Unimportant Midnight Ranting



Hi all, this is me, Feli, writing randomly while laying on my bed and do nothing except writing this blog.

I know this might sounds unimportant, but as I write this down, I supposed to do my 2000 words essay for my mid-term. But I do not know why, I cannot find the inspiration and motivation to write some more.

Instead, I ask myself. Why do I do this? For what sake? For an A from my lecturer? And the most important question is: Is that A really matter? For my GPA? Will this be useful in the future? Who the hell gonna read a dead-liner's essay, whose purpose is only to please its lecturer? Ain't nobody got time for that I guess.

Suddenly I remember, earlier this evening, I came to a meeting and the speaker said "Your GPA means nothing later in this jungle called life". That hit me, HARD. My realization started to sink in, that GPA means nothing after this. So why should I achieve something that will not mean anything? Will this struggle of making 2000 words essay gonna be worth it at the end?

Recalling this night event, suddenly I know why I cannot find my passion to write that fcking essay anymore.

Maybe because it is not important.

Stress in a Capitalistic World, Part II : Value in Society, Value in Yourself

Most of the articles I relate to call what I'm experiencing a "burnt-out". It's different from feeling tired after working 24 hours on a useless paper or homework. It's not something that can be alleviated with relaxation. Although the term is mostly use to describe fatigue simply caused by overwork, some psychologists disagree and so do I. The easiest way to analyse this is finding the root of why people push themselves to prioritize work over all else anyway? Why can't they relax, meditate, take a vacation, and why are all those solutions  useless ? It's because they literally can't . If they do, the attempts will only make them worsen their anxiousness of possible repercussions. There's this compulsive desire, an overarching anxiety that whatever you do, however you improve, you are never satisfied. Got a promotion? There's a higher position. Became the CEO? You have to expand the business. And so on, and so on, and it never stops. And ...

Why I Started Writing Again

PROMPTS :: Your writing journey. Since I started high school I stopped writing, I got too busy preparing for the 6 rounds of exams I ended up taking. And when I started Uni, things just got busier. Such a big difference from my junior high days, I wrote 4-7 journal entries for English class, much like this one. And I found that I miss writing, though I couldn’t say that my pieces are anything life changing to the readers, but to me it means something. Because with writing I get to say things I don’t usually get to say out loud. Be it because I was too shy, I was insecure about my position, I might hurt the person I was speaking to, or I haven’t got the words at the time. Writing gave me so much freedom in terms of access to my own brain. Because when I write I’m usually not doing anything else, and I get to focus on my own thought. Like having a conversation with yourself. And this opens up so many sides of yourself you don’t normally get to know. It’s liberating in a w...
