oh bless you this sounds like a lot! but I'm glad you can recognise the progress you're making, that's really incredible🩷 thank you for sharing and being so open🫶🏾
hehehe i loved these!! that second little joy might be my favourite😌 omg soulcycle I've heard so much about that's a goal & no frozen blackberries I'm crying I feel your pain. thank you for sharingg🩷🩷 and start writing your substack!! no excuses!!
What you said about not reading a lot of books but reading a lot of articles, longreads etc >>> The art of reading doesn't solely comprise of reading books. There's more to it and a lot of joy to be found in other mediums like essays, articles, etc and not to mention less time commitment.
"They were right about 26/27 – I’m feeling like I'm becoming more me every day" I feel this so deeply in my soul. I have never felt more unapologetically and wonderfully me than when I hit 30. I'm so excited for what it'll be like as I get older.
some little joys: this Substack (so glad I found it!!), I've found my rhythm in journaling, I took up crocheting, I'm developing a taste in horror movies
some little sorrows: it's cold and rainy where I live and I miss the sun :(
i love it! getting older doesn't seem so scary anymore :') love your little joys too hehe & i hope you see some sunshine soon! thank you for sharing <33
Oh I HEAR YA about the clothing sizes and it’s just not okay. A number is just a number, right? In theory but in practice, it can cause so much anxiety and body image issues. They really need to address this in the fashion industry and change the language of dress sizes 👊
they absolutely do!! it took me years to not care about the numbers because they literally mean nothing anymore. still annoying to pick up 3 sizes of the same thing when trying things on though haha
little joys:
i can buy new books this week :)
i love substack
i started a new show
my writing is expanding
i like to think of the ocean throughout the day
my mom and i laugh a lot

little sorrows:

little joys:
I’ve been exercising and it’s making me happy (SoulCycle!!)
I found this Substack
I found a meditation/Pomodoro track that really helps me focus (finally)
I’ve been eating bagels with peanut butter and banana!

My dissertation is kicking my butt :(
It’s hard not getting overwhelmed by that

I haven’t actually written anything for my own Substack yet (but I want to!!)

Love to see those little joys. So happy that you’re now a Brtkinstock’s girlie, sounds fun.
Little joys:

- Spain won the Eurocup! It’s nice to live which you finally wanna support and feel proud of lol
- the beautiful weather we’re having! Blue skies every day :’)
- back to being a reading girlie and enjoying my books!
Little sorrows:
- pre-period blues
- lack of motivation towards work
- not having strength or motivation to workout (haven’t worked out in a week and can definitely feel the muscle beginning to deteriorate)
