i am actually surrounded by so much love itās incredible i canāt believe that i ever thought life was supposed to feel more lonely and isolated in order to model adulthood or productivity (and also just in general that life was meant to be somewhat loveless in pursuit of survival essentially)ā¦.i have things of value to add in my classes and in fields of research that are still expandingā¦.i am rediscovering my love for learning after having it nearly ripped from me as well as (or rather in addition to) my entire sense of safety at schoolā¦.i noticed a sticky note on the monitor in the manager office when i arrived to my orientation that said āwhen interviewing - try to pick out the superstars, we have -a lot- of applicationsā and it made me realize i am successful/noticeably rly advocated for myself at my interview and i feel like iām genuinely compensated for what my labor is worthā¦i am forming a local close knit genuine network of support and friendship and community and itās really really excitingā¦my metals prof from last semester micro-welded my glasses back together today as a favor and he was really glad to see me and i just like..asked for aid and received it! he was excited to use his micro-weld kit too lol it was sweet ;w; i woulda taken his metals II but i have a dire art ed class at the same timeā¦that class is sooo good tho ugh i love being in a room composed of weirdos talking abt rly compelling topics re: disability/theory/art/etcā¦spending time with people who i am completely myself around and feeling them let their guard down too and iām not scared of my classmates anymoreā¦oscar is so sweet n snuggly lately..iāve been moving (skating) regularly and now my appetite is coming back after so longā¦i feel like iām at a little checkpoint of visualizing the healing iāve done..like a little break in the clouds and iām still eating tums every day but iām still trying very very hard like more than i ever have before and itās paying off itās really beautiful i never wanna give upā¦.
