Tue May 31, 2022 11:00 am

The deadline was discussed to be on May 27, I was given hope when they said we can still submit till 26, I submitted it on 26, and when I submitted my manuscript I was given 56 technical corrections, That I completed on 27 and a few more correction were sent to me two more days after I had completed my manuscript. They could've told me I failed then and there and don't bother with the corrections. But I was still able to complete them regardless

Even if there was some workaround that I graduated from my school, I will look like a spoiled kid. I'm ashamed to even look at my parents and instructors. I don't even know if I can appeal or if there are some organizations in my school to help my case. It's been messing with my head since yesterday. I always failed at the things that matter.
Goals for 2023:

Travel out of the city by myself or with friends:
Jan 28- Jan 29: Company outing

You submitted on the 26th, and were given the option to perform corrections. You completed this and submitted on the 27th - yes?

They then supplied further corrections 2 days after your submission.

At the very least, your grade for the work submitted on the 27th should stand. Was this a passing grade?

Furthermore, there does appear to be some inconsistency here with your Uni providing corrections and then failing the work regardless. Wtf?

I would press forwards with an appeal of this decision dude. But first, what are the options here. Create a list please. I'll start:

A) Push for an appeal, maybe get the work passed, and graduate. Is this the best option?
B) Submit the work next year, so wait a year to graduate. Not ideal, but ultimately this does NOT matter in the long run. You can spend your time hardcore improving yourself, your social skills, dating skills, body, mind, get therapy, heal trauma, get work experience, sharpen your skillset, build your network. For long term success who you are and what is going on inside, your mindset and mental models, work ethic etc matter WAY MORE than piecemeal bullshit like dates of graduation. And a few years into your career no one even cares anymore man. It becomes more about your network and who you know.
C) Do nothing. Stagnate. Let your mental health plummet.

Again, what are the options here? Build a list, I want to see it.

Shame, things like this.

You are a man on a journey, you will make mistakes and you will grow a lot in your life. You are young and at the start of this process. In tough times, shame, our insecurities, all come out. The truth is, in the long run, these factors do not matter. You grow beyond them and achieve more, realise your vision more and more, and become something else.

In this moment, I understand it is tough, you are navigating a volatile moment of adverse outcome, and this is never easy.

Recognise that you must remain stoic in this time, see things logically, and act within your locus of control.

What are your options? Which will you take? Focus on your actions and what you can control.

Regarding looking like a spolied kid - nah, that's not how it works. No one cares. Only you. Your opinion and your sense of how much you love and value yourself is what matters. Put your middle finger up to everyone else. Humans, like all animals, are selfish and also very egoic - people play games and invent stories in their own mind to inflate themselves and diminish others. Fuck them, and fuck your own ego too. Your ego is trying to protect you and is worried about other people's views - understand ego will always keep you right where you are. Safe, not in the fire.

Yes, there are organisations and teams within your school which deal with Academic conduct, complaints, etc. There wil be a School Rep for your School. This is usually a student. Contact them ASAP. You have a personal tutor, a supervisor, etc? Contact them ASAP. Just speak to people, get signposted, find support, and act.

Also dude, it does seem like you pushed up close to this deadline because you have had a lot of shit to deal with - you remarked how trauma was weighing down upon you, things like that. This is very reasonable grounds for an extension dude. That is a serious matter and your school will recognise this.

You do not always fail at the things that matter, you're just human. And on a journey. And in a few years, you will be way more solid as a guy. At 24, I was not able to accomplish many things and was quite fucked up man. This journey will carve you into a success.

Failure is part of life. Rejection is part of life.

An appeal has been submitted to the school, and I have already contacted people who can help. I'm just scared, I don't know if they'll accept it.

D) Continue the appeal, whatever the decision is, the following must happen:
-Build a website where I can post my artwork and architectural renders
-Post once a day for 100 days
-Use it as my portfolio for apprenticeship
-Build it up so that I already have a name in the industry by the time I pass my board exams

E) The head of our department once said that my designs we're only good for video games:
-Create assets for video games using a 3d software
-Maybe create a game of my own

G) Grind and study hard enough to be a top notcher in our board exams

H)All options except C

Option C never crossed my mind

There's no point in giving up on something that I worked so hard on, Thank you @MakingAComeback And @Lord Rey, I have a lot of things to work on and this is just one of them. I have failed in a lot of things but at the same time, I learned a lot.

Yeah, that's the spirit ! :)

I'm glad to read that you're not giving up and that you're going to continue the fight no matter what !

I want to thank @MakingAComeback too because I could never have written great posts like him to motivate people when they're feeling down. He's truly a godsend for these forums !

Build your case and be clear about it. I've read your log, you are dealing with A LOT of trauma man. You are definitely in a position where your Uni needs to consider your mental health needs and an adjustment on that basis. They have a duty of care for you as a student, and your circumstances are sufficient grounds for an adjustment.

You will need to explain how you are working with a therapist, are recovering from trauma, and how this period has been deeply challenging for your mental health, and how despite the work you are doing and your commitment to the thesis, your work has been impacted at this time and you will require additional support.

This is totally reasonable. And within your rights, IMO.

You will be scared, yes, that's natural. This is where you'll need to learn stoicism, which will be a life long practice for you.

Just take the best action, then focus on productive and stimulating mental imput as opposed to anxiously wiling the time away wondering what if.

You'll be OK dude.

I'm relearning blender again, hopefully, I can post some actual architectural pieces soon, My appeal to the school for the consideration of my manuscript is now pending. I pray that they'll accept it soon. I was told that if I was able to graduate, I wouldn't be able to join the ceremony... kinda sucks, but I'll take what I can

Also, people are starting to see my workout progress, like my mother noticing veins in my arms and some of my cousins asking if I go to the gym

Thank you @Lord Rey ! It's good to have an accountability group to keep track of progress, but ooooh boy I do have to keep up

My appeal has reached my instructor, and we are going to have a meeting on Monday, to let me and my fellow students graduate hopefully

In other news, My penis has stopped working, it might be the stress I'm under or the eight times a day fap I used to do back in high school, but whatever it is, It's bad news. I'm considering a genital rehab of some kind but I don't know where to start.

Also, artwork number 2. and I made a backup artwork for the rainy days

If by "stopped working" you mean that you can't get hard anymore, it's surely due to the stress you endured lately. Otherwise, the first thing to do is No Fap and especially NO PORN if you're watching this kind of toxic content.

In any case, keep working and don't let negative thinking overwhelm you !

I tried going out to approach women and suddenly a gay person is coming on to me and trying to lead me to an alley, I was scared because something bad happened to me back in high school that started out like this. I didn't know that I still had trauma from that. I don't think I'll be going out anytime soon

How are you doing? Nothing much happened to me today, but I think I'm getting the hang of rendering my artworks. Quite happy with this one.

I don't blame it. I mean, it has no work to do anyway, hahaha, since I can't get a lady friend :( (at this point of my life). I'm currently re-reading the easy peasy book to just hammer the concepts in my head,

Thanks @Lord Rey !

Today, I met with my Dean and my classmates, who are also struggling, and we need to submit another letter with more valid excuses. I had mental breakdowns and suicidal thoughts. I don't know how to tell the school because "I don't have the proper documents." I don't know what else I can show them.

I just made another artwork to keep my mind off the mess, I made my first animation, and I was happy while making the animation.

Hopefully, there's something good at the end of the tunnel. Maybe even look back with humor on all of this.

I needed to get back on track with my goals; being sad only made the people around me feel down. I took a scenic walk home try to assure myself everything will be okay

Today I approached three women

Well the second lady I "approached" we were in the way of each other. you know the moment when you move left and right and they do the same? yeah that one.

I mostly follow tutorials on youtube this time I added a little creative liberty.

Today, I was so close to approaching a group of people that were mostly comprised of women, and I realized that I don't have any interesting stories to tell strangers, or rather I don't know how to tell them.

I'm proud of being complemented by losing fat, mostly by my aunts. I achieved my goal weight when I was 21 years old, but still have a lot of work to do.
