updates on my sanity

Today, I’m writing a blog to understand what’s a blog (i’m still sane, you can trust me). google says its basically an informal diary entry, so i’ve been correct about that. i’ve got lots of thoughts/ideas gushing through my mind right now, i will try to write them as sequentially as possible. i’m thinking of not using ai to enhance my posts, for this one and maybe for upcoming posts as well. lets talk about the things that have inspired me this week. first one that comes to my mind is, 2pretty tumblr girl. trust me she is the REAL IT girl. she has the mindset that i envision to have for myself. if you’re a girl, i would totally recommend you to check her out, her posts are so inspiring, motivating, uplifting and every other word that is synonymous with those. today i picked up a few (2) books from college library, natural language processing with transformers for my mindmeld personal project (disgusting name, yes) and designing data intensive applications. im looking forward to reading them during my 4th semester holidays. oh did i tell you? i also made a 2pretty girl inspired monthly routine/schedule (bomb!) :

please feel free to roast my schedule or share your thoughts on how to improvise it. also i sincerely hope i follow this TT, cause i basically am screwed if i don’t and you know its pretty followable if u ask me compared to the ones that i made few weeks ago (which i swore myself that i’ld follow, um anyway). i still have got one exam left, on date warehousing and mining, have got to bang my head for it. im also planning to blog everyday this month, after i complete that exam to keep track of my productivity (doesn’t that sound fancy, aw). so i guess that is all up with me for now (guess that gush was momentary). wait one last thing, my first ever blog has got 6 views (yayyy), don’t know if that’s real though.
thanks for reading bye
