HOO BOY (big life update)
8 years ago
WELL IT SURE HAS BEEN SOME MONTHS since my last journal
i honestly don't want to go into a lot of detail here but..... things have been pretty messy; a lot has happened; what the heck
y'all probably want to know how my time in Art School has been, right? the short answer is: I Dropped Out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
the program wasn't quite what i'd hoped for, early morning classes were killing me, i was falling behind..... and then all the college professors in ontario went on strike for 5 weeks. and the colleges offered a full tuition refund to anyone who wanted to drop out after that, so of course i took them up on that offer
so yeah, i'm not a student anymore. might go back to school next year but i'm definitely taking at least a semester off. over the next few months i'm just gonna work part time and look into what i can do with my life, and maybe join a local social group and/or do some volunteering?? i dunno; it's still only been a couple weeks since i dropped out, and work has been busy so i haven't had much time/energy to think about anything else
aaaaand in the middle of all this, my parents are splitting up! my mom actually kicked my dad out of the house, about a month ago!! it's a long story so i won't get into it but things are super awkward right now. thankfully we have a good support system, and my mom still has my sister and me living with her, but life's gonna be rough for a while
yeah long story short there have been a lot of big changes in my life over the past few months and i'm really not entirely sure what the future will bring!!
but things are actually looking pretty okay right now, and i'm really thankful for everything i have. it's all kind of a mess at the moment but it's gonna be fine, i think
