BAD DAY?

man, you know when you have one of those days/weeks/weekends where life is literally taking a huge dump on you? it sucks. so bad. i mean, my life is still fine, but crappy things just kept happening to me this past weekend. is this karma? i know i forgot to floss that one day, but why punish me this bad?

first, i kept messing up at my new job. nothing major, it's just that new person stigma, where you're still learning how things work, so you kind of have to suck before you get better?? anyone? yeah. i mean, my coworkers are SUPER nice and SUPER helpful, but i still get that gut feeling where i think i'm being this huge nuisance. blah, guilt. blah, anxiety.

secondly, the ball of septum ring fell out. this is the second time for this to happen too!!!!! anyone with a septum piercing probably knows how annoying this is. especially because the ball itself is so damn tiny and is impossible to track down. and you can't just buy 1 separate ball for the jewelry, you have to buy the whole damn thing again.

AND finally. not gonna get too into detail, but someone compromised my debit card and drained my account. how annoying :(((( i mean, thank god i wasn't ballin' or anything, but still, it sucks!!!! like please, go find your own money!!!!

i know i was just in fell complaint-mode, but now im going to turn it over to the brighter side of things. instead of being a bum and moping around about my crappy weekend, im going to remember that i have a new day ahead of me where i can make the most of it. start over, and just relax.

here are some things i like to do when im having a shit day/week/weekend!!!

-listen to a playlist of happy songs!!! (here's a little compilation of my favorite "happy" songs that make me feel good and fuzzy.)



- try to bake/cook something!!! food is always an easy way out, but i don't mean to just hit up mcdonald's and stuff your face. find a recipe that will occupy your mind! even if you're not a pro, it's still fun to experience it.

- surround with those that put a smile on your face!! whether that be your family, friends, or partner!!

- make up some drawings, or start a collage. something like journaling can be really soothing and calm me down!!

- WRITE IT OUT!!! this is probably one of my favorite ways to rid myself of the bad day. whatever it might of been that caused a bad day, i find it's really healthy to just physically write it all out, almost like you're ranting to someone. (you can actually talk to someone about it, but sometimes i just need to complain rather than get some feedback from another person, ya know?)
