Tuesday is my first day of school every week, so Saturday until I leave around 4 for campus is usually left for me to spiral through anywhere from loneliness to anxiety. But since I've picked up Livejournal again lately, I've also been sifting through old entries and posts! There was a time circa 2010 where I drew so much and so well but it was also when I was in the throes of fandom. These days, I am a fan of things but I haven't been involved in so much fandom lately, just on the fringe as a fan of things. Frankly, I haven't been indulging in as much drawing of fanart but maybe it's the key to my full enjoyment? I'll have to do it to find out.
Last Sunday, I had a lovely brunch with my friend Juliette, it was very indulgent and very out of our budget but it was also just the thing to helping us feel a bit more human in this transient space we are both in at the moment. We have similar situations-- I'm lucky enough to have money to study and she is working as a paid intern but we are not by any means wealthy or have money to blow. So what to do when you live in a city where enjoyment depends so much on mobile and monetary mobility.
So, if anyone is reading this on their feed...what are you doing these days? I started LJ when I was a high school freshman and carried on until 2015. Are you married? Do you have kids? Are you in fandoms? Are you sharing your fandoms? Are you balancing this with a career? Have you made your interests part of your career? I would love to know.
personal,
