I was lucky enough to visit both Connecticut and Missouri this summer. I usually do every other, but my whole family was going to be in Connecticut so my two kids and I went just for the weekend. I got to see my younger sisters that live in Spain for the first time in two years.
This summer has flown by and I am making a point to enjoy the rest of the season as much as possible. This is the first year in the last couple that I haven’t been looking forward to the next thing. I avert my gaze every time I’m in a store that already has Halloween stuff out. Let’s just be where we are, shall we?

i've got an internship which starts in september which i'm super excited about but it's meant i've had to move back with my parents till this time next year. and while i love being back at home, it can be very suffocating cause of the severe loss of agency,
plus my core friend group at home is more or less extinct as well as the plans we made for summer. but a smaller circle has come out of it, we see each other once a week which is really lovely and we've been on the arts and crafts grind recently. on the days i don't see them or my other friends, i feel ridiculously adrift. july was like a big sleepwalking episode just a very inert atmosphere so i've decided to make august more memorable, which has been going alright so far.
i haven't got a summer job so i've just been spending and now i'm kind of worried about money but like that's a constant worry i guess and just nervous overall about the future in general cause of all the upheaval. not sure which masters to do, if i should even bother etc. some of my friends have moved and are moving abroad for uni or just live pretty far away from me. it's been an ok summer so far but yeah idk.

Like many who came before me I also have been busy experiencing life™️ I went camping with like 25 other lesbians, had an entire no tech day(phone died) and it changed me fundamentally. I work in digital marketing during the week so the thought of my phone being completely inaccessible is beyond my imagination. Having now been able to just completely unplug made me realize how little work life balance I have and so i’ve been working hard to change that.
Outside of that, the camping trip also introduced me to a lot of new people I’m particularly excited to get to know. I felt like I was able to connect with several others for a wider variety of reasons than usual, tapping into even more niche interests to create bonds with new friends.
I’ve become tired of being on the grind 24/7 and having to crunch activities in between or before shifts. I told my boss at the restaurant that i’ll be cutting back, which hopefully means i’ll have a full day off once a week starting in September.
I still have plans to get a cat in the fall, aiming for October as a safe bet. Will be asking more cat related questions here soon!
I also learned some shit and keeping learning shit about my family that continues to age me at a more rapid pace than usual. There are the horrors, but we persist!
I also got a tat this weekend :) I posted it on instagram and a friend from college that I had lost touch with told me they got Haku in the same spot 🥲♥️
Anyway, missing all the PI-friends i’ve made and sending you all hugs, especially those who have been experiencing life too
