Settling. Moved here a few years ago but would like to make more friends. I'm trying to explore new hobbies, especially anything involving art.

Pretty good! I'm hoping to go on more fun little adventures. Or making mundane things into fun little adventures.

Doing creative projects, listening to music, walking outside.
What is most important to you right now?
Connecting with others!
Anything you recently found interesting?
I recently moved closer to the downtown port and get startled when I hear the cruise ships sound their horns! Haha.

Where are you at in your life stage?
Currently funemployed! Took some time to travel, now just building up my life in San Diego and trying to find my favorite spots. Also trying to learn how to swim...but it is harder than I expect every single time.
How's your life?
Saying yes to interesting and scary opportunities has been exciting and fruitful and I'm always interested in improving at things I'm bad at. Nevertheless, life is relentless and every day I am exhausted :)))
What helps you keep your sanity?
Climbing, bachata, and Peep Show
What is most important to you right now?
Establishing a solid friend group in SD and exploring home
Anything you recently found interesting?
I find the concept of dropshipping really fascinating (don't worry I'm not going to do it)

Where are you at in your life stage?
I'm 37, married, working a job I (mostly) like. Made a bunch of changes in my life in the past 4 years that have made a big impact on me. Hoping to make some new connections and enrich life through those.
How's your life?
Not too dramatic. Very average. Work is hectic, trying to fill the days with fun things to do outside of that.
What helps you keep your sanity?
My pets who provide structure in my daily life and provide many funny situations, music and routines.
What is most important to you right now?
Enjoyment. Simply finding enjoyment in day to day life.
Anything you recently found interesting?
How Simon Reynolds manages to humanize John Lydon in his book Rip it Up and Start Again, when the guy is kind of a prick.

Where are you at in your life stage?
Having recently gotten my feet off the ground, I find myself working at the Camp Pendleton Commissary full time, while I handle expenses and figure out what's next in my journey.
At the age of 24, I still have plenty of youth to go around.
How's your life?
I don't see myself working here forever, but I want to take these months day by day, and discovery much that life has to offer. The only issue is finding those in my area to start becoming grounded with.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I play games, watch online twitch streams or videos, and maybe stream myself rarely.
What is most important to you right now?
I want to try new things, and managing such expectations alongside my job means I have to pace myself. I have only so much time in a day, and only a few days a week can I handle my responsibilities. I'm do it right, it just means that I don't have much to go around.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I just tried my first ever rice cooker, and my goodness I could have been a lot more frugal with my meals.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I'm 24 and navigating through the difficulties of my early 20's. I sort of feel like I'm going through a process of rediscovery of how I fit into this world as a young working person. Truthfully, I think I'm right where I'm supposed to be. But that doesn't make this period of my life any easier or less uncertain. I find myself craving more connection and authenticity with others during a time that can feel very isolating.
How's your life?
I would say in a lot of ways my life has turned out really lovely. On paper, I got everything I wanted. I got my dream job as a labor and delivery nurse right out of college, I'm celebrating my 8 year anniversary with my boyfriend this May, I live close to a loving family, and I'm living on my own and learning how to be an adult. But beneath all that, I am struggling in many ways. My job is stressful on many levels and I struggle with work-life balance. My partner and I are dealing with serious doubts and uncertainties about out future together. I feel isolated and want more friendships. I'm scared I'm wasting my 20s because I'm such a homebody. In so many ways, I am incredibly grateful and privileged with how my life turned out and I am happy. But life is hard and I think I need to be better at creating more meaningful connections with others so it feels less like I'm going through it alone.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I'm a hobbies girl! I strongly believe that everyone should have at least one hobby. For me, crafting and art are my bread and butter. I love fiber arts: crocheting and knitting. Something about keeping my hands busy really numbs my brain in all the right ways. Creativity is a huge outlet for me. Drawing, painting, collages, you name it. I also love reading. Fantasy romance is my favorite genre.
What is most important to you right now?
I think what's most important to me right now is security. I just feel like there's a lot of uncertainties about my future which I think is normal and good in some ways. But I do find myself deeply craving a sense of security in myself, my work, and my relationship(s). I think I am the most content when I feel secure and I don't have a lot of question marks about my near future. I'm a big planner and I like it when it feels like those plans are going to pan out without worrying about the rug being pulled out from underneath me.
Anything you recently found interesting?
Something interesting I've been thinking about lately is the ability to learn empathy through reading and works of fiction. I recently read a fantasy series about a young black girl who loses her mom and subsequently gains magical powers (lol). But the books explores complex topics related to grief and racism. I found it so amazing how I was essentially able to put myself in her shoes and experience these things with her. I was able to feel her complex emotions about losing her mom, feeling out of place in a predominantly white school, and a sense of grief about not having access to her family tree/linage due to slavery. These are things I can never fully understand since I have not experienced it myself but after reading this book I have a much deeper sense of empathy and understanding on these topics. I find it really profound how one can learn empathy through art and fiction and I think it's an underrated way to incorporate activism in everyday life.
