@24Help1 aww cute and me too and i love dogs
@24Help1
you should learn Chinese! It is such a fun language to learn. 我爱 ❤️
@BandNerd100201
I should! I 100% had to translate that last part but I'll send it right back at ya 我爱
1. what do you most look forward to about spring and why
Hearing the birds chirp and watching life come back.

Taking my meds. I hate taking them even though I know I need them.

I'm okay, I'm stressed about making phone calls but I know it needs to be done.
I really like that picture of the flowers!
@Goldcherry2113
aww me too spring is exciting as a season for sure
ah yes i highly understand that one
ooo what sorts of myths would you be around
great job on finding a daily routine
this one is very frustrating i understand the feeling trying to get on something similar in the uk personal independence pasyment made claim last march and im in the appeals process atm its taking ages fingers crossed you get what you need keep chin up i know its tough but youll get there
did you get round to the phone calls i know it can be stressful hugs if youd like one
thankyou i wanted to pick the best one for spring starting
1. Warm weather because I'm cold all the time. more sunlight because it lifts my mood, inspires me to connect with the earth, practice gratitude for it and the earth
2. Rumination / overthinking. Not exactly a planned part of my daily routine but manages to show up everyday. It's just... draining to be thinking about something - usually negative - so much. Especially if it's a problem with solutions, I don't need to keep thinking of the problem that has already been solved, brain.
3. Hm.. graphic design, cooking, meditation, knowing my own mind and body - any of those
4. I feel really nice after an awful day yesterday
5. I feel laziness or perhaps a lack of motivation is setting in for me
6. Intense explosion of something building within me. No idea what, just something itching to get out, boiling over the edge. I feel it deeply
@Lexloveslife
aww same cold weather deeply sux doesnt it aww glad that the sunlifhjt helps lift mood and inspires you
its understandable why you included this one though it may not be a direct daily routine but it does as you say creep into it
ooo many of those sound interesting what would you graphic design what kinds of things
glad to hear you felt really nice after the awful day sorry to hear about the awful one too hugs
aww have you been busy lately if so everyone deserves to feel laxy once in a while
hugs hopefully youll figure out what that is the building up feeling
@CaringBrit
Book covers, posters, wallpapers for phones and computers, maybe websites and t-shirts too though I don't have much experience with those
@Lexloveslife oh nice
if i can live forever and never eat to save money
also i want to be an expert in writing so I can write clearly and exactly what I mean. I can have every words i need.
@ShadowTag
I mean if i won't perish by not eating.
@ShadowTag
i know what you mean and understandable it would also help planet as less waste for sure too
aww good choice what writings would you do
1. what do you most look forward to about spring and why
I was born in spring, I look forward to dandellions and bugs, the smell of the earth ground in spring....birds coming back from migrating away...
2. If You Could Eliminate One Thing From Daily Routine, What Would It Be And Why?
I wpuld eliminate my daily routine.
3.If You Can Instantly Become An Expert In Something, What Would It Be?

Creating... is awesome what sorts of creativity
@CaringBrit
Almost my birthday...one month step away😊...Routine is helpful in giving us a sense of security by doing the same things but breaking the routine also helps make you feel alive, be crazy or curious, life becomes to be a bit interesting anf fun...
I would love to be able to create in any domain...

@OldSerendipityBoat thankyou xd
@CaringBrit
I'd love to answer the questions you posted but I cant think I'm trying to relax and I can feel my heart pounding in my chest, I can feel the anxiety, but why??? I dont know.. just wanted to share something when I feel this way, I H.A.L.T
H=hungry
A=angry
L=lonely
T= tired
And if I'm any of those things I pick one and work on it, so I got 45 mins of sleep last night and I'm feeling panicky and like I want to SH. So I'm going to have a nap.
I hope this might help for someone else. As It really does help me.
@CaringBrit
1. I look forward to wearing leather jackets and not changing boots in school.
2. Reaching for phone as a first thing in mornings and reading fanfictions instead of books. Because it makes me werid and tired in mornings.
3. I would like to be an expert in being calm and seeing things as they are not anxiety, also i would like to jugde situations more reasonably.
4. My studies go well right now, because of quarantine i can actually learn things because all day i spend in quiet and calm place where i feel safe, so not in school. That makes me more focused and motivated.
And practicing affirmations oh and my hair stopped falling out
5. What is not going well is my diet i have started to eat unhealthy again so my skin is not good xdd
6. I feel good, peaceful i would say, i work with my self hatred and denial, i feel calm most of the time.
@CaringBrit
1. what do you most look forward to about spring and why
Spring holidays because then my friends will come back here and we will have a must needed reunion.
2. If You Could Eliminate One Thing From Daily Routine, What Would It Be And Why?
Waking up late. I put an alarm but i switch it off daily and wake up late. Idk it makes me haye myself. Idl i just feel annoyed when i wake up late.
3.If You Can Instantly Become An Expert In Something, What Would It Be?
Art. I want to be an brilliant artist. Art brings me peace. Writing, painting, music all of these have something serene about them that makes me happy.
4. one thing going well
Is it wrong to say nothing?
5. one thing not going well
Uhm my diet plans, my mental health, basically everything
6. how are you feeling today
Annoyed. Woke up late so yeah
