We're here for you, Calano. Life is confusing, and sometimes things just don't make sense. My deepest sympathies go out to you, and I hope you find peace and comfort during this difficult time. Here's a quote about hope that's been meaningful to me in the past:

“Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear hardship today.” - Thich Nhat Hanh.

And im scared

Hugs! You are an amazing person elf, please don't forget that. I'm bad at saying the right thing, but just know that people here on the shard, including me, care about you! I hope you find a light in your darkness and make it thorough this. I'm here if you want to talk.

More Hugs! Welcome to the club of wanting to say things but not knowing how. Being scared is a part of life, I think. I do not know that we could appreciate joy if we didn't know what sadness, loneliness, and other things felt like. Remember, the Knights Radiant always fill the cracks with something stronger. You will do the same.

*Triple Hugs* Everybody has that feeling. You can get through this. I believe in you.

Why do you feel you are barrelling down a path of self destruction?

Elf, I'm really sorry. *hugs*

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to ask for help, so you're already on the right track. If you're serious about wanting help, feel free to message me and I'd totally be happy to help you find any help you need. I know things seem really hard right now, but I promise you there's a light at the end of the tunnel. You can do this. We believe in you and we're here for you always. And I'm definitely not alone in saying that I hope things take a turn for the better.

I'm so sorry.

Asking for help can be hard, but i believe in you. 

Something that has helped me is making a goal. Just a small one, one you can reach easily and feel accomplished for having done. Then you might think, "that was definitely a step off of the path that i'm taking that i dislike." It could be cleaning your room, or taking a walk, or drinking some tea. Anything that you will feel better after having done. Doing something like that when i feel awful has helped me, and maybe it's not for everyone, but i would try it.

If you want to vent or go into more details, please don't hesitate to pm me <3

Not a bad day but just a ‘this coworker is being frustrating’ thing.

This particular coworker acts like everyone, and I mean everyone, is giving too much ice cream away. I was trained that you fill up the cup and for cones have 3 swirls on top but she thinks that’s too much ice cream. She even gave a ‘demonstration’ on how much and she even said it was still too much. I could understand if it was just our area but every single venue that has ice cream? Heck the Harry Potter area has 4/5 swirls as their standard for cones and she was livid at that one. What made it worse is she thinks her standard applies to places not even owned by Universal itself like McDonald’s and Disney World.

Theres another coworker and she always acts like a jerk. One venue it had been a few months since I was there for closing so I needed a moment to remember all the steps of what was needed and that was unreasonable for her. Heck I was squeegeeing the excess water towards a drain and she had a problem with that. When emptying the shake machine for cleaning she got on me for not getting big enough containers for the shakes even after telling her I got the biggest ones available.

*Hugs* I know it doesn't really help, but some people are just annoying. You have to learn to live with them, even if they really, really get on your nerves. Also, sometimes people act like that because they are really stressed about something, or are having a rough time. Regardless, *Hugs again* you'll do fine, you will persevere. I believe you will.

So our city was already under lockdown, but a couple days ago our entire neighbourhood became a high-risk area. Nobody is allowed out of their apartments, and there's mandatory testing every day. Food has to be delivered.

It's irritating, but not a huge inconvenience to me, since I don't go out much anyway. It does feel a little dystopian sometimes though - there was a knock on the door today, and it was a bag of vegetables from the government.  dystopian. hah. that's not dystopian. Being woken up at twelve in the night to do COVID testing is dystopian.

How are you handling it?

Update: the neighbourhood lockdown was lifted tonight, and the local kids are celebrating. It is loud. Somebody is banging a pan.

Ninja'd!

It's going well! Only a little bit sick of each other, and on the whole it hasn't affected me much. Something crazy though - and I swear to G-d this is true - for the last few nights they decided to do mandatory COVID testing at twelve o'clock in the night. I have no idea why. Bureaucracy, probably.

Yeah, I hope so too. It's 9 PM, so hopefully it'll have died down by bedtime.
