i do a lot more journaling than i used to, i think it helps me compile my thoughts and reflect upon more. even if it's just to talk about my day, like this one will be, it's nice to feel seen and listened to.

i drank too much last night, so i skipped my classes for the day. i don't think i missed out on too much, which is good. i spent the day catching up instead, and now i have some time for myself to probably browse on this cool website i found (don't worry, i'll link it), or play club penguin (naturally, as every adult woman should). 

iron lung is in theatres tomorrow, and my friend and i are going together! i'm excited to be able to go out again, hope i can feel better by tomorrow. 

i've been going to the gym in the evenings lately. i gained weight and stopped being able to fit a lot of my clothing, so i've been navigating that. i don't hate my body, just my belly. i think that once i tone that, i'll feel really proud of the progress i've made with treating my body with more respect. i've stopped treating it like a tool, although i did dip back into alcohol a little too hard and need to rein it in a little.

my therapist emailed me to do another appointment, but never got back to me. i may try to reach out again about this, but i hope that she's just been busy. i do need support right now, although sometimes it is difficult to reach out and ask for it. sometimes i just hope it will appear out of thin air. 

that's enough ranting for now. i think i'll play some more club penguin, i need to feel that good nostalgia feeling.
