Welcome to my web diary!

So... it's been a while huh? But so many good things have happened, so I feel the tone of my journal will change for the better.

First things first, I completed and handed in my final assignments for my degree and... I got a 2:1 I am SO happy! Considering I started during covid, a house move, personal problems, adjusting to new meds and being diagnosed with anxiety and OCD... I am so proud of myself. I now have a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Arts and Humanities (English Language) and I can't believe it... I will have to book graduation soon so I hope I'm able to get tickets as it's first come first serve an I don't want to wait! Plus I also need to find out about photographers and graduation gowns... :)

I applied a couple of days ago to study an MA in Applied Lingusitics with Open University... fingers crossed! Am I crazy? Yes.

Another nice nugget of news is that I have a job, and have done for a few months. Retail, and I've met some lovely people through it I would consider friends. It's been great for my anxiety, mental health, self confidence... and having more money helps! It's really been a good but mad few months - if you'd have told me a few months ago this is where I would be I wouldn't have believed you one bit. Plus, the Sertraline is working absolute wonders for me and I wish I would have started them sooner!

I'd like to pick up some hobbies, I have four more days off work and I want to tackle making (or starting to make) my neocities website. I also want to do more art and writing, and reading. I'm excited!

In other news, I've randonly become allergic to hair bleach, which is a travesty as I am always changing my hair colour. I've also had some problems with tomatoes, some cider flavours (???) and some materials, like my smart watch strap. So I'll have to book an allergy test for sure, but first I have a cervical smear so let's take it once step at a time haha.

I'm also absolutely hating the heat... Sertraline is making me drip with sweat and it's awful. I can't wait for autumn/winter!

Anyway, that's my big update. I hope to post more from now. I might make a post of my favourite gaiaonline avatars that I have made.

Until next time!
