hi friends!

long time no see! i've been super inactive on here but i finally have some free time so i thought i'd give a life update! here's what's been going on in my world <3

1. i graduated college!!!! 

finally! ugh semester from hell is OVER. literally the worst 4 months of my life. i have never been more exhausted but i'm already feeling better! i was in literally so much pain every day from going to class then working i literally couldn't get out of bed for a week at one point. i got bronchitis in october and it genuinely took me like 2 weeks to recover because i was so exhausted.

2. gap year + side quest time!!!

spending the next year or so trying to get my shit together so i can apply for grad school! working lots rn and trying to save up money and looking for museums to volunteer at right now! i'm also about to start my TEFL certification so i can teach ESL on the side!

3. i feel like a person again!!

i had literally no time to myself for so long that i was basically neglecting everything but school and work. i got my hair done today and i already feel better :) i have sooo much time for my hobbies now too!! been reading a lot, writing and drawing and all that good stuff

4. work...

i'm getting a promotion very soon ... kind of scared tbh! going from ASM to store manager once my boss leaves! i don't plan to do this forever so i'm kind of disillusioned as to where i'm at in life right now but i just have to remind myself that everyone has their own path and this is where i'm at on my timeline rn :)

anyways! how have y'all been?! tell me all about it!!

xoxo, mae <3
