Right now I am listening to a weird video with 3 orange cats and the numbers 333 on the screen. They are sort of neon and glowing.

I unfortunately missed my meeting with my teacher because I just slept most of today. I got a message from both Jahon and Eric. Eric, a dude I blocked, reached out to me on Facebook. I was mortified but I texted him for god knows why. I am just sort of relying on my timer system to get by at this moment, but I am falling way behind.

I am not worried about the mess of paperwork on the floor, I am pretty hungry but... I am pretty sure I ate the rest of the hamburger I had earlier.

I am actually sort of enjoying this exact moment I am having, the sounds from the tv are mimicking a bon fire on the beach.

They are fire cats~

Ah I guess the world is appearing this way because I want to be centered. I remember that Victor was also a thing. He was 25.... OMG would Victor and Eric fight each other? No, I doubt that...

I am remembering the popcorn.... I think there isn't going to be much to do really.

I am probably only writing this to earn like 10 more minutes? I have a raging headache right now and I am debating whether I should take acetametaphine. If I am super anything

Ok what do you want now?

I want my stone bitch. Where the fuck is my labradorite? I am wanting to lay down but I'll probably just be in input mode rather than output so I am fighting that urge.

I woke up 22 minutes late. I am so pissed. Since I didn't take out my computer, I don't have to worry about packing my backpack. I dislike where I live and it is dragging me down. I know Eric is sort of offering me " something " but, I feel like it is too odd.

Yea, I mean, I dunno if we could just be roommates if he's giving me rides and shit, but it might be easier to live closer to Salem.

I'm happy right now. Or I guess I have energy which is good. I'm still missing my stone.

Yea, I am playing Pixie Road in the wrong place. I don't know where to go though with it. I also feel like it is, against the rules I just made up for myself. I guess I need to just stick to my Todo list.

Wahhhh ASMR on Youtube. I am so happy, I mean I guess I am just trying to soothe my headache right now.

Oh ok. Well I am thinking about Mantis now.

Yea I guess some weird spirit was talking to me, but I am in control now. I have 2 hours until school starts.

I have been reading my ogham book, figuring out the Faeda and ForFaeda. The different branches of the letters. Forfaeda is basically the loan letters to allow for foreign sounds on our stones. Yes, carving into stones. I can't find my labradorite though. I had it in the bed, then... bruh. I am just trying to get ready and I have to keep writing because, well... ugh yea I didn't allow any sort of channeling in this moment, barely allowed an insect in.

But I am scared about what I need to do right now. My headache is almost gone but it is harder to get ready because my body is relaxing.

Key just said, " Murderer " in his interview I was watching.
