Ramblings into the void
How has your day been?

Hello again friends! It’s so nice to know you’re back here again with me for another short chat! I hope you’ve been good to yourself because you deserve to be good to yourself, if not you then who?
So to update on the last journal entry I’ve already begun working on the next photo zine using my Polaroid and this time it’s with green film! I am so excited about it even if it takes a while to come to fruition because I’m putting my all into this.
Another update is that I have now made a SpaceHey which is another social media. I started to feel so let down by the state of popular social media that I searched out an alternative for myself and I think I found a home there. Let me know if you join, we can be friends!

Now that the housekeeping is out of the way I want to start with saying I know I said I’d be more active online (on Instagram) and I had every intention of doing it but as you know that wasn’t the case. I am going through a sort of stasis within at the moment and its stunting my creative movements but the last month has brought me new opportunities to be excited about through the use of SpaceHey and Neocities.
I really think that going back to a more fun filled side of the internet has helped to bring out my creativity, I want to learn all these new skills and then put them into practice by creating the most mediocre website you’ve probably ever seen but it’ll be my own slice of the internet to create with as I see fit!
I think I’m just becoming burned out and have been burning at both ends for a while now in terms of my creative output. I feel I expressed this in previous entries so I wont go into it again but I am sick of feeling like every move I make online is a business move and I only make the wrong ones. I want to express myself as I am and not have to worry about the fact that future decisions are impacted by current output.
I have often thought about making an anonymous account and going down that route but it seems like such a drastic option when all I wanna do is share my art with my friends.
That’s what I’m gonna be doing! I’m gonna start posting just whatever anyway because I can no longer take Instagram serious.
I know this went on quite a bit and I got a bit doom and gloom but I hope that this is more of a positive post than not! I want to see some of you on SpaceHey or other areas of the Internet that aren’t just IG and TikTok.
