good feels
>half of mandarake order arrived
>bought meme boob sweater
>dyed hair and got nails done
>hit a few PRs this week (95lbs bench, 1lmaoplaet atg squat)
>made $1.3k last week as opposed to $500ish
>$5.2k savings in bank
>no debt except $200 on credit card
i know that's not a lot for you guys, but i just started saving in late september and don't have a great job. my fiance takes care of rent and most of the groceries (although we eat 80% of our meals at work so not a lot of groceries) while i save. i pay for utilities and some groceries.

bad feels
>back to making less money
>cheap rent but room way too tiny for two people and two medium-large dogs
>can't go to katsucon because valentines day weekend is busiest time of year
>no time to practice drawing
>when time spend it shitposting on /fit/ and /cgl/
>want to open an online store for commissions and custom patches and shirts
>can't because no time and should put money towards savings
>want to post selcas, cosplay, and ootds on tumblr
>afraid to because a couple of people hate me on there and on /cgl/
>participated in a photoshoot where really unflattering pictures were taken
>really don't want those to be found and circulated
>want to overhaul wardrobe and be cute but somehow sexy too
>no idea what that would look like
also
>miss parents a shit ton
>want to move closer to them
>tfw they live in the middle of nowhere with no job opportunities
>ideal city (where i used to live) is 9 hours away from them
