Digital Journal Entry
Hello world! I don’t know what this is for, but I think I want to have some more structure to my life and I want to write more. It’s nice to journal my life because it’s nice to see what’s going right and what’s going wrong, and also if I do it digitally I can stick it on my website and it looks more complete. Always on the grind.
I don’t know how to actually structure these journal entries though, maybe I should describe my day and how I felt? Today was quite lovely to be honest. I got a bus to Swinton and got my first laser tattoo removal thing, and dear lord it was painful, but the bus ride was not. I think buses are terrifying, like what do I ask for, and what if the bus doesn’t stop at my stop? I hate the constant anxiety of waiting for my bus stop too. Anyway, the actual bus ride itself was lovely, it’s nice to get out of the city sometimes and enjoy the peaceful countryside towns, and the laser tattoo removal lady was such a lovely person. We had a good yap about various things like Japan and tattoos and stuff. It was nice, until the horrid pain of the laser brought me right back to earth. Overall experience was good! It feels nice to, yet again, be stepping closer to the big move abroad. Like it felt real when I bought the ticket, and it felt real when I got the job, and it continued to feel real when my hand got zapped for half an hour.
After the tattoo removal I went to work, not realising how much of a hinderance my hand was going to be. I was not on top form, which always makes me feel a bit awful because I do take pride in my work. I’d like to think I’m good at my job, and I don’t want to bother the people above me by not being good enough. Maybe that’s an issue for another time. I did work though, and I did pretty well. I was fairly busy, and then I left. I had a few drinks at one of my locals, and then went home. It was quite uneventful. I feel bad drinking a lot recently, like it’s just a waste of time and money. Especially alone. Maybe a part of me thinks I will just magically meet the woman of my dreams while I’m sat at the bar being all cool and mysterious. In reality I probably just look a bit sad, and then I go home alone. Oh well, we move. After that I got home and watched a few episodes of Attack On Titan Season 4, then finished a uni assignment, then started this journal. AOT Season 4 is great so far, it does cliffhangers way too often but just as a general story it’s so fascinating and constantly goes in directions I did not expect. It’s a great story (so far).
Anyway that’s my yap, I will try my best to keep this regular but that will be a big challenge. Now I slumber.
