What are y'all grateful for today? Sorry it's kinda late.
Randomly bumped into an acquaintance I met through volunteer gardening at uni and we got coffee. Didn't get anyway to contact her, but I told her to come to volunteering next week. She quit last semester and treated it as a therapy session, but I'm sure the gardening leader who loveddddd her chattiness will be happy she's back.
Also grateful for actually going to in-person classes today. Even though we didn't do much and it was all intro shit, I kinda felt like achieved something just by being there and paying attention.
And the subject I failed two years ago because I didn't submit most of the assignments. The one assignment I did submit is exactly the same, just different names and slightly different scenario. There's the whole academic integrity thing that I need to uphold, but I can smash the assignment out in a couple of hours because the main ideas I have from last time.
Found cool citrus trees on campus behind a building with lots of fruit. And turtles. They're hard to get a picture of because of the reflective glass, but I will be sure to take one next time I'm there.
Overall, a good day. It's been a while since I've a day where mentally I felt okay! A stark contrast to the whole being sad over my ex moving on and lying in bed all day. I let it hurt, I caught myself, and am slowly getting out of this funk. I deserve to feel better, and am grateful that I'm finally realising that :)
Grateful for Mr Seagoon's kindness and patience.
