just here to check up on y'all. i know people use the chatbox more, but i don't care lol. things have been pretty wacky lately, but i've endured new experiences over the past several months i came back here. i went to london for the first time to see a friend from 21st - 26th june. i arrived on the 21st and i went to see the back to the future musical on the west end, it was incredible. amazing graphics, the acting and songs were super good and i loved the humour throughout all of it. on the 22nd, i went down to eastbourne for the day, it was really pretty. as soon as i got there, we went for lunch and headed down to the beach for an hour. originally was going to go shopping but it was 5pm when we headed back up to the station so it was too late since most shops were closed there. went to a pizza place for dinner and chilled at home. on the 23rd, we went to thorpe park. discovered i have a fear of heights and rollercoasters, should've stayed on the teacups (also gave myself a migraine from the rides). 24th, we headed down to brighton for the day, went on a shopping spree where i had a little incident where i fell down the escalator (i'm fine, just have permanent visible scars on my leg) and then we did some karaoke. 25th, went to legoland where we did *try* to go on some rides but most of them were closed so we only really went on a few. bought a lego set and then did an escape room later that evening. we escaped btw. 26th, i stayed home all day, left at 8:00 pm and came home around 10/11 pm. trip was cool, fun experience and i'm glad i got out of my comfort zone (also taught me to get new shoes). before i left for london, i applied for college to get my english and math qualifications and i got in. i start around this september/october. i also requested at the open university to study computer science and a second subject (i chose psychology for my second) and hope to be an ICT teacher in the future. i dreamt of being an actress, but it never worked out and i finally got myself to accept that it's not meant for me so i moved onto something i loved doing the most, which is editing (and computing). this november, i'm heading down to london again to see beabadoobee live (one of my favourite artists alongside george salazar, which as of typing this, i'm meeting george today). in august, i'm seeing grease with my father and seeing dear evan hansen this september. i started producing music again this year, it's on all music platforms and the name is 'midnight depression'. though, i did decide that it's not for me after several songs. i still make edits, and it's going well (so far). i've also started therapy this year and good lord it's EXPENSIVE, but it's worth it. i've been doing somewhat better with my mental health but not fully. that's all, folks
