Hi ev, how are you doing these days? How's life treating you? For me, life suddenly got so busy so I am feeling kinda overwhelmed. It's been two months at my new job now . Work is work but I am trying new hobbies, recently starting sketching . I'm shit at it but it like it. Also I have a crush at someone from work. He kinda reminds me of you. He is sweet and cute, doesn't talk shit about others. He also has very pretty eyes. And the thought of seeing him once a day makes the work bearable. The sight of his back fills me up with warthm in these cold winter days.
Anyways how's your significant other doing? Are they doing well ?
Btw I am the anon who once sent you a rant that my life sucks , my new job sucks , and how you soothe me , etc ...
Are you enjoying the weather nowadays? Here winter is slowly creeping round the corners asking me to bundle myself up in a blanket and not leave my room. What else, oh yeah I am learning to cook and I am kinda pretty good . If I ever met you in real life (i know i will , my intuition game is pretty strong) , i will cook your favorite food for you .
Anyways bye i am going home now , enjoy your Christmas holidays with your loved ones and when life runs too fast for you just le down on the floor and start making random noises( it works for me, I am the weirdest person I know ) . Oh and keep on writing things that make me want to scream with excitement. Eagerly waiting for Insight. I also want to write things like you but I am not just good with words .
Anyways bye bye take care good night/day .Eat whatever you suggested me to eat last time.

so nice to hear back from you! i can relate heavily to feeling overwhelmed, i’ve been very busy too. i am familiar with my job and know what i’m doing (most of the time) but this fall introduced some new challenges and responsibilities that i wasn’t entirely prepared for. so, i’ve been working very long days and losing sleep over work on occasion, worried about my own abilities to stay on top of my tasks. it has been like that for me, too ❤️‍🩹

but having a crush is so cute! it is such a delicate yet precious feeling, so i hope that it can bring many exciting moments to your work days. is he single? have you thought about approaching him? or are you not supposed to date your colleagues? my s.o. is doing well, we are awaiting the annual cancer check-up, but so far, no new symptoms have appeared. who knows, maybe we are in the clear...? 🙏

i would honestly love it if you cooked for me, because i am terrible in the kitchen 😭 currently waiting for boo to come downstairs so that we can cook together because if it’s just myself, it’s cheese, wine, and bread. winter is arriving here too, and the nights are below zero. today i rummaged through the closet for my candles and untangled my christmas lights. soon, soon.

the next chapter of insight is finished, my beta readers just need to clear it first. but it’s coming 💜 please enjoy the cozy season and try every possible hobby! it is never about whether you’re good, but rather, learning something new and having a great time. write something, too! you never know ✍️
