  1. I really need to get out of here. I'm going crazy. I honestly don't know how I'm putting up with living the way I am. I'm feeling better on the inside but everything around me isn't going to get better.

  3. So I guess I should talk about my current living situation. My parents are getting ready to retire somewhat soon, so they sold the house earlier this year and moved into an apartment since the other apartment was being renovated. Since it's still being renovated, they'll be moving somewhere else in a few months. I used to have my own room (for the most part), but now I'm sharing a very small room with my severely autistic younger brother. I barely have space for any of my stuff, I no longer have a desk, and don't have any privacy to myself. I have been living this way for the last few months and I hate living like this.

  5. What I really want to do is work in the museum field, since that's what I went to school for and have most of my experience in. Right now my only way of supporting myself is a food delivery job that I have been doing for much longer than I planned. At least I've been putting money aside every week into a bank account. It's a dead end job that I've held for the last 13 months and I feel so ready to move on. During the day I volunteer at museums since I am struggling to find a paying job at one in my area. Problem is that volunteering has mostly been a dead end too.

  7. I'm convinced that I need to find some sort of a museum job somewhere, it doesn't matter what it is, and move out there. I don't care if it's a part-time job, I could just move out there, and then find other work. That's actually the sort of advice I've been getting from career services at the college I went to, so I feel confident about doing this. Trying to find full-time work in what I want to do hasn't been getting anywhere in the last few months, so I should really go with this. I get a part time job, I move there, and I have several options for other work. I could find another museum job, work in a gallery, find another delivery job, or something else I don't know. But it has to be better than where I am.

  9. The sooner I can do this, the sooner I can move out of Florida and to another part of the country because there is nothing for me here. I would be so happy to have my own living space again and it would put me in a much better place.
  10.  
  11. I know I haven't been able to stream much or do a lot of work on speedrunning, but I'm busy trying to put my life forward.

  13. I'm still planning on attending AGDQ either way. I'm not giving that up.
