My life sucks

Hello @Cuddlebear, yesterday was definitely hard to get through for many reasons. Unfortunately today isn't that much better as I've had very little sleep, I've only had 8 hours of very broken sleep in the last 3 days. Not having physical human contact can be hard, but it's nice to have the online community here.

How are you going today?

Hello @Blackcloud, how are you doing sweet? Sending you hugs ❤️

@MissGremlin @Cuddlebear hi guys, i'm pretty busy right now, i'll respond to you guys later on today when I can 🙂

thats it @Cuddlebear , one step at a time my friend 😍

i am feeling very tired today , been awake since 4am , so i think today can be a lazy day

a little tip to put a @ in front of members names so they can get your message

what things do you enjoy doing

@MissGremlin @Cuddlebear @Shaz51 I’m feeling ok today I think. Had a feedback session with the lecturer this afternoon and had to redo 3 drawings. I’ve finished one, but the other two I don’t know if I’m able to do it. Plus, I feel like it’s impossible to do them based on the complexity (that’s what my brains telling me right now)

good thing I won’t continue to study fine/visual arts after this

@Blackcloud was going to ask how it went with your lecturer, having to redo 3 drawings is tough. It's great that you have done one and I believe you can do the other ones. Take your time with them and if you need to have a break to refocus then that's ok. You've got this ❤️

@MissGremlin Thanks ❤️ will see how I’ll go with them in the next few days. Though at the same time, I really don’t think I can do them at all 🥲 perhaps it’s best I should give up on them and submit the portfolio as is 😅

I find it so easy to give up on things that I know are impossible and difficult to do as that’s usually the mindset that I have.

Hi @Jynx

@Shaz51 That was a fantastic tip! Thank you!

How are you feeling after taking it easy today? Do you find the evenings help to settle your mind? Or are they hard?

I enjoy hanging out with my seeing guide dog. He is very clever and he’s truly such a sweet and loving fur baby. I also like to do craft but I find it hard to do when I’m feeling rubbish. I like going to a cafe and having a coffee and chat if someone is around and available to go with. I’m a bit limited with stuff due to my eye sight and hearing loss. I love seeing art. I am on NDIS and my support worker takes me and describes the art to me. I really enjoy sitting at the local Port Philip Bay. It’s very relaxing and I love the smell of the ocean. One of my favourite things is hanging out with my adult daughter when she’s available. I love poetry and books. Movies and tv shows are good too but can be inaccessible. What things do you like?

Hey @Blackcloud how you going?

@Jynx I’m fine, just not very willing to work on my drawings for the portfolio assessment as they’re impossible to do. I had a feedback session with the lecturer today though and I only had to redo 3 drawings, one of them I’ve finished, but the other two I don’t think I can do them. I should just give up and not redo them and just leave it at that.

good thing I’m not gonna continue studying fine/visual arts after this semester 🙂
