Fragments in my mind

1. I added 'proactive' to my vocabulary list today. I realized that sometimes, I just react. I hope to be less reactive and more proactive.

2. It has been extremely hot in Shanghai recently. Even iced coffee couldn't help me get fully alert. And even in an air-conditioned room, I still feel drowsy at noon.

3. I uploaded a video yesterday and planned to write an entry to introduce it. Then, in the evening, the time I was supposed to write here, I was not in the mood, and said to myself, 'I shouldn't push myself according to this kind of weather.' What a great excuse.

The video is about some groups of fish swimming in the theme park I visited two weeks ago. You can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BBgMNPV1rtg


1. 今天把“proactive”加进了我的单词本。我意识到有时候,我只是对外界做出反应而已。我希望少一些被动,多一些主动。

2. 最近上海太热了。冰咖啡也不能让我完全清醒。即使在有空调的房间里,中午的我仍然感到昏昏欲睡。

3. 我昨天上传了一个视频,并打算写一篇文章来介绍它。到了晚上,也就是我应该在这里写东西的时候,没在状态。我对自己说:“都这种天气了,我不该强迫自己呀。”多好的借口啊。

这个视频是关于一些鱼群在我之前参观的主题公园里游来游去的。你可以在这里看到:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BBgMNPV1rtg

"Couldn't help me get fully alert" felt a bit clunky, so I switched it to "couldn't fully wake me up," which is a more common phrasing.

The "around noon" part makes the timing feel more precise, but not too rigid.

"You can see it here" became "You can check it out here" to make it sound a bit more conversational and inviting. OR: "You can see it here" became "You can view it here" to keep it clear and still inviting, but a little more formal.

The title "Reflections and Excuses" sums up both the personal insights you had (like adding "proactive" to your vocabulary) and the classic excuse for not writing because of the heat. It’s a mix of self-reflection and the everyday way we justify procrastination.

I added 'proactive' to my vocabulary list today.

Instead of saying "I hope to be less reactive," I changed it to "I want to be less reactive," which sounds a bit more direct and intentional. It also helps emphasize your personal goal.

Then, in the evening, the time I was supposed to write here, I was not in the mood, and said to myself, 'I shouldn't push myself according to this kind of weather.'


Then, in the evening, the time when I was supposed to write here, I was not in the mood, and said to myself, 'I shouldn't push myself according to this kind of weatherwhen the weather is like this.' Then, in the evening when I was supposed to write here, I was not in the mood and said to myself, 'I shouldn't push myself when the weather is like this.'

Too many commas in this sentence it doesn't read nicely. I rewrote the first part to not use a comma. "I was not in the mood, and said to myself" - Don't use a comma when the subject of the sentence is the same in both phrases. Not sure exactly what you were trying to say in the quotation marks but I don't think "according" works here, according will usually be used to refer to information sources, for example : ''according to my friend I shouldn't push myself during this kind of weather".

Then, in the evening, the time I was supposed to write here, I was not in the mood, and said to myself, 'I shouldn't push myself according to this kind ofbecause the weather is bad.' Then, in the evening, the time I was supposed to write here, I was not in the mood, and said to myself, 'I shouldn't push myself because the weather is bad.'

grueling weather --> 艰苦的天气

Then, in the evening, twhe timen I was supposed to write here, I was non’t in the mood, and said. I told myself, '"I shouldn't push myself according to this kind of weather.'in weather like this." Then, in the evening, when I was supposed to write, I wasn’t in the mood. I told myself, "I shouldnt push myself in weather like this."

I changed "the time I was supposed to write here" to "when I was supposed to write" for smoother flow, and rephrased "I shouldn't push myself according to this kind of weather" to "I shouldn’t push myself in weather like this" to make it sound more natural and fluid.

What a great excuse.

I changed "is about" to "shows" for a more direct description of what the video actually does. "Swimming in the theme park" was adjusted to "swimming at the theme park" for a more natural phrasing.
