In-Person College as a Mentally Ill, Disabled Woman
Week 1 I've been in college for about 3 semesters now. All of which have been completely online except for my ASL (American Sign Language) class over the summer. They've gone well. I'd gotten mostly As and Bs, one C (cause I switched majors and just decided not to do the final project, also I was in a mental institution), one F (due to a mental health crisis and an uncooperative teacher), so I'd say I'm doing pretty well so far.

A Coloring Book Saved My Life.
In 2016, somebody gave me a coloring book for Christmas. It was an “adult coloring book,” per the centrally-placed text on its front cover; and allegedly, its purpose was to inspire the colorer. Well, I was an inspiration-seeking adult in 2016, so I gave it a good, cursory glance. To my relative unsurprise, I was not overcome with a sense of enlightenment. In fact, I felt nothing—not even an urge to fill in its blank pages with color. So, I chucked it, along with equally undesirable Christmas gifts, into a flat-rate box bound for oblivion.
