I was at a really low point in my life. It feels like it was only months ago, but somehow it's been a year.I can't say I powered through the whole thing.
I had several moments when instead of treading the water I just gave up and by some miracle didn't drown.
A lot of fake smiles.
a lot of mental health issues.
a lot of crying in bed.
The only way I comforted myself was to sing myself to sleep. I had no one to comfort me.
Not glad it happened, but glad it's over.
I made my first real friend, I just had my first job interview today in the career field I want.
I really hope I get it.
I got a pet fish, his name is Oceanus.
Even though I'm turning 20 in a pandemic, I feel, for the first time in my life... On top of it all.
I hope this feeling sticks around because I love it here.
Goodnight everyone. I wish nothing more than to share my contentment with anyone who's willing to hear it.
