From my spam IG: “Are You Winning Daughter?” 2021 vs 2024

The one on the left was made when I was a Junior in undergrad in 2021.

The one on the right was made in January of this year, at the age of 23, a few weeks after my undergrad graduation.

The me on the left was at the peak of her philosophy education, super into a goth music era, somewhat of a soft tankie, and really, really, really into sci-fi. It was my intention at the time to try to do philosophy grad school. I haven’t completely ruled that out, but for now I’m spending time working in my other field, which is media.

I’m glad things are different now because GOD I’m glad I didn’t fall down the whole Red Scare Tradcath convert thing, because I really think if certain things hadn’t happened as a wake up call the edge lord in me could’ve taken over. Sometimes, with intense weird online leftists, I think what you really need is to like… work a normal job.

Anyway I’m working in radio and audio now and I’m vibing. 2024 me I think is veering away from this highly romantic view of things I used to have. I think I used to be really concerned with being perceived as a philosopher or goth girl or an artist or whatever else and now I just like… wanna do the work, man.

Now I think my interests are less aligned with fitting into any one aesthetic or anything like that, and more aligned with whatever I naturally like and I’m interested in.

It’s fun to make things like this that let me see the visual changes that have come with my personal changes. Maybe I’ll make another one in another two years.

Slow Progress

back in the gym consistently 4 the first time in years. I had been really opposed 2 it 4 a while, it was really hard to find time and energy for it when I was still in my undergrad program. But it’s been about 6 months since I graduated now and I’m adjusting to that transition and I’m actually realizing, I like working out!

I’ve been trying to do just like 30 minutes on the treadmill everyday, but it’s also fine if I miss a day or two. I think working out with focus issues can be hard, so I keep myself focused by turning the incline up once every minute, then when it caps out at 15, I turn it down once a minute. It’s like I’m going over a big hill.

I don’t know how much you can see the changes between the two pictures here, but doing this routine has already made me feel a lot more muscular not only in my legs, but my stomach as well. It’s doing wonders for my blood sugar too!
