42. Sleep.

Had quite a long day today and it's only Monday. Owwww. It's not all bad though, I've been doing so much drawing at work lately, it's been really enjoyable too which is nice. Here is a sleepy photo of me, I think it's time for bed!

So pleased with my tattoo as well at the moment, I can't help but keep showing it off.

Goodnight

Well today I finally got my day of the dead tattoo finished and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I was a bit anxious this morning because I know the area getting closer to my hip had been quite sore before, but to my surprise I actually managed to relax and it was the easiest sitting I'd done. I got a bit of touching...

37. Museums and Advent Calendars

Today I got to visit the Natural History Museum in Oxfordshire with my uni, not so much for the exhibits but to get to look at its refurbishment. I found it super interesting and we got to go up on to its amazing glass roof which was quite cool. Definitely feeling a bit inspired, I think Im going to make a list of all my...

@sintara I'm glad I'm not the only twenty something year old who still buys them!

You don't have to be 'macho' to be attractive. It's fine to be cute!

Well I finished my essay yesterday and it seems ok, I've finished on time most importantly. I should feel good about this but I don't. I didn't exactly do well when I was at uni before and I desperately want to do better this time. I've felt a bit down today, I haven't seen any of my friends in a while and that's a bit...

32. Essays, Albums and Dates.

It's the weekend but It probably won't be a very exciting one, I got the date wrong on when my essay is due in so I'm having to work like mad to get it finished for next week. However, saying this I actually went on a date last night for the first time in ages and I think it went well, she's really sweet. I...

I'm not sure, like its only a goodbye hug kind of thing? I don't want to make a big deal out of it, I'll just make sure I hug her next time.

30. 9 out of 10 times

So it's done again for another week, time to breath. 9 out of 10 times I end up worrying myself about nothing, it's just so illogical but I can't help it.

It's been such a tiring day too, with so much travelling, I hate leaving the house when it's dark and getting back when it's dark, it's kind of depressing. I really miss Summer :...

29. Anxiety

0

So it's Tuesday night and I'm at uni tomorrow. I always find Tuesday nights hard, especially this week having been sick last week. So it makes tomorrow even more daunting in my head.

I've always found it hard to talk about my anxiety, I've certainly never blogged about it either. Having always thought people wouldn't understand it, mainly because for a long time I didn't...

I've dealth with depression myself this year and have social anxiety so I kind of know how you feel. I was advised by a friend who had tried hypnotherapy with good results, to help me but never go round to it - after reading this I think it might be the best way to go. You sound like you're on the right track , so good for you :)
ttaylorr:
Thanks @mimiko your kind of comment is the reason I decided to blog about it all. I would recommend trying it,        It has really helped me personally but I think different methods work for different people. I know depression and anxiety seem to go hand in hand as I've found in the past one seems to feed the other, it's really difficult. Especially social anxiety there's nothing worse then having to live with that constant feeling of dread. I ve also tried different medication in the past and would recommend talking to your GP as well if you haven't already, again I think different meds work better for some than others. I wish you all the best with overcoming your anxiety, if you ever want to talk about it  please message me, I don't really know many other people who suffer from it. X

So today I had the second session on my day of the dead girl tattoo and it was actually a bit easier than the first one. I'm not sure if it's because it was mostly shading instead of line work or whether it was because I managed to relax a bit more this time, but it wasn't as bad. I just about managed my 1...

So were almost at the end of the working week now and I'm looking forward to getting my dotd girl finished on Saturday.

I'd like to say how much I'm enjoying the site, everyone is really nice and I've spoken with a few really interesting people. Definitely feel like this is somewhere where I can fit in.

Anyway this is just a short blog tonight,

ok so at the end of my 4 day weekend now, really enjoyed having a bit off a break from work.

Friday I got a start done on my pin up, day of the dead tattoo which I'm loving and on Sunday went to a comic book convention. I met Lew Temple (Axel) from walking dead who signed one of my comics and I got...
