Here’s my attempt of getting over the overthinking ive done trying to make this first blog post. 

I definetly overthink everything and that does indeed stops me from accomplishing things.  It also has to do with the fact that there are so many things I could talk about that I’m having trouble picking.

I think I’ll introduce myself to begin with though. 

Hi, i’m spideynate. I have been thinking of going through a rebrand lately. I suck at coming up with online pseudos. The one I used during hs was “oreoskillmermaids”. I liked oreos and mermaids. Big mermaid truther over here. 

Currently in the 2nd year of my second program. I studied Graphic Design and I’ve been struggling finding a position that I align with so I pivoted and now im doing Interactive Media Design. Very broad but i've been feeling more and more that this program is exactly where I need to be right now.

I do want to pursue my masters once I’m done this program. Hopefully in 2 years i’ll know what exactly i’ll study as my masters. I found out last year during my first semester, one of my profs told me how i have what it takes/knowledge to pursue a Masters. When I think of people pursuing their masters I think of my aunt that graduated her masters in nursing, my dad with a masters in theology and I didn’t feel like that was something id be up to par with. After some research and some more overthinking (lol) I thought it would be better if I stayed in my program while I figure what my expertise will be.

Life other then school and trying to figure out my “path”  is just ingesting media, hanging out with friends (ocassionally) and surviving with my substance abuse. Some highlights this week though, Spider-Man MTG prerelease is happening which means I get to line up of for cards. Admitetly the nerdiest thing I've done so far in this lifetime.

Also finally getting more tattoos :)) It's been a year since my last tattoo and these past couple weeks i've been fiending for some change. I always find getting tattoos to be relaxing even though I am afraid of needles. Something about that feeling lowkey relaxes my nervous system + I get to turn myself into an irl art gallery.

Writing this was easier then doing my readings for my classes though.
Till next time. o7
