I didn't get the job lollllll
the positions were given out based on scheduling and I wasn't available enough for them unfortunately, but apparantly they thought I was a good candidate so I can reapply next semester which is sick
I'm just gonna be unemployed for now, probably to the summer. Which is fine cause I need to rest more for my current health unfortunately.

Sometimes I feel bad for spending money on my various hobbies but then I remember that a bunch of people where I live ski and snowboard and stuff and that’s socially acceptable to spend a lot of money on so I’m totally good.

ooooo interesting! I've not seen a notebook like that. Yeah I have a hard time with the dots and with lined paper for planning, I prefer blank or graph. This is what the hobonichi daily pages look like:
Spoiler
That's the a5, which is the one I have, but there's also an a6 and travelers size as well

Woah, that’s super cool.
i got a notebook that’s ALL dots for Christmas and I haven’t been able to figure out what to do
probably it’ll be some weird combination of planning, calligraphy, and writing. Usually I do all the stuff on lines, because I really like that aesthetic even if it’s not convenient.

Actually insane its been a full year since the last part of epic came out what
I remember listening to it today a year ago after my family went to bed ...
Wow

okay life update time!!!
I was gonna try to other productive things today but ... I'm in a weird mood so it is what it is. I tried making some paper Christmas decorations for my room and they turned out really bad T-T so I'm kinda not in the mood to work on other hobbies lol
It feels really weird mostly not having any school work to do. I feel like I should be doing something productive, but there's not much to really do. I'm supposed to relax over my break but so far I can't get myself to.
I'm really excited about Christmas but it kind of snuck up on me this year. It's crazy how Dec felt so long when I was child but now it barely feels like any time at all. I'm trying really hard to be happy and relaxed for the holidays but my mental health is still not great. Not leaving the house regularly and butting heads with my family because I'm home more is not helping. Anyway it's weird to think that Christmas is just a few days away, I really don't feel prepared and I wish I had put together more gifts.
My health has been ... not good lately, in various ways. Doing school and work at the same time is really taking it out of me, and making issues I've always had more apparent. I've gone to the doctor several times but it's always kind of disappointing. It kind of irks me that they don't really care to find out what's wrong with me, they just want to put a band aid over things and hope they go away. I really don't like taking pills, especially when it feels like they're not doing much at all.On a more positive note, I'm so happy it's finally winter. I tried really hard not to hate fall this year, but I just can't help but feel miserable during it. There's something about it that's just so oppressive and stuffy and it makes me feel bad. We haven't got much snow at all in Utah yet but I can feel the change in the air and see the new sunlight color. It's so refreshing and so nice!! I'm actually so happy it's winter now it's kind of silly. I've been really enjoying cuddling up in blankets and hoodies. Winter isn't going to fix my problems but at least I won't fill gross whenever I look outside lol.
I don't have very many goals for 2016, but I'm excited for the new year. 2025 was definitely not a good year for me, and I don't know if much is going to change but at least a fresh start will feel good. I bought myself a fancy planner to try and give myself motivation lol. This new year I do want to try to read more, I read very little this year and it makes me sad. I also want to try and start shifting my wardrobe towards clothes I like more.
I don't want to write too long, even tho there's more stuff I could say lol. I miss you guys and would be more active I just don't spend much time on the computer anymore. (Not to say I've been less chronically online, I just scroll on my phone way too much lol).
I hope you guys are having a good day!!-
i have never related so much to a post in my life lol. trying to escape the fight-or-flight of school and work during break is so real, and the bad health with no answers SUCKS. i’ve been there before, and it’s really hard, but you’re not alone and we can do this together!!


(noah kahan’s stick season album got me through the fall so i do recommend
especially strawberry wine; no complaints; your needs, my needs; you’re gonna go far; and the view between villages extended)
as for creative burnout, that’s so real. i spent a collective 10 hours animating these past two weeks and now i haven’t touched my ipad since friday cuz i just can’t
so i getchu girlie!!
i’m sorry things have been so tough lately, and i hope you can find some rest and peace soon cuz girl you deserve it!

Hi everybody!
finals went good, I didn’t really have an exams this semester so it wasn’t too bad lol. I survived! Next semester is going to be even more work tho >_>
im going to try and switch jobs this semester, my health hasn’t been the best and working food service isn’t helping with that. I’m hoping for some kind of desk work job on campus but we’ll see. I’m gonna do a longer life update soon hopefully !!

Okay weird random question but,
I know several of you guys have read the name of the wind
Do guys remember the lore that was sort of like Christianity but to the left that gets told through the different storytelling chapters around the 1/3rd mark? With the pseudo mary who gives birth to "jesus" and he grows up in a few days? And then the villagers try to attack him? And later he hunts down the devil?
Was there a part of that storyline where "jesus" has to carry a heavy artifact (it was not a cross) for several miles in a perfectly straight line to a specific town? And its part of his purifying the world of evil quest? I feel like im going crazy i cant remember if that happened in the book or if I had some weird unrelated dream
Lol this is why I need to fix my sleep schedule why am I up thinking about this at 1am
-
Logging onto the shard and trying to figure out if all the folks I don’t recognize are new or people who’ve changed their names

-
I was skimming the announcement for songs of the dead on Sandos Instagram and accidentally read "star wars" instead of strata wars lolll
I was like. Now hang on a minute.
Im not really interested in star wars novels anymore but one by sando could be pretty cool honestly.

I hate my job so much you guys
Auugufujkjdijijdcijdcjidcijdcjdcjidcckdjdcjk
what is a reasonable amount of time to hold a job before quitting without seeming childish or like an asshole. I’m genuinely looking at other options because I can’t take fast food anymore.

I had a dream about this forum last night guys

QuoteLike "yes this thing is indeed racism" or like the dictionary definition of racism
This week for my anth class we're talking about race and how it is scientifically proven to have no biological basis.
And this guy was like.
"That seems like a politically biased opinion and can DNA really be trusted?"
And I'm like. No??? It is proven science???

HI EVERYONE HOW ARE YOU !!! ???
Turns out full time student + part time job is a killer combo, but there's nothing like procrastinating homework to bring one back to the forums amiright.It's life update time!
How am I? I have no idea lol I'm all over the place.
My job isn't too bad. It's fast food so it can only be so good, but all of my coworkers are nice to me and it's not like it's that hard, just tiring. I get covered in ice cream everytime tho lollll
College is hard, and reading the textbooks takes me hours because for some reason I can't read quickly anymore. But it's also really fun. I like studying at the library and walking around the pretty campus and sometimes buying snacks. Also lowkey having the freedom to go up and back from campus everyday as an adult is giving me life. Sometimes a girl just needs a good wander now and then. I'm enjoying my classes, and I've already made some ugly art which is good.
Don't worry about all my currently due assignments, they're not there if I don't think about them!!!
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuh. A lot of stuff happened but it's late and I do remember anything tbh ...
I rearranged all the furniture in my room which is really fun. I have room for more bookcases now which means I can buy more books eheheheheeheheh. I plan on decorating it and making it a really special place for myself cause it's basically my comfert zone. Plus I don't have a dorm room to decorate because I'm living at home so I gotta have my fun somehow.
I starting reading WoT. My brother and I are gonna try and buddy read the whole series which will be fun I think. I have no idea how to pronounce moiooiranine or whatever her name is.
Updates on more serious stuff I guess?SpoilerI was finally able to talk to a doctor about my anxiety, and prove to my mom it's not just a lack of vitamins messing up my brain. I'm now taking meds for it, and I do think it has helped a little with general anxiousness though I still have bad days. It hasn't helped the depresso expresso though lmao so what can you do.
The doctor didn't really diagnose me with a disorder, or offer to look into diagnoses though, and I'm not sure if I should push for that or not. On the one hand, it's not good to wrap your identity around a health problem, which is a lesson I'm trying to learn. On the other hand, I do wish I could concretely say "I have a disorder" when explaining my problems to folks so .... I'm not sure what to do lol.
I actually found out that the clinic on my college campus will test you for ND for free though, so I'm thinking my next step will be figuring out if I have Autism or not (because if I do then that's a root cause of a lot of other stuff).
By the way I finally told my mom I suspect I have it, which is something I was really scared to do. I've heard to many horror stories about more traditional folks not understanding, but when I told she literally said "Lowkey I might have it too." What a queen.
Uhhhhhhh I did also come out to my sister (who's not in the church anymore) and it was really scary but she was really accepting and loving about it and it made me feel really safe knowing she's there for me. We've always been close and I'm really thankful for her.
I want to say I'm doing better now then I was a few months ago but I don't know if that's true ... I just have a lot more distracting me and keeping me busy lol. That's not necessarily a bad thing!
I've missed you all and I love you so much. I hate how I've disappeared and believe me when I say forum activity is not the only thing that has suffered for the insanity that is my life ... I have so many neglected hobbies ... and unfinished projects ... and my succulents are dying ...
I can tell it's getting late because my laptop and my phone simultaneously ran out of battery so I gotta wrap this up!! I'll probably think of more things to say in the morning, but that's all the big stuff.Love you <333

QuoteLove you too girl!!!
Awwwwwwwwwww thanks

QuoteMy mom thinks everyone has at least a sprinkle of ADHD
That's not really how it works, but that's a sweet sentiment!
Quotesome words of advice about WoT
Don't get disgusted/bored/grossed out in the middle books, you'll know what I mean, but after book 11, it is the single greatest fantasy series ever written (with exception to Tolkien obv)
Remember side characters, they important and will come back
Buddy I have heard this exact same thing from like 15 different people, including a random guy at the bus station who saw me carrying the book
. I'm well aware.
QuoteLet me know of your thoughts on characters! (and theories
)
Would you guys be interested in a reaction thread from me? I've been thinking about doing one as a reason to stay active, and I'm going to be typing up reactions to send to my brother anyway.
QuoteI pronounce it Mwah-rain, or close enough
omg thanks T-T
Thanks everyone !!!!!!!!!!11

College is kinda based
Working fast food is kinda not

Hate it when you do something fun for yourself as a treat and it ends up making you feel worse...
I decided to splurge on an expensive notebook because I got my first paycheck
--it is a notebook, not a sketchbook though it has blank pages, but the expensive brand made me think the paper quality would be fine for drawing anyway
-GSM is pretty low but I'm not picky
--I open the packaging. Nice!!
--the paper is pretty thin. That's okay, I prefer drawing on thin paper anyway, let me do some test doodles-
--ah
--the paper is see through
--see through



Its darker irl and the lighting in my room is bad but
That is the back side of the drawing T-T how am I supposed to fill the pages. Even if I were to write in it as intended???
I don't think I can return it now that I've marked it either T_T
Sorry to post about another sad thing before the promised life update but aksjdndndjdjdjdndndnxnxjdkskdkd
Its almost 1 am I need to sleep and try not to think about how much I spent
I will figure out what to do with this in the morning T____T
Love you guys T__T

Summer break is over

I spent most of it rotting in my room, but to be fair a lot of other stuff has happened, good and bad. I want to do a big life update because I have a lot of stuff to share with you guys, and I'm hoping going back to a school setting will mean I'm more active on here.But for now, all I can think about is how my lazy days are over. It'll be worth it, and I'll have the courage to go to class tomorrow, but for now I feel a little sad. I know a lot of people love fall, and the fall aesthetic, but I've never been able to romanticize it. I'm too young, and afraid of natural decay. It still hurts too much, but I'll try and fix that this year.
I love you guys, and I'll try to talk more soon. For tonight, I need to write an essay before bed (that's right, an essay due on the first day of class, we're jumping right back into the grind). Luckily it's only like 500 words, and boy do I have things to say.

Thanks everyone!! I have a week left before my first class starts. I'm pretty nervous but also excited.QuoteWhere are you going?

"Um actually, if you read ~6000 more pages of this guys work you might unlock more kelsier content!"

The exact same thing happened to me!!
Spoileron Saturday my friend was like "I finished the Final Empire, when K died I was so sad!"
And I just nodded sympathetically and said "Yeah, i know right
"
Him: "but at least I think we get a cute animal companion in the next book from one art piece I saw"
and I just nodded. HAHA yup just a totally normal kandra doggo that is definitely OreSeur


lol
