ok since my sleeping schedule is basically upside down right now let’s pretend I’m writing this a week or 2 ago So, I usually wake up around 9 am, no alarm whatsoever. so i entirely depend on myself. Anyways next i would have to make myself some breakfast, but wait, that doesn’t happen, i never have breakfast so i just brush my teeth instead, fast forward like an hour, rpf ausia event is over i might have attended the, maybe not who knows, i got bored and decided to take a long walk for easily a few hours. After getting back home i take a shower and then prepare lunch, while having lunch i also check socials and stuff like that to keep track of everything let’s pretend it’s something like 3-4 pm right now, so i think I’m forgetting something. Oh right! I actually have to go to college at night and i haven’t prepared anything. oh god oh no what do i do. okay, i decided to read up a little bit and got bored eventually so not going prepared at all. I grab my backpack, put a jacket or something and just walk to college. The schedule is something like 17:30-22:30. When i arrive early first thing i do is buy a cup of tea or coffee, it’s super cheap and it doesn’t taste like poison so it’s a win. when getting to the classroom i try to find my friend and guess what, he just texted me, he skipped class again, so i just get to a seat and grab some books from the bagpack, while looking for the books i realize i left most of them at home (yes this happened) anyways fast forward 5 hours, i just left college (boring as hell), and wow it’s super dark now what do i do should i take a bus (safe way!!) or actually walk, ehh let’s walk why not im invincible, somehow i manage to get home at around 11 pm, so to make this day an actual good day i prepare the best dinner that you can imagine and that is a depressing bowl of rice. After having that great meal i check socials again chat with friends a bit, clean up the dishes maybe even watch a movie or a tv show, and go to bed around 1 am and try to sleep

I’m in my senior of high school, so my schedule is very packed right now. But my school is still online, and my classes aren’t until noon, which gives me a little flexibility. I usually wake up at 10 am and grab something to eat for breakfast. Then I log on to Discord to look through chats and reply to any messages. After that, my first Zoom class starts, so I get ready to be in hell for a couple of hours. I usually get back on Discord during breaks between classes and my lunch break. I’m done with my classes at 2 pm, and if there’s an EU event, I get ready for that. If not, I move on to my actual assignments, which usually take a couple more hours. I sometimes sneak in a little college research here. I’m actually leaning towards taking a gap year, but I haven’t fully decided yet (I’m running out of time, I know… :sob: ) When school is over, I finally get to relax. During this time, I enjoy listening to music, playing video games, watching my favorite shows on Netflix, reading a book, baking/cooking, and going out with my friends. After I eat dinner, I log onto Discord again, which is when I’m online the most. I attend the US event if there’s one that night, or I just hang out and talk in the main chat. I also try to recruit during this time or draft a post for an upcoming event. I’m usually on Discord until 2 am, even if I’m doing other things online. I have a terrible sleep schedule that I’m trying to fix lol. Honestly, I’m also terrible at time management, but I think I’ve found a balance between RPF and irl.
