I’m feeling incredibly stressed with midterms, finances, internship apps, and a shit ton of headaches on my plate — and I didn’t have a stress ball, so I scrawled on my iPad for like two minutes straight eyes-closed and it was honestly kinda cathartic. so here is ... spider web ??

It’s a torrential downpour kinda day which I absolute love. 😌 Lol I have a weird obsession with heavy rain. The best way I can describe it is the same way people channel their agitation into a fidget toy so they can be calm in whatever else they’re focusing on, when it’s full on downpour, the energy bottled up inside better reflects the word around me; the tension starts to release and the good vibes start flowin (lol like stress osmosis). 🌊 so here’s 30 seconds to take a pause from ur hectic day and enjoy some mindfulness :))yeee setting up oauth consent :google: (lol ik its not a big deal but for some reason it feels so cool having it redirect like legit webapps)

I’m purposely not showing any of the actual desktop side of this room bc i still have quite a bit of work to clear that space lol :fastparrot:
