• To anyone who’s been wondering— I’m in situational depression, and honestly, I don’t want to talk about it in detail. The things that used to bring me joy just don’t anymore, and my screen time has been climbing higher and higher. Life has been hectic—studies, projects, chores—everything at once. With midterm exams starting in early October, I’ve been telling myself that I really want to do well. Not necessarily be a topper, but at least score above average. More than anything, I want to prove to myself that I can do it—that I’m capable of focusing, completing things, and achieving results.
• My grandma has been staying with us (I’ve written about her before: Granny Gone Wild) and it’s been exhausting. Honestly, she feels like the biggest burden in my life right now. I know I shouldn’t say that, but it’s the truth I’m sitting with.
• College, otherwise, has been good. My friend Zee is always in such a good mood, and that energy rubs off on me too—even if only for a little while.
• Meanwhile, Caroline and I have been manifesting something super simple: chocolate cake and a sunset 🌇. It sounds silly, but I really hope it happens.
• The weather has been so soothing lately—dark clouds, cool breezes, and the occasional rain 🌧️.
