hi i think i’ve made it pretty clear that i’m not doing well (but really are any of us though) so i’m making this a thread of silver linings i’m finding bc i need it and someone else might too
1) i am very lucky that all of my professors and advisors have been super patient and accommodating with me and several have validated my feelings and concerns with needing to do letter grades and not pass/fail
2) !!!!!!TW!!!!!!! i’m not w my abuser anymore and i can’t imagine going through this pandemic while still being with them
3) so many people have made the effort to check up on me (and vise versa)
4) ive been over sharing on the internet ~a lot~ but it has come in the form of good content hehe
5) i will still likely will be able to live in DSM this summer and even though it might just be me isolating by myself, i will be so much happier
6) before this week, i have done a lot of cooking and baking!!
7) i can’t even express how wonderful and supportive my friends are and how much they mean to me
8) on the flip side, it has hurt me a lot but i’ve really found out who actually cares about me and what their intentions are and im able to recognize that they are not putting enough good things into my life as much as they are bad
10) sims !!!!!!!!!!!
11) i didn’t really have a good grip on second semester before everything happened and now looking at it, that’s totally okay and maybe for the best because things changed so radically super fast
12) obviously things really suck right now but september-december were SO good for me and i hadn’t had a good month in a long time at that point, let alone 4. i’m looking forward to having generally good months again bc i know they will happen eventually.
13) i’ve wanted to get a tattoo for my dad for awhile now (and while this sounds mean i don’t really like generic memorial tattoos and they’re not rly my vibe/aesthetic) but i finally figured it out and i’m excited to get it eventually :)
14) james finally fucking has twitter!!!!!! @jmille_17
17) i finally paid my security deposit on my summer housing (which might have been a little risky bc of ms rona but oop)!!
18) i’m learning how to balayage my own hair so i can dye it purple which might be stupid but it will make me happy i think
19) i (think i) fell asleep before 4am last night which sounds teeny and unimpressive but i haven’t been able to do that in at least 2 weeks
haha oops forgot about this thread but 20) i got a new tarot deck yesterday and i like it a lot!! i am v excited about it
