I could have sworn that I already had a page open. I guess I am more keen on writing right now because I can't see anything right now. I mean I do have all these great ideas for art and such but half of my stuff is still packed in the suitcase and the other is sprawled out on the floor.

I just don't want ot waste my time moving around too much if it means just messing everything up right now.

Ah yea, I had a nosebleed a bit ago. I feel like my grandma is pulling on me. I feel like she is a blood witch or something. I mean, I used to be able to channel a bit in my drawings too I noticed. It didn't really reveal itself until way afterwards though. Writing was always quicker for me. But I really did enjoy the whole process of art.

I know after this I will probably put some WIP pieces in my portfolio into some sort of list for me to work on it. I am a bit scared if I am honest because, id on't know if it would even make sense for me to do this but, I mean now i am speaking future tense so, it's a plan for the future as it were.

I don't really know who to reference or who to collab with. I am lost on most things, that is why I just write an eternal soliloquy to sort of just, allow myself to sort myself out.

I have this piece of paper in front of me about Angel Investing. I don't know if that is a banking thing or a financial analyst but I am hoping they can point me in the right direction. I also want to know the bank's own opinion of itself as a holder of business accounts, and what sort of benefits they provide.

I am sort of at a lost to how Angel investors, Scholarships, and Grants work really but, I mean it feels like it is worth the time to figure out. I really bombed on the 25k bank one. But it basically was asking you to take another class on a subject just to get the money. Also there was a cooldown time if you got too many wrong.

I am still looking at the Art Instagram task and I am like... what the hell? Should I just pass on it for now? I mean there is really no point to anything right now since I have extra time. I have to wait to buy the contacts, and the box of dye... Well I could technically buy it on amazon or something but, I am at my work computer now so I am not wanting to switch over to another computer right now just to do it. Yes, so perhaps you should just keep the one computer on you. This is a nice one.

Yea the tums really worked right now, I am almost like 85% better now.

I do have this persistent tingling sensation on my tongue which I am not sure of the cause, but I am hoping it is just stress manifesting itself it strange ways. I am pretty happy with the progress I am making, this is good but, I feel like I need to draw something... to put on my Instagram...

I ended up putting one of my open dream drawings. I also just woke up now so, so much for that time. But I do feel very rested so that is good. Today is starting out great.
