Word of the day: 脳みそ
noumiso - brain, head, noggin
I want to write about a few things but I am also not really wanting to say all the things that has been going on right now. Getting older means keeping some secrets in order to get by and I am fall into a pit of them as we speak.
I am saving up my money for the apartment, I have almost enough to get out but I need one more month to make it complete. The stress of having to be super frugal is getting to me, but I am just thinking that if I do go through the medical coding and succeed, then I can get a good amount of money by being a hermit entering paperwork which would be an optimal thing.
I just got done watching Fern Gully again. I was crying about the grandma fairy sort of evaporating away. I sort of find my life really boring.
I almost feel not like saying this but it is the truth and if I can't say the truth here, then I will probably explode in my normal life.
I am getting more subscribers on my medium account but I need to figure out how to I'll handle Medium. I feel like I need to make actual articles there while writing here on vocal feels more like just a diary.
Apparently I am going to study for medical coding and get an everyday job. I wonder if I should apply to places now but I am facing some technological problems with my computer and find myself having to navigate lessened connectivity; my computer can't handle much in terms of streaming.
I have been reduced to viewer on Twitch, Which I find sort of funny because I was doing so well before. But I guess that's the thing, fame or popularity is fleeting. I am fond of writing as a way to get my head straightened out. I sometimes feel I am losing track of reality when I am high and since I don't have an outlet other than that, it is my work for now until I can work again.
LOL that is pretty funny to put it that way, basically living to work... I guess if that's the case, the job should not matter since we have to do something to help society propel something. Keep the wheel turning, I guess.
I recently got some swelling on my eye and I am wondering if it is an allergy to something. I have been sneezing and sneezing, it probably is affecting my eyes now.
I guess this is hayfever? I don't think I ever had a full hayfever. When I was little, it went straight to my ears. Since I wear headphones all the time, it hasn't been like that.
I have plenty of money to do something fun with it but I am trying to be a good girl.
My new Todo list is very useful but I am trying to keep tasks from bleeding over unto the next day.
I was trying to keep the new Todo list for strictly cleaning and chores around the house and things I have to do like making phone calls and stuff like that but it has slowly turned into notebook, and online tasks.
I mean not strictly but the fact that I don't have a simple list like this for daily digital things, I sort of am utilizing the leftover spaces for that.
Filling out the sheet makes me feel like I have accomplished something in the day. I do have X rather than Checks for things my mom ends up doing or when I decide to push it to the next day but, at least I can say I am not overdoing it if I leave it to 1 page a day.
Perhaps it can be used for multiple things

Awe good luck love♦️💙♦️
Oh I get that. Speaking our truth, somehow keeps things together, so to speak. I too, jump back and forth from thinking that my life is boring. ...So reading this makes me feel like we are all in the same boat, somewhat. Not that that's a good thing, of course, but it helps. Trying to be a good girl and being a good girl is always the better option on paper... But is it though 😈 lol. This was nice to read while I'm here braiding my hair. Thank you for sharing yourself with us, I hope all that you set out to do goes well for you. Even if it includes being a hermit for a bit, congratulations on your new subs on Medium 👏🏾
nice
Nice one, i lived in japan and def heard the expression. I don't really want to think my brain is filled with miso haha. Social media is confusing, best to just have fun with it. Simple videos of our hamster gets a 1000x more views than my thoughtfully written fiction that i spent weeks on.
Sending good vibes your way and that things work out in the end!
You've got a lot going on! Saving for an apartment while being super frugal is tough. Medical coding sounds like a good plan for better pay. I've been in similar financial tight spots. Figuring out Medium and handling less computer connectivity can be a pain. I've had tech issues too. And writing as an outlet makes sense. Do you think you'll be able to focus on medical coding studies with all these distractions? How will you balance it all?
