I stayed at an Airbnb for a friend’s bday last night and had a great time singing along to Road to El Dorado (and kept everyone up with my snoring). I’m back home, cleaning myself and the apartment and will shortly be taking a Tears of the Kingdom break.

Adding that to my TBR. I got back into reading 2 years ago, it’s helped my mental health so much by replacing social media. Hope your week calms down＼(^- )

I’ve had great fun working through Crafting Interpreters (in Haskell and Zig, which were both new to me), and discovering a lot of new music (underscores, ethel cain, xiu xiu and more). Other than that, life’s been rough, but I’m lucky to have quite a bit of free time recently at least.

I’m from Lemmy.ml and replying to this! Isn’t federation great?

…my week is going well, btw. Getting some Qdoba today for lunch with the bf.

I’m doing pretty great. Spent all weekend volunteering at pride events and meeting lots of amazing people. Been having fun hanging around beehaw too so that’s been a positive as well 😊

After a couple of months doing photosynthesis, my ADHD medication finally decided to allow me to study this morning. But no more than 90 minutes. Now I’m again in my endless scrolling and doing nothing productive.

Besides that, I’m trying to be more active in kbin.social / lemmy instances to create more content through comments or post and engage, knowing the inevitable doom from Reddit (although I have an user on sopuli since last year).

idk, i’ve been stuck between a rock and a hard place for awhile but this weeks been rougher than usual. Weirdly I’m feeling hopeful for the future though, maybe it has to get worse before it gets better.

Oof I’ve hit the under two week deadline for my final portfolio in school and I’m permastressed. I’ve been finding myself spending hours playing The Long Dark as the unforgiving canadian wilderness is easier than just working on my school work 🫠

Think I’ll have to share in calling this week total chaos as the last few days I’ve been moving across the country to pursue an internship at NASA. It’ll be my first week at work there so here’s hoping it goes well. I also have a class I’m currently taking with an exam tomorrow. Very stressful indeed.

Honestly, finding this place has been the highlight of my month! This week has been crazy busy at work. About 4 different projects all started going on at once on top of my normal work load and it’s been a bit draining. But, i put in for a couple vacation days a month ago and am going to be spending it at a friend’s doing lán parties and just general hanging out.

I hope all y’all’s is going well! Or will soon be!

Woke up at 3am and couldn’t fall back asleep, but it’s a freaking GOOD day, got some caffeine, not a lot of meetings at work today, and the Lemmy community grows, I’m loving it here

I was just approved in the community, so still exploring.

My university exams are going on so I have been busy with that and only 6 days left before my college life ends (temporarily at least) and it’s daunting for me how adult corporate life would be. I am already making a list of things to do in vacations like joining a gym, starting to read a book that was pending since past several months(any readers of Red Rising by Pierce Brown here??), learning guitar and so on…

I am over all the place, but happy.

I’ve had better weeks. One of my guinea pigs who has been sick for a while got sick enough that she had to be put down, with the added bonus that this became obvious about 15 minutes before I had to go meet my new landlord to pick up the keys to my new apartment. On the plus side, moving into the new apartment has been easy, I thought I would need to do a lot of back and forth to move stuff before the movers come to take the big things, but seems like that’s mostly done. Also, my other guinea pig is doing well despite the loss of her friend, so that is good also.

I’m waging a losing war against the squirrels for my flower bed. So far, I have saturated the area with Irish Spring soap shreds and sprayed a mix of Repel All/Tobasco sauce on everything. The smell is nauseating.

Does anyone know if those sonic repellant machines actually work?
