Dear Maya,

Today was great, but before I tell you about my day, let me tell you about a struggle I have. 

Anytime I have a cringy moment or a bad moment I link that moment to the object or song that caused it or was present during it. I sung a certain song badly in front of a bunch of people and now I can't listen to that song without feeling really ashamed and being mad ad myself for bassically being myself. I really need to work on it because it is driving me crazy. Anytime I tell someone, people tell me everybody makes mistakes. I know that, but it still makes me want to rip my head off anytime I get a memory like that. I know logically, I shouldn't feel ashamed but my emotions tell me otherwise.

My sister is doing really great now. Since I am her roommate she has been getting better. She smiles more and she even filled in her whole day yesterday. She told me she might get over her depression. I still told her to be carefull. Recovery is not a straight line.

But my day was really good. I do an internship at a retirement home for elderly people with dementia. I took it upon myself to clean out and reorganise drawers and closets around the home. I am an intern so I have more time to do that. Yesterday and today I cleaned two closets in the room of an elderly gentleman who saved all the clutter from his previous house. He was so happy! It really made my day. I am also almost done with my assignments. Only 4 more practical and 1 theoretical assignment and I am done!

That was it. 

Goodnight, don't let the mirrorman bite...
