Hey Aireens, have you ever asked yourself why you feel like you only care about yourself and not anyone else? Once you find that answer you can change. When they say the truth will set you free it applies to a lot of things and in this case, if you find what the answer is you can better handle what it is you want to change or in other words…[Read more]

But i will try to use your words to look into a different perspective!! Thank youu

@aireens every single uni students feels the same way. The thing is can you see yourself using that degree in the future?
In my case I changed to another degree (and waisted 3 years..) but I was dumb in a way, I could have finished and take the one I am taking now, like you are saying. So my suggestion is finish the degree you have now and if…[Read more]

@aireens I agree with aprxl, definetly go for books. If you have a good library around you take a morning or afternoon and choose a couple of books, You can even take them home maybe and take some photocopies and then underline important stuff with markers. That’s how I passed my very hard History exam in 12th grade and also my literature exam in…[Read more]

thanks oli~
but yeah wikipedia is not a reliable source unfortunately

yess libraries are helpful but since the psychology program is still developing at our university its still pretty limited esp with the journals and stuff :\ but ill still give it a go again! thankss~~!!

We all have to support each other with love, compassion and care during such difficult times @aireens, going forward, we all have to stick together, I’m always here for you Aireens (hugs)

@aireens
(the following is super gibberish, but i believe someone genius like yourself, who is sincere to themselves. Would be easily able to extract positive wisdom from the wall of gibberish i type below XD . So first of all… ‘sorry’…. and.. secondly… ‘all the best! I hope and pray that what I type below… helps you in some…[Read more]

@aireens
oh and another thing! If you believe you already are investing in what they care about… then I must inform you that, if you are investing your time to help them solve their problems, or if you invest your time to do what is good for them, or if you invest your time to make them laugh… then that is not the same as investing into the…[Read more]

@aireens
(another comment…. super sorry for not completing everything in just one message XD )
I would also like to mention that… My personal approach is that, I invest in other people’s goals (or what they care about) depending on the time and resources that I have. (if I go beyond that… if I go beyond the time and resources that I have…[Read more]

I’ve been there, girls tend to love causing drama with the tiniest things possible. I don’t like them judging others every sec they get too, recently some of my friends did that and they’re so inconsiderate, always counting on me being okay with anything, and only finds me when they physically need help with something . Few weeks ago they’ve…[Read more]

@oli thank you oliii~ yeah i think we really should but i think were still too immature to actually do that but im hoping we grow from this and be functioning adults that actually communicate. have a nice day oli~

@sigmasuccour
aaah thank you! while i was reading i was saying a lot of “oh shiit” because i was realizing that i may have contributed in putting myself in this situation! i guess i never really thought of actually focusing on the things they love or care because sometimes its not something i would care about and i also feel like they dont…[Read more]

@xtiffytaffystar
im glad you let them go, they really sound like a bunch of toxic friends x_x. aww thank youu teefy~ hope we find better and deserving friends soon!

You will find awesome topics @aireens, try to find something that you enjoy or that interests you, it could be anything like history or science, I’m sure whatever you choose that you will do great Aireens (hugs)

Do you have any particular area of interest for your research work?

initially i wanted to study about (non-experimental research) social anxiety but
now im thinking about students depression coping styles …. i have these ideas but they seem to lack another variable to give it a meaningful point and something to make it unique
…
i keep getting worried about not finding a research instrument or finding …[Read more]

@skimrish

hahaha thanks olii!!

Oh, My bad.
I misinterpreted the meaning of the word ‘research’ because we don’t have these sorts of assignments at our place. As for a topic similar to the ones you mentioned, you can look into John Hatties list of Visual Learning. It lists around 150 factors which can influence a students efficiency. You can bundle it up with a bunch of…[Read more]

It’s great to see you positive and inspiring others @aireens, keep smiling and continue being the compassionate angel that you are, hope you have a brilliant day Aireens, I’m always here for you (hugs)

if you’re an avid gamer or maybe an anime watcher or even just tv and movies it’ll be a lot easier to make new friends online

@aireens
Become a ‘genuine’ friend to other people. And they (some of them) would become ‘genuine’ to you too. That’s my way. (focus on ‘being’ a genuine friend, and don’t focus on ‘having’ genuine friends. That personally works for me.)
Though in reply to that, people say that they already do genuinely fulfill their friendship… but…[Read more]

@Oli

@dearestchelly
yess but i am not quite unfortunate really
@SigmaSuccour
you make it sound so easy! hahah thanks
but honestly whenever i make friends im like the most playful and fun but when we ‘settle down’ i just pull back and become…[Read more]

@aireens
//you make it sound so easy!//
> It is easy because I have been practicing it for a while. Just goes to show that, something that seems difficult today, would become ‘easier’ with practice and consistent application. (like walking, or riding a bicycle << hahaha most welcome
.
By my interpretation, if the issue here is about the…[Read more]

really made me dig deep to answer those questions!
i think it may have something to do with my sexuality, i identify as pansexual and its not really a 100% accepting environment here yet (although my current friends know about it i still dont feel accepted) and i feel like ive always know this is the big reason why eventually i feel detached to…[Read more]

// if i cant find that kind of friend maybe i should be that friend.//
