@vitreus:
It did SOMETHIN man! I've been so cranky today for no reason lmao

I feel like I just need to sit in a cold ass pool and drink koolaid

I also like, cold turkey cut out caffeine so that might be where a lot of this fatigue is from.
aha
I may.. have been relying on an overdose of that lately. Figured my body would heal more efficiently if I took a break tho :vanora_cry:

My job was giving out free hot dogs to the employees on saturday
and y'know... Target cafe's hot dog quality ain't the greatest. I had one once before, last year, and I remember telling myself "never again, that was too awful"

But I was so hungry, I had the shakes, and it was free food so I got one.
It even looked ill, it had red speckles on it and shit. But I ate it anyways. It made me stop shaking and despite it tasting shit like usual, I felt my energy come back for the next few hours at least.
Then surprise, surprise, I got sick several hours later. Every food poisoning symptom lol
I got through the worst of it, like once I got the food out of my system I just had dehydration and acid reflux kicking my butt. My job let me delay my schedule the next day since I still wanted to work (aka get paid, I have hour cuts coming up soon)

But now, today I'm so fatigued, I can hardly climb my stairs D': I already slept for like, 12 hours and can barely stay awake.
I don't have time to be sickkkkk I have so much to do before graduation still!

nb4: no, its not covid! my friend also got sick since he ate a hot dog from the same batch that day too. symptoms are not covid

Thanks you guys!

@0v7:
I'm not sure, I've always been told that you cant convert RGB to CMYK to get the same effect
but that never made sense to me, since its just about adjusting the CMYK hues I think, so I might try xD

After some USPS delays...
Here is the final result of all your ideas! I still need to make a pastel version xD its on the to do list I swear
The dark bits are darker than intended, but the colors are still there. The embers came out pretty vivid yellow (this photo makes them look more faded than they are)
That's what I get for not coloring in CMYK mode xD

But in the end, I like it!


Its on teepublic if you want one o vo
But my intention in this thread is just to show it off, not advertise. so don't take it that way pls, I make next to nothing from the sales

@0v7:
Yeah, I should probably look into that. xD
It'd be healthy to not have multiple heart attacks a week, I'm sure. BUT ALSO people can stop appearing around corners suddenly or standing on the other side of a door when I open it because I mean--this happens a lot :vanora_xd:

@0v7:
haha, you have a gift of awareness that I lack :vanora_xd:
well, not always. Just.. a lot of the time lmao

@0v7:
I blame it on my adhd 8D
I get hyper focused on anything I'm doing, or sometimes just my thoughts, and it tends to kinda shut down my peripheral vision/sounds
and then poof

but then like, even if I expect a sound, if its loud I'll jump anyways >>

@0v7:
Lmao yeah I tend to move around quietly, and I'm short, so people get startled by me too.
But I also startle very easily so it tends to go both ways. I've had a few instances at jobs where me and a coworker just AHH at each other in sync :vanora_xd:

:vanora_xd:
wheeze

So my front door doesn't have a peep hole
it has this window on the top part of the door that is my very non-discrete way of checking for persons.
But my height is just below the window so like... you don't see me comin' til my face pops up like HI
Usually I don't do this if I THINK there's a person standing there, so having this bearded man staring directly back at me gave us both such a startle

I laughed, apologized and thanked him. he didn't react much, went on his way down the front steps.
Turns the corner of my house
AND MY DAD IS STANDING RIGHT THERE
startles this man AGAIN

I'm so sorry sir my family is just like this :vanora_xd:

Thank you <33

still waiting for it to arrive ;v; still excited

@kitalpha hart:
Yes it is, I just have a few weeks left of classes and we'll be focused more on massage stuff and studying for the finals.
But usually the finals are similar enough to the midterms, that I don't get too anxious about them

@kitalpha hart:
I know, I just hadn't had enough time, and the way the school schedules played out was lame
But I'm taking care of my career, which takes a heck of a lot of care for myself in the near future :D
sometimes gotta sacrifice a little!

My internship hours! Last I posted about em, I was all "yay got it all locked down in a schedule, gonna graduate on time!"
BUT I just looked and somehow I'm WAY AHEAD OF SCHEDULE?
181/186 hours DONE
35/40 clinic hours DONE, and these overlap so basically one more day at the clinic and I am 100000% DONE WITH ALL THESE HOURS
They don't sound like much but, for what I'm doing and the time frame, they are many ;3;

Its been so so hard to get to this point, I almost got sick from just the sheer fatigue of constantly working.
And the days I wasted to people no-showing and then having to re-evaluate how to catch up, then I'd have to work even harder
And lose so much sleep
and I'm so tired, I've been getting so light headed and derpy
but I'll be done, and then I can focus solely on my classwork/homework, which isn't that much cause I finished all the big loads already.

This means I'll finally have half-days off (still no full days yet). Can finally rest, cook meals (eat more than once a day) and just BE ZEN for the rest of this month ;;


Thought I'd share my undying relief! You guys have kinda been with me throughout the hardest parts of this episode of my life.
The end is nigh! But the time for relaxation is finally right now
