Hey, it’s been awhile.

I’m still alive

Hello there blog readers. I haven’t posted in over a month and figured it’s past time to post something.

I haven’t felt like blogging and life’s been boring and repetitive. I’m going to college taking psychology 101 and math 98 and doing well in both classes. Sometimes they are fulfilling, most of the time, it’s work to do.

Outside of school, I watch TV and browse the Internet, the latter being doom scrolling of news or Instagram. I bought a giant TV (75 inches) as a gift to myself for A grades in class last quarter and a Xmas gift to myself.

I thought I would be happier after getting this TV, it is nice to watch stuff on it, but after two weeks I’m back to how I felt about life as before it.

I’ve been thinking that maybe I’m losing interest in blogging and writing. Neither feels as fulfilling or entertaining as before. Same with every other activity I do day to day.

It doesn’t help that I sprained my ankle two weeks ago when I was taking out the recycling. I didn’t do anything incredible, one foot slipped and my left ankle twisted. So I have that going for me.

I’m going stir crazy and feel like life is pointless because we’re stuck in this awful capitalist system.

It feels like I can’t change, I don’t see the point of changing, the system won’t change, and I’m passing time until my time on earth ends.

Not that the long time investment I put into myself has changed anything in my life or paid off. Not relationships. Not careers. Not therapy. Not medicine. Maybe each has provided brief relief, but that wears off. More often than not, it adds frustration or pain.

I’m not looking for sympathy or anything.

So, this year I’ll update when I can.

    Hey! Geeat to see you on. You would be missed by me if you didn’t write. Tell me about all your boring stuff. I enjoy reading it. I tried to make writing each day a practice for a month so see how it would go. You would think you would run out of stuff but as soon as I sit down I am able to put things down. Now dont get me wrong 90% of its bad but out of 30 Ill have 3 good ones so thats good. Show us all your boring and terrible writing! We want to read them. If you get time let me know what you tink about my Pottery Dailies o wr on my site. It will put you to sleep but I would enjoy the feedback. One person I did not know said they liked it. So thats good!

    Hi. Sometimes I am not motivated to blog and then I blog about being in a slump. Turn you blogging into a journal.

    I haven’t posted in over a year, so you’re definitely doing better than me! 😉

    You don’t have my sympathy – but you definitely have my empathy! I can relate in so many ways. And I often wonder if that’s not the most important part of writing/blogging… so that people CAN relate!
    Sometimes it’s not helpful, but there are definitely moments where I like to know that someone else is feeling like I am!

    Honestly, the world as a whole just seems stuck. Stuck in a form of hell. Each country with their own challenges and bringing their own misery to the worldly party. And it sucks. Especially for those of us who want, and need, different!

    I always come back to that ‘be the change YOU want to see’… and the only thing I CAN change IS me! And that opens up a whole other level of ‘suckiness’. Ha ha!

    I’m sorry I’ve not been around… I am going to make a determined effort to change that though. In the meantime, take care of that ankle and try and write when you can, please! x

      Hey Meg, glad to see you’re back blogging! The world sure does feel like a rerun of a dated tv show that somehow is still airing new episodes. And everyone is wondering why it’s still on.

        But every now and then, there’s a bit of excitement 😉 and THAT’S why my tv is still on 😉
