Hey guys! It's...been quite a bit since I've posted anything here. I'm hoping to become more active again, though, so the long silence should be finally over!
I've been working on cutting back on my phone usage lately. I uninstalled a ton of apps from it, mainly social medias and games that I don't really play anymore. I don't exactly have the money to afford a true dumphone yet, but I'd love to be able to get to that point. So for now I'm just using my current phone just...really really dumbed down. I think all I have on it right now is Hello Kitty Dream Village (which is on thin ice), Discord (for communicaton), and a couple other utility things. It's really nice, actually. I feel a lot more present in my life now. There's a lot more things I'm paying attention to, and I actually have time to do things more intentionally.
The one thing I am being forced to reckon with, though, is boredom. Good fucking god the boredom. I'm so used to opening my phone and scrolling through things whenever I get bored but now I'm just...bored. I'm getting more into reading because of it, but I might start looking into other hobbies, too. Just so I can have something else to do when reading isn't hitting the right way. Might start looking for other online communities to join, as well so I don't have to deal with the loneliness that comes with that boredom.
Oh! I also got really into Warframe! One of my friends recommended it to me about a month or two ago, and it was such a good one. The story is incredible and the gameplay? Fucking amazing. I love it so much. I could ramble about it for ages but I don't know if people here would worry about getting spoilers lolol. Maybe I'll make a separate post somewhere else and mark it for Warframe spoilers. Highly recommend you check it out if you're remotely curious about it.
