I am going to try getting back on LiveJournal because it is time to write. My life update: I have moved to Singapore for grad school, FINALLY. Not the finally of Singapore but the finally of getting over myself and applying to grad school, getting in and now I'm here. It is something that I have put off for a horrible amount of time. Now I am 31, single, gf/aro/f and I have to figure all of this out before my head explodes.
I am constantly warring among my own states, particularly the logical scholar who loves her work and the passionate artist who can't see a future in that but can't not do it anyway. I have laid a short list of goals that I should accomplish this year. It's not much.
- Put out a portfolio and a good body of work, if not for something then to my satisfaction.
- Do not do more than two major upheavals a day. Ex, on school days, one is school/class and then one other thing.
- I have successfully fucked up my sleep schedule, as I knew I would but in the process also mucked up any hope for fitness, taking my meds regularly, etc. I know I have anxiety and mild depression at best but I also know that being out and walking makes me feel better, instead of giving in to sleeping, which I can do up to 12 hours or more for no reason. As a result, I feel tired and that's no good, especially when I have school work. Fix this now.
- Stay in touch, reach out to people and keep solidly reminding them that you are here for them, that you exist, that you are available even virtually and also remind them when you can't.
- Writing. I would like to release some kind of e-book. Clean out my WIPs. Satisfy myself, even if it's just fanfic, even if it's just an LJ entry.
personal,
