journaling

getting back in the habit of using the bujo for bullet journaling, and getting a better feel for what sorts of things actually work for me and what i want to track. been committing to using up more of my sticker stash, which has been making me really happy! i love looking over finished entries and seeing how cutely i decorated them! yayay

health

this year, my depression came and slam dunked me super hard into the ground, but once I realized it, I’ve been able to meet with my doctor and try out some new meds, which seem to be working out well for me! it’s almost time to check back in with a therapist too, so we’ll see how that goes. physically, nothing much to report - still have all my debilitating autoimmune illnesses, but I’m doing my best! winku

I’ve been distancing myself from social media somewhat - i’m still on fedi and using instant messaging, but i’ve drifted away from using other social media services because I think I’ve been putting my introverted self through too much socialization, dedbat to the detriment of my mental well-being, so we’re taking a step back from that stuff for awhile. heart

projects

i recently completely went through my inventory of visual novels and updated my vndb to remove a bunch of old stuff I wasn’t actually interested in from my wishlist (turns out adding everything with the ‘maid’ tag is not a viable strategy for finding VNs you like, past me! lol) anyway, doing all this “summer cleaning,” if you will, made me remember what sorts of VNs I really enjoy and rekindled my interest in reading through some of my backlog!

my motivation for working on this website has been in a low period over the past few months or so, but I’m gonna chalk that up to the depressive spell I’ve been in and hopefully things are on the up-and-up, and we can resume a somewhat regular posting schedule.

I’ve been drawing more! I bought a small pack of miniature (I think A6 size?) sketchbooks and have been trying to draw something at least once a week, and also bought some art supplies (ty, back to school sales! aww) and have been coloring more as an easy, low-effort stress reliever. one of these days I’ll document some of my sketches/doodles and update my rkgk.
