i taught myself to lucid dream pretty young (~8) and subsequently took advantage. lucid dreaming is kind of like focusing, like you know the feeling you get when you just get to work after you’ve commuted when you’re finally conscious again after you zoned out in your commute, that’s kinda the feeling when you start lucid dreaming. anyway, so i was in this dream when i was probably 15 and it was a chipmunk war of some sort except i was a chipmunk (the details aren’t really important) but i was like ok time to start having agency but my body wouldn’t let me. like i literally could not force my body to do something. it was the most surreal experience bc i could think and i knew i was in a dream but i literally could not control my body and i couldn’t wake up and when i finally did i almost started crying it was so fucking insane and odd. it hasn’t happened since and i can’t really find anyone else who has had a similar experience online. anyway something devious happens that night.

I used to lucid dream a lot, not by my own volition most of the time, just kind of happened. But last night it happened out of nowhere and my favorite thing to do is FLY. I wonder what that says about my reality and the dreams I want to achieve..

if you think you’re the smartest person in your friend group you’re weird and annoying. the best friendships come out of mutual awe and respectability. be friends with people who make you want to know more things.

i will never be in a situationship in the same way i will never be in the land of oz--it's just not real. i think using the word doesn't let you self-reflect in a way that is truly helpful. i was telling my friend about the awkwardness of seeing an exhook up in a relationship bc i thought we had mutual feelings and she said "oh your exsituationship" and i thought (for the first time) no, we had clear boundaries i just got my hopes up. my point is that instead of using situationship as a catch-all for not quite dating or wtv failed prospect, take it as a moment to reflect on what exactly went wrong. idk if this is profound or not

i’m averaging 14,000 steps a day for the past year, why? i walk everywhere. at one point i was averaging 16,000 (this is my flex). you get to explore a city and now when people ask me for directions i can actually tell them bc i’ve gotten really good at knowing where i am. if it takes less than an hour for me to walk from a to b, i will walk. if i have enough time i’ll walk 2+ hours just to see someone. just put on a good playlist/pod and go go go!!
