Welcome back to my blog, everyone! I had a lot to say, but my memory's a bit of a mess right now, so I’m not entirely sure where to start or what to say. But hey, it's my blog, so let’s dive right in!
Campus life is buzzing, and I’ve really fallen for my calculus class. Who knew math and I would become BFFs? After a rocky high school relationship, we're now in a committed friendship. I’m starting to see math as the universe’s secret language. It’s like I’m decoding the mysteries of existence, one equation at a time!
My English class is keeping me on my toes. We’re writing papers about our literacy journeys, which means my brain is a constant whirlpool of thoughts and assignments. Between classes and homework, I’ve been spending a lot of time in the library. It feels like a cozy home away from home, even though it's a bit of a trek from the main campus. The peaceful atmosphere and the fresh air make it my go-to refuge.
On a different note, I've been reading "The Warrior Girl on Earth." While the story has some cool elements, it hasn’t quite hooked me yet. Maybe it’ll make more sense as I keep reading.
So, after all my classes wrapped up around 2 PM, I was at the library, planning to head somewhere else. I checked the campus app and noticed there was an event happening later that day on the fifth floor of LBJ, where they were offering free coffee. Naturally, I decided to check it out.
When I arrived, it turned out to be a gathering for Deaf students—a space for them to connect, socialize, and have fun. I was fascinated by the vibrant atmosphere and took the opportunity to learn a bit of sign language.
The event was truly eye-opening. Despite some minor hiccups (because, hey, nobody’s perfect), it was incredibly heartwarming. It made me appreciate the many blessings in my life and realize that people can find joy and contentment in their circumstances, no matter what. Here I was, feeling lonely and bogged down by trivial worries, but witnessing this community’s happiness and resilience was a powerful reminder. It helped me put things into perspective and made my own feelings of loneliness seem a bit less significant.
Sadly, there’s been a somber moment too. A fellow Nepali student recently passed away. I didn’t know him well, but I’ve heard he was a genuinely good person. It’s a reminder of how precious life is and how we never really know how much time we have. It’s like we’re all on a cosmic clock, and when our time’s up, it’s up. This makes me even more grateful for the life I have and the people around me.
On a lighter note, let me tell you about the Bubble Man. He’s this awesome guy who hangs around the student center, blowing bubbles and spreading positive vibes. He’s like a human rainbow of encouragement, proclaiming, “We believe in you! You’re destined for greatness!” It was the highlight of my day—nothing like a bubble-filled pep talk to lift your spirits!
Anyway, I think I need to start taking notes on all the little adventures and moments so I can remember them better for these blog posts. For now, this is what’s on my mind. Stay tuned for more updates, and thanks for reading!
I almost forgot to share this with you! There was a campus fair at LBJ, and I had just 30 minutes to check it out with some friends I bumped into there. The fair had a bunch of cool booths with all sorts of freebies and information. We explored a bit, learning about history, security, and more, and I picked up a cute butterfly pin, a water bottle, pen and key holder.
One of the week’s highlights was this funny little incident. I really needed a smaller water bottle to carry around campus, because my Stanley bottle is too bulky and heavy, and the other one I had wasn’t great. So, I thought I’d check out the fair for options. I spotted a booth, filled out a form, and got to spin a prize wheel. To my amazement, one of the prizes was a super cute water bottle!
I couldn’t believe it, I was genuinely thrilled. I was kind of praying, "Please let me win a water bottle," and guess what? I actually did! It felt like such a lucky break, and I was so grateful I almost teared up. It was like the universe was sending me a little sign that everything was going to be okay. (delusional is all I say)
