What's Bothering You?

I'm not sure if I'll manage to participate in all the activities of the Event. Now the only thing left for me is to create a Stocking, and I really want to make it, but I might not have enough time. And also because of that the outcome might not be the greatest, but something is better than nothing, right?

Spoiler: I’m genuinely worried for the future

The news is on the background and they’re talking about the death penalty. My grandma is talking about how there should be a death penalty for LGBT people and anybody in the country that is not American.

It also wouldn’t surprise me if this actually happens, so I guess I’ll be pretending to be the gender I was born as for the next few years.

I've foolishly put off working on my art entries for the various Christmas events here on the forums and am trying to cram them all into today and tomorrow.

This will come as no surprise to anyone, but god, hands are so hard to draw.

TBT has been mostly unusable for me since yesterday. I have no idea why. It acts like I have no internet connection and it only works if I sit around and wait for a minute or so, but will go back to not working within 2 or so minutes.
Every time I come back and check on it, it's not loading, forcing me to wait or give up.

Edit: Seems to have fixed after 24 hours. Really strange occurrence.

Not my feet still hurting

I'm legit so freaking tired of this. It's starting to affect me mentally.

I just freaking hate everything.

My relationship with caffeine is so unhealthy. I keep compulsively drinking tons of coffee throughout the day. I know I get super anxious and buzzed from the caffeine, but I can't bring myself to stop. It truly feels like an addiction.

today i dreamt of my insecurities.
the lingering thoughts telling me i wasnt enough, that i was weak and sensitive and this isn’t how i was supposed to be. they wanted me to be strong; instead all i do is cry.

I’m currently on the train traveling up north to visit my sister for the holidays and it was delayed almost three and a half hours from my hometown station. The worst part is I have been up since 5 this morning to make sure that I would be at the station by 7:30 to catch the train which was supposed to arrive at 8:11. My entire budget for the entire trip has been mostly used today alone just buying food and coffee to not fall asleep and missing my train/stop.

You turned out exactly the way you're supposed to be. It takes all kinds of people in this world. Even bad people help us appreciate good people more. We need sensitive people to remind aloof people to slow down for a second and experience the moment.

Being sensitive isn't weakness. It makes you better at picking up on what others are going through and being able to help them. Don't compare yourself to others because everyone is different. It's like seeing all the squirrels, lizards, and other animals climbing trees, and feeling like a failure because you're a goldfish and can't do that.

On top of the feet hurt.... I am now sick :3
with a cold.
I can feel it coming. I feel so weak, lethargic, and hot/cold, achey. Oooough...

One library in the area had a copy of a Christmas movie I was planning to watch tomorrow. That library is a bit farther away, so I had it sent to a library closer to me last week and was going to pick it up on Saturday. Saturday arrives and I go there to discover that it is closed due to a water main break. Okay, fine. They're always closed on Sunday, so I go out tonight. Turns out all of the libraries are closed until Thursday. Cool.

Also unfortunately missed out on both opportunities for a White Feather from this year's 12 Days of Christmas. Not only winning the drawing but getting the particular collectible was always highly unlikely anyway, but still, lol.

Bleh.

Honestly, just tired of my time not being valued. However, that is just how the world works. Most people suffer this sadly.
Also the great urge to have an empty and highly organized room, which just isn't realistic, is driving me crazy. Tired of clutter, and visual busy-ness everywhere. Is the bombardment of ads and logos getting to me? This spring I hope to go through all my clothing and replace most of it with plain colored tshirts from a bulk store. Maybe I sound crazy but honestly I just want some simplicity and shirts that aren't too big. I'm just too tired and I don't know how to communicate that in a more detailed way.
For now, organizing stuff in Stardew valley will have to do for scratching that itch of decluttering and organizing and making an area look simplistic.
