I need better time management skills
Trying to figure out a healthy work-life rhythm, colleagues seem to start at 7AM and keep going until 9PM, so I’ve been matching that pace. I’d love to have a hard stop around 6:30PM, but I keep feeling like I’m falling behind.

Listless but okay
I'm feeling a bit more listless, but I'm feeling fine after a week long of being half-conscious, ill, and grumpy. I'm really touched by some of the messages and emails I've received lately about checking up on me.

June ain’t really kicking off for me
I want to share this story and how confused I am at my immune system. I haven’t been feeling good lately, but I had a really nice day with my friend yesterday. She told me she had a bit of a cough and also conjunctivitis, said we could reschedule, but I haven’t seen her in a while so I compromised and said let’s just hang out outside, walk around, I thought it would be fine.
Now I got pink eye and a terrible cough, but I’m not mad at her at all. I’m just unlucky lmao.

I am in the worst mental state possible
The good thing is that I'm back with family.
The bad thing is that I'm looking inward and isolating myself a bit more :(

social media detox
I've deleted all my social media apps on my phone before I went camping with my friends last weekend. I think I pretty much watch YouTube essays videos now.
This is a social media detox, but I might just limit my hours on them whenever I feel the need to rejoin and do some doomscrolling again?

depleted
Aw man. I feel a bit tired and depleted.

checking back in
I have been so depleted mentally and physically that I didn't even check Bear to read anything all of April and part of May lol
It looks like things have been the same for the most part, so that's good I guess. I might as well keep on writing.
I also missed by Bear birthday (8 May). It feels like an actual birthday. Perhaps I'll write about it, perhaps not. I am getting to that age where metabolism and alcohol start mixing worse (conversation I had with a friend today). Oof!

whimsy
In all aspects of life, I aim to keep my cool and whimsy. It's hard to do because a lot of things keep people jaded, but I deliberately want to keep my spark.

I’ve been snippy
Modern technology has granted us the ability to globally connect with people in a seamless way, better than before. Unfortunately, miscommunication is still abundant. I was told by my friend that my “tone” via text message is very pointed. I answered a question in a very “non-nonsense” and “snippy” way, when I meant to be a little bit sarcastic and flat.
After apologizing, I still felt a bit uncomfortable. I could always hit people with the (/srs) tone indicators, but I feel a bit weird using them all the time. I don’t want to come across as snippy and mean.

mom lore
Been talking with a new email penpal buddy about my “mom lore” and I’ve been wanting to continue to live a little bit longer as an independent, free-spirited girl out in the world before settling down with a kid or something. To my mother’s dismay, I seem to be just a slight disappointment by not yearning for parenthood or family life while approaching my late twenties, but all is okay!
I’ve been doing a good job making the mom lore stories, rather than preserving the stories. I am unfortunately not archiving it as well as I should be! Good thing I have pretty good memory… I’ll be sure to update with blog posts. My currently travel diaries are more than a year late! Haha
