been looking for a full time job for nearly 8 months now and just havent got anywhere despite 2 final stage interviews. feeling also like a bum and like im stuck in between periods of time. ready to move on from living with my parents at home but also not yet experienced in working life etc despite several loved ones and friends my age being more than experienced. trying to keep sane by being grateful for the amazing support system and living space I have rn and manifesting that the time will come soon

not counting college because you every either move into a dorm or commute. but after being at my first job for about a year, i finally moved into an apartment. this also happened in autumn 2020. i have been in my own living quarters since. if you feel the need to leave and spread your wings, do it. but make sure you are financially sound to do it. have your savings, don’t splurge on a living arrangement you can’t afford, buy secondhand instead of new furniture, etc.

i'm about to enter my final year as a teenager in a few months but just overall i'd say all the decisions i've had to make where i am i'm officially an adult cause our legal age is 18 but yeah being in my second year of uni trying to figure out where i wanna go with my life what direction i want to take and then trying to figure life out with my friends and doing the most just so i can see them it finally feels like we're all adulting and going our separate ways in life and it hasn't really set in yet cause i just wanna be a kid and do nothing but sleep all day lol but it is what it is we move on and embrace all these new things coming with being legal/an "adult"

as a 25 year old who had just turned 21 right before the pandemic hit i often have very similar feelings that i missed out on a formative time of my youth and that im “behind” where i should be right now (especially in terms of self/identity development), what’s helps me is i try to zoom my thoughts waaayyyy out and think about how when im older someday ill prob envy 25 year olds too and then i decide to just try my hardest to live in the moment forever and cherish being here in the first place cause in the grand scheme of things aging is a gift!!!! easier said than done of course but this is what helps me

helps me to appreciate nature in a way i havent felt in ages. feels like im making art for arts sake again rather than for a purpose which is really refreshing and grounding

i was on it for a few months and i thought it was wack at the time because i found the conversations stale and hard to maintain without having like 2 week gaps in between msgs. butttttt after the first meaningful and fun convo i ever had on hinge, I ended up meeting her the next night - my gf who ive been with ever since! <3. now i like the concept as i think all it takes is one good person and a bit of luck to change ur life through it

a 50 page physical and digital fashion magazine designed solely for people with visual impairments. a years worth of work was definitely worth it and i am super proud of it even though it was finished last year and i am still yet to release it to the world
