I’m bored.. + some random thoughts

@rav3n yes, i'm currently in one of those facebook groups and it's helped me a lot with knowing which areas the inspectors regularly camp at, and unfortunately one of the areas they regularly camp at (whether its the train station or the tram stops when catching a certain tram) are those areas that do require me to get off that specific train station in order to walk back to my new accomodation (those $300 ones if I chose to move to there)

As much as I wish I know how to ride a bike or ride a scooter/e-scooter/e-bike instead of taking public transport to avoid them, I know it's definitely impossible for me to be able to walk from my parents house/the CBD all the way to the new area (where my 'possible' new accomodation will be at). I've already saved money from not touching on my myki (but yet I still see my savings continuously go down 🥲) as I don't commute that often these days.

amazing, you're already on top of those groups! @Blackcloud ahh yep that frustrating still!

ooo now that you mention e-scooter and stuff, that would actually be a good option - but ofc do consider safety first!! i've driven an e-scooter a couple of times, in my opinion its much easier than bikes n stuff, especially when you're riding around public places... but also like all bikes/scooters in the CBD area, gotta be careful of bumping into ppl/hurting yourself. maybe you and your support worker can practice to ride one together? even just for fun, it's a nice experience too.

savings have a way of disappearing in an instant, hey 🙃 also do you have much planned for this weekend?

@rav3n ooo great idea, perhaps I may ask her about it!!

not much really, just doing the usual stuff including doing my assignments. oh, and I'm gonna be going to that forest therapy social group on Sunday and I'm pretty nervous about it hehe since its gonna be a group event with a support worker.

what about you?

EDIT: oh, and to give you an update, so apparently my training with the digital crisis supporter role is gonna be on 2nd June, so thats 3 months away lol. Apparently that date is their earliest date of the training cohort so I had to pick that one. The training goes for 8-12 weeks.

@MissGremlin @MJG017 @creative_writer @Appleblossom @Till23 I have a group event that I’m gonna be going tomorrow morning and I’m very nervous about it now thinking about it. It’s an event that the support worker of the NDIS-affiliated organisation has hosted. I hope everyone I’m gonna be seeing tomorrow for the first time is nice. 🙏

@Blackcloud deep breaths, you got this ❤️. I hope it all goes well and that you meet some lovely people 😊

Thank you @MissGremlin it’s even more nerve wracking when that day comes closer and it’s like suddenly you feel so nervous to the point that you even think about not planning to show up there during the day and let it pass, or ask if you can postpone it. But I’m not gonna do that of course, it’s just that kind of feeling that I keep getting whenever the actual thing is gonna happen the next day or so.

@Blackcloud completely understand. I know it's nerve wracking and those thoughts will be there but I really hope that once you are there that feeling passes and you can have a good time.

@MissGremlin Hopefully. I’m actually looking forward to the event itself since it’s a forest therapy/forest bathing event and from what the support worker told me about it last time, I’m quite excited to experience it.

I really want to continue working on my art portfolio today, especially the drawings (it’s different but more complex compared to what I showed you and others last time) but whenever I work on them within these past 2 days, I get tired during the process but luckily I was able to complete 1 of them and am now working on my 2nd one. Need to do 2 more (drawings) left so that’s gonna be even more..😴😴😴😴😴

@Blackcloud it definitely sounds exciting and like an amazing experience.

It sounds like it takes a bit out of you but I'm sure it's also very rewarding once you have completed them. Just remember to take some breaks when you need to, listen to your body and don't overdo things.

@Blackcloud I hope you are able to go along, Forest bathing sounds like a great thing to try out.

I love being in nature, I find it helps me to be more at peace with things.

Don’t forget it’s highly likely that other people in the group will also be reticent to go. Most people find doing a new thing with people they don’t know difficult.
