Baby steps.

Proud of myself for putting forth some effort and challenging my thought patterns as of late. I’m capable! The only thing stopping me is me. I don’t want to jump to conclusions or anything like that, but I’m also trying to be rational about the situation.

It’s fun trying to get to know someone new. Maybe I’ll have some more opportunities these next few days. But until then, I’m going to chill out, take care of school work, and catch up on sports!

I’m just very curious right now, but let’s not get too excited. Be cool. 🤪😎

Covid-19 is back in the household. I hope it’s completely gone in a week! Oh my goodness. It’s so inconvenient. 😫 Patience. Tested myself and I’m negative.

Well, back to A Tourist’s Guide to Love.

Good night.

It’s all too much.

This week has been a lot to process. 😭💔

I grew up during Columbine. I can recall having an open dialogue with classmates and teachers about it. That was 1999. It’s 2022 and gun laws haven’t changed. America is a dangerous place! Don’t come at me about fear mongering. I don’t want to hear it. There are too many guns and not enough laws. “What are we doing?” NOT ENOUGH. #GunControlNow

I remember fire and earthquake drills. Never had to deal with active shooter drills. I’m scared for this generation, but also hopeful. I believe that there is still so much good in the world!

My heart breaks for Uvalde, TX. I pray for the families and friends who lost a loved one. It could’ve been prevented. And reading the reports is a gut punch. I just don’t understand. It’s one shooting after another. I can’t. These events make me angry and helpless. I know I can vote, but I think it’s time for me to reach out to senators!!! Action >

Sports has been a nice escape, but even leagues are sounding off and asking for change!!! We need to do better. It’s now or never.

RIP angels. You’ll be missed. 🤍

Good night.

Insomniac.

My sleep has been irregular for the last few months. I’m dealing with a lot of uncertainties. I’m trying to enjoy the ride, but those moments when I’m alone is when I feel it most. 😭 I’m so anxious too so that doesn’t help.

I’m keeping busy so I can make progress. So far it’s going alright.

Currently listening to Meg & Dia. I revert back to my twenties. Ups and downs, but I learned and experienced so much during those years! I hope the rest of my thirties will be just as eventful.

There’s just a lot to do in this lifetime, but taking it a day at a time. That’s all I can do. Onward! Keeping the faith and hoping for better days. I don’t like to dwell on the pandemic, but it’s impacted my life just like everyone else. I’m not able to freely do what I used to do. I’m changing my patterns and habits. I miss traveling. Probably won’t be able to until 2023. I always think of the future because of my health. Will I be healthy enough? Can I keep up? 😢

I’m doing my best to take care of myself and sometimes it doesn’t work out. I’m stubborn!

I’m getting sleepy so I’ll end it here. This is what’s been going on in my head.

Good night. 💜

LET ME THINK 31.

  • It’s been a week since I’ve stayed home. I’m bored, but nourishing myself.
  • I’m thinking about a lot atm. I hate doing that before bed.
  • 9 more days to 34! WTF?! I grew at 33, 2020 was something. Here’s hoping 2021 will be a better year.
  • Johnny Lawrence. Duh! 😍🥰 I love Cobra Kai.
  • I miss football already. Baseball is almost back. Go Giants! 🖤🧡
  • Love stinks. 3 days away from the day of love. I’m content with being single. I’m not going to settle for some jerk. I said what I said! 💖
  • I’m hoping to be more productive later. What that’ll look like – I don’t know.
  • Getting sleepy.

☮️💟

LET ME THINK 31.

It’s been a while since I’ve done this. I’m writing to let go of my anxiety. I’m feeling miserable about myself. I’m trying to breathe. Trying to be rational. But my overthinking always gets the best of me. I hate it.

I’m in dire need of my heart medication. I’ve never been without it. I’m so upset. I’ve cried a bit. When I’m overwhelmed, I cry.

Holding onto hope. There’s so much going on in the world, but this medication is essential to my wellbeing. I’m scared. I’ve contacted my team, I’m in touch with the pharmacy, and I will give UPS a call in the morning.

You’re swamped. I get it. But I’m on the road to getting myself more sick if I don’t take my meds. The life of a chronic condition patient. I don’t have anything to hide. This has been my life since I was 17 and then diagnosed with my heart condition at 20. This pandemic just reemphasizes the struggles of chronic condition patients. This is our reality. Whenever this pandemic passes, our realities remain the same. Struggle and survival.

I’m going to try to sleep, but I don’t know if I can.

LET ME THINK 29.

I’m not in a good place right now. 2019 just started and there’s too much going on.

Mental health is important and I’m taking steps to take care of myself holistically. These last few days have been difficult. Being belittled and feeling insignificant is damning.

But I’m taking my power back.

I’ll be on hiatus for now. I still want to complete what’s left of my 2018 weekly photo entries. But I’m quite broken and incomplete. I just need time to myself.

Thanks and see y’all on the other side!

LET ME THINK 27.

Currently playing: Martha My Dear

I’m a crying mess.

I’ve always been an emotional person ever since I can remember. Death is a part of life and I’ve dealt with it for the last two years: relatives and pets.

I find myself sleeping late. My sleeping patterns haven’t regulated. I also find myself looking for Coco. She was a big part of our routine. I miss washing her bowl, getting her food ready, and sitting with her on my lap as we all watched TV. I think one of the reasons why I haven’t been too keen on updating my blog is because it was her last few weeks with us and we didn’t even know it at the time. 😦

(I will update when I’m ready. I just need some time.)

I’ve been looking through old pictures. It’s comforting, but also very sad. Time flies. And it never stops even if you want it to.

The dogs I grew up with have taught me so much: how to love, to be a friend, to be patient, to be kind, and to be comforting. I miss all of them every day. I’ll never forget them. Thank you for everything.

Good night.

LET ME THINK 26.

I’m very upset right now. I feel invalidated. I feel like I don’t matter.

These last few days have been hard, but everything from here on out will just be harder. How much more can I possibly take? What’s my purpose? I’m so broken. I’m so empty. I don’t know what else I can possibly do.

The nagging, the criticism, and the comparing is all too much. I do my best to take everything in constructively and sometimes I can’t.

I’m hurt. I’m mad.

I’m feeling hopeless.
