Time does in fact heal wounds.

 *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚Hi Ducklings˚₊‧✩*ੈ༻☆༺˚ ₊‧✩*ੈ 

On March 10th of this year I wrote a piece discussing my teenage years, battle with suicidal ideations/attempts and how once I got the opportunity to achieve my dream I started second d guessing if it was truly the right decision for me. 

Do the flowers bloom?

Do the flowers bloom, or do they inch closer to their death? Since I was young I have always felt an impending sense of doom with age. Although I can deny the cause, everything since I was 13 has circled around the night with the pills. I think the thought of me being dead by 15, then 16 then 17, always clouded how I felt about my age. Each birthday was just a symbol of failure in my one goal, a goal that is no more but forever in my mind. This neglect of living has led to my life being as blank as my bedroom walls, but why would I decorate? Nothing can ever be good enough to fulfil the feeling that just can't seem to leave me and everything's temporary. But it isn’t. I told myself for years that even if I did live, I'd leave my atmosphere and be magically healed, but at my first chance of escape I had it taken away which has left my only option for a year to be in the same position I was promised refuge of. Now, I have an opportunity to leave and I’m unsure. After constantly fighting, wishing and praying for it, my chance has come and I don’t know if I want it anymore. Am I too comfortable in my situation, or am I simply just afraid of the change now that it’s a possibility again.


Currently, it has now been 5 months since I wrote it and I am forever grateful that I didn't let my doubts control my decision as I am actively living my dream.

My Own Pace

 *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚Hi Ducklings˚₊‧✩*ੈ༻☆༺˚ ₊‧✩*ੈ 

I can't be the only one who used to feel a bit left behind by my peers because i'm 18 and I have never dated, kissed or done anything in a romantic sense but I can tell y'all that I've been able to move past it by changing my mentality!


I realized that I don't need to change my pace and what I do and do not want just because my peers are doing it, which is why I think no scroll Sundays are really going to helping with a mentality change where I stay in my own lane!


have you guys ever felt like this? lets talk about it in my chat box!

Reading

   *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚Hi Ducklings˚₊‧✩*ੈ༻☆༺˚ ₊‧✩*ੈ

Since I've started having wayyyy too much time since summer has started I decided to get into reading recreationally (like I don't read enough being a communications student) which is what this page will be about!

No Scroll Sundays🧘🏽‍♀️

*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚Hi Ducklings˚₊‧✩*ੈ༻☆༺˚ ₊‧✩*ੈ

With social media platforms being designed to induce dopamine triggers and other physiological triggers for endless scrolling (fletcher,2024) it is increasingly important for us to lessen the time we spend on these apps which is why I've started no scroll Sundays. My first Sunday was on August 2nd 2026 and although I successfully spent 2 hours and 41 minutes on my phone I spent entirely too much time on my iPad and MacBook... Which is why next Sunday in order to avoid making up the time doing nonsense I am going to try and do more offline activities such as crosswords, reading and sudoku!
