I miss your blog. Wherever you are, I hope you’re having a great day!
Hey, thank you, I'll be back soon I hope. I'm having a really hard time battling my CFS but I really do miss it here.
Personally, I've been going between a 4 and a 6 for the past 2 months.
Your daily dose of cat memes
No way! That's so cool wtf

It really does work tysm!!!
Okay I’m currently furious that migraines are often so blindly easy to treat and I had to find this out myself at the age of 26 when I’ve been to a neurologist since I was 11 lol so I’m about to teach you two neat and fast little tricks to deal with pain!
The first is the sternocleidomastoid muscle, or the SCM muscle.
This big red section is responsible for pain around the eye, cheekbone, and jaw, as well as some temple pain. Literally all you have to do is angle your head down a little, angle it away from the side that hurts, and then you can gently pinch and rub that muscle. I find it best to start at the bottom and travel upwards. The relief is so immediate! You can increase pressure as you feel comfortable doing so.
Here is a short and easy video showing this in action
The second is a fast and easy stretch that soothes your vagus nerve, which is the nerve responsible for calming you down. The vagus nerve, for those unfamiliar, is stimulated by deep breathing such as yawning, sighing, singing, or taking a deep breath to calm your anger in a tense situation.
You can stretch this out by sitting up as straight as possible (this does not have to be perfect to work) and interlacing your fingers. Put your hands on the back of your head with your thumbs going down the sides of your neck and, while keeping your face forward, look all the way to one side with just your eyes. Hold that until you feel the urge to breathe deeply or yawn, or until you can tell there’s a change. Then do the same thing on the other side. When you put your arms down, you should clearly be able to turn your head farther in both directions. If the first session doesn’t get rid of your migraine, rest and repeat as many times as necessary. I even get a little fancy with it and roll my eyes up and down along the outer edge sometimes to stretch as much as I can.
If you need a visual here’s a good video on it. I know some of the language they use seems questionable but this is real and simple science and should not be discarded because it’s been adopted by the trendy wellness crowd!
I seriously cannot believe I didn’t hear a word of this from any doctor in my life. Additionally, if you get frequent recurring migraines, you may want to see a dietician. Migraines can be caused by foods containing histamines, lectin, etc. and can also be caused by high blood pressure in specific situations such as exercise, stress, and even sex.
If any of this information helps you I’d love to hear it btw! It’s so so fast and easy to do. Good luck!
Shut up I'm in love.

I thought the cat was about to bite the rooster for a sec. This is too sweet <3
I've been on a holiday, traveling, during the past week hence the lack of study content posted recently. Wish I could have brought you all with me so I'll at least share these beautiful photos from my trip instead.
Have a great new year everyone!
tips for maintaining mental stability when it feels too much
-> don't gaslight yourself into thinking that your feelings are too much. Don't blame yourself for wanting to recharge or distant yourself as well. Whatever you feel is valid. Realize that your emotions are temporary. It is important to feel them and not suppress them but emotions are something that comes and goes. You won't feel that way after some time
-> cut off sensitive topics. Stop checking on the news if it feels too much. Mute or unfollow those who post triggering content. Tell your friends and family members that you don't want to talk about certain topics. It's okay to distant yourself not only from the news but from people/topics you find toxic.
-> rely on safe content instead. Re-read your favorite book or re-watch a show that makes you feel better. Use messengers instead of socials to contact your close ones.
-> sleep. Sleep washes off emotions and can calm you down, and recharge you.
-> invest your time in a hobby. Shift your focus a little. Hobbies that involve physical and/or sensual activity work even better. These can be painting, knitting, gardening, dancing, or singing.
-> go outside. Walk your dog or jog a little. Make your body move and breathe fresh air. Connect with your surroundings, visit your local park or forest.
-> realize what you can do at the very moment to support yourself and your close ones. Do what you can do to prepare yourself for tomorrow, step-by-step.
Take care of yourself 💖🌍

Guys, I swear the source website of this picture had helped me out so much both when I started learning chinese and now!
Link:
I don't usually recommend pinterest to find useful websites but I did find this website there somehow lol. Istg half the links of pinterest are unavailable or something.
She looks like an actual fairy!
Oh, ffs! Why are all these Only Fans profiles with empty accounts following me all of a sudden!? During the past week I've had to block at least 50 of these stupid accounts!!! I'm getting so fed up. This hasn't happened to me before, just these past few days.
If you know what to do please tell me!
These is the world's cutest, interactive, and realistic play sets imo. Where was this when I was a child?!
toy convenience store, toy drycleaner, toy kitchen, toy outpatient service by 百变小丸子
This was my study set up 7 months ago. .
I'm quite glad I've changed it since then but I guess it was pretty cute.
(Feel free to tag me or something with your desk/study setups if you'd like, cause I need inspo lol)
Mandarin Chinese restaurant vocabulary. I found much of the vocabulary these posts really useful for when I ordered food yesterday!

Ok, please don't tell me I'm the only one that finds the 2nd example funny; it's just so random and unnecessary. (This was quite useful though, nonetheless)
IT'S NOW THE HOLIDAYS AND I HAVE TIME TO POST STUFF AGAIN, WOOOH!
So yeah, I plan on posting a minimum of 3 posts a day starting tomorrow. Words can't express how much I've missed you all the past few weeks!
I did dome sewing, bought new Mildliners (I have a stationary addiction), and pretended to study while really just taking a picture of my biology homework from 2 years ago and sneaking it in this post to appear productive.
大家好，好久不见! Hey everyone, long time no see! I just wanted to come on here now to apologize for not posting much during the past few weeks. As I've previously mentioned, the end of year exams and workload I've been tackling haven't given me much time to focus on making Tumblr posts, however, summer break is just around the corner for me so I'll finally have time to post as much as I want! I then aim to post at least 1 original post a day along with many other interesting and helpful things I find and want to share with you all. Good luck with your studies everyone, we've got this!<3<3<3
