or, how I awkwardly have silly crushes on characters who often die in the end and/or are emotionally unavailable (yes, I know that, being fictional, they don't feel any emotions, I know they don't exist. I'm not insane, my mother had me tested.)

  • 2025
    • Alucard (Hellsing Ultimate) - and I didn't even wait to finish the anime before admitting that his wicked smile is living rent free in my mind
    • Hwang In-ho (Squid Game) - So… this time my crush is basically just about looks. Maybe he seems cold-blooded, maybe a bit enigmatic, but let’s be real—what’s got me hooked is how ridiculously handsome he is 🤭

  • Discomfort is okay.
  • "Fake it till you make it"
  • "Do the scary thing first, and get scared later."
  • Be gentle, always. Every one likes to hear what's good about them.
  • Mind your own journey.
  • Always be rational: you are the master of your mind.
  • If it's something you can't control, then it's not allowed to make you feel anxious.
  • If it comes, let it. If it goes, let it.
  • Remember: we are not afraid of the thing, we are afraid of our the idea of that thing.
  • Rest is a reward.
  • The ego is the enemy.
  • Find yourself and be that.
  • Be consistent with who you are.
