i’m six months post graduation, still unemployed, and discouraged about my prospects. this past week i’ve been especially anxious and depressed. i’m sure y’all have noticed my absence here… i miss y’all dearly but i‘ve been having to conserve my energy so i can survive irl. BUT i’ve officially decided to GIVE UP until January. i’m burnt out on job search so i'm gonna rest and go full vacation mode. it’s time for baking, crafting, and making my apartment cozy af for the holidays. i feel so much better already; highly recommend.

the sweet release of inbox zero. getting home and knowing that you can wake up whenever you want tomorrow - in fact, you’re so excited for temporary unemployment, maybe you’ll wake up even earlier than usual. you‘ll take a walk first thing in the morning, clean the apartment, run those errands you’ve been meaning to for months now. you’ll go to a concert with your friends and smoke weed on a weeknight. creative and personal projects during the day. you’ll road trip with your brothers, go see your sister graduate, finish the books on your night stand. for just a little time, the world is your oyster.

I suddenly woke up within the past week or so and realized I can’t keep letting my life suffocate me (not to sound dark but it is what it is, in a lot of aspects). My brain is trying for the second time to push me into getting fired from a miserable side gig I have by avoiding and procrastinating and making careless mistakes because my heart is just not in it and really, it never was… last time this happened it was my only source of income and there was a great yawning abyss beneath me but luckily now I do have a job that I enjoy and is not stressful where I’m treated with respect and I get to do a lot of things.
All of that is to say that I just turned a project in literally like 30 seconds before it was due (LOL) and I realized I can’t keep doing this to myself so I’ve decided to quit and hope that this opens up space for me to find something better 🙏

i made strawberry shortcakes and three kinds of iced teas (ginger peach green tea, lemon black tea, and ginger hibiscus rooibos), and my roommate made bruschetta! then we played Rummy and 9-card Golf for like four hours. i’m so sleepy and content :)
