What's Bothering You?

I'm waiting on an official document from a government agency but they're so backed up that it's taking forever. I feel sorry because I know they're short-staffed and overworked but I really need the document this month or at the beginning of next month, otherwise my job contract and visa will be canceled. I feel unlucky because people in my program who sent their documents after me received theirs already. I tried to reach out to my rep for help but they're super slow to respond. I know they're short-staffed and overworked as well so I feel sorry even asking. There are issues more pressing than mine and I get that but I'm really worried I won't get that document in time. It would suck so hard if THIS ONE DOC was the reason I couldn't get my job, after months of work for the application. Also, my stuff is still in Korea, in storage because I assumed I would go back after a couple months.
I'm living with my parents in the meantime and it's been rough to do as an adult. I'm helping around the house, paying for my own meals, etc. I feel like sometimes my mom doesn't realize I have other things to do. For example, I had to write emails related to my work and the doc all day and I still managed to dye my mom's hair, do 2 loads of laundry for the family (washed, folded and put away), wash the dishes, clean the bathroom and gather all the trash from the bins into 1 big bag. She came home and said, "Oh you should've at least taken the trash out."
 
I'm such an idiot for not organizing my prescriptions earlier. I think I've gotten my meds on time maybe once in this entire year?? Now it's almost Christmas, where medical centres will be closing, and I probably won't be able to get any before they close 🙃
 
Soo that ghost person replied but honestly I'll just tell them I found a trade which I did since they just popped back and went "lol I can adopt" uh no obviously not..

sigh. glad to be done w/ trading soon lol.
 
Soo my idiot father called today after like.. months aside some text contact because birthdays/holidays etc. and asked if I can meet up outside. Like no, I cannot, I live with my mom and if you live with someone (and especially if you haven't seen others in months etc) you aren't exactly allowed to meet persons randomly but I know he sees people. I said it was not a good idea; you're free to call/text if you want no problems but if you're gonna make me feel bad and act offended just cause I follow restrictions you're the dumbest ass in universe. Yes I dislike this pandemic restriction guide as much as anyone and if you want to meet with other that is up to you, but don't make people feel bad, regardless of relationship. And no I don't go buy food/pharmacy/things for fun. Hell I'm hardly allowed to see someone I did see from before restrictions so yeah I don't exactly like bumping into people in stores either. Jesus.

That aside well yeah pandemic suck.
 
I somehow magically gained like 2 lbs (i seemed to be losing weight but im back at 183 again smfh) and I haven't eaten anything yet today soooooo guess who's prob not gonna each much of anything at all todayy! 👍
 
^Hey you're still doing a HELL of a lot better than me! I would DREAM of weighing that much compared to my 200+ lb. self! I've got a lot of exercise to do!

I just started exercising again a few days ago, using an app that comes pup with an exercise plan to help the user lose belly fat. also been working on my arms freelance. gotta start somewhere! 183 might not sound bad but I'm only 5'3" lol. I'm gonna get back to 150 here soon.

I was gonna edit my post and say that I've found there are a few reasons for sudden overnight "weight gain": water weight, slowing metabolism due to eating less (which I have been doing), and/or exercising a lot in a short span of time (which I did two days ago). just gonna eat a light breakfast/lunch and prob skip dinner, as well as skipping my workouts. I'm physically exhausted lol.
 
my nose has been stuffy and now i can feel a tickle in my throat. it goes away during the day (i've always had the nose issue in winter every morning it goes away during the day), but i'm worried i may be catching a cold and really don't want to bring it to my grandma's so i've been taking cold meds just in case which have been helping.

my mom says that i shouldn't worry about it being covid because one of the first symptoms people have is not being able to taste anything and i still can. ;-; still a little nervous tho.

speaking of the whole "stuffy nose goes away during the day" i can already feel it going away and my throat doesn't hurt anymore. still gonna keep taking the cold meds for my and others around me's safety.

I'm so tireeeeddddd of my parents acting like idiooootttsss regarding politiiccsssss

they keep trying to tell me that thousands of "dead" people voted for biden??? well then how has literally every court Trump has gone to turned it down?? don't you think that at least one or two of them would be like "oh yeah there is some voter fraud here"???? no every single damn one has turned him down and there are even White House officials INCLUDING PENCE HIMSELF who are starting to distance themselves from Trump because he's done nothing but spend the last month and a half hopelessly disputing the election results.

my parents are also trying to claim that under Biden house mortgages will skyrocket (p sure that happened when Obama took office because of the house market crash but whatever) and they're also saying that not only will Biden heavily raise medical prices/bills but universal healthcare is a failure that could never work (even though there are many counties who use it quite successfully).

and then ofc my mom ends the argument with "you're only 21, you haven't had a chance to be kicked around by the world yet" but uhhhh I mean I'm literally going into my 8th semester of college and when I leave I'll have $25k+ in debt but idk I guess I haven't been kicked around enough just yet 🤷🤷


and it's not necessarily that I think that their political opinions aren't their own, it's just that they're often not based in fact. an opinion not based in fact is just a lie. yet they continue to believe the lies. like okay then go live in your depressed Trump-centric world, believing that Biden will destroy everything, meanwhile I'm optimistic and hope nothing but the best for him and the country.
 
i hate coming to work again, even with [x] gone, i just feel so undervalued. i don't know if it's my demeanor or what? i don't even make 70% of [x] salary and i'm doing over 70% of her job on top of my previous job ??? really it doesn't make any sense to me and quite frankly it's ridiculous how anyone considered her competent bc i'm still picking up the pieces

it's just so ironic bc they call me "the future of the company" that felt beyond awful. i'm the future yet my bonus was half of what someone that's only been here 2 months received?? after being here for 2 years. that's funny. i am still training her on stuff I'M TEACHING MYSELF.

ive entirely stopped feeling bad about leaving. i am SO, SO grateful to have an exit plan and i thank God for that. i'm just praying everything goes smoothly and classes all stay online. may can't come soon enough.
 
So we just got our Christmas tree set up and that because are grandma just moves in right before Christmas it’s sad but I love my grandma and I’m happy she got to live with us
 
this guy i've been seeing for the last year is venting to me about how he's afraid of commitment and it makes me so irritated because he knows i kind of like him and have for the past year and i know he's only talking about that fear because he found someone he wants to date

like wtf how cruel can a person be
 
what's bothering me is that people wanna be victims so bad it makes them look stupid
 
I'm glad I get four days off in a row for Christmas cause dang my neck/back/shoulder muscles NEED it. If I move a certain way it hurts my neck/shoulder area, it hurts to attempt to crack my neck, I can't bend my neck a certain way cause it hurts, I have pain in upper my shoulders that can't be massaged out like how I normally deal with it. Massaging it hurts worse and I can't stretch/crack it out either. There have been multiple times where I come home and still feel the pain, thou less cause I'm not standing as much. But there was one day recently that because I didn't lay down that day, somethin I normally do when I get home and on my off days, my neck pain STILL continued on to the next work week. Usually it happens on like day 3 of work and by day 5 it hurts constantly but I'm usually off the next 2 days. I had one day off this week so my muscles haven't recovered, esp since I was up and walking and busy over half of that day.
 
Might be a bit gross, but both of my feet hurt because some skin peeled off.

I need to give up those flats. They rub up on my feet and it's uncomfortable.
