daily log for the day
alright been a bit since i made any updates. and im sorry abourt that. currently i just finished college as of last week so i was super focused and busy on that. now to do some housekeeping. currently now that i am out of college, ive been looking for jobs. so far not really a lot but ive been applying to most stuff i can find that is entry level.
i bleached my hair once again, went back to blond. i also have been trying to keep fit and active by doing stuff daily. such as walking or using my eliptical. today it was the eliptical.
today was mostly uneventful. went out to get some bloodwork done, then went to the thrift and just kinda milled about, found a neat gps for ten dollars so thats good. set it up too. also got a neat keyboard for my work computer, if only i had work and motivation to use it.
been thinking a lot about what i want to do if i dont have a job by next month, might go off and live in the woods for a bit by myself. I have the land and cabin already i would just need to do some prepping of materials to bring. might start working on this seriously. bring my chickens with me too maybe, unsure i dont really eat eggs.
i have of course my creature comforts at home, but i can make due without most of them anyways. i think one of the things that stops me from doing this is my partner. who still lives in town. it may be too much for him for me to just walk into the woods and not return til a month, tho i could just drive and see him at some points. but it would defeat the purpose if i can go back into town any time i wanted.
i think if i was to do this seriously i would be able to. just need to prepare the right things to live there for a month. in my head ive been calling it my month long exile (self imposed). might be good for my head just to be able to focus on my basic needs and not things that are in modern life. at most i would have to come in for supplies or possibly medications.
the more i plan and think the more this plan seems like it could work. just unsure if i would be able to commit myself to something like that. thats the main issue.
i just want to avoid becoming a drag or a neet or anything. cause i dont really have any reasons to go outside these days, i usually went outside for college reasons. now there really isnt much a point to leave my house besides maybe running errands. even then i could get other people to run my errands, i dont have money to spend on myself any more.
if i am lucky next month i may have a job. may is when most of the stuff i applied to closes and jobs start running. so if i have no work by may, i really will have nothing to do besides rot away in my house. i always figured college would allow me to get work easier, or at least open doorways for me to do so. so far it really hassn't which kinda sucks.
i havent been picky with jobs incase anyone is curious. i have been applying to meanial labour, as well as high school level jobs. its mostly trying to get work in my town that sucks. its dying and there isnt anyone hiring much these days.
my best hope right now is a dishwashing job i applied to a couple days ago, before that my hopes was on a yard worker for a marina, and before that it was some other job i don't remember, something like a wildlife tech.
regardless, i just want a job at this point.
on a lighter note, most of everything else has been ok. been reading a bit, playing some games. getting back into animal crossing city folk. i also picked up some new shows to watch on netflix so i've been doing that when i have free time (which is most of the time anyways).
im thinking of trying to read outside a bit more, or going to the library to read so that way i have an excuse to leave the house. my library is in walking distance which is good because i dont need to use or waste gas driving somewhere.
honestly i need hobbies that make me do stuff that takes up large chunks of time, that are also not expesive. so far its just been reading, and walking. i want to take up gardening if i dont get a job i guess.
told my parents i'd help them make theirs since they are old now and have a hard time bending down to dig at stuff. they said they'd be willing to pay me so at least its a small source of income. i can sell my eggs too. maybe i should get a rooster if i move out to the woodlot. sell my eggs to people later.
honestly what do people do when they have too much free time? what do i do as the "unemployed friend" like? how do people fill their days.
