, from tomorrow, I'll pay attention to people's conversations to take notes and find the style of everyday speaking.

Alright, I'm going to bed now.

MY WORK HISTORY

MY WORK HISTORY According to the to-do list that I made some days before, the second entry below that of taking the IELTS test is job hunting , that's the reason why I write about this topic today. In this post, I'm going to write about my childhood dreams, jobs that I used to experience in the past and my career aspiration for a better future. My childhood dreams I'm nothing special. At least that is what I have realized at the age of 26, but winding the timeline back nearly 20 years, I really knew nothing, I didn't see the truths about us, humans, about how tiny we are compared to the universe. I thought I was special and unique and I would become someone important some days, someone really really great. I had dreamed of becoming a prime minister, a writer, a journalist or an English teacher. I did make it in some fields and still, what I haven't achieved gradually diminished along with the devastation that the adult world has caused to me. My choices An...

FATAL ATTRACTION

Today I watched the notorious Fatal Attraction (1987) starring Glenn Close and Michael Douglas. The movie is that same kind of erotic thriller which was quite popular back to the day. In these movies, sex is always the main drive of crime and obviously we have seen so many men and women on screen recreated all the scariest incidents happened by the loss of control of some psychopaths. I was one of them. If you want to know about my past love story, I'm happy to tell and admit that I was a psychopath. I was really mad and out of control. I tortured my ex lover every night and I didn't care about the consequences I would face in the near future. I haunted her like a ghost crying everyday asking for a reconciliation. So pathetic I was. Watching Fatal Attraction, I felt like I was seeing a bad joke on myself which is so sardonic. I can't believe I did behave the same way as Alex did. I was like out of my mind and made a fool of myself. I totally understand the borderline p...

So we're all damaged huh?

How damaged am I? It might take you 10 years more... You're too young, even younger than your age. That's what he told me after we entwined our bodies in each other's arms, and also after half a year without seeing each other's face. I've got to admit, I need to be honest with myself that he was one of the reasons for my constantly surging depression. I had climbed up every single step to escape from the dark basement of suffering, but now once again, that shadow being has reached the tip of my toe, slowly lured my mind, misled me to lose my wisdom, to succumb to the haze of lust and longing. This is my blog, every piece of stories that has made up my life after nearly 10 years leaving the warmth and protection of my family, so I want to be the truest, most honest version of myself here. I don't want to hide anything here. And in fact, it's been a long time since I last updated it. Therefore, I know, I should write this story out. I started to have se...
