Not doing uni or meeting
Told meeting I had uni
But I ain't doing uni
Just gonna chill
Turns out biz meeting may not be on anyways as it is a bank holiday in UK lol

[TAB]

got one here @MDT  never used it.

sort of makes sense if load it and go to work, put detergent is toxic , just a waste of power and water.

hi all

feeling a little better than normal today

thinking about achievements made etc

i guess i'm really over the careerist narrative that was always sold to me at uni. I don't even know what a "career" is. Sounds like a way get money out of people anyway.

I'm getting there and maybe that's all that matters in the end right?

i also think that keeping your mind occupied and active with important, stimulating things is crucial. Probably now more than ever as we are becoming a more technically savvy species. But we need to make wise choices in that regard too.

Glad you're feeling better. I'm just about to make dinner and watch TV tonight. Tomorrow catching up with a friend for morning tea. Not much happening here- looking after Milo. @MDT 

[MDT]

Nice. Sounds good @oceangirl I hope you have a nice time with your friend.
Been 3 months since I could do that lol
Looking forward to doing it with some and also happy that I've been able to put distance between some people and myself. I know it sounds hard, but sometimes it is the best way to avoid the more toxic type of person I guess. I hope that doesn't sound harsh

Hope milo is travelling well and taking care of you my friend lol

Yeah overall I am happy with the effort. I mean 3 years ago I would not have imagined I could be where I am at now.

Thanks @MDT Looking forward to going out tomorrow. Hopefully you will be able to do the same. I feel bad mentioning because I know you're in lockdown. Glad you're feeling better and recognizing and acknowledging what you have achieved. Well done. There is nothing wrong with choosing how much time you spend with friends or who you're closer to-  most of us choose friends that we have similar interests and likes. But also its important so that you are able to relax and enjoy the company of your friends. You would be more happier and relaxed to share your time with friends that are supportive and who appreciate you. Btw I don't think you are being harsh about not spending has much time with people that are toxic because it can be counter productive. It could cause you to be unhappy and also jeopardize your success too. Its makes life more difficult than it needs to be. 

Milo is doing well and is taking good care of me. He has been a good boy. 

I am proud of you and you have a bright future ahead of you.
