Privilege

2019.04.15

Today I had trouble waking up at a set time. I did a little research and it turns out that it’s to do with Rem and Non-rem sleep. I should wake up at non rem sleep when the sleep is less deep. I should make my sleep time like 0.5. I should also put my phone far away so that I actually get out of the bed and walk.

I also run but I was a bit rushed. I should always try to be ready. This is why strict scheduling and time management is important.

The seminar finished without me having to say anything so it was quite a relief. But I really want to understand what we’re talking about, so I’ll read each chapter everyday, take notes, and make a little note. I should try to question everything because that’s the only way I can prepare for sudden questions posed by the professor.

I should also try to see what industries there are for job hunting.

Again, I’m excited to go to China. I’m the type of person who can’t do what she doesn’t want to do, so I try to think all the boring and difficult classes I’m taking serve a better purpose which is, for now, to go to Beijing as a field trip! LOL. The power of love.

I feel like I forget being kind to others sometimes. I just wanna spread kindness to love even to those who don’t really deserve it.

Watching TED talks helps.

辛いのは、自分がどれだけ恵まれた環境にいるかというのを忘れてしまうこと。私はお金に困ったこともなく、全部与えられている。今まで自分が努力で勝ち取って来たと思ったものは全て環境に与えられたもの。私の父が学費を払わなければ大学にも行けない。自分をきちんと律して、お金を稼ぐとはどれほど大変なことなのかを理解したい。本当に自分がどれだけ恵まれているかを理解せず、周りに流され、後悔することをもたくさんしてしまった。これからは最大限に努力して、自分に与えられた分以上に社会に還元できるようにしたい。真面目すぎると言われても気にせず、自分に与えられたタスクをこなしたい。お金に関しても無駄遣いせず、必要なものだけを買いたい。

誘惑に囲まれる中、自律を徹底したい。
