Catching up

Sunday, 26^th of October, 2025

Hello.

I hope you had a great week.

I’m sorry I didn’t write last week, I wasn’t really sure what to say.

But I am delighted to say that I have plenty to say this week.

So, last week I wasn’t feeling so great, there was a lot of emotions in the air, I was a little lost blah blah blah.

Then, for my brother’s birthday we went to this science museum, and it was pretty cool, there was a planetarium there, and a lot of activities to do.

It was really fun.

Then, right at the end, there was a section where you could learn BSL, (British Sign Language) and I learnt my name, and became fascinated.

And that’s the real reason why I didn’t write the blog last week, I spent the next day just learning BSL.

Sometimes I get so obsessed with something, I just can’t let it go, but in this case I think it was a good thing.

It was actually really fun. I really enjoyed it.

And now if I ever run into a deaf person, I can be of some help.

But anyway, this week, so much has changed it’s actually insane.

First, I am off my phone for good.

I’ve been using my flip phone, and only use my smartphone for music in the shower.

That has actually been great, it’s crazy how much I was always reaching for my phone in the beginning.

But now I am doing better, even though, sometimes I don’t know what to do, for example when I’m eating breakfast, I would always be watching something, or reading something,

And sometimes I will still have the urge to look for my phone, and then wonder what I should do while eating breakfast, and then I remember... uhh, maybe I could just do that!

It’s so bizarre.

So yeah, I’ve been been just eating. It’s pretty freeing.

Another great thing that has happened is that I.. I’m so excited for this!

Okay, I was at work, and they said, there’s an opportunity to go and do an internship with the company. There was buying, merchandizing, and design, which is what I’m studying.

And immediately I got super excited because that is what I’m studying.

So I applied for it, and then they gave me a questionnaire to fill out, and it was sort of fun, specially the design part.

And then, they told me to do a video interview...

Which I will do tomorrow.

So that’s exciting!

Also I’ve been doing my morning reading and meditation.

It’s been really great.

I have done this before, where I had a routine in place. I would wake up early in the morning, go to the gym, come back home and read, and eat a healthy breakfast.

But that was back in Cardiff, and before I got really sick.

After that I stopped doing my routine unfortunately.

But now I am trying to get back to a good routine, so I have been doing my morning reading.

The book I am reading now, and that I have read before is called “The Secret”, and it is really good!

It’s very eye opening. And there is a lot to learn from it.

I have like a hundred sticky notes on it.

And speaking of the gym, I just signed up for a gym close to my house.

I wanted to join before, but you used to have to pay a couple of months in advance, but now, you can just pay monthly, which is great, and now they have a autumn sale going on, so I got it for way cheap.

I will be starting from next week.

I think that is everything for today.

I hope you have a great week.

See you next week.

Oh, and happy Halloween.

Love, Dee
