Get yourself a cup of tea because I’ve got stuff to say. It’s 2022, and for the first time since, I don’t know, 2016, I’m feeling optimistic about the coming year. I’ve been overdue for some mindset shifts, and I think they’re finally reaching me. I wish I could attribute …
It’s time to celebrate because the demolition of the building next door is done! All that remains is a roped-off field of dirt, and my neighborhood is back to it’s eerily silent self. I can’t believe how much better I feel already. When it was noisy, it felt like the …
For the past couple of months, I’ve been practicing Tarot (Consulting? Using? What’s the right verb for this?). I never did anything with Tarot before, so I got a few books, and I’ve been watching a youtube channel called Practical Mystic Carol. There are thousands of resources online, but I …
I’m not going on Facebook, anymore. It’s not for good. It’s just for now. This isn’t an activist stand or anything, so I’m not about to go on about how evil it is or how Zuckerberg has a Napoleon complex (but it really seems like he does, though, right?). About …

I’ve been feeling depressed and lonely, lately, and social media has been letting me down, so my plan is to write something light and casual here. It’s probably going to be short because I have to get ready for ballet in about an hour. I went to Saturday morning ballet …
At the start of 2019, I wasn’t just going to be proactive, I was going to be aggressive. I made myself a bullet journal. I set some goals. Back when I was a student, I dedicated one notebook and one folder to each subject, and then later, I did that …
