Deep into this weeks-long isolation, Bwog tries out some new hobbies, some of them cooler than others.
Bwog found some new hobbies:
- Picked up my old bow and tried archery for the first time in ages
- It took me an hour to hit the dog toy I had set up as a target
- When I finally did hit it the arrow just bounced right off. F
- It took me an hour to hit the dog toy I had set up as a target
- Developed an obsession with Fiona Apple
- Wrote. A LOT. For school and for fun!
- I’m such a scholar…
- Stayed up until 2 am with my sister playing The Sims and screaming to Sam’s Town by The Killers
- Sent 80 emails because of Bwog
- Shaved my dad’s head
- Felt So Much Power
- Tried to convince my family that oat milk is the best milk alternative…
- They didn’t agree :(
- Finished Schitt’s Creek and The Good Place and I don’t think I’ll ever be okay again???
- Sunbathed on the balcony
- Forgot to put on sunscreen…
Bwog really went through it:
- Accidentally bought one and a half liters of gin
- Wore a Smurf-themed mask while picking up a prescription
- Ran into someone I knew, because of course I did (#smalltownlife)
- Listened to “If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know)” by The 1975
- Felt all the serotonin in my body return from the war
-
Slept through my psychiatrist appointment
- Thought long and hard about shaving my head…
- I’m probably not going to do it…
- Maybe…
- Pulled an all-nighter and completely fixed my sleep schedule! 11 pm bedtime babe
- Got emo at seeing “Hope Is The Thing With Feathers” written out on the sidewalk in front of my neighbor’s house
- Drank nothing but orange juice, black coffee, and English Breakfast tea
- Ate a tamale
- Remembered that there are some good things about being home
Bwog was actually pretty good at maintaining a social life:
- Made friends with the neighbor’s cat!
- We slow blink at each other! I love them!
-
Got a tour of my best buddy’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons town!
- Spent most of my Saturday Zooming my two friends!
- Realized how much I missed them and that I need to check up on the gang more often
- Celebrated four birthdays in three days
- Spent six hours straight on Zoom hanging out with different friends
- Completely filled my need for socialization
- Talked to my dad for a really long time
- Realized how weird it is to be an adult
- Watched Fleabag with my 62-year-old father
- Went to my best friend’s house to collect the zucchini bread she made for me :’)
- (By house I mean six feet away from her front door because we are ladies who social distance)
