yeah so much for blogging regularly

Hello.

I'm still alive. Kind of.

After the good final stretch of the year in 2020, 2021 kind of started as a bit of a shit show for me.

I got sick - just a cold but right now that leads into a death spiral of OMG DO I HAVE CORONA, so that was terrible for my mental health. As if that wasn't enough, going to the hospital and getting checked out just in case revealed that I might have effed up my health after all.

So I've been in and out of the clinic, getting tests done and paying a whole lot of money but hey health.

Going to have some more results and more tests at the end of the month (pretty much in exactly a week).

All in all, I kind of need to get serious about some stuff in my life now and it's... hard considering my job situation and everything, even though work is really supportive and considerate and if I really, really need to do stuff, they will try to help me so yay. Also my current assignment is pretty great so I know it's a bit shitty to hope but if things continue as they are right now, maybe I can stay in this position a bit longer. A few months might be nice. Great people, great commute, decent schedule...

To be honest, I have been tempted again to give up my current position to take up a permanent position again but then I keep telling myself that "I worked so hard to get where I am now" so... yeah. Well.

Anyway.

Things have been weird. Things have been chaotic. I am maybe possibly okay. Will keep you posted.

    :< praying for the best bb regarding your health checks... but I'm glad that at least your work situation is pretty good now and it does seem (since the incidents last year) that you're getting support and understanding <3

Knowledge is power (aka Wissen ist Macht)

Some of you might be wondering why my blog title is what it is and to be honest, I don't remember who exactly gave me that nickname but it was before I got my teaching certificate at some point... People were telling me I was like Wikipedia, just in human form. I had a lot of knowledge, sometimes random or useless knowledge, sometimes useful. It's always been a thing for me, to accumulate knowledge, to try and keep myself informed. Some people saw it as showing off (aka "Klugscheisser" in German) and others appreciated it. (This post contains thoughts on mental health issues. If that's something you might not want to read, please do not continue beyond this point).

quo vadis - where will the road lead you

People always say that life is easier when you have a goal to work towards. I don't think this is wrong but at the same time, I also don't think it is completely true. In a way. Like, I honestly can't say that I have a real goal in life right now. I have little stepping stones, milestones but the road that lies ahead leads into the unknown (okay sorry if you got the song stuck in your head now). None of the 'typical' goals really appeal or apply to me: getting married (muh), starting a family (meh), buying a house (mmh), having a lot of money (pfft), get a job you like (yaah)... On some days, it's hard to keep going, knowing that you're just...walking further and further into a sheer endless expanse of NOTHING and on other days, it feels like you're free. Weird, isn't it?

Okay, I give in, here's a blog - Kira Life Update

Okay, so Blogtober 2.0, if you will? Or if I'm allowed to do that lol I noticed that blogging about fandom related stuff only is hard and maybe not all that interesting for people, so I decided to make a more personal blog after all. And after interacting with Pippa on her blog, I found that THAT was what I do miss from LJ and so yeah, here goes. This first entry is an update on what's been happening in my life - in a nutshell. For the future, prepare for a bunch of random stuff, rants and what not. I will most likely be talking about: life and work fandom stuff stuff that is on my mind living in Japan food More specific fandom stuff will still be on the other blog but fandoms not covered by that (yeah yeah I have too many fandoms, I know) will be on this one.
