All my practical exams are over and only theory is left, that means this year of my senior high is over and I have been feeling a bit down lately which I have discussed elsewhere, but how was your week?

    My wife died after being together for 25 years.

    I’m guessing at some point I’ll get better.

      May your grief alleviate and your heart find peace, I recently lost someone as well, not very close but still kind of a reminder how fragile this life is

      Hope you’re doing as good as you can. Lost my wife of 4 years a bit over a year ago. It fucking sucks. There’s no way to describe the pain of losing someone so close. It doesn’t really get better with time, it just gets duller and you learn to live with it. I found it best just to surround myself with family and friends and just ride through the waves of emotion.

    I made two memes this week. Now I have to pay all the bills I’ve been putting off because I don’t have the money or I’ll freeze.

    The good: I just signed a new lease in a city I have always wanted to live in, so it’s moving time

    The bad: I hit an enormous raccoon which cracked my bumper and have to take my car in for repairs today on my lunch break

    Man my week was wild. Lots of emotional ups and downs but I think things are going to turn out okay in the end. At least I hope so.

    It’s ok, busy but not really because i just bump everything to next week’s calendar. With Ash Wednesday this week i thought i would give up procrastinating, but have struggled to get started. Vacation this weekend so that should be fun, but I’m beginning to worry about the $$.

    Whats making you feel low?

      i thought i would give up procrastinating

      Good Luck, I personally motivate myself by promising myself some kind of treat if i complete my work on time, very generic but it works atleast for me

      Whats making you feel low?

      Long story short, gotta say goodbye to one of my teacher that really helped me thru my stuff, I kinda have had some family problems so whenever someone shows some care about me, I kinda get a little emotional lol

      Edit: And have fun on your holidays

        That’s a good idea - i often stop for a coffee or tea in the afternoon - maybe I’ll try to skip that on my less-productive days.

        If your teacher doesn’t know how much you appreciate them, you should let them know. I work in schools and it’s really nice when a family tells you that you’ve made a difference for them. Change can be hard, but that’s how we grow. Next year you may meet someone else who will help you in the next phase of your life.

    I’d say it was average. Nothing too exciting but nothing too bad either. I am going away for a ski weekend with a few friends, which I’m looking forward to.

      Ngl I feel like just avg days are the best, ‘good days’ might be fun but they normally leave me exhausted, and ofc no one wants a bad day

      Skipping the gym sucks for me, a good way to release all your frustration and anger is going crazy in the gym, and you build some muscle as well! I hope that your migraine gets better
