Ok so basically I was pretty unserious during most of 11th and 12th grade. I only started taking studies seriously during the last few months of 12th, and honestly it was nowhere near enough.

I got my board results a few days back and scored 78.9%. I know that's not terrible, but it also isn't very good and I'm really disappointed in myself. My dream college was VIT and I obviously wasn't able to get in. I did get into Christ, which I know is still a good college and probably around the same level academically, but VIT had more of the "dream college" factor for me because my sister is currently attending due to which I know all the benefits.

Recently I saw a post about DR time ratios and people shifting to past points in their lives, and it gave me an idea.

I don't want to restart from 11th or relive my entire school life again, but what do you guys think about shifting to a reality where I'm just starting 12th grade again? I genuinely feel like if I had one more chance, I could do so much better academically and get into my dream college.

The thing is, I only have around 2-3 weeks before college starts here. Once college begins, I know I'll probably have way less time and energy to focus on shifting. I've mini-shifted a few times before but never fully shifted. Now don't get me wrong, i am currently working on some online courses and early college prep, so I am serious about making the most of college in my cr too.

Part of why I want this so badly is because my parents were really disappointed in my results, even though they still support me. I genuinely want to make them proud and also prove to myself that I can do better.

Another reason is that 12th grade was honestly kind of messy socially too. There was a lot of gossip and even a hate group chat against me at one point, and I feel like if I restarted 12th I could avoid a lot of those people and situations entirely.

Do you guys think trying to shift for something like this is worth it?

I've recently finished class 12 and I'll be starting college in around 2 weeks. Lately I've been questioning whether I should continue staying really close with my current best friend.

For context, my dad's job required us to move every few years, so since 6th grade I've gone through multiple close friendships. When I was younger I had a lot of insecurities and got attached to toxic people pretty easily. I had one friend in 9th grade who was extremely popular but had terrible mood swings. I was basically expected to emotionally support her whenever she was upset, but when she felt better she'd ignore me for other people. Eventually I left that friendship.

Later I joined another friend group and became especially close to one girl there. The group eventually fell apart because all of us, including me, contributed to gossip and drama. I regret my part in it and apologised afterwards.

Then in 11th grade I moved schools again and became friends with someone who turned out to be emotionally awful towards me. She was kind to everyone else but constantly insulted me privately and even bullied me after I distanced myself from her. Leaving that friendship really affected me.

After that, I finally became close to someone genuinely kind. I'll call her A. We bonded a lot because we had both recently left toxic friendships, and honestly she has been a very good friend to me.

The problem is that lately I feel like we're growing in different directions.

I really want to focus on academics in college. I didn't get into my dream college and although I still got into a good one, I regret not taking studies seriously enough in 12th. I genuinely want to improve myself now.

But my friend is very carefree about academics and lately she's also been getting involved in gossip, other people's business, and generally avoiding responsibility. Whenever I try to focus, I feel myself slipping into the same careless mindset around her. I'm not blaming her for my actions — at the end of the day my work is my responsibility — but I do wonder whether staying extremely close to someone with a completely different mindset might hold me back.

We're going to different colleges, which might naturally create distance anyway. I still care about her a lot and she's not a bad person at all, which is why this feels so confusing.

I guess my question is: is it normal to outgrow friendships even when the other person hasn't technically done anything wrong? And how do you know whether a friendship is healthy for your growth long-term?

Also, after so many friendships fading over the years, I've honestly started losing faith in finding long-term friends.

Ok so I know that we should keep a regular balance between shifting and our reality and one of the things to help in transition is the WR. So can you guys tell me how you've planned your waiting room to relax and fun things you've added. For eg I saw this somewhere that a shifter added a clock type structure into their waiting room which showed their age in their CR and the age which they are due to all the shifting. I thought that was really cool so id like to know more ideas 💡

I know the basic concept, about you choosing a reality to permanently shift your consciousness to. But how do you script for that? Like after permashifting is there NO WAY for you to come back to your Original Reality (incase you change your mind). Is there anyone who has permashifted and backed out? Or people who are planning to permashift, where are you going and why (also what's your script to ensure no accidental shift back to your original reality?)

Ok so basically I've been in the shifting community for around 2 years and due to school and random burts of motivation I haven't been incredibly consistent with my shifting journey. I know I know BUT I have around a month before college starts and I'm hoping to spend a lot of this free time on shifting. I have a Hogwarts marauders dr (without peter and as James as my s/o). I have minishifted (kinda? Pls guys tell me if this counts) i was trynna shift to another dr where I scripted that I wake up in a ship during a thunderstorm. Basically I heard thunder for a few minutes and thought it was from my cr and woke up but the skies were clear so it was definitely my dr. To the point of this post, can anyone tell me advice on shifting to the marauders dr, subliminals that worked for you and just random plot stuff that you added for ur Hogwarts/ marauders dr (so it will be motivation in a way). Pls send well wishes guys!! Also best of luck for your journeys 💕 (also i think I'll specify but I'm gonna obvs change it from school to college Hogwarts)
