exam tomorrow, impostor syndrome, fear, regret, frustration.
I found a spider on my bathroom wall, I decided to chat with her for a little while. I warned her not to crawl on me when i’m sleeping or on my bed, and kindly asked not to have babies. I also gently asked her not to go into my dirty laundry or when I put it in the washing machine, she will die. I don’t wanna kill her, she lives in my house too, since she can’t pay rent I asked for some pest control activities, I hope she will agree to these terms. my little silent roommate, I have decided it’s name will be Fern. I hope Fern will bring me luck for my exam tomorrow, next time I see her I shall tell her about it.
thanks Fern, goodnight and eat well.

* the only recommendation I have that doesn’t involve killing them is trying to seal any areas that go outside because I assume they’re getting in from somewhere? * swallowing the spiders, swallowing a bird to catch the spiders, swallowing a cat to catch the bird, swallowing a dog to catch the cat, et cetera. I don’t know why * getting a cat actually if you don’t have one? Maybe they can help 🙏 (just kidding I just saw you said ‘without inviting a different animal in’) * diatomaceous earth or borax sprinkled around the perimeters of the house * I avoid going into my detached garage because it’s full of spiderwebs and it creeps me out but winter is coming so I think it has to be cleared out to like park in. my dad (nature hippie who ordinarily hates killing any creatures, insects and spiders included) told me to buy a shopvac and vacuum them all up. So like very meticulously vacuuming all nooks and crannies

my biggest fear is bugs and spiders especially daddy long legs spiders cause they’re disgusting HOWEVER sometimes i let it slide if i find one in my room cause it’s not close enough to bother me one lived in my wardrobe for months cause it was out of the way and i would only have to see it if i got clothes out so that was fine but then it just disappeared so rip i guess unless it’s living in some corner just found one this morning in a corner under my shelves and u know what it can live! i literally can’t see it unless i bend down from a certain angle so whatever as long as i don’t see it move it’s fine

I have these spiders that live in my house called flatties and I love them. They are so silly and they are always running around. They don't make webs, they hunt their prey like some kind of crab. Did you know tarantulas live 20-25 years? That's incredible. I have many tarantulas that live in my yard and they love chilling outside their hole and night every summer. Before I moved into this house I was so scared of bugs. I had no choice but to face my fears and now I like spiders. Life will change you, won't it?
ps. I wanted to include a flattie picture but i decided not to out of consideration for others who are scared of bugs. so google them if you are curious!

listening to music on a bus or on the train while alone and looking out the windows with some music in your ears is the closest thing to the poetic experience ever
