So I totally crashed out this month, but I think I’m finally bouncing back. Life just got really overwhelming for a bit. Then I realised I just need to care less and have more fun, and that’s really been working out for me recently. So here’s what’s been going on:
- Met up with some friends that I haven’t seen since college. It was so nice to catch up with them.
- Went on a boat ride on the Hudson. It was beautiful and the boat went right up to the Statue of Liberty which was very cool.
- Went home for Father’s Day. Got to see my parents and brother and just had a really nice time.
- Tried my first hip hop class. 10/10 loved it. I’m terrible and have no sense of rhythm or groove, but I already took my second class and I’m signed up for my third. This is something I’ve been wanting to do for years.
- Visited Flushing with my friends. Tried a Chinese scalp treatment and ate a lot of food. The treatment was just a fun experience, but the food was so good.
- Had lunch with a friend for the first time in 6 months and was introduced to the coconut latte. Excellent stuff.
- Volunteered at Brooklyn Bridge Park. Got so many bug bites. Also got the itch (get it?) to volunteer more.
- Ran a race in Central Park. I absolutely will not be running in the sun for the foreseeable future. I will, however, be trying to run more again because my fitness is definitely down.
- Finally started working on a personal project.
- Started hanging out with myself again. I did things solo all the time when I lived in San Francisco. I haven’t done as much of it here, partially because I had my brother and some friends here already. It’s been really good for me to be back at it.
I’m still kind of stressed and whelmed (didn’t know this was a real word, but very apt), but I’m also feeling very fulfilled. So things are pretty good right now 🙂
