Guess Who's Back

*Insert Slim Shady reference*

Well hello there!

It's been a while, and let me just rip that band aid off and tell you why. I was simply depressed and only had the energy to complain about it on Twitter. But now we're in better spirits, and are ready to write blogs that no one reads. How fun!

So let's catch up, what have you been up to? If your past 3 months have been anything like mine, it was a movie! *cringe*

In March I hit my lowest point. Even though nothing seriously traumatic was happening, I was extremely sad with where I was in life, and felt there was no way to change anything.

I was stuck at a toxic job. When I say toxic, I'm talking "dating the fraternity president that gaslights you into going to therapy, claiming your accusations of him cheating are you projecting your life's frustrations on your relationship, when in fact he was cheating" toxic. The office environment and the company as a whole should've just be thrown away, in my opinion. I had a hefty commute to endure to get to this dead end job, and I began to watch myself have anxiety attacks almost everyday on the ride to work. I would cry myself to sleep almost every night as well. But what's the worst thing that happened during my depression? I became a simp.

Eventually things got better though. Let me list out my journey to "happiness":

• My depression made me not want to leave the house. Because of this, my social life was practically nonexistent and my savings account is BEAMING. Look at me now, having enough saved to have investments. My financial advisor (my dad) is so proud.

• I became more invested in the Cheapie life. Cheapie Fridays hit a little differently now, but scrolling through Twitter when my anxiety kicks and seeing some random ass meal or debate the Cheapies are having makes things better.

• I came to terms with the fact that me working at my dream company wasn't going to happen. The effort I put into attempting to get noticed was ultimately contributing to my depression and it was time to let go.

• Once I did let go, I was able to continue applying for other jobs, but with a clear head. I landed a new job within 2 months, at a MUCH better company (than my old job).

• My new job is remote, so I have more time in my day and have been working out. Which came in handy when it was time for bikini pictures on my trip to California.

• My new job gave me a nice pay increase, so now I'll be moving out of my parent's house. If you're confused on how I ended up back at my parent's house: See this

• It's unfortunate to have to type this one out, but acceptance is the first step, right? I've become a simp. I crush so easily now, and am considering going on *gags* dating apps when I move out. I don't want a man, but I want a man, ya know?

• I turned 28, and nothing feels different, so we'll see.

Being that my mind is in a better place now (anxiety is still fucking terrible, but we'll deal), I'm hoping to get around to posting more on here. I'll try to keep the middle school girl diary vibes down to a minimum, and write posts more topic based.

If you read that whole thing, I salute you.

Here's to a new chapter *holds up vodka iced tea*

Thanks for being here! (On this blog, and this planet)
