been keeping my switch with me at all times and taking 5 minute breaks to water plants and catch new bugs to donate to blathers. feels good to pretend to be in control of things!
i've been playing it with an emulator on my computer and it's so so fun... my siblings at home get to keep our switch so this is scratching my animal crossing itch until i go home for summer break! my town is called weeville (like the bug) ^_^
after five years of grad school and subsequent job search, i can finally say i have successfully changed careers ๐ญ i start my new job counseling kids at a community mental health clinic on Monday. yesterday was my last shift at the grocery store that was an escape from my horrible corporate job and a sustaining force throughout grad school. itโs so bittersweet to leave the sweetest coworkers iโve ever had and the most fun iโve had at work. itโs immeasurably healing to quit a job for only good reasons. my coworkers got me a cake, everyone wrote notes in a card, and the goodbyes throughout the day made my heart swell. i even got to tell the good news to my favorite instacarter ๐ฅบ after i clocked out for the last time, my friends joined me for gelato at the cafe and we strolled the store for a final time, this time as simply a loyal customer.
