Dear diary. . .

10/09/26 ⋆。𖦹°⭒˚。⋆ Feeling: Frustrated

I am actually so bored of summer! I couldn't find a job this summer so I've had so much free time, which seems like fun until you're 3 months in to off time from university. Feeling quite useless, especially with university starting so late!

I'm going in to my final year studying law this year with a focus on human rights. Graduating is terrifying, but I'm excited for this year as I've finally started getting treated for depression after all these years. And I landed a role writing for an online law magazine! I'm going to be a journalist, which is way way way more exciting than anything else I've been doing.

My birthday is in a couple of days and I'm turning 21. I don't know why it's such a landmark year in the UK when it doesn't mean anything, but it's still quite exciting.

11/09/26 ⋆。𖦹°⭒˚。⋆ Feeling: Happy!

Today was so fun! I went out with my best friend to the city after she got back from vacation. I've missed hanging out with her as I don't have many IRLs friends to go out with. She just gets me so it's so fun.

We hit up PopMart, of course. My adoration for blind boxes is absolutely unbidden, but my luck has looked up recently. Usually I end up with my least favourite (but I never buy a box if I straight up hate an option, I refuse to overconsume too much), but today I got four in a row of what I wanted! I love my little Nyota and Chaka. Though, I hate how the workers will stalk you around the store. We go out for lunch and shop around a bit, it's very fun.

My friend bought my birthday present today, so I had to go stand in the corner of the store and stare at the wall while she bought it so I wouldn't have the surprise spoiled. Quite embarrassing, but very sweet of her to be so concerned with the fun of a surprise she insisted it, so I stared at Miku figures like a numpty.

Generally just a very fun day after feeling a bit dire yesterday! I love my friends!!!

12/09/26 ⋆。𖦹°⭒˚。⋆ Feeling: Tired

It's finally rainy here, autumn has come. It leaves me so tired everytime it comes around with little more to do. I suppose I could read or fill my time, but I just feel so pooped. My great aunty and cousin came to visit today and it was nice to see them, but still today feels so boring.

I'll just spend my day coding, maybe actually pick up my book. The start of the year I started off on a roll but now even with so much free time, I haven't read that much. I refuse to lose my monthly streaks on GoodReads though!

16/09/26 ⋆。𖦹°⭒˚。⋆ Feeling: Silly

Hung out with my IRL best friend again! We went out for a drive to go pick up my birthday cake - which is red velvet (yum). Honestly it's just so fun going out for drives with her and bullshitting. Eating shitty food with someone I love and having a giggle is the best thing ever!

Got a cute new shirt, which is this sort of knitted t-shirt thing, that totally goes along with my style as it skews more 60's-ish. It's not entirely intentional for it to be stuck in any sort of period but I'm an absolute whore for wide legged jeans and my cropped leather jacket. A leather jacket which I copped for free, actually! Shout out to my mother for hoarding good quality 2010's clothes until I could fit them, so I now have a real leather jacket from before clothing quality went to total shit.

Back home?
