Great Friday!

Happy Friday!! I know I’ve been extra doom and gloom lately (maybe I was channeling storm Eunice) but I’m glad to say that I feel a lot better today. This weekend is already off to a good start because I had dance class this evening and it was just the pick-me-up I needed. The class was very full and there were quite a few new faces, too. We learned the first part of some choreography to Demi Lovato’s “Sorry Not Sorry” and it was so much fun. It really helps when you know the song you’re learning choreography for, and this song is just a true bop in its own right. Sometimes when I’m going through some mental health stuff it’s incredibly difficult to convince myself to get out of the house or even socialise with anyone so I’m really glad I was able to go!

Another great thing that I did today was book tickets for me and Alex to see BTS’ live concert viewing. And before you get your hopes up that we’ll actually be seeing BTS live live, we’re just going to the cinema at eight in the morning to see the concert broadcast live from Seoul. Still, it’s exciting! I’ve seen the Permission to Dance concert two times already (the first one was livestreamed from Seoul, and the second one was livestreamed from the final day of PTD LA) but I’m still so pumped to see them perform!! It’s going to be so weird seeing the show in a movie theatre at such an early time. I wonder what I’ll wear!!

The rest of the weekend is going to be a good mix of busy and chill, I think. Tomorrow I want to head to the studio to check on the silicone moulds, as well as tidying up all of the mess I’ve made recently. Apart from that, I’d like to go to the shops and get some things for a friend who just bought their first house. Sunday I’ve got dance team practice which I’m expecting will occupy my time pretty much all day. I find that I often overexert myself in social situations by being super extroverted, and then the moment I come home my energy levels take a nosedive. It’s taxing but it’s kind of the way I pump myself up, if that makes sense? Like, it’s sort of like acting and I’m putting on this character (who just so happens to be myself, albeit a version of myself that I am maybe one percent of the time) and while I’m in the moment I don’t have to think about my own burdens because the character I’m playing is free of life’s Big Worries™.

Anyway, that’s all I’ve got for this Friday night. See ya!
