This is my online diary.
I worked today and then went for a walk. There is still 3-4 inches of snow and the wind was opressive, but I went for lunch anyway. Then I played league with a friend. After that hebrew class. Now I'm here writing this. I'm trying with great effort to eliminate phone screen time- mostly by using my landline phone and its bluetooth adapter. There are a lot of lovely birds outside in the snow today- I looked out my window and saw a blue jay, cardinal, raven, and a woodpecker all in the same tree!
Thoughts:
I began my final course for my bachelors degree on monday. It's wednesday now. Also, I went to a card shop for the first time on saturday and met some lovely ladies to play commander with. I had an absolute blast and I'm planning on going back this weekend. I'm also going to work on building a commander deck using only birds. The internship search is not going well- every app turns into a denial about one day after applying. I had a very annoying run-in at the local ATT where I found out that, because my iphone 15 is Esim only, I can't swap the SIM back and forth like I used to be able to with my flip phone. So now I can't really use my flip phone at all, and it's frustrating.
I woke up at 5am with horrid cramping but was able to fall back asleep. We went for bagels in the morning and then I got some work done. I have to work on the algorithm for my capstone project and do some more work after that. I am just so tired today and having such dreadful cramps it's hard to get out of bed. Despite that I'm trying to stay away from social media and my phone. This post is very all over the place because my brain just feels like mush. Thank G.od tomorrow is friday.
I have continued to try cutting out my social media use more and more. I've been able to get quite a bit of reading done now that I have a flip phone and app limited my youtube. I also uploaded to my youtube channel and hope to do that more consistently. I found that the more I go on the internet- the more I have absolutely zero desire to create any art. This is a shame because in middle and high school almost all of my free time was spent drawing, planning out my stories, and looking at content that was inspiring to me. Is anyone else just not inspired by anything anymore? The only thing that's sparked joy in recent memory for me was Arcane. I'm also quite bored as it's my final semester in college and I'm only taking one course. Yet, it's still too early to apply for a big girl job so I'm kind of trapped in limbo. I'm going to start applying for a job a month from now, once we have a working prototype of the project. I also need to start going to physical therapy for a surgery I never fully recovered from.
