Omg its has been about 5 months since i last wrote. I told myself i want to journal once every week. Ok, its ok. Don't beat myself up for it ok. I am here now and i really do hope to write and reflect more. I also want to read more, draw more, and maybe be by myself more.
Wow also today i learnt that i could just press "shift + return" to get the space thingy! How cool! Hahaha.
Anyway, last week has been tough. I thought that i meant well but sometimes maybe the way i put it across just really dont sound nice. Am I really being unappreciative? I really do appreciate him a lot and i want this r/s to last. Its not easy because he expects a lot from me. He wants understanding and empathy... i want to give it to him but its really really not easy when he complains so often and is so anxious about so many things. I get impatient and this is really not nice of me. I need to learn to take deep breathes and calm down before reacting to him.
Understand that he is someone who is generally more anxious than others. He wants to keep his loved ones safe and so he tends to be very careful and anxious about hygiene and health. He is anxious because he cares. I need to be more patient and think in his shoes (with his anxiety and thoughts) before i get upset or impatient.
I am glad that HBL is here and my RICS is over today!!!! It is like a huge rock off my chest! Feel so relieved and finally like can rest hahaha. Oh but i do need to call my students to check on their wellbeing and make sure all of them are doing well in the HBL.
I hope to reflect more and be happy!
